Before there was the real grade 2.0, there was the real grade 1.5

I thought to myself "Wow that's a really weird choice to pick the Freedom Gundam for the life sized statue to put in China" and then I found out the Gundam Base is actually in Taiwan, it just makes sense now

The original RG Freedom was my first own-salary bought Gunpla and its now glued to a standing still pose. Some minor parts are missing but still looks good. It's 7 years old now.

if the RG akatsuki rumors are true, then we'll have another 1.5 RG

bro i built the rg freedon 1.0 when i was 8...it was...an experience, it's stillon my shelf, missing parts and barely stable, which is why its in a kneeling pose and i also have the victory 2 ver ka, which was...interesting, lets just say he leans against the wall to stand

I know you don't typically cover non bandai kits (and i don't normally buy them) but given its immense popularity, i would really like to see you cover the "Sky Defender" by Einta Industries.

This is basically a RG version of the GUNDAM BASE EXCLUSIVE FULL MECHANICS FREEDOM. It looks legitimately good!

The wrist thingy on this kit has been upgraded to actually stick inside. Just put it in right and push a little. They're no longer lost risks.

Built this towards the end of last year because they had it on P-Bandai US. Built the original a few months earlier to compare. This kit was honestly a huge improvement. Right out of the box the original RG was kinda floppy, and I don’t care for the design overall.

The GCP version looks and feels great in hand, and that addition of the little stands for the backpack for a standing pose is a pretty nice little addition.

I just finished building this kit today! Had a wonderful time with it. I bought the kit earlier this year from the Gundam base in China while there to take a picture next to the life size model.

I recently visited the 1/1 freedom gundam and looked sick and where i got my very first gunpla which is the rg freedom and unicorn.

[germanytiger]

Big problem is that many asian forums reported that this version has big issues about missing particular runners. ESPEICALLY THE FACE MASK OF HEAD PART.
other then that you are good to go, really hope they give the God gundam RG limb joints to RG rising freedom

[grip]

I wonder if this is the rise of Early Real Grade Syndrome 1.5

[yuii]

I have the 1.0 since 2018 and gaddamn that looks so much better. The old RG is a glasscannon. One touch and it explodes

[jaskaranbajwa]

I hope you check out the RG Nu FF, it's more like a 1.1 rather a 1.5 but it's still so cool and gives improvements over the already amazing RG Nu which ends up making it the best RG

[jacobstrong]

Wooh! Keep the RG kit reviews and discussions coming!

[kongyiu]

I wish we can buy this everywhere. The prices for this kit is crazy right now.

[lilboi]

Mecha, 1/100 Gundam vidar is releasing next year🎉

*Spoiler alert for Seed*

Sorry for the late as hell comment 😅


I believe the big Spread reaching out hand 10:01
is to recreate the scene where Kira is reaching out for Athrun to get on the ship before launching into space as Orb explodes behind them

[macyfloof]

That beam saber holder alone is a selling point for me. I have the HGCE Freedom and its sabers just Do Not Stay On at all. If I ever decide to put a new Freedom on the shelf, it'll be this one!

[truthchanMSV]

I don't think the original RG freedom is that bad, but I must say this one is a sizeable improvement.
