  • it was going on guys that they were taking.

  • Look here at the premium Bandai Master grade across bone Gundam X over ka.

  • So this is yet another version of the cross bongo number ka.

  • There's been many of them and we're finally making our way here to the crossbones.

  • Gonna x o Unlike some of the other ones where it's basically just a close watch on, you have like one additional weapon.

  • This is basically just a color swap and you have one additional weapon.

  • Essentially.

  • So, basically just like with the X two x two cod x three They're all very similar with just a couple little different parts here and there were usually just ahead and then the weapons.

  • You have, like one different kind of special weapon, and that's the case with this one as well on.

  • But it is a really cool package.

  • The really cool thing about this one, too is that not only is it a color swap we're getting for the color of this is that cool molded silver.

  • Now it does look really good for the most part, but the nub marks are very noticeable.

  • Unfortunately, just due to the process of the injection molding.

  • Anytime they do that with the metallic gold or silver or something, always it's inevitable.

  • You're gonna able to see the no marks.

  • They're just going to be a little dark colored there.

  • There's nothing you can do.

  • You can't stand them.

  • You can't polish them is just because of the actual color of the plastic.

  • At that point, there is just different self, not like they can do about those, unfortunately, and they are noticeable in some certain areas.

  • Definitely.

  • And that's just a shame.

  • But for the most part does look cool.

  • And the metallic red especially, does look really cool as well.

  • For the accents you have that metallic injected red as well looks really nice, like it is a little bit more sticker heavy than I remember, especially after just recently building the RG crossbow and how awesome that was.

  • So it definitely could definitely feel that gets age a little bit.

  • But of course, it's still just looks really good when you do have a mountain of accessories for this.

  • So we'll get into all that in a moment as always, guys huge thinking to us.

  • I got in store for their support in sponsoring this review, you check out the link to their site down below.

  • If you're looking for P Bandai stuff or anything from Bend, I could book your other kind of paints that supplies everything else.

  • You can check all that out on their website down below.

  • Use that coupon code there.

  • Zachary Least 10 saved 10%.

  • All right, so let's get it through all of the accessories for this guy, right?

  • So, of course, with this being a burqa, we've got a nice big sheet of water side decals on here, mostly in white and a few of them in red.

  • But these look, they're pretty much all caution markings if, except like the very 1st 1 Otherwise, it's all just kind of generic caution markings.

  • Things to go around on the kit.

  • Now, before we get into all of the official accessories, I just want to make a note of a couple of noteworthy left of our parts is you have a handful of leftover parts.

  • In this case.

  • Of course, the first thing here is we've got the original kind of chest vent part here in yellow.

  • So if you prefer that over this metallic red one.

  • You got that?

  • Also got the part here for the chest that doesn't have the hole in it for plugging the skulls.

  • If you want to just have, like, the cross bone Vanguard waterside account from a different kid or something on here, Something if you want to do, You're using this poor kid bash.

  • Whatever you re repainting it, you have just the plain chest part There you have the original standing proudly figure here.

  • It's not technically my interviews with this kid, but it is included.

  • Of course, this a couple of parts were just basically the same parts was molded in different colors.

  • One of them being just like this.

  • For example, this part here for the front of the crotch being in red's.

  • If you wanted a little bit more red on the case, you could add that on there instead of that dark blue.

  • Then you have these back skirt parts which I believe are from the X one chi.

  • I'm not sure exactly which kid it was originally used.

  • These but thes back skirt parts have this part that pulls out of here this handle part, and then it's meant to have a little wire going out from there and I forget what this weapon is called.

  • It's got this little kind of hook claw thing there that goes out the other end of the wire.

  • So obviously no wire included for this is this is just left of our parts.

  • But you do have the full parts here to make that.

  • If you wanted to use that, you just have to get your hands on some wire.

  • But speaking which going from background here to the front skirts, we have these fixed chain parts here for the front skirts that what you'll do?

  • You just pull that out of there and works very similar to the real grade.

  • Actually, you just plug this year in its place, plugged the skirt on to there and then fold out the sides of the skirt and they make the scissor anchor so you can make it look like that's shooting out from in front of a skirt like that.

