    The sword/sheath combos are so MGR Raiden-esque. Love it.

    I love Neco's character designs. Recently got the Figma version for JPY8500. Since it was released first, it didn't come with the alt hairstyle, mask, and some of the weapon option parts, sadly.

    Something I would've been interested to see is some size comparisons to other Mecha Musume style model kits, just to see how this kit scales to kits from other lines.

    • @ZakuAurelius
      @ZakuAurelius  Рік тому +7

      TALL~ definitely taller than Megami Decive/ATK/Nuke Matrix. Similar to Frame Arms Girl or the taller MS General characters

    I love Neco's design I have everyone from the figma line. I can't really afford the scale figures and I'm not into static figures but hope to get one someday. This new model kit line also looks promising. If Ichi got made I hope Shi also gets one with an improve loadout seeing as Ichi got an additional sword, hairstyle and face mask with this release.

    I saw one of these at a Bic Camera in Tokyo when I was there last month and I said, "I don't need this" but now I want it and USD prices are so much more than if I had just bought it then and there oh well lol

    Design reminds me of Alpha/Lucia from PGR. The feet looks like from Plume frame and the sword sheath from Crimson Weaver frame. 😀

    I think the broken english is trying to say she has something similar to the Alaya-Vijnana from IBO. Though what use that will be with static swords is beyond me. Maybe the swords fly around like bits/funnels which would explain why she has so many.

    I just got this today, thanks for the review I am excited to start mine. Question is she the same size as the figma? I ask cause I saw cool bike for this series, but it is for the figma versions.

  • @r8420hp
    @r8420hp Рік тому

    The proportions are much better than the figma. Definitely an improvement.
    Shame GSC still insists on painting swords on the runner, meaning the gates are unpainted and the whole thing has to be repainted anyway. They did the same with the Moderoid Escaflowne and it was just as useless back then.

    7:53 are there clear lenses in the swappable eye parts? If yes, It do kinda reminds me of HG Fumina kits with moving Doll-eye tracking functionality.

    Im currently building this kit and it's awesome. However, I do want to paint the black knives and sword...
    Is it ok to use Gundam Markers? I have GM22 Metallic Gun color but these are alcohol bases and the manual for Ichi states water based paint should be used...
    I tested it on some runners but I'm afraid of doing it in the parts cause some risk of cracking of weakening the parts
    Anyone knows if it's ok to use thise markers?

    Is this cheaper than figma or much more expensive?

  • @aidandix7296
    @aidandix7296 Рік тому

    Looks awesome but it's the price stopping me. Its going for like £65 on (about $80) and for me that's a real steep entry price considering how much you get from a gundam in the same price range.
    I still have soo many MGs and RGs to buy and build so I can't justify that price at the moment.

  • @xnflg3074
    @xnflg3074 Рік тому

    As someone who was very excited to pick this up and ponied up the $100 ridiculously high price of entry, this kit _sucks_. Nothing about it feels satisfying, faceplates (other than the mask one) are bad, the hairstyles are lazily rendered (ponytail can rotate for example but that causes it to not match up at the rotation point which looks jarring), there is an inexcusable lack of color separation/requisite detail painting for the price, and the pre-painted pieces are numerous and poorly-designed. And yes, I did snap the tie right in half despite knowing it was going to be a problem; that thing is fragile as hell and doesn't even look good anyway due to its "fixed pose." I have never broken a piece on any MD/Nuke Matrix/MS General/ATK Girl kit I've ever built and somehow with this being only the second Plamax kit I've bought, it's also the only other one I've ever broken a piece on. I broke a joint on the Maidroid Miao's skirting armor and there is no conceivable way I can fix it at this point without losing entire levels of articulation. Same goes for the tie; even cement doesn't work because the pre-painted aspect of it leaves it looking obvious. Not sure how Zack pulled it off.
    I'm done with Plamax stuff; no thanks.
