Atheonyirh Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Bandai's definitely taken notice of the knock-off MBs. The GN Sword II Blaster is coming with a hologram to prove authenticity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buster is a little over 1m taller than Strike in the stats. Anyone care to do a comparison mock up to visually compare against the mo show/poison toys renditions?

SuperHobo Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 The Buster Gundam does look quite hot and I'm glad they redesigned the LEDs to not need the stand. I still find it funny/interesting Mo Show has to keep changing their company name to most likely evade Papa Bandai. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calubin_175 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 QUICK! 1/72 Hurricane was 680 CNY before release and it has now gone up to 880 CNY for in stock listings! The 2nd batch is due 2nd quarter and will range from 680 CNY+(some are charging 800 CNY). The preorder deadline is 10/01/2018, so they are showing the urgency of this last chance. For the record, Moshow strike had about 3 batches in total, Weijiang MPP-10 Optimus Prime had an indefinite number of batches. MC KO Metal Builds don't move much in price. This is the first time I've seen a Chinese 3P product go up in price upon release. Should we worry about Tongmeng EX Omegamon and Dukemon too? Transformers 3P don't go up due to pending transformation reviews. I really do hope that Poison Toys continue with a Duel Gundam next. A reissue Strike Rogue or Perfect Strike variant would be great too. In my opinion, Moshow Strike was the best Chinese 3P toy of all time, maybe even better than some of the top tier 3P Transformers in terms of surpassing the benchmark standard of their respective toy categories.

bristolguts Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 The original Moshow Aile Strike's backpack has a set of hidden holes for the launcher and the sword, with minimal modification of thickening the pins, you can create the Perfect Strike.

no3Ljm Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Cool. When you say original, are you referring on the initial release where the cable is connected to the figure directly or the second release where they corrected and remove that from the figure? I have the second batch release and somehow I tried pulling those Aile Boosters to reveal those hole but stop since it won't budge and won't slide. I don't want to force it for the reason that I might break the wirings inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperHobo Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 So how's the Mo Show strike pack? Same quality as the strike? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bristolguts Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 This is the ‘second release’ with the wire attached to the backpack. It doesn’t matter if it is the first or second release though. In some batches, factory went through the trouble to apply some glue in between the thruster and the backpack. If it is the case, you need to use a model cutting knife and gently slide though two places on both side (4 in total) to loose them up. One is between the thruster and the backpack just behind the laser sword handle, the other is above the thruster, medial to the where the wing attached. See the forum images below I borrowed from Baidu tieba user 就是喜欢玩’ a thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you referring on the Poison Toys Launcher and Sword Pack? If it is, then yes, it's the same high-end quality form Mo Show's since it's the same company. 23 hours ago, bristolguts said: This is the ‘second release’ with the wire attached to the backpack.

captain america Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 I wonder if any of these third-party companies will ever take some of the cooler Master Grade kits and scale them up to 1/60? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F360 Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 My 1/72 weapons pack finally came in. It went back to China due to the fault of some seasonal postal workers. Lucky , the seller was cool and we were able to work out something that's both agreeable to have it resent. I got these from Hobby Mission. Heard good things about them so I might as well try them out. Their price is similar to GMC, some time more, sometime less. They shipped by EMS so it took close to a week to get to USA. http://www.hobbymission.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=104 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope they deliver well. I really like the look of the packs, (especially the Sword set). The 1/72 is already big compare to the normal 1/100. but when you add in those packs, it almost felt like it's not big enough. I think the Launcher set would look much better if it's a bit smaller. I like diecast ,but I think they should use less on the retractable support arms. Overall I feel MoShow (whatever other naming they might go by in the future) makes excellent stuff, their item do not feel Cheap and they are not afraids to add in their take on them. I've already pre ordered their 1/72 Hurricane, and the method they used to make their items look "different" always cracks me up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Running out of space and budget. Hahaha! By the way, let me know if you're going to try and expand the Aile Pack and insert those other packs on the hidden slot.

kajnrig Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 I dunno, it looks like an exact copy of a Metal Build stand to me. And IIRC, both 1/100 Gundam models (with some finnagling) and MBs can fit on the stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I was about to do this earlier this evening to test out my iPhone camera and to have comparison pic to post. But I ended up taking sample photos on my Orguss figures instead. If time permits, I'll try to do this tomorrow evening for a quick snapshot of the three figures side-by-side if that's ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QC is not that great IMHO since there's some small gaps on some parts like e.g. Rail Guns and the Wing connectors. I tried to squeeze them but it won't close that much. I'm assuming uneven plastic on pegs and whatnot. The Dragoons is not flushed properly on the wing railings so there's some visible gaps. It's not perfect but it beats Bandai pricing so I'm all good.

Here you go sir. I just took photos of the main 00Qant figures. I didn't include all the accessories that came with all of them. Aside from the hands and swords, both MoShow and Metal Saga came with Saber. And Metal Saga Turris Babel came with the Big Sword meant for MB Avalanche Exia. Here's the orientation of the photos: Left - MoShow Center - Bandai Right - Metal Saga Turris Babel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
