[Coming Soon] Hemoxian Over Zero Series Batman Arkham Knight Model Kit [Comment]

rico soul: This is part of the Over Zero series like Tastier and Lone Shadow and the boxer Baki that was also announced. These kits are all designed by the NoneZero Studios design team which is what really put Hemoxian on the map for model kit fans.

When Tastier first came out, there were Batman resin kits to make it an Arkham Knight Batman. Not sure if that was the original inspiration for this but Hemoxian manages to get the IP license to make this Arkham Knight model kit in the Over Zero line.

No release window or price or other details have really been announced yet but the grey model prototype was shown on display the WF recently. We'll have to see how the IP license may affect the final price but typically, NoneZeroStudios kits in the Over Zero line have been 188RMB for the full package, and their other kit, the Thor was also at the 199RMB price range. So hopefully this Batman will not be too expensive.

I'll comment again if I see any updates

rico soul: lol this feel like kind of an ugly take on major Kusanagi, especially for the price. I guess the combat suit is really not as attractive as her standard leotard and kind of makes her look chubby

rico soul: I really like the design of this. It has a very nice super robot vibe that speaks to fans of gundams but doesn't ripoff the gundam head design too much. The bulkiness is just enough to give it a heavily armored look without making it look too top heavy.

I'm looking forward to seeing how this will turn out.

rico soul: So the regular edition of this kit has sold out now and while the collectors edition is still up for preorder, it's difficult to say when they will actually ship since it seems like they are having some supply chain issues with the die cast parts.

Well I guess we can still talk a bit about this based on some things to watch out for when you get yours based on experience my friends and other have got from building the regular version.

First and most importantly, be careful with the shoulder joints. They are very fragile. The plastic moving parts that allow you to pull out the arm is simply very thin and small and relatively thin (see pictures). I don't believe these are part of the die-cast parts from the released photos but maybe they still have time to change that. Lots of people have been finding that this shoulder joint cracks very easily.

Otherwise, the overall fit and finish is sold. The molding is some of the best that can be found anywhere. The inner frame is fairly complex and there's a lot of moving parts. Some armor pieces are a bit loose and can fall off though. The knees are a bit weak but this thing is pretty much only going to be displayed on the included action base with that giant backpack.

I am definitely looking forward to getting mine and hopefully they can start shipping soon.

rico soul: So I haven't really heard too much about this model kit yet beyond just the CG promo photos that have been posted here. The design looks more reminiscent of the YJL Amazing Exia GK rather than the Premium Bandai MG Amazing Exia.

However, while the design seems to be the same as the YJL GK, it just doesn't look as good. I don't know if it's just due to the CG renders but we will have to see where this goes. Hope they release some grey model promo images soon.

I'll attach the p-bandai and yjl amazing exia photos here for reference and you can judge for yourself.

rico soul: uh....I think people might be a bit confused about what this is. This is a commissioned work.

You are paying someone to go build and custom paint a Bandai MG FAZZ ver ka with the SH studio resin conversion kit. That's why the cost is relatively high and the deposit is not refundable. You are paying for labor.

If you were only interested in the resin conversion kit for the FAZZ, and want to build and paint it yourself, gundamit has that listed separately at: gundamit.com/sh-studio-upgrade-gk-for-mg-bandai-fa010a-fazz_p1934.html

rico soul: Hemoxian just provided an update on this Thor kit and it looks like Gundamit was on top of it with the picture updates. Good job!

So here's the other details released by the manufacturer:

Contents and accessories:
- Main body (partially pre-painted runners)
- Two hand cannons
- Backpack
- Giant hammer
- LED for the head
- waterslide decals

In addition, as a bonus, the initial print will contain extra colorless clear parts and the cape shown in the pictures.

Total parts count is 488.

Seems like it would be a solid build without being overly complicated. I'm looking forward to the final product.

HS GNY-001 Astraea Gundam Model Kit [Comment]

rico soul: Early reviews of this are in.
So it's pretty much just a direct color swap of the HS red astraea type-f avalanche kit and all the same problems are here. Even the clear type-f mask and GN hammer is included on the runners

So for people unfamiliar with the HS red Astraea avalanche from before, you can build both the base astraea and the avalanche version.

So notable negatives are:
- The swords are painted on the runners so there will be visible nub marks after cutting them out
- nub placement on the kit can be in poorly designed places so nub cleanup can be a bit of a pain
- frame is based on the MG Exia frame and even though the ankles are modified it can still be a bit floppy if displaying without an action base
- reviews say the joints are decently tight out of the box for different poses, but I know for the red avalanche before, people had complained about joins sagging over time.

No LED is included in this kit, but it would be compatible with any MG Exia compatible LED

I've always liked the aesthetics of the HS Astraea even though it's not a direct rip of the metal build design. Since it's mostly compatible with the Exia metal frame kits, a lot of the joint issues can be fixed.
