Love the 3rd party/original mecha model kit reviews. Hoping to see many more this to help fill the gap left by Bandai’s MG line. Still praying for an Infinity Nova Nemesis review! Or even an Asgard review!
@@dumbfox0.819No. It is not. What you mean to say is “it has a similar style to Moshow Lancelot”. The Lancelot does not have a scythe, the head on that thing is completely different and so is the shield. They have a similar color scheme and general theme (both have that white-grey-yellow-teal royal knight look). This is not an adaptation, it is its own design. I don’t deny that this could be inspired by the Lancelot if that’s what you’re implying! The Lancelot has a lot more blue on the body and more vents, and the Lancelot has that clear yellow feather/hair piece on the back of the head. MOSHOW and SNAA are two completely different Chinese companies, Moshow doesn’t even make model kits really much at all.
@@thanhtrung9180 as it stands. Market for gawain is almost from resellers only(none from actual suppliers) so the price is more than double. You could be right, the production might actually be done.
@@mazwansams9028 yeah , i cant get my hand on one so a bit sad rn , hope they will make a 2nd batch . By the time i got the achilies and plan on getting the iron sickle and the new release giant axe.
I recently built Achilles. The inner frame details on that one is awesome, some even fully covered by the outer frames. I am now waiting Iron Sickle to come.
Ever consider looking into the Motor Nuclear kits? They are a little bit more expensive, but they actually feature some diecast and painted parts in the build, and for the price, they even give some of Bandai's MGs a run for their money!
I really like the MNP kits by Motor Nuclear. Mecha would definitely enjoy the Zhao Yun with the horse. I really really want that one so bad! The Zhao Yun looks really cool.
I built the Nezha a few months ago and I've got to say, it put a bag over bandais head and shoots them in the stomach. The shelf presence is out of this world
Moshowtoys already announced that they will be making Mecha Break stuffs. Knowing Moshowtoys, I would expect them to be Metal Build-ish style of figures.
Recommended you try Hemoxian Lone shadow and Tastier, also Chinese kits but the accessories and mixing playstyle is crazy good , excellent plastic quality, and super cheap for wat it offer
Supply and demand theory, the more people want something, the higher the price will be Both Gundam and Transformers are popular brands, so any products based on their brands are gonna be expensive (not just toys/action figures/model kits)
Looks great, we're only just now getting stores that stock gunpla regularly so its impossible to find these 3rd party kits without shipping them from other countries and paying obscene shipping fees. I hope I get to build this one day it looks sick and a lot of people seem to be recommending it.
I’d really like to see model kits from Hardcore Mecha. That game has so many awesome designs and they have them in real robot form and a sort of SD like form when you are in-game.
This year I'm making a point to really give the Original mecha model kits & just non Gunpla some more attention(ALL THE IN ERAS!), all of these companies have really upped their game & it's my last hope for more good quality 1/100 kits. Got 2 of these guys to do a Solar & Lunar paint scheme, lookin forward to workin on both of em especially based on this review!
The ABS plastic is noticeably lower quality than what Bandai uses. If it's your first kit or you want to panel line it the first party kits will work better. If you know what you're doing just get the sickest looking one
Generally these Chinese mecha model kits feel over-designed, just a lot of unnecessary bits and excessive use of clear parts that seems like an attempt to cover-up their similarities to Bandai's IPs. This one though? While you can see its inspiration pretty clear, still looks quite clean and cohesive as a design. The only excessive part is the scythe, which is the best part of the design to embellish in my opinion.
Superb Video as always. Have you heard of the Rival of Model Kit Genesis? The Infinite Dimension Nemesis. Try to take a look of the model kit as it is their best one yet.
i know your channel still gundam-focused kits, but i would like to see u building others 3rd parties like u have done before (zero gravity judge, hunt & kill falcon, in era kits, etc). Unlike bootlegs, most of these kits are worth to try
I use tamiya accent panel line for my 3 snaa kits and it's fine, the plastic not melt or anything, i haven't built my sickle yet but i think is alright to use it
This kit give me Gyan vibes TBH, espsially the ones from the Ghiren's Greed video games. I now want to give it the weapons of the HG GYAN STORM just for the hell of it.
its time, mecha. Time to go deep into third parties: sky defender, motor nuclear, monument repair, and the coming nemesis in march. Get them all, i NEED to see your thoughts, grab the lizard oh god.
Bought 2 of this, coz its cheap and i think this one can be use for scribing practice and painting… look at that exhausts and knob hinge, so sad to see those only in grey colour… 😢
I agree this one is very very nice kit but the price here to my country is really HIGH price from first release it range only 600php but now its 1k see how fast to change the price and still goin higher 😅 so i recommend buy it while still at low price or else you will regret it
I don’t think any mecha models without media to help push the designs will ever out compete Bendai. Like the shows, manga, novels really do a lot to sell the designs, so while this thing is cool, without any background story or anything there’s no emotional attachment or real interest.
I guess it's your fault why it's sold out where I am. It was available in stock, then suddenly, gone everywhere. I expect prices to go up, too. I was too late to grab one, I guess. 😅🤣🤣🤣
I love the look of this kit, but on my Thunder Incise and Gawain copy, they became loose over time, especially in the torso, legs, and arms. I wanted to get the Achilles and this Iron Sickle, but seeing how both became loose, I think I'll pass on this line. It's like an early-grade syndrome. My Gawain is only 2 months old, but it has become so loose that it can no longer hold its weapon 😭
@@mikeb4198for Thunder Incise, I played with it regularly and changed its pose every two days. When it became loose, I used a joint-strengthening pen and left it to set. However, after finishing my Gawain, I became afraid it would become loose if I posed it regularly, so I just posed it and left it alone. But after a month, it became loose, and so did my Thunder Incise, even though I had already used a joint-strengthening pen on it.

