Don't waste your money on GaoGao. Shit quality.
Go for Daban, Dragon Momoko and Supernova.

Back then I spend Rm90 for 3 HG TThongli(before changed name to GaoGao). The quality make me cry.

Dragon Momoko is discontinued because the company get raid and sued. Price is triple or doubled already..

Better go for MJH, Daban, Supernova

So glad I got the Dragon Momoko Sword Strike, Launcher Strike, Strike Noir, Skygrasper and my favorite Destiny when they first came out. Their prices today will make me cry

Review is ekcelli chyna professionalism can down the drain.

Basically can be said same kilang to produce for bandai. Let said 7am to 7pm this kilang keluar production for bandai. Then they OT after 7pm using same mould but plastic quality is very low Q as they sell cheap.

Bandai, u gunting keluar then gosok sikit with "kertas pasir" then cantik. The OEM punya, prepare for more works. Well quality difference, can't compain on that.

made in japan by bandai themselves.

Outdated. Now they outsourcing to China factory for some kits but have strict Bandai Hobby Center quality.

bootleg quality forever not good.
and dont ever believe those idiots says it comes from the same factory. its just lies for them to sell u their bootleg product.
when a Chinese manufacturer secure contract from major worldwide brand. they dont OT n bootleg. Will be void of contract and lose their business. dont ever listens to s2pid . no factory willing to risk forfeit the business and get in trouble with law. because there is an contract.

Like this one https://s.lazada.com.my/s.Wkphn, how's the build quality compared to the original Bandai's HG Gundam? I have a few of Bandai HG which I bought when I was small, so nowadays I see this cheaper gaogao and thinking of buying it if the quality isn't too far away from the original one..

I only have bandai rg series more details and color separation to be specific 10 only 2 done the rest put there for over 4 year not yet started just sanding doing some basic line without sticker take me 2 days after that's I'm so lazy

Well is a hobby depends how serious you want to go for it

When you alone window shopping if you like grab it and keep it, no one will blame you for not starting to build, after build you need find a place for them, as long don't let your kid saw it

Just lucky I have no kids,

Keep it for collection is okay no worry

GaoGao HG is pretty bad. I remember buying GG Stargazer, some parts can't fit properly or not aligned right. Need to do some trimming.

I dont support pirates brand. If it is model kits with their own design I am ok, but if it is plain stealing other mold and recasting it, then i wont support.

Company put lots of effort in it, lots of ppl work hard to design it, and when they put it in the market they should be paid what they ask for, just for their hard work and the families behind it.

A pirated kit paid no respect to all the above, they may even put those ppl working on it out of business and affect their family. So when u buy pirated stuff u are also contributing in affecting those ppl life.

I won't even bother with crappy bootleg china kits.
Not worth the effort and time to build one.

That's not to say there aren't any good kits from China.
The Zero Gravity Judge model was pretty good.

Bootleg increase quality unlike decade back. The Daban one is the best 90% quality of original with minor flash on the plastic and slightly tighter connector...

Why not just buy ori?

If its expensive, maybe its not for you.
No need to buy, not even necessary for sustenance
