- [Producer] Five minutes to go.
- No!
(intense music)
- Five minutes, are you kidding me?
- [Producer] Five minutes.
- Oh, no, I did the wrong thing.
- Oh my god, I've got it.
I've got it, guys, I've got it.
I've got it, I've got it, I've got it,
I've got it, I've got it, I've got it, I've got it,
♪ I've got it ♪
I have five minutes, I have to keep going. (upbeat music)
- Hey guys, my name is Zotti. - My name's Akari.
- And today we are building.
- Gunpla.
- Under 30 minutes.
- And they come in these, frame things, like this, wires?
- Yeah. - And you like clip them out
and then you stick them together somehow.
And they make this robot.
- Somehow.
- I know the name
but I didn't actually watch Gundam growing up.
And, I don't know, it was always for guys?
The boys were always talking about Gundams,
but girls were always Sailor Moon!
(gasps quietly)
- I love Sailor Moon. - Yeah, it's so good.
(suspenseful heartbeat)
(bell dings)
(intense music)
(yells) - Go!
- Oh, (bleep).
- All right. - Okay, we have.
- I'm just gonna.
Do I need the picture?
- We do.
- Okay, so there's a lot of packets.
- So many packets.
- One, two, three.
There's three packets, okay.
Okay, that's all right, that's manageable.
(glass shattering)
- It literally says, (peaceful music)
don't rush, take your time.
It literally says don't rush.
Well. (upbeat rock music) - Oh, that is a cute comic,
oh, it's really cute. - Yeah, I told you.
- Okay, so basically what's happening in the comic,
a little brief break down.
(speech sped up)
Gundam forever, baby.
(glass shattering) - I can't believe you
just read me that.
(laughs) You're losin' it.
- Okay, B5, well I found B5 now, thanks to Tom.
And then you just pull it apart.
Is this when you use this thing?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. - So how do you
actually do this thing?
- Just like this, on the little, the end there.
It's kinda got a little gap.
(cute pop music) - So Gundam
is the name of the show.
The animation show. - Yeah.
- So, Gunpla, pla, means.
It's actually a show done for plastic model.
- Right. - So it's a Gundam
plastic model.
- Each of these things has a number,
like A1, A2, A3, A4.
And then you just have to just plug in A1 to B6,
and that's pretty much Gundam.
- D12 to B6.
(upbeat music)
I feel like this is,
oh, you sunk my battleship! (explosive booming)
- Oh there we go. - Oh, they're like scissors.
It's not, oh!
- Oh my god!
(upbeat music)
In my head I kinda saw this as a gluing activity,
for some reason, I didn't know it was gonna be
puzzle pieces and clicking in.
Which is really satisfying.
(bell rings) - Five minutes has passed.
- Are you serious? - Okay, I've done one thing.
- Are you actually serious? - I've got this.
(downtrodden synth sting)
- No! - Oh my god!
(strange music)
It's impossible to make it in half an hour.
- All right.
- Stay in. - Oh, oh!
This is (bleep) amazing.
(laughs) - No way!
(cheers) - I finally did it!
(crowd applause)
Finally.
(suspenseful music)
In ten god damn minutes. - So you built a shoulder.
I built a head.
We're making terrific. - But I mean,
it's not even whole arm, it's just the first part.
- Yeah, mine's not staying in.
(dramatic sigh)
(panicked screaming)
- Now it's stuck. - Okay, I don't know.
I'm just gonna leave that,
and then. - Oh my god.
- Like, we could actually work together.
- Yeah, look, let's do it.
(triumphant music) (crowd cheers)
Let's just build one together.
- E1. - Or is it meant to literally
go like that? - Seven.
- Or like that?
No, like this.
Oh, oh my god.
Oh my god, I think I got it.
- It doesn't go in.
- What are you building?
- Right here,
it's the last arm. - Oh, that's so frustrating.
Okay, so this has turned to fun,
(sad music)
from fun to really, really.
- I thought I could do this. - Mother(bleep) infuriating.
- Oh, that, that looks dope.
(upbeat music)
Nice.
Compare the pair.
Look what I've done, nothing.
- I'm gonna keep going, okay.
Oh, that's just the head.
- I don't know how those kids are doing this.
(upbeat jazzy music)
- Look, they've just got a lot of time,
and their parents obviously have a lot to do,
so they want them distracted.
- I've stopped using the pliers now
because it takes up too much time.
- That's the body. (crowd cheers)
- Oh, that's hectic.
- Yes, that's taken like half, 15 minutes to do.
(bell dings) - 20 minutes.
- No way!
No way, no way, no way.
- I am lost. (upbeat intense music)
I'm at a point where I don't know what's happening.
Oh.
I don't know where this is meant to go.
This is really confusing.
- I'm stuck.
This is really hard.
It's just those tiny pieces,
I'm supposed to...
(music abruptly stops)
I don't know what's going on.
- Oh, wait, I just did this wrong.
You go over here, a-ha. (upbeat music)
You go over here. (bell dings) - Five minutes to go.
- No!
- Five minutes, are you kidding me?
- [Producer] Five minutes.
- It's so stressful (laughs).
- Oh, no, I did the wrong thing.
- Oh my god, I've got it. (crowd cheers)
I've got it, guys, I've got it.
I've got it, I've got it, I've got it,
I've got it, I've got it, I've got it, I've got it,
♪ I've got it ♪
I have five minutes, I have to keep going. Okay, right arm.
Should I do a leg?
You've got a body, yeah?
- Yeah, do another arm so we have another arm.
(bell dings) - Two and a half minutes left.
- No!
As the time's going on my hands are getting
progressively sweatier and sweatier.
- Now I'm kind of proud.
I've already done a head and an arm.
That's pretty good for the first time ever.
You know what I mean?
(pliers clicking)
(siren blares) - 60 seconds left.
- Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope.
This is the block, this is,
tools down!
- Nine, eight, seven. - Oh my god,
I need to put it together.
Do you have the body?
Give me the body,
give me the body. - Six, five.
- Give me the body. - I got the body here.
- [Producer] Three, two, one!
(bell dings)
- Get this bit, get this bit, get this bit!
- [Producer] Time's up. - No.
(quiet sigh) (sad music)
- That's really good. - Yeah.
- It kinda looks like the box.
- This is what I got.
- And this is what it's supposed to look like.
(laughs)
- It's safe to say we failed pretty miserably.
- Hey! - I think I failed, while she.
- We did so good. - Yeah, okay.
- Look at, this is half an hour.
Considering the fact that the instructions were like,
don't rush, take your time.
And we were all like (plastic rattles).
You know? - Yeah.
- I feel like we've actually done extraordinarily.
- Anyone trying to attempt this at home.
30 minutes, you're gonna need two people.
And even then,
you're not gonna have a proper Gundam.
- Yeah, I feel like I would like to do it, (upbeat music)
it'd be like a fun thing to do
with some wine, with some friends, while you're hangin'.
- Yeah, listening to an album,
or something like that. - Yeah!
(upbeat music)