It's almost certainly not ABS. ABS is a relatively expensive plastic and tends to be flexible, but not rubbery. My guess is it's just a cheaper polystyrene that as a result has weird properties.
Anyone know a seller in europe (preferably germany) that stocks off-brand mecha kits? Theres is plenty for gunpla but nothing i know off for other lines
The BL companies had been making real good Job at making kits recently. JMS for example had been making extremely well kits. For example the HG Spartan only cost 6-7 USD and it has varying colors from white, green, brown and black. And the JMS Hyaku Shiki gold coating only cost 9 USD, all of which is damn near bandai quality and to top it all off, it comes with a free Waterslide Decal and action base. No wonder these BL companies are thriving and selling like hotcakes especially at the Asian markets.
Bl is still bl instead of making it own design they just copy it form bandai and sunrise intellectual property. Even some third party company just mix several of the ms design and call it their own mecha design how shameless
@@phungdohaok13_hcm57I mean, at the end of the day most people only really care about having a cool plastic robot on their shelf, the TF fandom understands that, it's about time the Gundam fandom does as well Y'all gotta let the daban days go lol
Love the 3rd party/original mecha model kit reviews. Hoping to see many more this to help fill the gap left by Bandai’s MG line. Still praying for an Infinity Nova Nemesis review! Or even an Asgard review!
it's not a third party anymore since it produces its own design/IP.
i think its based on the Moshow Lancelot of the Lake,this is the hg version of that
@@dumbfox0.819No. It is not. What you mean to say is “it has a similar style to Moshow Lancelot”.

@@SamRK-1000 CHILL OUT BRUH...wtf
built my gawain and loving it.. almost full undergate nub.. super clean and lots of detail.. nothing can beat this kit for price-quality value
Oh , can i ask something , will they continue the production of gawain cause i heard it has production problems results in small stocks?
@@thanhtrung9180 as it stands. Market for gawain is almost from resellers only(none from actual suppliers) so the price is more than double. You could be right, the production might actually be done.

