P-Bandai MG V2 Assault Buster Gundam Ver.Ka - UNBOXING and Review 

I literally just finished building this kit a week ago. It definitely feels like a kit where the whole is less than the sum of its parts. Each limb, weapon, and accessory is at least good, usually great individually. But when it all comes together, the flaws really compound and make it kind of a headache to deal with A couple of things, the big beam cannon attaches to the arm the same way the shield does, the red elbow shield emitter plugs into the down pointing ...block thingy. Also, for the shield, swap which way the handle is attached on the shield, so instead of going behind the hand, it comes in front (dis-assemble it and just flip the handle 180) and that makes that accessory a bit more secure, and less prone to dropping off

The number one kit I wish had a standard release. Quite possibly the coolest looking Gunpla kit ever made.

Glad that there is finally a review of this thing! It's my favorite Gundam of all time, and I've been waiting on building mine until I am confident in my skills to do it justice, got the expansion as well.

I just finished this kit myself the other day. Your review was spot on. It looks great but it is very finicky especially with all of the optional parts attached. You try to fix one, another falls off. The legs & crotch armor fell off constantly for me. I'm glad I got it but I wouldn't want to build it again.

I love these intro/box reveals. They always make me chuckle a bit. This review helped me decide not to get this kit. I was on the fence and knew they changed some thing to help make it better but it seems like it’s not that much better. It looks nice for sure but not worth the hassle for someone like me. If I had time to fix everything I definitely would snag it though.

That is such a cool design!

saw this series no too long ago great start depresed me at the end nice mech desing

Dude the intro is magical 😂

I love the Victory Gundam designs and this kit looks beautiful. Hope down the line Bandai will release more Victory kits. I think I like the V2 with the yellow and the assult being more gold to make it pop more on the kit.

Man I need this thing. I adore the complex, gimmicky transforming things so much.

The cannon does attach into the sheild emitters tho... Looks like somebody didn't follow the manual

I love your reviews

Finally, after tired watch your live buils video for hours

i just finish this late last night, spend 30 mins putting it in this static pose and dont wanna move it anymore haha like you said, looks cool, a pain to play with it.

You can attach the back of the arm to the massive cannon. I have the kit myself and indeed it looks amazing, but I'm afraid to touch it because things will fall off.

As person who loves victory i been wanting to get the ver.ka of all the victory, its one of those kit that is more for display then play

That Magic trick. I laughed ahahaha that is cool!

After more than a year in backorder I finally got this one. It's my last gundam I'm buying. Got 5 HG kits waiting and about 10 MG kits waiting. Only problem is I don't have the space to put them on display :/

This one is so tempting to buy ngl

My biggest complaint about this kit is the head. It's proportionate to the V2 body, but once you put all the armor on it beefs up the body quite a bit and the head looks too small in proportion. Apart from that I thought the build process was really confusing, there were several steps where I felt like I didn't understand what they want me to do. BUT in the end it's one of my favourite kits just because of how awesome it looks!

Ha I've been trying to get ahold of the original kit, and now you go and show me this? Man I wish I wasn't broke.

건담리뷰 너무 잘봤습니다. 저는 마크2 건담을 좋아하는데 마크2 리뷰영상도 있겠죠?? 퇴근하고 집에가서 찾아보겠습니다. ^^

Sad that the posability isn’t there and that some things don’t stat on great, but it looks beautiful.

The V2 Assault Buster HGUC is waiting to be build since month. Now I'm a little bit scared because you say that the Gundam Victory is smaller then common Gundam. Wow...I hope I will not be mad if all those partes are too tiny. I already build (and improved) Gundam F91 in hguc and it was sooooo tiny...

as for the issue of the limited hips and waist articulation I blame them for staying true to how it transforms in the anime as possible which does not translate well into real life which is unlike the ZZ Gundam and the Impulse Gundam.

Lol I was just thinking wether I should get this thing or not so awesome that you have a (awesome) review out now Edit: I already have the normal mg v2 so that's why, but I think I'll get it so I can have v2 Transformed and v2ab in MS mode

i lost the ball joint’s on the hips that connects the leg can you suggest a dffrnt way like diy to fix it

I had just recently watched your review of the HGUC last week without knowing this was coming up. I absolutely love the design but it's a shame it's so finicky. I love reposing my kits every other month or so, so this wouldn't be in that camp. But also, I don't like having plastic hand grenades explode if they hit the ground from an accidental fall. I already have the Unicorn for that...

