My name is Joe, I am a gunpla builder from USA. I will post my Gunpla ASMR videos as well as other Gundam related videos.
I got into Gundam in 2001 when Gundam Wing first aired on Toonami but I really liked 0079 and G Gundam more than wing as a kid. Since 2001 I’ve been collecting Gundam related figures until I got into the Gunpla hobby in 2017.
My first build was a NG Wing Gundam 1/144 that I used as an action figure, so it was easily destroyed. I then remained collection MSiA figures and robot spirits. In 2012 I got my first real gunpla the HG Kshatryia followed by the RG zeta at the same year. I didn’t really get back heavily into gunpla until 2017 when I started collecting with my first kit back to the hobby being the RG 00 Raiser as I was rewatching Gundam 00 at the time.
Gundam is one of my core passions and one of my favorite franchises since I was a kid surpassing even Star Wars as my favorite. Come with me as I build more kits, skills and friendships.

You guys are doing an amazing job supporting the Osiris Aerial Dominator review, we're up on all analytics compared to my average. I really appreciate that a lot, thank you all so much!

The Osiris review is definitely NOT getting posted today lol. Every time I announce a date it's 1 or 2 days behind, ANYWAYS here's some stats for you.
The review script is 12 pages long and over 7000 words. I am STILL writing it but am nearly finished. Sadly work has kept me on my toes the past 2 weeks meaning I've spent less time than I liked on this project which has led to the delay.
Oh yeah, RG Wing Zero shipped - DHL shipping has opened again on HLJ so that will be the next review after Osiris is posed sometime this weekend (probably sunday).
I'm very excited to share my thoughts with you all. There is a lot to say about this kit and I'm trying to be cognizant of your time while sharing as much details as possible.

I’m at the decal stage of the Osiris with 75% of videography done. I just need to gather some B-Roll from the completed kit. I’ve worked on this kit everyday for the past 3 weeks and there’s quite a lot to say about it. This is likely going to be the longest review on the channel when it’s completed.
I did take the time to add some painted details to the frame. That’s always been something I’ve loved about these hyper detailed kits. The perspective of the review is still from a place of building it out of the box with panel lining. But I wanted to do something for myself with this kit before finishing it. I hope you all understand, dis assembling this kit is not an option as the plastic here is very soft and not durable.
Hoping to have the review out sometime this Friday, but maybe saturday if I need to process grain out of the footage…which is a more likely outcome.

Scripting has begun for the Osiris. I haven’t completed the build yet and I already have a 2 TB sized project. I’m optimistic it will be posted next week.
This will be a sizable video and decent in length as I want to be sure I cover everything involved with a build of this magnitude.
Your patience is greatly appreciated, I apologize for the lull in content, and my inability to reply to comments lately, the Osiris has kept me very busy. Sadly I didn’t have anything in the video backlog to post while I worked on this, I also don’t have any free space in my studio as the Osiris has taken up all of it.
I guess that means I need a bigger studio 😅
Just wanted to give another quick reminder that the MG Sazabi giveaway is still ongoing. I’ll announce a winner towards the end of the week. If you’d like to enter to win, simply fill out the google form here:
docs.google.com/forms/d/1v2QC-bfoz_6wmhRhmbFRV_JR5…
Also getting some really great feedback on this google form that I appreciate immensely. That helps a lot with making sure I get content created that you all would like to see.

There will be a VLOG soon, and it will be a little experimental. THIS WILL ALSO INCLUDE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE MG SAZABI GIVEAWAY. Definitely stay tuned for that, I know I'm behind getting that out but giveaway's on youtube with legal stuff is honestly a big headache.
for international fans I apologize I don't have anything for you currently as giveaway rules are strict and annoying to navigate.
The idea of a discord keeps getting asked so I'm very seriously considering this. We will know more after this vlog is released. I hope to have this vlog up in the next day or two.
stay tuned friends.

Hey friends.
107 Toys has kept the kitchen hot, they’ve been cooking a lot of great things for RG lately. Would you be interested in seeing a review of these add on parts? It would be a departure from my typical reviews just going over what these repairs accomplish and if sourcing the set would be worth it.
For USA fans finding these sets can be a little difficult, even more so now with current…political…tomfoolery going on. But I figured this would be interesting enough to cover on the channel.

I think I nailed down how to do reviews that satisfy both myself and viewers. That’s honestly what pushed the Solomon GP02 review so far into the backlog.
My Osiris Aerial Dominator finally arrived, I KNOW this is going to be a highly covered kit. I’m hoping my spin on reviewing a kit like this is different enough from others that will still keep the audience engaged, especially since my review will be later and longer than others.
As a reviewer there’s a lot of variables that go into them. The general audience prefers out of the box builds and reviews. I personally like adding paint work and details to models especially ones of this caliber.
There will definitely be a lull of content as I build this, there’s 64 runners here and I don’t want to rush this build. I hope you all understand.
Im thinking unboxing videos are probably dead on this channel and will be added to the review portion of the video. If you think unboxing videos should remain let me know. It won’t be any different than what’s in reviews now. For sake of brevity just a few shots of the runners in a review makes more sense to me as someone curious of the runners could pause the video and see the runners themselves.

Been trying for the past 2 days to make a vlog based on these new announcements. However adobe premiere pro has given me nothing but problems the past 2 days. This might be the final push I needed to move over to davinci resolve for editing. It’ll be up soon but not as early as I’d hoped. Sorry everyone!
There will also be a channel update vlog later this week…assuming I can get back to editing a video properly.

Hey all,
I just had a week off for some R&R, while I planned to get multiple videos done I ended up catching up on some much needed sleep instead, I guess I was tired lol. That said the newest review is currently cooking and will be up this week. Other videos in the works is the giveaway entry announcement as well as a new tool review.
All that being said would you also be interested in a channel VLOG? This would be a more personal talking head type of video but would be a sort of channel / kit update type of video.