  • Grab onto an enemy or grab onto an enemy's ship or something.

  • Anyway, you've got that it makes for a cool up in with this being just a fixed straight chain.

  • I think some people may have preferred if it was an actual chain, I don't know, but I think this works well.

  • Just because if you're doing like some dynamic pose, you want to actually look like it's actually shooting out of there.

  • And if it was just the actual Cheney would hang loose, you'd have to put a wire through it or something like that to make it actually into this sort of post.

  • It just depends on how you want to oppose it, I guess.

  • And then we have a couple of knife blades, which you can do a couple things with.

  • The 1st 1 of course, is to stick this out the bottom of his foot to have a stabbing knife kick.

  • But the other thing that you can do is pull that handle out of the back of the leg here at the back of late.

  • I got to handle for that.

  • Pull that out and the knife blade just plugs into there, and that's just a handheld just knife to be able to use for close combat.

  • So that's pretty cool.

  • You got to those other things that are not new but are part of his body are.

  • Of course, this part will fold out of here, the brand on the back of the arm full out over the hand.

  • If I can work this like that and then we have the beam effect parts for that, we've got two sets of this being effect.

  • Parsi could do with this with both the left and the right hand of the same time that displays onto their like That looks pretty cool.

  • Obviously, it's not looking all that interesting at the moment, but in an actual action pose, it'll look a lot more convincing.

  • And then up here in the top of the torso, you've got this little handles which will pop out of there, which are for is just regular old beam savers little bit tricky to get out of there.

  • But there's the handle for that, and they've got to regular clear pink beam saber effect parts for that, so you can use two of them at the same time.

  • I like the handle is just a very small and kind of thin, simple handle for that.

  • It's a small thing Thio like, but I do like the design of that, and these seem pretty long I mean, the crossbow I'm gonna in general is a little bit smaller.

  • Gundam.

  • So the fact that it's using what looks to be a pretty standard 100 scale size being Sabres means that in total heights the beam with the handle does come almost about to the height of the kit itself.

  • So it's pretty long and should know, of course, that the Corps fighter does pull out of the backpack here, so that is just folded like that.

  • The nose cone fold outs.

  • And then this whole thing kind of slides up.

  • There we go.

  • It's kind of tricky.

  • Thio get to do that.

  • But there you go.

  • There Is that folded up in extended.

  • Now this would just while we're here, will point out the stickers that says Yellow stickers here on the top.

  • And then those yellow stickers there underneath as well.

  • So I got a few stickers on that.

  • This cockpit hatch does open up that canopy anyway, and theirs are seated public.

  • Figure up inside there, the beam saber.

  • What is the most ever handles will then just pulled down like so to the side.

  • And then this is just meant to be this kind of closed up so that it can just fly along like that.

  • Unfortunately, this doesn't come with any sort of action based connector specifically for this.

  • I feel like this kid was coming out brand new this year.

  • They would have include some sort of action based connector for this because Ben is pretty good about doing that these days.

  • But things just at the time, maybe they just Unfortunately, I didn't think about including that with this part.

  • Unfortunately, Oh, and just other stickers.

  • All these yellow bits here at the end.

  • Also, yellow stickers there.

  • Unfortunately, instead of actually yellow parts But anyway, getting back to the accessories we have the original Buster gun here and the beams Amber, which are going, are holdovers from the original kids.

  • So these can be used separately.

  • Oregon combined them into the Zen buster, which will take a look at later.

  • You do have a clear part in there for the scope for that.

  • It's a shame these air molded in silver.

  • I mean, obviously the theme of this case to be in silver, but I think I would prefer these in just their original color is white or something, but obviously that's where you can paint.

  • Need to also have the clear effect part here for the beams Ember.

  • So that can be used as it is, like so like that.

  • And these both do have a peg on the side for plugging these onto the side skirts when for storage when they're not in use.

  • So let's finally get into the new weapons specifically for this kid's.

  • So here we have the butterfly busters and kind of interesting name.

  • Not a very tough sounding name, perhaps for how cool these weapons are.

  • You've got a set of cool shotguns just as they are like that.

  • But they also transform.

  • So you've got to Moe's.

  • You've got the gun mode as you're seeing here, visibly just held in the hand normally.