Thank you, for your awesome video and nice review l✌🤓🔥👏👏👏👏👏👏

My brother got the 1/144 scale kit of this and I've really wanted an mg scale one and now I know there is one, buying it immediately lol. And nope they want 150.00 or more little too much for me.

sry for the noob question I really like the gold color of this kit? izit primer > black base > gold ?

how can i make a diy for the pc 7 part? pr where can i buy?

Soooooo gorgeous

Is it a grenade? Yes. But before it explodes does it make you say "Damn, this is an amazing looking grenade"? Also, yes.

I hope this gets a rg or 2.0 one day

I think you mentioned this in your original review, but it bothers me that there is a gap between the blue and golden pieces of the Core Fighter on the chest.

How does the transformation work in the anime? Does the core fighter connect to one of the flyers and the other flyer is just useless?

fancy kit😎 also parts that using stickers are smoothly fits well too😌👌

What action base are you using?

may nagsesell po ba ng head scrap parts para sa kit na to?

Damn, i bought the expansion parts and gundam separate because it was cheaper. I really wanted that gold plated look, but it should be easy enough to just paint it on.

Have you built that xwing fighter kit in the background yet? Any plan to review it?

A like for that intro reveal alone

i saw the jump cut on the magic trick zack😜

Is this the same kit release back in 2016? Just bundle with the armor and weapon set?

Sorry if I missed it, but are there any shared parts between the Assault & Buster? In other words, I have a standard v2 kit, if I got this kit, could I build both the Assault and the Buster seeing as I have two bodies or are there parts exclusive to this kit which are used in both forms. And either/or situation.

You really do have a lot of P bandai, any interest on the origin pbandais?

The hg version is very rare in macau but I bought it thou

"Get rid of that", always honest opinion makes your review so much interesting! Keep it ur :3

hi ad what MG base did you use in "19:36" thanks

Now we need to stuffed on the wing of light effects on it.... It is a total complete form that can only be put on the display only

It does look great with that shoulder cannon and gold coating tho

Can we see your personal 30 Minute Missions kits only customs?

Dad's magic tricks :D

Transforming mobile suits - spoiling model kits since 1985

I really want to get a v2 gundam, but I think I'll wait until they update it

Hell yeah

Wearing an Emerica t shirt, awesome

I regret not buying that kiy

I think when i get this il customize the waste im gonna make the gundam v not transformable

Stand there an looks cool 😎 that's it

You shoulda seen what mecha gaikotsu did. to his victory ver. Ka

Cool kit, but I prefer more simple Victory. And of course, preparing some glue for many very very very finicky parts 😂

Magic😮😮😮😮😮😮

I really want this kit, where can I bought it ? ( I know it’s P-bandai )

How tall is it ?

I wonder when will we get another godly VerKa kit that can surpass Nu and Sazabi... Maybe never

Wait, it's PBandai?

What!😯You mean its armor? It's not like naturally on it? Well that just kills it for me.

The normal one is a hand granade

Same gold as the MG Hyaku Shiki 2.0?

Not even include the Wings of Light XD

I pre-ordered the Add-on kit and bought a regular V2 and honestly the frame improvements do help with the stability of the kit. My only complaints are that I wish there was a way to attach the shield on the back of the arm instead of the side only, and that even with the cannon plugged into the shield emitters, it's still not a very solid connection. I chocked that up to being my own kit though. Really wish the Assault Buster kit came with better hands. This kit is most definitely a display piece first and foremost, but it really does look fantastic but I dread needing to dust mine off because that cannon is right pain.

I missed buying this one 😭

gunpla magic ! lol

there's a gloss injected version of that kit that looks better in my opinion.

basicaly i hate victory gundam, but i want thia kit so bad

Fucking MAGIC!!!

its a beautiful kit but the price isn´t.... over 100 bucks are way to much for the kit. if it would be cheaper i´d get me one.

Burn stick

V gundam and its variant ver Ka are for display only

This looks better than the original i have to say but i can't grust this kit. The original was my forst dip into mastergrade and it almost put me off gunpla! It qas a giant floppy mess that kept falling to pieces. Mat have just been mine, but still

Its Corona time

First

the show is trash and the kit is not good, it always falls apart. damn, what's with me and victory

I don't like this design, There's a lot of parts, It's just looks fat, It could be good If There's a Transformation option.

Yep, the original V2 Ver. Ka was one of the reasons why I avoid some of the older Ver. Ka kits. Stupid over-engineering that just fucks up the kits stability & posability, parts falling off if you so much breathe on it & being a generally nightmarish hand grenade. A shame too because I LOVE the V2, it's one badass UC suit. This one seems to be better but given the insane price point nowadays due to rarity & P-Bandai, I feel like I might as well just get the HGUC instead.
