the 1st MOSHOW product officially distributed via a reputable distributor. 

obviously it won’t be a Mechawarrior (Gundam), but it’s their high quality Metal Build-esque line of robot toys.

They are official back from hiatus.

This thing has been out forever.

So is the announcement that Moshow is becoming a "legit" company and has plans for the future?

It does look that way. They seem to be working on their Progenitor Effect series and producing more of their original mecha designs from it. With an affiliation with GSC we could begin to see their character designs materialise into premium figures, figma, nendoroid, and pop up parade.

it’s also now up on HLJ.

this is good marketing wise...however, this may bump cost up now

I created a thread dedicated to MoShow's Progenitor Effect since this is not a Third Party Gundam releases anymore.

If you missed metal build Sinaju. Or more like me and like flat colors rather than glossy here you go. $177 shipped from Gundamit.com

If they are re releasing this I hope that we get another shot at getting the metal build sazabi. It's the one figure I regret not being able to pick up

I skipped this previously because I was worried about the glossy finish clashing with...everything else. Thanks for posting.

Bummer. I have the glossy one and I'd rather have this. But I'm not buying another.

[kajnrig]

This is the one that's basically just the MG kit with some diecast? Or...?

Yeah. I scored the first glossy version. It's a metal skelly and snap on parts. Not all but much of it. I think the second release it had an actual molded box with plastic trays. 

Parts fall off a lot. 

[weiser21]

Is it worth getting? Should I wait for an official Bandai release?

I don't mind mine. Just lose it and leave it alone is all I did. Change pose every now and again.

 

Is Bandai ever going to release this? I doubt it myself.

I like mine a lot. Worth it.

[weiser21]

Do they actually paint it or just assemble it?

From what I remember members posting here is that it's a kit that is already painted and pre-assembled that when you receive it, you just have to connect the arms, legs, head, backpacks to the torso. Though I haven't seen any photos that shows how they package it.

fact checked true

[slaginpit]

However. I cannot confirm but SOMETIMES they are actually Metal Builds but dont say they are. They bumped this release from Dec 21 some time in Q1 2022

I think the one that came with metal frame is their Freedom build since those frames are widely available back then for SEED GAT-X kits.

No. If it's based on Gundam franchise, then yes. Shin Getter on the other hand whether it's official or third party should be posted in the Super Robots thread below:

Anyone have 2 grand in this economy lol

[slaginpit]

 

so a semi kit needs painting 

 

[anime52k8]

You can post this in the dedicated MoShow thread below since they already doing their own design and not Gundam-related anymore.
