People fail to talk about the mid torso hinge meant for transformation every time. If you use it as an ab crunch, take a photo of it in a perspective where you don't see the joint, it looks amazing.

The AGE kits have surprisingly AGED pretty well. I have built the Titus and the FX and they have been great HG kits, despite their AGE. Hoping that they give the series some more love and re-release more of the other MG's since all I seem to be able to find is the the AGE-1 Normal and the AGE-2 Normal and Dark Hound.

I was hoping the RG Hi-Nu Mega Bazooka was today's review, but this is cool too. By far the coolest canon AGE design imo.

13:56 Asshimar is the best HG gundam transformation ever

No partsforming
Not even for the hands
Plus a full action base 2 that stores the alternate hand

This, the Double Bullet, and especially the Dark Hound are great Gundam AGE designs. They may be quite "old, " but they still hold up really well. Among the AGE-2 kits, IMO the Dark Hound is the best among them.

The shoulder structure with the internal ring should have been kept for the Magnum. The stability in MS mode is much better with the AGE era kits with that assembly since it stops the shoulders from dropping down when you’re posing it

Also, ‘requires partsformation’ isn’t 100% accurate since you can technically transform to strider mode without the extender, it’s just more cramped

Just got this guy a few weeks back to accompany my old AGE-1, was a really good build for it's time. Broke the tiny lil stopper in the wing segment so they have more movement in em. Not sure why they put it there though, hinders dynamic possibility options more than anything.

Gundam age is one of my favorite Gundam series especially because of Asemi Asuno. I also like the passing the torch aspect.

[eomersimbajon]

AGE- 2 Normal is cool



but imo, the AGE-2 Magnum just BLOWS it out of the park. Especially the SV Version. The transformation looks even more complete with how the rifle on the Magnum ACTUALLY hides the head in wave ride mode

[anime-mun]

I love ALL the AGE-2 builds. So much so that my prime kitbash merges the Victory Gundam with the AGE-2 Magnum. I call it the Gundam Malibu.

[alfa]

Kinda forgot one step for parts-forming into Strider Mode: folding the hip skirt fin down after it had been folded forward.

Thanks for showing me what I have to look forward for my future build before I customize it.

The HG Age line of kits are my favorite haha

[sXeAndriex]

I'm so glad the HG Age line is getting some love on this channel. They redefined HGs in my opinion.

[asunaneros]

One of my favorite HG kits and definitely a solid one. Mine still holds up today

[xSkyex]

The HG AGE kits are super solid in every sense of the word. All the ones I got are still doing extremely well all these years later (age-2, gbouncer, Zeydra, FX, Legilis)

[supergenods]

The AGE-2 Normal is definitely one of my favorite Gundam designs... especially once it gets repainted in its "Special Forces" colors. :)

[logicblock]

The added bulk of the Age II Magnum SV puts it above the base kit. That said, I really hate the look of the Magnum's wings, and would love a mashup of the SV with the original Age II's wings.

[explody]

This is the kit that turned me around on all of the mecha designs in AGE. I picked it up because it happened to be on sale and I really wanted to build something. I had always hated the AGE designs, but I figured I may as well give it a try, and the build was just so fun, with such a solid end product that I ended up doing a complete 180. I've built almost every AGE HG that's currently available (saving my Dark Hound for a special occasion).

[agenericsteve]

Worth noting, bokksu is awesome and well worth a try, but that competition is only available for those in the US.

[cryingdemon]

Having just completed the HG Age 1 Normal the other day i wholeheartedly agree that the build is ridiculously solid, and the plastic used is something else entirely. Its ability to pose, and articulate are phenomenal in comparison to other kits of it's general price point. I have a new respect, and motivation to build more of the AGE kits. This one looks fantastic as well.
