Looks uneven, blotchy and many obvious air bubbles on the surface. Not sure if general production pieces will have improved QC. I'm guessing both the Freedom and Kshatriya are pre-production, especially the Freedom with all the 3d printed parts that were in the kit previewed. The MC Kshatriya has a lot of great mechanical detail that the Steel Legend figure just doesn't have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VF-Zer0S Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 The Metal Myth Dragon king looks amazing. I wish these 3rd party companies would tackle a Gp02a. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, believe the reviewer mentioned that. Hope the general release will have these flaws fixed. It is a really nice design that will look good on display. God knows if we will get an official Bandai MB Freedom 2.0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slaginpit Posted January 16, 2019 Author Share Posted January 16, 2019 Have you noticed the lean on the right shoulder. Yikes. Over time that would concern me.

eXis10z Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I read that 2 3rd party Justice are on their way by 2 different makers but until I see some pics will take it with a pinch of salt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kajnrig Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 (edited) I kind of hate that "Dragon King" on principle. I know it's common to basically steal conversion kits for a lot of these third-party figures, but it still bothers me now and again to see it happen.

I've seen mixed reports about the white GFFMC unicorn figures discoloring after being taken out of their boxes. I have the older MC figure of the Blast Impulse that is now completely yellowed while never being in the sun once, and even it's shield that was sitting in a storage box for years also discolored over the same time too. Bandai apparently used some plastics that had the habit of oxidizing badly for the GFF lines at one point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have the XN Raiser on the way. You'd probably only really notice most differences if you put it right up against the Bandai original. Here's a video comparing the two. I thought for sure I knew which one was the original and which was the MC, but I was wrong when the guy showed which was which.

They have slight differences from color to markings. Bandai’s marking looks clearer and cleaner compared to MC releases. However, the big difference is that these MC ones have tighter joints than its original counterpart. With the price it’s going for on th original, it’s better to get the MC brand. Do note that the MC XNRaiser release might not have the weapons and accessories that came with the 00Raiser version such as the GN Sword III, etc. And we’re not sure if the Raiser itself will have its original wing attachments from than 00Raiser release. I’m also down for the XNRaiser release as well. With the prices they’re going for, it’s better to have two version of MC Raiser figures for the price of one Metal Build 00Raiser. Hope that helps.
