Points from the review: PRO Overall paint job of the figure it excellent. Way way better than expected standard Joints are really tight It's HEAVY. Review said heavier than you would typically imagine wireless LED and includes a charging dock CON Not many accent mark/decal probably due to very detailed surface and they dont want to make it too messy Plastic cover on the thruster looks very cheap Weapon scale looks small compare to the body Price - 980 Chinese Yuan (without the LED lights). Pricier than typical KO figure. review did not say how much would cost with the LED. back bottom thruster is very loose Paint job of the stand is not on par to the figure itself. Art work is somewhat ugly (youtuber's subjective comment) Body is not as bulky as it should (youtuber's subjective comment) |

I think the Kampfer LEDs are a third party product. Don't think they are included with the model (as far as I can tell. Samuel Decal FB page appears to have them as a separate order....?)

ShowZStore's listing for the Kampfer says the LED set will have a separate listing when they get the info for it. |

Metal Kingdom Aile Strike Gundam
This looks really well made, however some comment says the company is known to send official figure for review and urge buyer to wait for the review when it releases.

Damn. These all came in fast. I am always very skeptical on the 3rd party KO unless it's a replica of the Bandai. This one looks nice, but has many flaws. Hopefully actual release will be better. Here is video summary  About 860 Chinese Yuan. (What's up with all the jacked up price for the 3rd party figure now days  ) This is also just a prototype figure. The company admitted there are several flaws on the prototype (the one you are looking at right now), and says flaws will be fixed on the official release  PRO Somewhat heavy Joints are made not just metal (mix of plastic and metal) to hopefully reinforce the joint tightness (same concept we see on MC Kshatriya) Accent Mark is sharp and clear Base is MG with added detail and also has some RG open hatch gimmick LED on mono eye LED on the thruster LED on the Stand One hand holding rifle + launcher no issue CON Knee joint is not strong Elbow joints is not solid, rocks back and forth slightly Metallic red paint not smooth. Somewhat grainy. Looking from distant is ok waist part no color separation, probably will be fixed in official release Gold trim is not "gold" enough. More yellowish than gold Separation gap at top of the head. Not sure if it's intentional, but it looks like parts is not fully snapped together Some paint job and panel line is not complete. (thruster white end part and panel line on the fuel tank) Back pack doesn't snap in tight. Come out easily LED's nice, but use power too quickly Two little weird black nob on the shield COMMENT Hands are Gundam hands, not typical round-fingered Zaku hands Beam Sabre swing effect parts is up to the viewer to decide if it look good or bad (usually it's done like a arc shape) color separation on the rifle and rocket launcher is a bit too much. Official says it's not final color |

its probably by the people that did the crappy zeta, it has similar issues and had very little metal with plastic in joints. It was also a MG to MB conversion.

So a bootleg wing zero metal build is on preorder? Is someone gonna take it? Good for those who missed out on the official one for a reasonable price. As always, expect a little funk with the KOs, but probably worth the price you pay. |

Just hoping that this company doesn't 1:1 KO the Wing Zero box. The product itself will have obviously differences but I hope that at least those searching for or trying to sell the legit in box aren't messed over because of it.

Good for MC, if Bandai made enough so everyone could get one I was against the 3th party companies but this model is so rare and goes for around 550-650 new in box! A lot of collectors got left out because of scalpers or collectors who felt the need to own 3 or more. All my MB's are original Bandai but I think this will be my 2nd 3th party model (first one was the MC Kshatryia and I was very impressed by it).

The Wing Zero was an unusual one compared to other releases since it was a Tamashii web exclusive yet this had multiple pre-order rounds in different regions, including here in the USA. Up to 3 rounds in one even. I think the last pre-order attempts stayed up for quite long as well. So saying Bandai didn't make enough is false at least for this one. You just missed out |
