Want to ask opinion on those who have owned gundam from Metal Build Series.
I used to own a Metal Build Freedom. I quite love it... The proportion, weight and tight joints give that really good satisfaction when handling the kit. But in the end I sold it... to fund for other hobby. A little bit miss it to be honest.
The kit isn't perfect though.. First it is expensive. 2nd the paint job on my freedom isn't excellent in my opinion.. I saw people comment the paintjob isnt up to the standard of the earlier metal build 00raiser.
I saw they are coming out with Strike Freedom end of the year, and I am still deciding want to pick one up or not. My concern is... how is the paint job/quality control in the recent Metal build release: exia, destiny, astray? Has the quality improve or getting worse? can anyone who owned any of these give some quick review? This isnt cheap ... so have to really make good consideration before pulling the trigger. somemore with bad RM to USD rate... not sure if it will exceed rm1k... at release.
Freedom is the weakest link in MB line... I believe they tried cheaper supplier and became a disaster..
MB Destiny & MB Astray Gold are superb piece of art.
but being finished product, there will still be defectives, but far less frequent than MB Freedom...
Highly recommend you to pre-order one if you really interested as the price gonna soar exponentially like USD to MYR currency... (see MB Destiny)
