So a Chinese YouTuber that I follow has posted a fairly detailed review of this thing, with comparison shots with the Bandai MB.
General summary: Funny propertions, big feet, thick biceps, very small wings relative to the body, same proportion issue with weapons as well. No swappable hands, just pg style 5 finger hands with no palm cannon detail either.
Paint and build quality is fairly good, white has a bit greenish hue compared to the light gray of the Bandai. ratcheting joint in shoulder. Generally good and stiff joints. Very heavy and solid metal content. Very obvious panel lining and overdone marking decals. V fin is soft and came bent, would have to straighten out with hot water like. Beam effect part for sword is too short and doesn't fit properly!
Kinda uneven LED gimmick in chest and head, as well as red LED in base. Base not as stable as Bandai version, especially for such a large and heavy figure. Ugly sun motif markings on the base support...kinda wtf.
All said decent for a first time release, with much room for improvement. Personally I wouldn't mind getting one just for giggles, but I'll probably watch and see if the price goes down. It's currently going for about 120 usd on Taobao. That's not too bad for a PG size figure, but the wings look dinky so it probably would look best just standing.

Third party stuff is getting amazing now after getting the 1/60 strike and MG 00s. Chinas stepping the hell up now and thats amazing for us. I really want another 1/60 strike but I think I'll be fine without it for a while (200 for a spare is abit too steep considering the amount ive spent in the past 3 months)

The Wing and weapons are ridiculous small and out of proportion. The entire figure looks like a joke. I don't think I would pay for this even for $50.

So I bit the bullet so everyone could see some more pictures and to check the quality control. To put it bluntly there is no quality control. Here is all the damage: imgur.com/a/uL1PhHead was off when received and rubber v fin was bent and had paint that was subpar. Here are some additional phone pictures of it and a size comparison to the Mo Show Qan I recently received: imgur.com/a/uGIbS
