All New R-Center Nightingale

Hi guys/girls,

I've actually pre-ordered a few units of this RC Nightingale with scale 1/100. Yes.. it's 1/100 scale.. and is a very huge 1. :-) I've got to know this from the samuel decal post in facebook. Below pictures illustrate how big the nightingale is and also shows some of the parts of assemble for this new model kit.

R-Center is not a company that produce the model kits from BANDAI and repackage to their name. They are actually a 3rd party company that does resin kits for quite a long time already in the market. Today, they had build their first model kit which is the massive big 1/100 scale Nightingale.

As per stated in R-Center website, the first batch they had just produce 5,000 units and sell it out throughout the world. This is consider as their first batch which will entitle a free metal parts for the Nightingale thruster.


































Well, hope everyone like it.

Cheers,

First Assembling Kit Review for the year 2012

Hi everyone,

It's been since a while, that I've come out with a review for the kits that I've assembled. Well, for this time, I'm going to make a short review for SAZABI, HGUC. But of cause that the brand for this kit is non Bandai. :-) Well, Below this is the box art for the Sazabi.


The inside runners are as per the pictures below here, but due to that I forgot to take the pictures while during still in the runners, I just take from dachongs, picture. Basically it's the same.


Here goes my short review for this kit:-


Manufacturer : TT Hongli(高高模型)
Scale: 1/144
Grade: High Grade Universal Century
Mobile Suit: Sazabi
Estimated Time Completion: 4 hours
Actual Time Completion: In Progress (2 Hours)

Inner Frame
- There're no inner frame for High Grade version.

Joints/Articulation
- Joints are firm.
- Articulation is good as for High Grade, It's can bend nicely.

Exterior Armour
- Plastic is good.
- Color is nice.. not much to complain off, just that as known from the previous models, TT Hongli plastic quality is always a little harder and also the color is flatted.
- For me, I'm just Snap fit the kit, the most is just add on some touch up of silver and gold colors plus some panel lining, but if for others that want to repaint this kit.. they can just paint it to glossy colors, or even metallic.
- It's very easy to paint because of the first surface is already flat but some sanding is require before ready to paint it, due to some parts have uneven surface which are hard to notice if fit nicely.
- Snap fit every part of the kit.. There are really good fitting for the parts.

Buying Recommendation
- If you are in a budget constrain, this is a good choice.
- If you are looking forward to painting and modifying the kit, do get this :)
- This kit is cost around RM 50 to 70, where as Bandai would cost around RM 90 to RM 100, well, as for the conclusion after building this kit, it's 98% similar to Bandai. Just the outer layer plastic has different feeling to the Bandai.
- At the end,I would still say is, if you really have the money, and don't want to try other brand than Bandai, do get Original.

Cheers.
