Only pictures of the thrusters? Wanna see inside the box!


Added on December 28, 2011, 10:59 amWhy would RC be fake? They aren't directly copying a product that has already been made.

We'll see what the modeling community brand it as, fake or a new brand?

it's like this la:
Bandai engineer make the original design and TT, Gao Gao or whatever just copy it and remake it with cheaper material, that is obviously a pirate ain't it?
I only buy Ori plamo that I really want and will have time to build it. Why spend thousands but keep all of them inside the box right? whistling.gif
Still I also bought some pirate stuff like MCModel since most of their designs are awesome tongue.gif
Alas it just a hobby and you spend your money on those stuff so why care what people say.
We got a good thread talking all about fake/pirate here so why do we bother barging to Ori thread?
p/s: damn RC nightingale is so awesome. sad.gif

well, 3rd parties and garage kits can also be considered "pirated" since they are taking the intellectual properties even though the model is self made.

then again, 3rd parties and pirated kits can also help the original creator aka Bandai indirectly. haha.

Dragon Momoko Blade Liger
user posted image

I bought this only cause its cute, itll most like be one of the only 2 SD kits I have(this and the SD Nightingale). Cool kit, with not too many parts, so it'll take 30 mins max to finish it OOB. Pretty detailed too, just like the Deathscythe Hell. Am in the process of painting it now, and it will be unveiled sometime before New Years.


Runners
Sorry No Pics of the runners. Bro built his and I built mine, so no pics. But All I can say is that the quality of Dragon Momoko is amazing. I reckon that its the best detailed pirate company out there.

And my kits came with the special gold plated parts, as can be seen in the pics(teeth and blades). I dont know if this is a first batch special or not, but with the 2 kits I got, they both had these parts. The real kit only had these parts due to some special offer.

Painting
There are no pre-painted parts for this kit. There some small white and gray parts that you want to paint, but it’s nothing much.

The biggest challenge is to paint the Van figure. Mine worked out alright I think. This one doesnt have spikey hair, and it was molded on the white sprue rather than molded in ABS like what the instructions say. That means Dragon Momoko are actually not fully copying the kits.

Articulation
Articulation is very limited in some parts. The legs dont bend at the kness, only by a ball joint at the top. The feet are attched via a double ball joint. Gives some articulation, but the ankle armour gets in the way. The most articulate part would be the head. Pretty good range of movement but is hindered by the fins on the head. The booster cover and booster on the back that can be lifted as well. The tail is only articulate in the base joint.

That still doesn’t stop from posing it in the most adorable way. smile.gif

Gimmicks
The actual blade can be detach and rearrange to make the illusion of extending the blade/wing.

Anyway, more cute pics to droll over!

This is my fully painted kit. If you want to view the non painted kit, please check out page 118.

Oh and as for the plastic quality, it seems pretty good. I had no trouble painting on it with acrylic. With enamel, the plastic can survive it without melting. Its durable enough. I had to clamp together the head cause I was having trouble closing it with my hands. The plastic did not go white due to strain which is a good thing!

Any thing else, just ask!

Well I got my huge order in last week, and people were interested in the GHD kits. Well here are some pics.

PG Strike
Box

Its not that bad of a kid. Looking at the parts, it isnt too crappy, molding was pretty spot on. If I compare it to my GHD 1/60 Strike Freedom, Id say this is much better quality. New batch from this year maybe?

Sorry not many pics for this. I will do an extensive review when I build it.

1/144 Meteor
Box

Parts
Ok quality. Wouldnt say its the best. Detail is ok, a lil less than TT.
user posted image

Molding was crappy, but I know that the GHD kit is super old, and they are re releasing it! There are runs in most of the kit. I guess its ok, since I would be painting etc, but for OOB builds, itll look crappy.

Although, the 1/144 Freedom that it comes with is actually quite good. I cant seem to find any runs, and the detail is on par with TT(but no where near Dragon Momoko)

Once I build it I will be doing a more extensive review.

And to show you guys how huge the order is:
user posted image

Everything there + one more Destiny EBM and 1 more Blade Liger. Minus the B*ndai Ball.

And now Im gonna also get the GoGo HiNu EVO, the RC 1/100 Nightingale, and maybe the TT MG Wing Zero.