  • But if you straighten out this handled back like that, fooled this all the way down, does basically folds in half like so and then close that together like that.

  • Then take our massive beam effect part here for this again.

  • Really cool.

  • Just design on that.

  • I think that looks really cool that is plugged into their to give you this saber mode for this.

  • So really cool.

  • I like this just as like a big giant, Basically sort of double beams.

  • They were looking sort of thing.

  • Essentially.

  • So that's just gonna be held in the hand.

  • Now, this one?

  • Yeah.

  • We'll see about the way issues of this because this one is also pretty big for its height.

  • It is taller than the actual Gundam.

  • So to be wielding two of these is gonna be pretty intimidating looking.

  • I think you should also know that these are specific to the left and right side, as they also have a peg for storing these onto the side.

  • Screwed if you wants, all of the weapons can be stored on the side skirts, which is nice.

  • But that is not all for big new weapons, because we also have the kohaku, which is basically sort of like a combination of the peacocks, masher and other big buster sword that had originally the crossbow.

  • Good.

  • I'm still gonna see this is the buster mode which will just act as a giant store we've got, Of course, the beam effect parts for this as well, because everything's gonna have been infected parts.

  • These will just plug into this hide like that and it looks pretty impressive and also quite heavy.

  • So again, I'm thinking we're probably going to be running into some way issues once we get to starting to actually trying to pose this kid.

  • But that looks really awesome, just as it is.

  • Of course, this one as well is huge from the feet up, this one also taller than the actual Gundam in terms of its head high.

  • Anyway, if we remove those effects parts, we can transform into the smasher mode by basically just rotating this whole thing.

  • And then this opens up like that and you kinda have to make sure that straight to line up into the air like that.

  • And there you go.

  • There is this smasher form.

  • So it turns into this big, giant kind of cross bone, crossbow looking cannon crossbones, crossbow looking weapons.

  • So you hold onto the gun handle, which is down there on the sword mode or the buster motive.

  • Hold onto that handle the yellow one there still pretty awesome looking.

  • Of course, you could still have the effect parts in here as it is like that, but this is just meant to be shooting like that, which is pretty awesome.

  • So it has a ton of different weapon options and gimmicks built into the kit and accessories, both new and old.

  • Let's try outs, imposing options because there's certainly plenty of them.

  • But of course, how could we also forget about the ABC cloak?

  • I almost forgot because I was keeping this in my pocket because this just came, like, folded and third like that, and it's just flat and folded.

  • I wanted to crumple it up.

  • Thio, Look, give it a little bit more realistic.

  • Looks like Crumple it up and put in my pocket and I almost forgot about it, but I didn't.

  • So here it is.

  • This is a B C close that has the shiny side and in the dull side, I think which side is supposed be facing out?

  • You also have included a wire and a piece of double sided tape, which you're meant to use for this.

  • Yet they're gonna stick this here around this part and then wrap the wire in here so that that will form like a kind of rigid edge around this, which is the part that goes around the heads to conform that while the rest will just kind of like flow freely.

  • So let's go and just try this on for size first.

  • OK, so I was wrong.

  • The shiny side goes on the inside and the dull side is outside.

  • So I mean as it is, Yeah.

  • I mean, it's not really all that great looking.

  • To be honest, it looks better than the HD version.

  • Day wanted to take a look at the H G X one kai, but it's still not great.

  • I think if you didn't work, try to work on it some more.

  • You know, like really try to rough it up and do like what it says in the manual manual.

  • If you guys saw on the unboxing, it showed to kind of cut the edges of it intentionally, just to make it look more afraid and everything.

  • So I think if you worked on it a little bit, you get it to look better.

  • But I think it's a kind of cool look, and the really great did it really well with just the solid pieces.

  • I think that's just the best thing, because the cloth is just kind of hard to work with.

  • that said, Actually, the metal bill does look pretty awesome as well.

  • It actually uses wires along the edge to they can actually kind of form that.

  • And so it's not just completely free, distressed in cloth.

  • As for the articulation, it's all pretty standard.

  • So I don't really bother going through that as we have a lot of different weapon options that I want to try to show off to you guys in this video.

