F360 Posted January 6, 2017 Posted January 6, 2017 (edited) got this video from robot-japan forums member"zrli5027" looks like they changed all the trademark stuff, and even selling it in 2 separate boxes with a different robot in each. you can swap the parts to form Voltron?.. lol Video: www.bilibili.com/video/av7856706/ still looks good.

eggy99 Posted January 6, 2017 Posted January 6, 2017 Very hype for this. Rumoured March release (according to Aliexpress preorders). Also excited for the 1/100 Buster too now after getting the Strike / Mecha Warrior. Quote

Please let us know when and where you find this thing for sale. This is a must buy. Quote
kajnrig Posted January 6, 2017 Posted January 6, 2017 Can you guys clarify what you're talking about? Is this about the knockoff 7S/G a page back? There was also mention of a Buster Gundam? I didn't follow from a cursory glance. Quote

kajnrig Posted January 6, 2017 Posted January 6, 2017 ...yeah, I suppose I should have checked out the video before posting, eh. :/ So it's a Chinese-made figure sort of in the DX Chogokin/Metal Build spirit of figures, made by MoSho? It looks pretty good, honestly. It's a shame more of these Chinese companies have to go "under the radar," as it were. I'd think Bandai could stand to make a quick buck or two by issuing limited licenses to these companies for limited production runs of model kits/figures/etc. They do some pretty neat things. I still prefer the regular Quanta over the Full Saber, but this thing looks good in that mode, too. Quote

Though I only have minor gripe on it since the original 0 Raiser is not aligning properly on the 00 Gundam shoulder binders. And I don't want to force it since it might create some stress marks. But it's still looks good. And it's a lot tighter than the original Seven Sword figure. In case you didn't know, Bandai is already announced they're going to produce an original 00 Qant. Minus the Saber Swords option. I'm already PO'ed this 3P 00 Qant but I'm still in for an original one. Quote
anime52k8 Posted January 6, 2017 Posted January 6, 2017 I'd like to get a 00 seven sword and not have to pay $400+ but all the places selling this KO look so shady. BTW, is it weird that I want the KO 00 Qan[T] just to have the little robot dude it comes with? he's so god damn cute. Quote

no3Ljm Posted January 6, 2017 Posted January 6, 2017 Snapshots from the video and things worth noticing: ^ Instead of 00Q markings, it's 0O0. ^ Comparisons between Master Grade and MoShow's. ^ Different Celestial Being markings on MoShow's. ^ Interesting FILTSAILEBING marking. ^ Look Bandai! No need for clear support arm. ^ Nice details ^ He tried to shake it and the top part fell off. Looks like the metal connector are kinda short and shallow. Have to be careful in this section. ^ Same thing with the Saber Sword backpack. For some reasons the connectors are kinda short. But it does look like it locks somehow. Quote
anime52k8 Posted January 6, 2017 Posted January 6, 2017 The off brand markings just ruin it for me. really unfortunate too since it looks great otherwise (minus the whole ripping the toy in half thing which was kind of disconcerting). Quote
eggy99 Posted January 7, 2017 Posted January 7, 2017 It is funny there will be 3 Metal Build Quanta Gundams now. MoShow, Fan-Made, and Bandai's official release. I'm interested to get all 3 just to compare them against each other. Here is the Fan Made release under their Metal Saga brand - named "Turris Babel" Quote
chyll2 Posted January 7, 2017 Posted January 7, 2017 I actually prefer the Fan made version. It is re-stylized a bit. The moshow looks like a modified MG with plastic strips here and there. What I hate about the Moshow is the elongated facemask. Quote

Expand Yeah, I can definitely see that making the figure a no-buy for a lot of people (both the markings and the poor construction). I like that Turris Babel quite a bit. The Full Saber looks to have been significantly reworked, and it actually looks really good now (at least in the above photo). I agree with chyll2's assessment; compared to the Fanmade, the MoSho looks just like a slightly pla-plated Master Grade. (Also that splayed hand looks funky.) Quote

Is this released or in still preorder? But... I rather have '0O0' on the green clear sensors rather than 'Turris Babel'. Hehehe. Quote
eggy99 Posted January 7, 2017 Posted January 7, 2017 I think it is still preorder stage for release end of Jan or Feb. I'm checking if my local supplier can source the Turris Babel. Quote
F360 Posted January 7, 2017 Posted January 7, 2017 The Metal Sage version looks pretty nice too, but their quality control is nowhere near as good as moshow. Quote
no3Ljm Posted January 7, 2017 Posted January 7, 2017 Is there an online store that holds the PO for the Metal Sage one? Curious to see how much. Quote
eggy99 Posted January 7, 2017 Posted January 7, 2017 (edited) I've only seen a Singapore store, DewToyStore http://dewtoystore.com/index.php/fanmade-fan-made-1-100-turris-babel.html Can't confirm if they are trustworthy or not.

eggy99 Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 Anyone know if the 00Raiser KO has the Seven Swords markings or 00Raiser markings? I only have 2x of Seven Swords (1 with 0 Raiser attached and the other displayed as vanilla 00). Quote

eggy99 Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 Thanks for comparison pics F360. Much appreciated. I always regretted a little not picking up the new marking 00 Raiser release, and then offloading my Seven Swords to cover the cost of the 00 Raiser. OH YES! I will be up for a Trans Am 00 Raiser. That will match up nicely with my set of Exia's (vanilla Exia, Repair 1, and Trans Am). Only issue is that 00 Gundam is it's so massive with the 0 Raiser attached that 3 00 Gundams wouldn't fit in my Detolf - It barely fits the vanilla 00 and 00 Raiser. Maybe need to do that side by side Detolf hack one day to get double width detolf. Quote

But if the stands are the problem then I guess all we have to do is use YetiStand to mount multiple Gundams in one stand. Quote
