guys, just wanna ask.
if i can get my friend to buy TT from China (Shanghai), it will only cost between RM50-RM70 for an MG. am i right?

I did my search thru taobao.com.

Thanks for the review there, buddy. That would help clarify some questions about the quality of bootlegs.

Oh...my...God... is that a TT Hongli MG Unicorn Banshee?

@Wynken

Mind sharing what sort of discount policy that he offers ? If reasonable, at least another shop we can go to besides Jia Yang.


@terrykoh

If no shipping charges involved, definitely cheaper and more up to date models. However, bear in mind tax when he brings in the items as it can be quite bulky.


@casdelux

You bought quite a few models from the Philippines recently. Any tax ?

do you know where in KL or PJ got sell this MG Unicorn Banshee? what is the price?

I dont know wheter it is bnshee or not, I just get the infor from my honkiest friend and post here. Still got 4x models come out next two or three weeks. The hongkiest guy is one of the tthongli trader in hk, they used to sell to europe , latin and u.s.

Still can't find any TT Hongli in my area...but 2-3 years ago this brand bersepah at my area..now there none

Is there any site where we can see the latest releases from TT Hongli?

For Penang TT Hongli hobbyists, was over at Prai over the weekend. Went to Megamal and saw quite a number of shops.

1. opposite the giordano shop ground floor, only 3 sets lwdragon.
2. 1st floor in front of the escalator coming up from Giordano. A lot of models seems the owner is into gunpla as well. A lot of GHD and TT Hongli. Price for a HG was RM 24.90 and MG kits like unicorn was at RM 180.00. A bit pricey

3. 2nd floor opposite popular bookstore, the shop featured on the blog before. HG at RM 29.90 but MG kits vary about Rm 120.00. Saw some PG at RM 330.00 Lots of models some of the new releases which have not even seen in chowkit. Kits are from Lwdragon, tt hongli and GHD

4. outside megamall there was a wholesaler near the motorcycle shop megabike. TT hongli and Lw dragon. Saw a lot of unicorn. HG kits at Rm 20.00

went to chai leng park but could not find the wholesaler there.


I would say a lot of choices there as there are other than TT hongli, the only thing is a bit scared of the quality as I heard the GHD brand's plastic is not very good quality.

GHD plastic quality is bad

Whoaa... there's another wholesaler outside Megamall? This I gotta see... Okay, I'm actually a regular at Legend (no. 3)... Here's my tips if you guys ever wanna buy the kits there... If you wanna bargain for the price, always try to bargain with the taukeh, not the leng lui and the leng chai there... However, the taukeh is not always around, but his wife (I think so) is always at the bookshop near Popular... So, if you couldn't get a good bargain from the workers, you can always go the wife (She's the tall lanky lady with spectacles) at the bookshop and beg for discounts... Well, they actually provide discounts for 1/144 HG models if you buy two or more... And there are variety of discounts on NG n MG 1/100 as well... As far as I can remember, 1/100 Strike Noir n Silver Akatsuki i always on discounts... 10% that is...

Added on January 11, 2010, 3:09 pmHere's TT Hong Li's GNX-III that I bought recently... I think this dude looks better without the stickers on its leg armour... Surprisingly, the stickers for this model are quite good and cut well... But, still the quality of the stickers are not as good as Bandai...



And here's my LWD's Blue Frame 2nd L that I bought at Amcorp Mall for only RM35.00...

Wow, for that price, we can get a Bandai one...

jetpeh, the the cheapest price for tt hongli still pasar malam seller. Rm20~rm22 "you know the real price".

Rokirod

Thanks for the insight on GHD....But it's still the only one I see with PG Strike....haiz.....

Achol,

How is the quality for LWD? Saw quite a number in Megamall, still hesitating to buy bcoz not sure of quality

Seikofarlim,

Yup Chong is still the cheapest but he doesn't have alot of choices to choose from. Have to ask if he can bring in some other MG kits and also at what pricing.

Usually,the quality fails in color accuracy and stickers for LWD
if the stickers are left for long without being used,it will peel of by itself and the adhesiveness is lost
same goes to TTHongli "HG Seed and below"

Jetpeh, if you want any MG just tell him. I always give him the code and let him search for me. The china man only know the chinense name and code only. They dont what is axia or oo raiser= they always name axia as >00 001 and oo raiser as GN0000. Rx78-2 ==> MG014 <===tthongli code. Hk guy also calling the code only.

Just get 1 or 2 MGs and probably will get 30% discounts off it. Then sendiri pandai pandai la round up the whole figure.. xD
The price is reasonable imo, at least I don't have to buy bulk to get 50% off like JY. Btw, Jia Yang sucks cock.. I walk so far, mana tau bo stock! Just loads of PG Wingy..

edit: can't go BTS to get model kits at all. tt's shin musha in one shop = rm 299 LOL!

@wynken

Tough luck. Jia Yang no new stocks since July. Always on the way.

I'll normally call them every 2 weeks or so. If any new stocks, then only go over and will post here immediately.

But now, with Toybox giving 30% off, maybe can consider buying from them (but I think from that guy only since he's friendlier).
