A review of the Master Grade Crossbone Gundam X1 Version Katoki.
Review number "I'm still doing these."
I had to cut a lot of stuff out of this review. The original audio was over 15 minutes! I mainly went into how I went about painting, some details on the gimmicks, and how I applied the chest decal. Feel free to ask any questions you have, and I'm more than happy to help you, since I feel like I glazed over a lot of the stuff that warrants questions.
Expect a review of the Crossbone X3 soon, since it'll be a solid little 4-5 minute follow up to this.
Other than that, I need to stay on the exposure levels. I think I put too much faith into the sensor on my camera for this review. I think it focused too much on the black background, so when I cranked up the ISO so my shot was properly exposed, the actual white of the Gundam ended up being blown out. Ah well, lesson learned.

    I just stumble upon your video for the first time and I have to say I really like your style; structural review with each aspect clearly separated. Also, that painting guide is very helpful and easy to follow.

    You mention it doesn’t have an issue holding the weapons, but I’m having the opposite experience. The hands on this kit won’t hold onto any of the weapons at all, no matter how I slot them in. I can feel the peg slide into the weapon, but just touching the Gundam afterward will knock it out of the hands. Really frustrating. I wonder my particular unit was just bad or if I’m doing something wrong.

    Sorry for the late response here. I used one of the dry transfers. Basically, I applied the decal and noticed there was a crinkle on each side where it popped up to fit the curved surface. I got my newest, sharpest, exacto blade and carefully cut a slice under the bottom of the crinkle so it could fold over itself and fit the curve better. It's a nerve racking process, but it's worth it imo, especially since you get a spare dry transfer for back up.

    Coolio Ash It depends. With the Crossbones coming from a fairly old and debatably canon manga, the idea of ‘anime accuracy’ is kind of out the window lol. There have been takes of the weapons in gray and gold throughout the years. Personally, I went with what was suggested in the sample build in the manual, which was gray. However, I’ve noticed newer kits tend to go for a gold. It’s up to you! Regardless, judging from the sample build provided in the manual, gray is the correct color for this master grade, so thats what I went with.

    Thanks for watching another one of my videos! lol Like I said in the Hi-Nu review, this review is aimed at an average gunpla fan, most of which won't do extensive painting/detailing. I've found that the people that don't care about painting or detailing tend to not really need reviews because they're experienced enough to deal with whatever comes their way. But beginners and casual fans tend to be turned off by an abundance of painting, so I make special note to mention that stuff. Thanks for the input though.
