Unboxing of my [Silver Castle] New SD Epyon

Free Explosion Stand


Free A4 Size poster..






Stickers

More Pictures : Linkin to FB..

For those who had buy SD Epyon.. I wish them best wishes.. in building it..

MY COMPLAIN on SD Epyon..

1) The manual is consider "tak boleh pakai" state.. instruction is sux!..
2) The runners are super oily.. if want to repaint.. need to wash until all the oil is gone only can do.. very troublesome..
3) Parts fitting not really nice.. and seriously.. I don't expect this from silver castle..
4) My own units have a damaged and missing parts on the P runners... the clear red 1.. I check other boxes is ok.. just that after I got mine, I never check the parts are actually melted and missing. (Kind Advice:- PLEASE CHECK BEFORE PURCHASE from any sellers.. during COD.. but those who are using postage.. no choice then.. fate lies in your hand)
5) Because of it's able to transform!.. so the joints are actually loose..
6) The Elbow joints are super easy to drop off.. for my units.. and the parts on the joint actually turned white already and I think if a few more bending.. up n down the joints, it will just broke into 2 pieces..
7) The finishing on the Foot really sucks.. the bottom part of the foot is actually hollowed.
8) The plastic for this SD Eypon is soft.. I dare not comment if want to go recolor the unit.. scared it will brittle.. easily..

MY LIKING for SD Epyon..

1) The Clear parts for the wings really cool.. looking..
2) The stickers are not bad!..
3) Got FOC the Red Color Explosion Action Stand!
4) Got FOC 1 A4 Size Poster of the SD Epyon
5) Got Inner frame.. for a simple kit like SD.

ConClusion:-
Took me 2 hours to complete this unit.. 1.5 hours to assemble + painting the mettalic silver parts.. and recolor the heat whip and also the weapon. and another .5 hours to think see where should fit where

Buy 1 and test it out la..~... Reading other people comment and self build sure have different feeling and different experience..

my first advice to first time playing bootleg..!

1) Don't push it, if can't snap fit it properly.. see where's the problem, maybe trying to dig a bit here n there or trim 45Degree of the male peg, then sure can have easy snapfit.. Dont' trim too much on the male peg also.. else u will need UHU glue or Mr Hobby Cement to make it firm again..

2) If too loose.. don't la complain too loose and no good.. fix it using a simple super glue technique.. lay abit on the male peg and female hole, then quickly insert and pull out.. do it a few time.. and super glue dries up quickly.. it will make it more stiffer!.

All these are consider basic skills needed to play Bootleg kits or 3rd party kits.. Ofcoz for the brands such as DABAN + GOGO + MCMODEL + GaoGao has lesser problems compare to brand such as GHD + JARGON +BENDI.. but have to remember.. always

If buy Bootleg, don't expect it to be perfect like BANDAI.. Sure have some flaws.. such as the plastic quality.. and also the colors.. are not actually that glossy like BANDAI brand.

As needed to rephrase again,

3) Normally Bootlegs/3rd party kits are used to accommodate those who really want to collect Gundam but don't have much money to play ORIGINAL
4) For those who want to use it as spare parts to replace the broken parts from Original
5) For those who are into Modelling and to savage a few parts here and there..
6) For those who are starting to learn the basic of gunpla and to enhance their skills such as how to paint + weathering + detailing + decaling,

Well, sorry for the long gassy explanation but if is rich enough.. just ignore the last 4 points and should actually stick back to Original then Bootleg/Pirated/3rd Party Gundam.

Anyway, Welcome to the China Made Gunpla Thread~

Cheers,

Bang.. I kit bashed my Nightingale.. and keep it into frozen fridge edi.. .. maybe until I syok baru bring it out to build .. now really no mood even to see it

Hmm, rather then start thinking and worrying of how to do this n that.. why not just get 1 unit from shops/LYN Hobbies and collectibles garage forum, and get it started..

The faster u started, the faster u will know it..

more?
