They're great, I've used them a couple times.

Either Burning's a way crappier kit than everyone's let on, or BanDai's QC department hates me. The legs constantly fall off, the shoulder pop out, the waist pops apart, the backpack falls off, and that all before you start messing with the effect parts. The little side flames do not stay on the punch effects, the pegs on all of them are wayyy to small. I haven't even tried to do anything with the kick effect, but I'm sure that one'll be just as much of a pain in the ass. It's amazing that a kit as good-looking, fun to build, and poseable as the Burning could be this awful.

My 2nd Build Burning felt just as great the first time I built my first one, and trust me I wouldn't buy a second crappy kit of the same Gundam even if I love it a lot in the show. Double check the pegs and joints and make sure you really tighten them things in, I thought Lightning Gundam was a crappy kit till I found I didn't tighten him correctly on his waist and hips joints and he turned out to be really good.

Despite what others say, me personally I find them to be very reliable in the gunpla department... I mean that's what the advertise the most on their website anyways.

If it works it works if it don't it don't. Last edited by SPLIT LIP; 01-06-2015 at 12:33 PM.. |

Half way done RG Exia:
The most frustrating yet amazing Gunpla I think I have the pleasure I own. Seriously, nothing about this guy seems loose or is about to fall off despite my earlier screw ups and several shake tests. |

Yeah that would be a screw up on my part, too lazy to take it apart to fix it so I'm leaving it as is.

It'll probably be less noticeable once the whole kit's built, anyway.
