Free shipping to the US. https://gundamit.com/hm-model-lightning-shield-for-rx-93-2-hi-gundam_p3372.html I paid 22.99 last year during the initial preorder. Almost a year when it got released. I thought it's not going to get produced after it got Sold Out last year. I was just surprised to find a notification from Gundamit in my email.

68whiskey Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 I ordered one too just to see what it was like. I was kind of surprised that it turned out quite well in terms of paint & quality. In terms of Bootleg factor its a very close replica to the real one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no3Ljm Posted September 10 Author Share Posted September 10 Its white color is close to the white on the feet and on the funnel wing holder. I didn't have the original so I was actually hoping that it will use the same white tone from the original shield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is difficult to judge, for example with my light the white colour looks almost the same with the original shied and the shield from the launcher set. Probably the shield from the launcher set is a bit more matt than the original shield like it is in this replica. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the shield from the launcher set is a bit more matt than the original shield like it is in this replica. If you have both originals and this KO one to compare the whites, and it's matching based on your description, then I think it's good. I know most of the figure body are different tones of grey. But the feet area and the fin holder is same white to the shield. It's the reason why for me it's throwing my eyes off and I see the shield too white next to the figure. Hope that does makes sense to my remark regarding how white the KO shield is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no3Ljm Posted September 12 Author Share Posted September 12 I took some photos of it again outside my toy cabinet. Not sure if photos would show it properly. But seeing it again on a different light, I can say that the KO Shield color is somehow creamier than the original shield. Creamier in a sense that it has more yellow tint on it compared to the whites of the original shield and the figure. I know it's not showing properly with the legs of the figure but in the photos of the shields together, you can see the subtle difference.

68whiskey Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 I was too lazy to take quality photos but here is Bandai (left) vs KO (right). I have all 3 shields and they all have slightly different shades. The KO being the most off white then the option parts shield then the polka dot shield. Bandais shades off white are a lot closer to matching though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The KO one (right) in my eye does have more yellow tint than the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
