MG Gunner Zaku Warrior [Lunamaria Hawke Custom] (Review)

Here's the Master-Grade 1/100 scale MG Gunner Zaku Warrior [Lunamaria Hawke Custom]. The kit looks and works great but I can't help feeling a lot of similarities to an RE/100 kit while building it. Still, if you're a fan of the design you'll love the kit!

Thanks for watching!

the part about MGs being undefined nowadays is pretty spot-on it used to be a 1/100 scale with an inner-frame.

I do think this is a pretty good kit and, I do get that other people like the overly-complex builds but kits that are a simple build aren't necessarily a negative, there's no need to be extra just for the sake of being extra.

I'm hoping to see someone customize this into the hospital zaku.

[darthalucard]

I'd love to see a 1/100 Dom Trooper in either MG or Re100 soon

[harveyalexislingad]

I think it's about time we get MGs of the other Seed/Seed Destiny mobile suits. Especially the Gundams. I mean there are alot of them and they are all awesome.

You know, I am kinda ok with the whole lack of pistons or too detailed inner frame, as an (maybe) accidental lore-friendliness; how many Destiny mobile suits use piston and hydraulics/pneumatic anyway? Not just seed but some of the new Gundam AU are generally moving away from the mid-20th century industrial aesthetic and toward the 21st century sleek/integrated design.

You know, after the marathon of a build the Nu Ver Ka was (it didn't help that I built the High Mobility Backpack alongside it), I should build this or the mobile ginn next. I need a break from crazy engineering and moving parts.

Man. I've never seen a kit more in need of a paint job than this one.

[exvaran]

Maybe the construction is simple as a concession to army builders for the eventual [regular] Zaku Warrior release?

[vustvaleo]

in-universe the Beam Tomahawk was meant to be stored inside the shield via a slot on the top of the shield but for this kit there is no slot for it plus the Tomahawk is now redesigned to be more bulkier thus will not fit inside the shield and the mechanism might be complicated to make it work even as an MG kit.

[mradamgunpla]

Another point that kind of makes it seem like an RE/100 is all the "hollow" spaces in parts, like on the handles and the arms for the weapons. I don't recall seeing this as much (if at all) in other MG kits.

[BlueAmerican]

I like the stylized design. Can't wait to custom paint mine. I love the look.

[lordskull]

A little tip for model builders I know some of you might know this but for loose joints and everything use a cement pen And joints and let them dry then use them it works wonders trust me

[franco]

I see so much Potential for customizing .

[RogueGouf]

Glad to hear the piping was a plus in this kit. The seams I am fine with due to placement, they seem minimal and hidden.

[Death_true]

I just bought this kit yesterday and I’m planning to custom the red and white parts although I’m debating which water slide decals I should get for it

[KrisHomemadeBaking]

6:07 why did you gotta mention that, now i will never be able to unsee it or think of possibilities that someone's gonna make a weird custom...

[BikerTrashWolf]

I had the 144 high grade. Liked it quite a bit.

[caseyjones]

Make a custom connector for the beam tomahawk to store on the shield.

[qilyt]

The possible variations I think Bandai will come up with:

-Gunner ZAKU warrior (green)
-Gunner ZAKU warrior (Dearka)
-Gunner ZAKU warrior (Team Heine orange shoulder)

-ZAKU warrior (green)
-ZAKU warrior (Lacus)

-Blaze ZAKU phantom (Rey)
-Blaze ZAKU phantom (Heine)
-Blaze ZAKU phantom (Dearka)
-Blaze ZAKU phantom (green shino’s)
-Blaze ZAKU phantom (purple)

-slash ZAKU phantom (yzak)
-slash ZAKU warrior (green)

[andrewestrada]

I’ll love that Bandai makes Yzak custom Slash Phantom Zaku. And do the original color of the Zaku.
