Thats my problem as well,.I couldnt find one Daban archive in any site thay has a list of what they have released so far so I researched and compiled everything they have released and made it into one video. Good thing is I will be updating their line up every year as well so we could keep track of all the knockoff/third party kits released by Non Bandai Companies
@EnmaRyuzawa98 yes, all MG by Daban Model will be the 88XX but I think they rleased some variants of the 66XX series (color pallet changes), they usually name it 66XXA or 66XXS, but newly produced MG will be on 88XX series
That's great Sir Joe. I wanted to create a video for people to check the list of bootlegs they might be looking for and create an archive for these bootleggers. Such thing has never been done before here in youtube but of course, when it comes to in depth detailed review, we always got your channel for that ☺️☺️☺️
Thank you Sir Joe, you know what, I even wanted to tackle the Bendi era, but those bootleg kits seems a stuff of legend now as its hard to find even a decent photos of them online
@@HyperWeaponHobby I agree,the plastic quality alone is a improvement, it's a 7/10 if you compare it to bandai,it still maybe requirement to sand the pegs before attaching them,but it's minimal now,there still minor issues like pieces not connecting,but it can be remedied, I can't wait to finish this building this kit
Sanding pegs or widening holes are necessary adjustment that you have to incorporate when building bootlegs. If you made it past that, you'll get a unique kit that is even Different from what Bandai is giving us
The Daban Impulse is an 88XX series and somehow unique and Daban has modified them by their own standards. It eill definitely be harder yo find compatability with Bandai kits for it unlike when they released direct copies from Bandai.
GILMAG!!! GOD I LOVE MASTER GRADES If we're talkin' about master grades, might as well plug this guy in. Not in the list, but I love the MG Tallgeese for its silhouette, vibe, and overall simplicity of design and color scheme.
Sadly, all Tallgeese MG belong in the 66XX list but maybe Daban can make a Tallgeese Flugel for the 88XX series instead with updated details instead of just slapping Wing Zero's wing on it
I have a hunch the Tallgeese Flugel will come, Daban already has the assets for that, otherwise Supernova will beat them to it while they keep on beating us with more MG Unicorns 🤣🤣🤣
I have the astrea and it was my first MG, the thing was even more of a total pain to build due to my inexperience but the thing is, bar none, the coolest thing I have ever built as of now. I just wish you could hold stuff with the hands.
MG Astrea regardless if its the Type f or the normal is pretty b@da$$ ☺️. Being your first MG and a bootleg as well, Im guessing it really took a toll on your building experience. But regardless on what you have experoence, I bet that you wwre extremely satisfied when you seen it built for the first time and of course that in itself is something you can be proud of ☺️
Seems like a suckered for punishment... My 1st 144 was the rg astray, my 1st 100 was a bootleg astrea, at the rate I'm going if I ever get a pg it'll probably be some giant pain in the ass like the Daban perfectability. 😭
Well that's the catch, you can get a PG cheaper than what Bandai ia offering but you'll definitely need the extra paitence and skills to build that one. So I say go for the skills and patience, its free and will benefit you in the long term
I've been patiently waiting on a properly scaled 1/100 Devil Gundam. I honestly don't care if it's done by Bandai or Daban at this point. But with the 8827 Wing Zero Snow White, I'm hoping they'll continue the 88XX line with the other Frozen Teardrop MS.
1/100 Devil Gundam, thats gonna be really dope, I mean I would defonitely would get one but it seems tgats a high risk gamble on their so theyll just throw us another Unicorn and Wing Gundam again 🤣
i love the f91 ! im planning to get a mr model powered red soon as my 1st bootleg kit , if you have made a mr model powered red any tips or info that i can use ? I had been looking for SN heavyarms custom but couldnt find it.
