Mcmodel RX-93 Hi-Nu Gundoom - Unboxing

Model Comprehend Model, or Mcmodel in short, is a China company that make their own Gundam kits designs.
Unlike TT Hongli or GaoGao, where they copy exactly Bandai's parts and design.
Though their kits are still count as bootleg because they don't have the license to produce and distribute Gundam products, lol

This Mcmodel HG 1/144 RX-93 Hi-Nu Gundoom is their 3rd product to be released.
Their first was HG 1/144 RX-93 Nu Gundoom, and the 2nd was SD Nightingale.

My first impression of the Mcmodel RX-93 Hi-Nu Gundoom's box: BIG
According to Mcmodel's grading it's only HG and 1/144 scale, but the box's size was way much bigger than most Bandai's MG boxes

Front view and back view:


*The box art is very nice in my opinion, much nicer than Bandai's MG Hi-Nu. And the back of the box, EPIC beautiful!!! This is a plus for China makers, unlike Bandai giving boring plain back. Thinking of cutting the back out and use it as a wallpaper =P.
Just too bad with the word "Gundoom" makes it awkward XD

Top/bottom/side view:



*Top and bottom view are the same, so I'm showing 1 only

Size comparison with Bandai MG ReZEL Commander-Type box:


*As you can see, in terms of height they are almost the same, with the Hi-Nu box higher by a cm! The width of the ReZEL box is slightly wider than Hi-Nu's, but the depth/thickness of the Hi-Nu is way more than the ReZEL, lol!

The Hi-Nu's box opens at the sides with flap covers, unlike standard Bandai boxes where the boxart is the top cover and is taken out whole.


The inner box:

*Beats me how they translate the chinese words into "Special Collectible for The First Time", it doesn't sound right to me, and they couldn't have used google translate cause google translate gave "First Edition Premiere", lol

The cover of the inner box contains the special parts provided in the first batch production of this kit



View of inside of inner box and the contents:


*The box contents feels empty. The runners and manual aren't many enough to fill up the box, so I'm guessing the purpose of them using such a big box is as a marketing gimmick only.
There are a total of 16 runners including the special beams runner. That's alot for a HG!

The special parts given for first batch production includes a set of special beams for beam saber, a set of water decals, and the main attraction, wing effects parts and booster effects parts.

*The wings effects parts are damn awesome! In the manual there's pics of Hi-Nu posing with the wings effects and the result is darn cool!!! Can't wait to assemble it and see the results with my own eyes XD

That's all for the unboxing of Mcmodel RX-93 Hi-Nu Gundoom. Most likely will post some Work-in-progress(WIP) posts on this, stay tune!