Never watched any gundam, but I love me giant stompy robots. Very cool profile, which is how I purchase. Thanks for the heads up and review!
This isn't gundam
@@KidZ3ta that is what the comment is alluding to, they don't care about the franchise and instead look at designs
@@matmightstir1427 I see. Ok
@KidZ3ta I know, just drifted into giant stompy robots through the gundam kits. Not particularly in need of gundam ip, just big robots.
@joshgrillo2482 Yeah, I get it now. Can't blame you, big robot cool.
I recently built Achilles. The inner frame details on that one is awesome, some even fully covered by the outer frames. I am now waiting Iron Sickle to come.
Incredible detail on the SNAA Iron Sickle Kay, a true masterclass! 🤖👏

They're amazing kits
I think most people not willing to try motor nuclear is because they arent really "mecha" like
I really like the MNP kits by Motor Nuclear. Mecha would definitely enjoy the Zhao Yun with the horse. I really really want that one so bad! The Zhao Yun looks really cool.
I built the Nezha a few months ago and I've got to say, it put a bag over bandais head and shoots them in the stomach. The shelf presence is out of this world
Great prices rose after your reviews
3rd party manufacturers upped their game since coronavirus craze started. Bandai has some serious competition nowdays.
Great review!
I hope the mechs from Mecha Break are this good when models are created.
Moshowtoys already announced that they will be making Mecha Break stuffs. Knowing Moshowtoys, I would expect them to be Metal Build-ish style of figures.
素晴らしい動画ですね！ガンプラの組み立て方がとても丁寧に説明されていて、初心者にも分かりやすいです。この作品のディテールと仕上がりに感動しました！次の動画も楽しみにしています。😊
For that small sickle, you can just flip its storage so it can be picked up from its shoulder
I got this kit for about 7.50 USD in Malaysia, i got it cheap because i pre ordered it
Recommended you try Hemoxian Lone shadow and Tastier, also Chinese kits but the accessories and mixing playstyle is crazy good , excellent plastic quality, and super cheap for wat it offer
Soo this confirms my theory that gundams are expensive just because they are popular robots. An RG Optimus Prime would reach astronomical prices then😂
Go check Blokees Action Edition 01 Optimus Prime then..
They are expensive because bandai hahaha
Supply and demand theory, the more people want something, the higher the price will be
Both Gundam and Transformers are popular brands, so any products based on their brands are gonna be expensive (not just toys/action figures/model kits)
Yes
You should see warhammer 💀

Ordered as soon as I saw the build
Honesty, to me, it screams "Miss Sazabi" from build fighters, or "Miss Sinanju"🤭 It really looks beautiful
I'm confused now which one should I buy, HG Lfrith, HG Aerial Rebuild, HG Gquuuuuux or this Baddie
This baddie for sure, for the value for money. Unless bandai decided to make MG Gquuux
The ABS plastic is noticeably lower quality than what Bandai uses. If it's your first kit or you want to panel line it the first party kits will work better. If you know what you're doing just get the sickest looking one
Just get the best looking one.
Lfrith or this one, I'd say. But still pick the one you dig the most by looks
Best MECHA Reviewer ever!!
hoarders already bought it all once you posted the review video here in Philippines damn
This is great kit, but just you wait for the next kit from Snaa.. The Snaa Giant axe Lancelot🔥
Iron Sickle is my first SNAA plamo, I think this kit is the best of the other SNAA 1/144 kits, I hope in the future there will be 1/100 for this kit.
if u enjoyed the iron sickle, i think u would like the upcoming Lancelot
Yes, I can't wait for Giant Axe Lancelot
You know it's something if mecha gaikotsu made 2 videos of it back 2 back

I just wish the next kits in the series have more colors so the first one does not seem too out of place
Superb Video as always. Have you heard of the Rival of Model Kit Genesis?
The Infinite Dimension Nemesis. Try to take a look of the model kit as it is their best one yet.

