nightmareB4macross Posted Sunday at 04:05 PM Posted Sunday at 04:05 PM I’m sure most every self respected Macross model kit collector has this. Or do they? Not mine, so I’m not respectable. Quote
Shawn Posted Sunday at 08:04 PM Posted Sunday at 08:04 PM Most definitely do not have this kit. Where did you find it? Are there any others? Need more info please. Shawn Quote
nightmareB4macross Posted Sunday at 08:24 PM Author Posted Sunday at 08:24 PM This came up on my FB feed. I don’t know much about it, but thought I would share due to its strange blue plastic. I do believe it did come out of Taiwan. Quote
Shawn Posted Sunday at 11:12 PM Posted Sunday at 11:12 PM Its a knock off of the Arii 1/5000 kit for the casual readers, not cast in the original light blue-gray, but in a deep blue and white, which is pretty neat. I like how they removed the copyright bigwest text on the bottom right of the instruction sheet, because you know, its a KNOCK OFF Quote
505thAirborne Posted Monday at 03:30 AM Posted Monday at 03:30 AM So, is it 1/3000 or 1/5000 scale? Your title says 1/3000. Quote
Shawn Posted Monday at 04:15 AM Posted Monday at 04:15 AM Its a 1/5000 kit but post says 1/3000 and Box says 1/5000 and 1/8000 jeez keep up already Quote
Bolt Posted Monday at 04:40 AM Posted Monday at 04:40 AM Wow. That's priceless. I want one now.! Quote
sketchley Posted Monday at 05:29 AM Posted Monday at 05:29 AM I "like" how they went to all the effort to remove the copyright and replace the ARII logo—even going to far as to put the safety instructions in Chinese (in the bright yellow box)—but they can't be bothered with the domestic Japanese number for paint inquires. 🙄 Begs the question: did the bootlegger have some kind of connection with Hobby Color? 🤔 Quote
pengbuzz Posted Tuesday at 05:36 PM Posted Tuesday at 05:36 PM Keep in mind it has no elbow joints; you'll have to put those in yourself. :) Quote