  • But I will just point out a few things about this.

  • The cockpit hatch does open up here where you can see there is the front end of the corps fighter that is folded up inside of there.

  • So because that's inside, they're not really going to have a whole lot in terms of movement here in the stomach section or the chest of the summit crunch would say, You do have a little bit of a ball joint action there at the base of the torso, but not really a whole lot.

  • And with this being a cross blanket, the mouth of this does also open up so you can open that up there in the face That does look pretty cool like that and no separation of the knee armor for this, as the knee armor is all just built into the lower leg armour here.

  • One thing that I have noticed about just the inner frame of this inner frame here in the thighs.

  • Just kind of weird assembly, and it seems kind of weak.

  • And so moving the leg around, keep noticing these thigh armor parts keep kind of separating off a little bit because of this, the way the the frame is there in the thighs.

  • Strange, so just a little bit careful with that seems kind of weak.

  • It seems like a little bit of a week, but you can see the kind of jiggle in the leg there that is because of the our inner frame There at the thigh and then regarding the sticker is, of course, there's a foil sticker for the eyes.

  • We also have white stickers here for the tips of the beef in.

  • It's just obviously one solid red piece.

  • Put those stickers there on that and then for the shoulders here.

  • If you couldn't very easily tell stickers here for the yellow circles there and then left it back as well again.

  • I think this was a modern amount and masturbated.

  • Those would be separate parts, but because of the age of this, those were just handled as stickers.

  • Unfortunately here, the back of the head as well.

  • You have a green foil sticker there for the back camera on the back side of the head.

  • That's pretty much it over all.

  • The articulation is pretty good, and it's not really much in the way of steam lines on this case.

  • You don't really have to worry about getting rid of steam lines anywhere on it.

  • So that's nice.

  • It's just, unfortunately, got a couple of places where stickers are making up for a little color.

  • APS that really should have been separate parts.

  • I think they would have been if it was a modern day kid.

  • But things like this, like the tips of the beef in there's no way they're gonna make that a separate part.

  • It's something this size.

  • They will have to make this if they made like a mega size crossbow.

  • Maybe, but that's assuming that they were to make a mega sized crossword in the first place, and then they would make an X O version of that which is just not ever gonna happen.

  • We'll also know that this doesn't have any sort of action based connector with, unfortunately, so you have to use this for action based connector, which also doesn't really fit all that well.

  • So it's a little bit goofy, kind of have to work with a little bit to get it balanced on there.

  • Well, that's just another unfortunate aspect of the age of this kid, but I'm pretty sure I don't know offhand, but I'm pretty sure that other Master gets that were coming out at that time were having some sort of action based connector included.

  • So I find it kind of strange and just unfortunate that this has so many cool weapons and someone different dynamic posing options that could do with a bit of weapons or anything.

  • And they didn't think to make a way for this to connect onto an action base.

  • All right, so I did do a little bit of checking, and the original crossbones Erica came out in 2006 just for guys reference and that whole cloth and the for the ABC Cape ABC cloak for that.

  • It's that whole cloth and wire and taped bit.

  • That whole set up is all original from the original mass grave Burke eyes.

  • Well, I actually just didn't know that I forgot that because I've built a master grade crossbow.

  • I'm gonna But I built the knot of her conversion, but the full are full cloth version that came out think shortly thereafter.

  • That is just a regular master grade, not over coffee, but also those back skirt weapons, which I was mentioning before as being extra parts included with this.

  • Those are called screw whips.

  • Those air also from the original master grade for con not from the X one, Kyra.

  • Anything like that.

  • So if you've built that original Kitt's way back when or any time since then I suppose, then you'll you'll recognize those parts from the original case.

  • And also, one other interesting thing is that the well it can't attach on any sort of regular action basic can actually be attached onto the top of the included base that comes with the master grade.

  • I found you on the original master great f anyone that comes with the base, which is like a left, the Shia kind of mobile armor, and then it has like a bass arm coming up out of it.

  • This can actually attach onto that, but it's not mentioning this manual.

  • It just has the same parts of the original cross bone master buried Vir Cotto, which can attach onto the base.

  • You could do that, but unfortunately there's no way to attention onto any other sort of action base, which is just weird.

