Loot & News

As what I mentioned earlier in my previous post, I went to Midvalley today to COD a MG Lukas Strike E + IWSP today, and here it is! XD

If you haven't read my earlier post, I got this at RM130, much lower than usual price =D.

Some updates in the gunpla world(Namely bootleg gunpla =P), the Mcmodel Ex-S Gundoom is finally released in China on July 22! I've already pre-ordered a unit from Nicholas Chua, and the stocks are expected to arrive sometime next week XD. He's unable to confirm the price yet, but other sellers are setting the price around RM50-60. The price range is very very good, and hopefully Nic's price will be in that range, or better, less =P.
Here are pictures of the SD Ex-S Gundoom in colours from the web, as previously I've only shown the uncoloured prototype.








*A LED unit will included in the kit, which is used to light up the eyes. It is said the LED will only be included as a premium item for the first production batch only, much like as in Hi-Nu Gundoom

There's another soon to be released special edition version which comes in orange-red colour scheme with hot rod style fire decals pre-painted.


Another big news is from the bootleg king company, TT Hongli. It is said that they hired designers from VP, a conversion kit producer in Korea to design their new MG 1/100 Hi-Nu. TT is following Mcmodel's footstep in taking resin conversion kits' design and making them into plastic kits.
Here are some pics of the supposedly their new Hi-Nu(Named Hi-Nu VP for now).



It is said that TT is going to use back the inner frame of the original MG Hi-Nu inner frame, with the outer armour being the new desgin.
I've seen people mentioned on web that TT also copy-righted this design, though would it render Bandai unable to file a lawsuit against them is questionable.

Lastly, the news on TT's next bootleg kit of Bandai's, is to be a HG ORX-005 Gaplant TR-5. Good news as the Bandai kit of it is very rare and costly.

That's it for updates!
