F91 definitely from that list. I love that Gundam, so that's the one I think I'll look for first.



Yea, I keep forgetting they were made almost twenty years ago now. My experience with modern HG kits are limited. What really caught my attention are the Build Fighter stuff, because I like the idea of customizable models. But I definitely would like getting my hands on a Revive RX-78-2.

You might like the Fenice or Rinascita if you think the normal Wing is too basic looking.

Word of advice: if this is your first kit get the white version the blue one has a lot more stickers.

If you like Build Fighters and customizability is what you want I'd suggest the Leopard Da Vinci if you want the Gundam aesthetic or the Kampfer Amazing if you'd prefer the Zeonic look.

you know what boggles my mind about Gundam Unicorn RE:0096? And it's some what minor.

I'm curious as to why the TV anime is using a soundtrack from one of Gundam's Unicorns OVA album as the ED, when they made a new OP song for the TV anime.

If that's a "Huh" as in, "I didn't know that"

Or if its a "huh" as in "What is this dude talking about"

Then the ED song Bloody f8 is from one of Unicorns OVA album called UnChild.

Anyways still fun fact, I guess.

Kampfer Amazing, I love Zeon suits. One of my all time favorite suits is Lunimaria Hawke's Zaku from SEED Destiny.

HGUC RX-78-2 Gundam (Revive)/HGUC Gundam Mk.II (Revive)
HGUC F91 Gundam
HGUC RX-93 nu Gundam
HGBF Try Burning Gundam
HGBF Wing Gundam Fenice

The only one i don't have from this list is the HGUC RX782 Revive, I can tell you right now that the bottom four are pretty fun kit though the F91 is a bit on the small side.

Personally, if we're talking about this list I'd go for the Try Burning. The posability is great, plus plenty of effect parts.

Zeta Gundam Movie 1 - I felt like I was watching Zeta Gundam Abridged, but they forgot the comedy. Seriously, this movie is put together by someone with ADHD. Nothing makes any sense and scenes are just stitched together just because. Like one scene Lila is talking to Jerid, she turns the corner, and around the corner her space suit is on. WTF? None of this makes any sense and they introduce Kamille already being interrogated and introduce Fa finding her mom, but never do we see the two have a proper introduction, nor do they even meet up until more than halfway through the movie. How is the audience supposed to care about them when they don't even know them unless they have already seen the series? But then, if you have seen the series, there is no point to these movies. So who the hell was the target audience? Why does this even need to be a thing?

Okay, okay, fine, yes, this was my introduction to Zeta, but I went out and bought the series 2 days after watching these movies because I was completely lost. I have not watched them since the week they came out on DVD and now I remember why. Man, I wish I had sold them off when they were actually worth something. At this point, I might as well give them away. Anyway, yes, I'm gong to watch the other two because I'm an idiot, but also because I feel compelled to do so. The new animation looks pretty nice, if it was on its own and not mixed in with the old animation. It just makes no sense why they made newly animated scenes that are pretty much identical to the old scene, especially the fight at the end of the movie. It's just a recreation of the original footage, but in computer generated animation that is out of place. Why? Why not just make an entirely new animated movie? Ugh, too many questions.

To be fair, in scale, I think the F91 is a smaller/sleeker suit.

Yep all the 90s Gundams are smaller around 15-16 meters tall instead of the typical 18.

So somebody did find a difference between the OVA and Tv version of Unicorn so far. They redrew Banagher's hand.