I havent made a mr model powered red yet but damn, that was a nice choice of.a first bootleg kit if you really gonna build that. SN Heavyarms is kinds hard to find now, may be SN will reprint some soon
Been waiting for an archive type video of their 88xx line. Some of Daban's redesign of the MGs IMO is a lot better visually, aside from the fitting issues of course 🤣
I want to archive Bendi bootlegs. Sadly their stuff is more legendary than Dragon Momoko's kits 🤣🤣🤣. It sucks that they released those abominations of knockoff during the pre internet era
Bendi is more legendary than DM in terms of rarity but quality-wise, its the cr@ppiest of all 🤣🤣🤣. Can't blame it though, itss the founding bootleg kit and all
Always test fit pegs and holes and joints ☺️. If its tight i sand it, file it or adjust it. It saves you from frustration. Bootleg kits are hardmode Gunplas 🤣
I heard back then and I still remember there will be a 2 new daban 88 series, the strike freedom soul blue and destiny MB. I honestly want to have destiny but beside the unknown release date, nowaday other Chinese company like motor nuclear has been showing their full potential in model kit market like aobong and caoren. My god I don't think I can hold on my wallet for this until September where Bandai will have a new RG Epyon
Indeed, an MB Destiny would be nice to have. The DM Destiny was the best so far that we have in terms of 3rd party kits but that kit is almost extinct and only a very few remains in the market. Daban should released that otherwise, motor nuclear and other uprising competitors may sweep the competions. RG Epyon will definitely be epic but I wanted an RG Wing Zero TV version as well ☺️
It depends on your location. In our country, Daban kits can be bought online at shopee.com and lazada.com. There are lots of shop that sell these products
So I’m very very interested in 8803 double x if anyone reading this has built that kit specifically please feel free to share your experience with it. I’m 3months into building gunpla and I see the creator of this lovely video mentioned that Daban kits are, Bandai kits on hard mode. I acknowledge and accept this challenge I’m very ready for what’s to come I’ve heard daban isn’t the best with quality but that’s fine by me I love a challenge.
I prefer the Daban kits, they have more details, less need to make additional scribe lines and adding detailing parts. Altho some parts need some modification like trimming etc etc its not that hard to do, it still looks better when done compared to my Bandai kits. for Daban kits, it is better to paint them first since some parts are a pain in the ass to disassemble
Yes, there have been some few MG grunt kits, most of them are zakus or some variant mono eyes though. You can check it out on my video list on bootleg master grades
Is there a trusted place I can get daban models in America? I’ve seen a few websites but I didn’t know if they were legit or not. As I’ve never bought a daban model I couldn’t be sure if I was being scammed or not. Anything helps, appreciate it and thanks for the informative video!
Thank you so much. Its unfortunate that i am lacking knowledge on where to get these kits in America. In our country, they are almost everywhere. But if I recall correctly, Prime92 always have copies of these latest bootlegs ne it Daban or any Brand (although I think she lives in Canada). I think she get her kits at gundamcentral.com. That's one site i can assure you can get these kits and hoped it can also cover the delivery in your area
@@HyperWeaponHobby thank you so much! I’ve seen that sight before but didn’t know if it was trustworthy! I think I’m gonna go with Qan(T) Full saber and see how it goes. If it’s bad I’ll still have the added parts to make my MG Qan(T) the Full Saber version lol

Its decent and somewhat okay at best considering its price range
That's the redeeming factor with Daban nowadays. They put additional details where Bandai didnt. Its a good hook instead of just ripping off a kit directly from Bandais releases
Im not entirely sure what the official daban website is. Maybe theyre trying to lie low and a website.doesnt.exist or.maybe its in chinese that we cannot directly access it. However, you may want to check www.gundamfreestyle.com, its a thailand based site but offers a wide arrange of bootleg and third party kits from all manufacturers
Hi I'm from Philippines as well. I usually procure Daban Model Kits online, particularly, in shopee or lazad but most at shopee. There are lots of awesome store over there such as hobbywang, hobby168, toysph, gundamph, and tchobby that still have a huge collections of available Gundam daban kits
Unicorn Gundam Final Super Special Hyper Finished Extra Shields and Weapon Version 🤣🤣. I think Daban has released more unicorn Gundam than the entire set of Supernova kits
The astray red frame is definitely a very popular kit. Just like Bandai, Daban Model is just reusing assets and just adding a few new parts. However, Daban had it easy with the development since Bandai has already done that for them 🤣🤣🤣
When Dadan make part line, create mg mobile suit that Bandai never made, create mg as 2.0 and add something badass even equipment is better than Bandai.
