The wings are very hard to get into the backpack as well as those swords to the shoulders.
What I did was using a hair dryer to heat up the backpack and the shoulder tabs. After that they were easy to stick it in.

I’m w ya!!! The stand feels pretty solid although I’m not sure I would leave him in a crazy dynamic flight pose. More like pose, snap pics, return to a semi normal pose

Just FYI, the locking push button for my stand broke so I had to repair it. The figure is pretty heavy so I think there's a real chance of it sliding off the peg if tilted downward.

I remember you posting about your stand being broken. Did it come like that?

I remember you posting about your stand being broken. Did it come like that? I think so, but it can also be something that can easily break where you can accidentally put too much pressure on the plastic gear inside the top of the stand and the plastic tab that holds it in place breaks off. I repaired it by making a replacement piece out of pewter so it won't be easily broken again. |

That would be fine IMO. I would be concerned about mine in a flight pose though given the way the stand plugs into the back of the hip section. I'd probably do something to tighten up the connection. |

Maybe the Deathscythe Hell. Couple sites popped up with a listing showing a prototype 1/72 figure. I think it will probably end up being a Moshow figure

I would be surprised if it really wasn't some Moshow sub brand. |

Very plausible....i'm hoping its actually moshow, i love their quality and cost. its odd because one would assume its moshow, as i have not come across other manufacturer making mb gundam at that scale....or is their???

Would have been nice if they scaled it to the GFFMC Wing Zero. We all know we're not getting official releases for the rest of the line up.

I discovered a small issue with this figure that explains some of the issues the wings and weapon racks have in their mount points and I'm sure everyone that has this will see the same problem. The mount holes appear to be just a little too tight for the wing and rack pegs so that they are actually slightly squeezing them out of the mount holed ever so slightly. When I attempt to push the racks in all the way, their pegs get pushed back out just a couple mm immediately. It doesn't seem to be as bad with the wings. I also noticed this happening with a figure in a youtube review as well. I think to really fix this the rack and wing pegs would need to be sanded down a little. I just received a 2nd figure with the same thing also happening, so I may attempt this with a set of the wings and racks

I sanded the pegs on mine down. They fit nice and snug in the backpack now.
This is a beautiful display piece. Heavy metal frame, metal weapons, very tight joints.
Looks stunning w the 4 wings of light attached, the LED base on, and LED eyes lit up.
The stand so far has been adequate enough to pose, take pics, and return the figure to a regular “feet on the ground pose”
The hands are fully articulated although the thumb on my right hand is loose (womp womp)
The pegs on the wing attachments don’t fit into the four holes on the back pack. I gave it my all...no luck. I finally took some sandpaper, wrapped it around the peg and sanded in ten second intervals. Doesn’t take long at all so go very slowly. All four wings are good to go now.
The only issue I have w this figure is the amount of metal they put in the weapons. A fully metal sword sounds great except for the fact that the figure can’t hold them. The articulated fingers aren’t strong enough so the sword is useless. The gorgeous spear is METAL. Too heavy to really do much w.
I have this guy in full display and let me say....when you walk into the room it immediately demands your attention. People want to hold the metal weapons, see it w lights on, ask about it, or stare in awe. I got the full set that includes the following;
One figure
2 wing of light sets (for the butterflied wing look
Blue LED base
I look forward to their next efforts
Lay off the metal weapons and make the articulated fingers strong like the Hurricane for the next one guys! 😄😄🙌🏼🤪
