as expected from such a "hot" model!  rclxms.gif  i already have mine in hand! very very nice looking, can't wait to snap fit it this weekend after i get rid of all my assignments!

also! if anyone of you know how to fix a broken connector? or replace it so it works as normal?

seen above is the manual scan for NG ARF, my ARF arm connector is broken as shown in the pic, anyone know a fix?

this part i think u better buy the entire new set runner easier, fixing it won't be a problem however cannot bend as normally do already since it was small peg broken from pressure too much.

hmm, but won't that be too much trouble? also i think they only take orders in japan?
actually it's not a very small peg, it's a pretty large connector so i thought it won't be that difficult to fix.. wouldn't metal rods do the job, though?

well for me the smaller the parts are the more difficult it is to repair. moreover worst that part is the internal frame part which use to frequent movement. fixing yes using steel rod drilling it and super glue it. however it won't be permanent fix for good. like i said it will still be broken when move too much due to small peg holding pressure too much.

you can try use proxy agent such as HLJ or others to order the whole runner it self is more worth a permanently fix but won't be cheap although.

anyway it is up to you to decide.

option 1) I won't want to waste my rm160++ mg red frame with retard broken hand which can't move

or

option 2 ) I rather spend abit extra that will save my mg red frame good as new and also with new parts from the runner i able to use the other parts spare again just in-case it accidentally broken a thing or 2 again in near future

In my opinion, 00R would not be cheaper then RM100 COD price when it reaches our shore but I could be wrong  tongue.gif ... don't forget that is with shipment+custom clearance+local transportation+margin.

Some might want to do like QV ordering directly from China (due to no importer in Australia?) to save a few bucks and wait several weeks for the goods arrival, or you can wait for our local seller to get bulk shipment later and paid a bit higher for ready stocks wink.gif

Pre-order can always be a bit cheaper, as the dealer already gotten your money to roll, plus they know exactly the qty to order thus no risk of over-order and suffer with dead stock. Furthermore, if price increases, the dealer would request for top-up or your initial payment forfeited (this has happened a few times with our local sellers who do PO). Risks are with the buyer... is it safe to PO? when will my order arrive? do I need to pay extra when my goods arrive?

On the other hand, no hassle from local reseller... price right, get; price not right, wait for promotion wink.gif

The choice is yours  whistling.gif

aya no need to hassle or think too much when it reach our shore then just buy it no matter PO or not we still having the kits we buy. rm10 to rm20 profit makes not much differences when important thing we got it safe and sound in our hand. icon_rolleyes.gif

1/100 Nightingale review Pt III

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


summary:
1. plastic quality is really bad. molding inconsistency is very consistent
2. require a lot of cutting,trimming.
3. Many parts doesn't snap-fit readily, need engineering rework (fuh seh giler poyo ayat...)
4. despite all the shitty quality and rework to be done, surprisingly i'm not pissed at all. i get this weird nice feeling that when i snapped it at the end, it look quite good, just need more finishing touches.

once again, this is not a kit for newbie. for others with some basic skills, this is one kit tht'll be good to hone your skills. smile.gif
