QY SD God Gundam - Mini WIP, Assembly Cure and Review

Thank GOD I'm back! Lumix is back and my GunPla energy has been over the top! I'm feeling good this morning and built Gundam Alex.

Well more on that next time, but again, thank GOD I can finally review my QY God Gundam!

Starting off, here is the box of QY's bootleg of God Gundam (Deitg Warrior).

Unboxing this miniscule kit, there are only 5 runners along with the polycaps.

..And here's my bootleg Unicorn (mfg by Jargon), envious why he does not have a review.

Issue 01: Starting off our assembly cure, carefully shave off the chest piece by a hobby knife to snugly fit it into the chest armor.

Issue 02: Like most of my QY kits, head continues to be problematic. Cut the male connectors and apply glue to the seams.

Issue 03: Waist armor male connectors are too thick. Shave by a hobby knife or sand it down to fit the pieces.

Issue 04: Arms too have fitting issues. Cut the male connectors and then glue. Make sure you do not forget the poly cap when gluing!

Issue 05: Whew, a bunch of fitting issues, leg also needs to be glued. Cut / shave then glue.

That's about it with the cures. Straight assemble from here on and a few touch ups to add details. Notice I hate using stickers and as much as possible I use paint for the color touch ups.

Here it is! REEAAADY??! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Wow. Just wow. SD's can look so cute and BAD ASS at the same time!

Happy with the results. A pretty clean build for me there. RAAAAY GUUUN! Wut?!

Core Lander looks wicked

Domon Kasshu docks at his Gundam!

God Gundam: Yosh!

Peace man!

Hyper Saiyan Mode!! Aaaaahhhh!!!!

Ore no kono te ga Makka ni Mueru!! Shouri wo tsukameto todoroki sakebu!! Bakunetsu God Finggaaaaa!!!!!

Pros:

This kit is made to do that final pose with his arms tucked in looking ready to FIGHT!

That said, arms are moveable side to side (YES! In an SD kit!).

Arms can also bend and is attached by a polycap. Again, this is the only SD kit I've seen who does not have his arms in one solid piece.

Legs also have better articulation compared to most SD's I've seen.

Core Lander looks great.

God Gundam's arms came with translucent orange (personal pick)

In short, articulation will blow you away if you're a fan of SD's.

Cons:

QY messed up this kit with a bunch of fitting issues -- not that hard to fix, can't help but compare to their 0 Gundam which has pretty minor fixes. All in all, still good.

Hands does not come with close fists. I could have thought of better poses if I have those, though it says in the manual that the MG God Gundam's hands are compatible with this kit :)

God Gundam really rocks in the looks department. It stands out in my collection especially his burning fists. The design is unique and has shades of muscularity and street fighter in a robot body. You can never go wrong picking this kit up. This is the best articulated SD kit with his arms that bend and legs that are mechanically set up far wide apart for extreme poseability (I wish it came with closed fists).