I used Tamiya panel liner and it seemed to work fine for me on the Grace.
This thing looks like medieval version of Sinanju.
Plus tallgeese
this is like looking at a plane crazy mech get transformed into a high grade/real grade.
definitely gotta try to cop this
Looks like a beefed up Gyan Tallgeese hybrid. Would buy for the shelf presence alone
I kinda want this to pose with my Liber Knight.
There’s a RG nightingale, you should totally do a review ❤
Looks awesome definitely something I should keep a look out for. It’s around the same price as HGs so like $20-25 USD is pretty good.
Man, that expensive because here where i live in southeast asia it's like equivalent to $10-11 usd
where do you find it
What panel liner did you use? (in other words, what is safe to use?)
I use tamiya accent panel line for my 3 snaa kits and it's fine, the plastic not melt or anything, i haven't built my sickle yet but i think is alright to use it
Pour type panel lines are not safe for the underframe of snaa kits, had the thunder grace snap in half on me.
You should build the snaa Achilles, it’s pretty good
This kit give me Gyan vibes TBH, espsially the ones from the Ghiren's Greed video games. I now want to give it the weapons of the HG GYAN STORM just for the hell of it.
Ohhhh, that is a nice mecha
you should defenitely get the Lancxelot, the leader of the Thunder grace, the horns are so dam cool
Please check out more from Snaa, like the Snaa blade king. It's awesome
You should try to Build the Red Crimson Nightingale :) That 3rd Party Kit is awesome for it's price.
I beg you to review the in era lizard, it looks so good 😭😭
Where i can order one?
to me this mecha design reminds me of a Gyan and R-Jarja.
its time, mecha. Time to go deep into third parties: sky defender, motor nuclear, monument repair, and the coming nemesis in march. Get them all, i NEED to see your thoughts, grab the lizard oh god.
Already pre-ordered the Giant Axe SC-005 (I think)
Hoping for a Animester Galahad Review uwu. Thanks for this review!
I saw this kit for 170-200 pesos in shoppe . Shoppe users can totally get it cheap
Here come the scalpers
So is it Gundarium level???
I got all 4 of this kit for just below than MYR40 each ( below 10USD).. What I can say it is better than some HG and RG
Dam it looks good! I would love to buy it, just to make an amazing custom with 30MM WEAPONRY.
We need Tallgeese II review
everyone says that the head looks like a sinanju or a barzam head. Im like it looks like a bawoo or a rebawoo head to me!!
Sick bro
Looked great. I checked and it had been bumped up to $39. I'm sad because I love a good scythe design. 😂
gundamcentral selling it at $28 usd with free shipping
@Triv_Gundam In stock? OMW 🚲
@ managed to get one, hopefully you still got time
You should try Yolopark's Shockwave, MG Solomon Physalis, or the PG Tallgeese Repair by Nilson Work
Where are people finding it that cheap? Cant find it remotely close to the price stated in the video.
bro, dont forget to try in era lizard 👌
Bought 2 of this, coz its cheap and i think this one can be use for scribing practice and painting… look at that exhausts and knob hinge, so sad to see those only in grey colour… 😢
Hey mecha! You should try to review the einta industries sky defender or the infinite dimension nemesis.. Those are banger kits!
Please review the Monument Repair Type🙏🙏🙏
Cam you feature the ikaruga of knights and magic soon, if you have the time
Hope you do a review of Tallgeese Monument repair type 1/60
Ima guessin you alreadt ordered Roaring/Giant Axe Lancelot then?
You should review in era lizard thats one hell of an amazing kit for ay $60 model kit
and the latest giant axe went back to the lazy ahh old frame of the thunder incise grace
AWESOMEEE!
you should do the origin gouf (tactical demonstrator)
I agree this one is very very nice kit but the price here to my country is really HIGH price from first release it range only 600php but now its 1k see how fast to change the price and still goin higher 😅 so i recommend buy it while still at low price or else you will regret it
It has a simple (and hence stylish) colour scheme like that of the unicorn.

What would you rate this based on your Bandai kit rating system? Be pretty funny if it got Gundarium-tier based on its price alone lol.
Could you do more reviews about the Chinese kit? 🙏Some of them are really nice :
Lone Shadow, Tastier (Hemoxian)
Sky Defender (Einta Industries)

Same problem. For me it is both the weather problem + the plastic component itself.
