The gold plate 1/144 god must be the special edition one. The one I have only uses yellow plastic... Also, the kits are still MADE IN JAPAN! lol.

Only some model kit made in China like 1/400 Alpha Azieru but already full painted by China factories but why in 1/400? because this kit are larger than HGUC Psycho Gundam if made in 1/144 scale lol  QUOTE(xDarkKn1ghtx @ Aug 7 2010, 04:07 PM) oh god  exia's legs were extremely horrible... the nightmares of posing it  now that you mention it, unicorn have more limited posing than Exia... but Quanta mostly use 00's legs This post has been edited by nazrul90: Aug 7 2010, 04:29 PM

Even though Unicorn has less posing capabilities, its much stable, no? Anyway its good to hear that Quanta's leg might be the same as 00's. any chances of them making a new leg for it?