@@HyperWeaponHobby I'm actually partway through both builds but they are on hiatus, body and majority of weapons done just need to do the rest of the weapons!, they just have soo much! 8826 was my 1st bootleg kit, and its a challenging kit as you have to sand it alot and widen holes, I also made parts tighter that were loose and had to used metallic sharpies for the nubs, but I loved it!
The effort youre giving to your st bootleg is the same that i would do if I were to build it. The 8826 is the Astray Gold Frame Amatsu Hana right? It is a very wonderful kit and I haven't build one yet. Hoped i could take a sneak peek when youre done 😍. Post it on instagram or any public social media
Well, DM, Hobby Star and Daban Model released MG Exia Avalanche and each of their released are somewhat unique on its own way. The DM one though is rare and its fortunate to those who were able to get it
Delusional! Daban won't exist withou Bandai you damn fool. Bandai don't need to worry about daban and Daban is no near shutting Bandai down. Not even in your wildest dream, morooooon.
Too bad none exist in countries I can pay them to get to here; Indonesia, Malaysia (rare), Singapore, Thailand (rare) and Philippines have them but they do not accept my payments… I don’t speak Mandarin nor Nihongo, so forget asking the actual areas where they might exist…
I thought bootlegs are distributed equally in southeast asian countries? I mean we are near China, the country who made these kits so i thought acquiring these kits are easiee compare with other countries
@@HyperWeaponHobby Easier for those who speak the language and are able to pay from them internationally, sure Otherwise, effectively, I'm currently in a position where I have the money, I can (metaphorically) see it right in front of me, yet I can't get it because they don't accept my money due to specific (sometimes local-only payment methods) payment requirements...
@@HyperWeaponHobby I'm Middle-Eastern; Gundam is, in comparison, at its peak of popularity in the UAE. UAE has official distributors, so Bandai; bootlegs are unheard of in the region (except for the Asians that are hobbyists and happen to live in Middle Eastern countries). Regarding the other countries, they are following suit (getting things officially, no bootlegs). So no, unless someone decides to open a shop and sells both official and bootlegs, or only bootlegs - such can only happen whence the hobby itself is as big as it is in Japan and other Asian countries (which currently, it isn't)
Oh Im sorry about that, I assumed you were in south east asia. If Bandai is dominating the market in UAE, its a huge financial risks for China to distribute kits over there unless like you said if theres someone who are willing to open their shop to sell bootleg kits though. Southeast asia is the feasible market for bootleg kits, the logistics advantage due to distance, the buying capability of the demograph due to the economy of their countries and of course, the culture ofnthe fans that loved Gundams and yet cant afford to buy the legit product. If I were in UAE, theres no reason for me to get Knockoffs if Bandai is easily and economically available unless of course I would get those one of a kind unique kits that Daban release from time to time which of course i will buy it offshore. But thanks for the information regarding the status of Gunplas in UAE

Daban is known for cool and awesome remodels but building was always the major flaw.
Yep, its Gunpla on hardmode 🤣🤣🤣. Its a medieval torture devifce but so satisfactory when you build it
Even more so for someone like me who paints my kits.
Tight fits are one of a painter's worst enemies.
My only complaint with the Daban Impulse is that the Silhouette packs are not compatible with the Eclipse and Bandai Outframe.
The Daban Impulse is an 88XX series and somehow unique and Daban has modified them by their own standards. It eill definitely be harder yo find compatability with Bandai kits for it unlike when they released direct copies from Bandai.