  • Another interesting thing that I noticed about this is that the main part for like, the palm of the hand was changed, and I didn't really know why at the time when I was assembling it.

  • But I realized it now is that we have a new part for the hand with a different little bit different peg for plugging into the new weapons.

  • So it's kind of interesting that makes it so that it actually does hold the new weapons pretty well.

  • You still have a little bit of a weight issue with the coup Jocko, just especially with the demon fact parts in there.

  • It's gonna just be really Harry, not really for the arm the arm can hold.

  • The defiance at the wrist is where it's gonna be having some trouble holding that up.

  • But as far as was gripping the weapons, the new parts with hand makes it so that you can grip the new weapons really well.

  • So they're not gonna fall out of the hand of the problem is that the pig is just a little bit different from the pay for the old weapon.

  • So I was finding that we're holding the older weapons from the original kit was a little bit kind of Harriet's not wasn't what?

  • There wasn't like they didn't have the best grip on them.

  • S o.

  • I would say, If you want to be holding the old weapons, just hang on to that part that you have in There is just one of your leftover parts is the original part of the hand.

  • Hang on to that and use that if you want to hold one of the original weapons.

  • But if you want to hold the new weapons, use the new part that instructs you to use in the manual.

  • So it just kind of strange they didn't use the same part for everything, but I think they wanted to update that And the original hand part was maybe just not strong enough to hang on to, and I think that Peggy is just a little bit shorter.

  • It's one of those, like the old master grades where it has, like, the peg in the hand.

  • But it's just like a nub of basically, it's not doesn't really give you a really solid grip on the weapon.

  • So overall, guys, I really like.

  • This kid's a lot of fun.

  • Just as you guys know, I like a kid that has a ton of accessories and weapon options because that always just gives you till just the Maur stuff do you have in the box to just play around with is always a thing.

  • More funds that's always nice to have.

  • And like I said, despite its age, the articulation is still good.

  • It holds up very well.

  • It doesn't have any seam lines on there that's also nice.

  • There are a few bits where I think the color separation could have been a little bit better, but overall I think that it is still very solid.

  • The one thing that I think the biggest problem about this kid is just the fact that it's kind of tricky to get it on an action based.

  • But as you see, I mean, I've had very much not really had a whole lot of trouble keeping this on the action base for doing a hold of bunch different poses.

  • Just not quite as secure as if it were to have an actual built in connection for, ah, extra base.

  • And while the metallic silver and red look really awesome on this just straight out of the box, the no marks, you know, aren't the best.

  • So those do community expects that it's got the numbers on there.

  • But I think in general they're not going to be all that noticeable.

  • The kid just still looks really cool, even with those little numb marks.

  • And then, of course, you have all the water side D causes.

  • Well, you can put on this where they're gonna paint the kid or not, adding all those vertical waterside decals are just gonna is just gonna make this look really cool.

  • Now, I think we're just with this being really shiny and silver.

  • There's already kind of a lot for your eyes to take in just because of, like, how shiny it is.

  • Adding a whole bunch of decals on to that, I think might make it even just a little bit too busy looking for my make.

  • It just kind of Oh, come just a lot for your eyes.

  • You just have all that shyness and then a whole bunch of little decals all over that as well.

  • I don't know how that's gonna eventually end up looking, but I guess I'll find out someday future.

  • Whenever I get around paying this kit, I do want to keep it in its original colors because I think it's a cool color scheme for this.

  • I need to get a little bit, but that is pretty much gonna be it for this review.

  • Guys think of just about covered everything.

  • There was a lot of weapons and stuff to get over, so I highly recommend this kid's despite the fact that its people and I kid, you will have to pay a little bit more for But if you're a fan of the cross, but especially this version of the cross bone and you want to check out those cool new weapons that it has, then I would say bite the bullet and try to pick one up if you can.

  • But of course I'm interested to hear what you guys thinks.

  • Let me know down in the comment section below If you got it, if you want to get it or if you're definitely passing on it And your reasons for that again.

  • A big thank you to us a gun store for their support.

  • Check going to their side, Down below, guys.

  • And I'll see you next time.

  • Have a good one.

it was going on guys that they were taking.
