Definitely want this

So de and Kanda Toy Group have both shown off a MB Crossbones Gundam supposedly by Poison Toys and being called the "Pirate King". Anyone seen anything about this?

Given the rising cost of everything these days I'm not surprised. Their cost probably went up

With that being said I probably only want the Heliopolis version of Strike. A clean one without all the logos will be nice.

Still hoping they release a rouge with Aile Striker Pack as per OG anime and a deactivated Strike with the trailer.

If anyone wants another MB Strike for these striker packs, I would recommend finding the Metal Kingdom KO, which normally can be found for around $120 these days

So... if you missed some posts from this the previous page, during the Gundam Figures Live event, they mentioned that this Exia variant is part of a new story that takes place after Episode 13 of Season 1, where Celestial Beings are doing research on "Double Drive". On the said video clip, Dynames is also shown equipped with the 'Devise' backpack as well.

 

The new sword seems too advanced for that time frame though. They didn't introduce the GN condenser material swords till midway though the 2nd season

This new product isn't from Mo Show. 

It's being listed as from McShow. Obviously trying to play off the name.

This is a re-release with a somewhat updated Aile striker by the looks up of it. I have two of the original release with the sword and launcher packs

I see no reason to get this version of the Wing 0. Might as well by the Super Nova Wing 0

ShowZStore is taking payments for the Motor Nuclear dragon figures now.

Almost all the MC figures are 100% knock offs of the Bandai Metal Builds, so all parts work on them.

Received my poison toys kampfer. Looks amazing but one of the shoulder joints is seized up. I managed to take the outer armor off (glued on) thinking that i could just unscrew the shoulder joint and clean it ect, but there is no screw. It appears to be pinned. Im thinking that too much glue was applied during assembly and it got into the joint. I had to leave for work before i could mess with it anymore. Will update with pics later.

ShowZStore will work to get you a replacement part. Just make sure they arrange a whole replacement arm and not the piece that's giving you trouble. I received a replacement part for another figure and there was no way to open up the arm to replace the part without damaging the entire forearm of the figure

Good to hear! Hopefully, they also affixed the hands together too in the 2nd batch. I'll probably order one when ShowZ gets back and I can get them to DHL it to me. 

I received mine last month with two broken parts that can't be fixed so Show Z Store has sent one replacement part so far and will be sending another soon. Mine also has multiple armor pieces that have no glue or poorly applied glue holding them in place so I've been having to go thru and fix parts that fall off. Also one of the right forearm part that's supposed to open up to expose one of the beam sabers appears to be mistakenly glued closed, but given how the beam sabers don't really fit well in these it's no big loss. I've also had to glue the hands together, and one of the thumbs doesn't seem to fix the hand it's supposed to go with. While the out of box experience is bad, once it's together it feels and looks great, and the paint finish is excellent. I just wish they had spent some effort on the packaging and QA

After Sazabi, JiangGao is doing Ex-S. I have a feeling @Graham will like this.

That's going to be huge.

A nice surprise was waiting for me when I got back from some errands today! The 1/72 Poison Toys Hurricane. Seriously, these are toys I can actually play with. Heavy as all heck to.

The cannon from the Poison Toys Launcher Striker pack can also be used with the "Hurricane" as a 3rd weapon. and it can mount on its backpack.

My Sinanju has 2 major broken parts that can't be fixed and one of the heads was broken into pieces in the box. 

Photos of my Metal Kindom Strike. It's near 100% the same as the original Bandai figure.

Can you confirm if the plastic color used is somehow near to the original? Red, blue and greys.

Thanks!

 

It's near perfect from what I can tell. I'm impressed with the results.

I received the Metal Kingdom Aile Strike today. Other than some of the tampons markings being a bit lighter than the original's and even having a couple markings the original doesn't have, it is damn near identical and appears to have the same level of detail and quality as the original. There may be some minor differences in paint finish but just different, not worse. The die cast metal seems to have a shinier appearance than the original's but it also isn't a bad thing. Early product photos don't do it justice and if you didn't have it next to the Bandai figure, you'd probably never know it was a KO

I wish they kept the head and gold-er gold from the original promo images, this one went more towards Power Rangers than I was hoping for. I think it still looks like a good figure but I'm not quite as hyped as I was before.

 

Odd they changed the head. The original one didn't even look like a gundam.

The Metal Club Freedom is going to get released soon. I know Metal Club already have a good reputation on these KO stuff. However, I prefer what WuMing did on their Freedom, design-wise. Which I just bought a 2nd batch version just last week. Hope it's not going to have loose joints nor any issues again from the first batch release.

What is it you actually prefer for the WuMing?

Man, the packaging for SInanju is looking pretty "garage kit" like and back alley level of quality.

That's probably a pre-production unit.

Just got notified my PO for the MB Sinanju is due, which means that it's close to shipping

Review of one of the Motor Nuclear figures. I like the looks of it

Most likely both of these are coming in stock some time soon. I didn't get notified for Kampfer yet, but that's probably because I could be in the 2nd batch of pre-orders. I knew Sazabi is coming soon, but not this soon . Going to have to figure out how to pay for all of this. 

I put in my PO as soon as the news went up about the kampfer. I'll check with them just in case.

Got notification that the MC Freedom is ready to ship. ShowZStore seems to have 2 listings for it though.

Just got my PO notice to pay on these two dudes. Start shipping right away. Pretty excited!

 

 

You got notified for the kampfer? I have a PO in for it and I haven't been notified yet.
