    Based on my experiences, if it's HG (1/144), Bandai(Original) is usually a better choice. You need good snapfits for those smaller parts. For MG, if you're experienced, you can work on many 3rd party disadvantages because of bigger parts, and sometimes you'll get better looking ones (Dragon Momoko Wing series, Destiny, Daban's Freedom & Strike Freedom). They sometimes model it from Metal Build. RG? No 3rd party can copy that yet :)

    My girlfriend Buyed for me the XingDong aerial, it's my first Gundam toy and most of the things are true, the ball joint details specially but after all, I'm so glad that she spent that money, I'll apreciate for all my life this gift, and doesn't matter if I buy a better Quality aerial (the full mechanics or the Bandai original) I'll have the XingDong at his side, because it's a really good alternative, maybe after buying another aerial I'll try to sand and fix the little details with this one, but now, I'm happy and enjoying a lot my first gundam :3

    If you want a full experience, go for the Bandai
    If you just want a display model, go for the Xingdong
    If you want something to play around, go for the GaoGao(warning: only take this route if you are experienced with bootlegs).
    Tbh, TThongli did make a progress with this line, their plastic is not as thicc and britle as before. However, this is still a product of TThongli, so you still need skill and knowledge to deal with it. Just be careful and it'll be good to go.

    I tried them
    Gaogao: claim they're super cheap for what they offer. Truth? Not one bit! Quality is worse than HG, but you can get old HG for the same price if not less.
    Bandai: definitely not cheap, especially if you must import them like me from third party stores. Newer kits are praised but I couldn't afford one yet. RG Epyon is on my mind.
    Xingdong: Got me suspicious it was authorised for a bit. If it's all you can afford, get it. Not great, but very reasonable price for quality.

      Depends on where you live. If you can get the bandai for a reasonable price then go for it. However if it is constantly selling at 2x the srp on your area (like where i live) then go for the gaogao instead. For context, Gaogao aerial (without the mirasoul flight unit) costs around $4 here while the bandai sells for $20. I built 2 of the gaogao ver and they were solid as a rock. Build experience was smooth as butter too.

    I just bought the Gaogao one yesterday. TWFM is the first Gundam anime I've watch and I've always wanted to have a Aerial. The Bandai HG Aerial was too expensive for me, and I waited so long for a bootleg version of it. And I finally got my hand to it. The first time building a gundam is a wonderful experience. The god damn head is too tight, I had to sand it a lot, and the yellow part of the head left out a plenty of space. The body part was better, but the legs were a disaster. The knee joints were super tight, so when I realized I flipped the knee, it was so mess up. Took me 1 hour to tear them apart only to realize that the calfs were still flipped . I thought I have to tear them again, 2 hours of trying in vain until I finally realized I can just flip it over. The stickers are suck. Wrong size and not even stick to the plastic. But when I finally assembled them, my heart was filled with joy. Glad that my first Gundam building experience was so fun with a cheap bootleg.
