The Poisoned 065: MNO-XH03 AO BING (FROM MOTOR NUCLEAR)

 First off, all I know about the Motor Nuclear brand is that they always release fully built models/figures. And this is a surprise to me that they have released a complete DIY model kit; runners and all. I am not sure if their other models have been like this. I never got interested in them since I always want a model kit and not a fully built figure.

Another thing that made me think is one of the builder's comment in an FB group I follow. He said that SNAA was XH01 and this [Ao Bing] was coded as XH03. In my mind, I don't think SNAA will do any "collab" with Motor Nuclear. IF AND ONLY IF they are actually partners with this kit, then why skip on XH02 and jump straight on XH03? Motor Nuclear already made a good reputation for their "Dynasty Warriors" styled models. There's no benefit for them to partner with someone since they can do it themselves. 

I tried to do some personal checking in the internet. If you search Motor Nuclear kits, the last 2 kits with 01 and 02 was Bai Qi  and Cao Ren. I will show the images below. 

MNQ-01 Bai Qi

MNQ-02 Cao Ren

It's just my personal opinion that I don't think SNAA will have a collaboration with a rival store. But in order to prove me wrong, SNAA should release a kit from XH02 and ALSO JUMP onto XH04. That would connect the dots. Otherwise, it's just a mere coincidence. 

Anyways, the box is huge and there's a lot of runners for this model. I also love the detailing on the parts. Some of them are already pre-colored. So there's no need to paint them. Even though, a separated part would be nice, Motor Nuclear, already giving the full service of painting them is a bonus for straight-builders. I also believe that the parts are undergated base on the placement of their gates. That would be nice since it would cover or hide the nub marks.

The picture also shows a few packs of separated inner frame parts. Probably die-cast metal parts for the joints. If you check the labels of the runners, you can also see the coding of MNP. So that's probably our Motor Nuclear name, but I don't know what the P stands for ('project' perhaps?).

The Poisoned 064: HIRM WING ZERO ver EW (DABAN MODEL 8825) | UPCOMING KIT!

 Well, it's not surprising to be honest. I think it was just a matter of time before they release this variant of Wing Zero, since they already released the first HIRM WZC before. The question now is, will this be better than MJH's version?

Fitting issues would be the key factors here if you want to get the kit, so maybe waiting for a while and let the other reviewers check it first. As for my end, I already pre-ordered several kits and I think I will stop for a while after I get Judge Moonlight. 

I will definitely get the kit if they released a HIRM version of Snow White prelude though..

The Poisoned 063: JUDGE MOONLIGHT by Zero Gravity (The beast has returned!)

 I am so glad that this handsome model kit has finally made its comeback, and with a new color scheme to feature. As far as I know, it still have the built metal frame along with the waterslide decals.

The color scheme isn't that far off to the original or the first one, but this is much better with the light blue on the backpack binders/cannons(?). I already pre-ordered one from a local store here in the Philippines called Neo Hobs. If you're from the Philippines, you can check their shop here in FACEBOOK (click me) or via SHOPEE (click me).

I will get the model kit probably this November or December but it's already a sure slot.

The Poisoned 062: DABAN MODEL 6647 UNIVERSE BOOSTER (upcoming new kit)

 After so many years, Daban finally copied one of the kits from Bandai that is really hard to find. I already have the Universe Booster when I bought the Build Strike, and after that, the stocks for this model started decreasing to the point that it affected the price.

I'm not saying that you should still go for the bootleg. But with stocks of Bandai's kit becoming more rare, this is your best option to build the Star Build Strike.

I would like to thank my friend for pinging this to me. We got the info from Modeljeen's page (CLICK HERE). We still need to wait when's the release, and of course how much they will cost.

The Poisoned 061b: SNAA 1/100 Hunting Falcon (New images posted in Facebook pages)

 So the kit includes 29 runners and complete with the effect parts. A friend told us, however, that the effect parts stand is only included in the 1st batch. FIRST BATCH ONLY!! So, I am not sure if the kit I ordered also have one.

Even if there aren't included, I am still excited with the kit. The parts have a lot of panel lines which is going to be good for builders who want to mask and paint it. The inner frame was mentioned as "simple" as possible and focusing more on the outer armor parts. 

I am a little worried with the Inner Frame, not because it doesn't have any fancy detailing but because if it can affect the articulation. I do hope that the Inner Frame can still feature great movement range for extreme poses.

The Poisoned 061: SNAA 1/100 Hunting Falcon (Same Makers of SUPERNOVA kits?)

 I know this is already late and a lot of blogs and other pages in Facebook already posted the prototype, but I just had to share it after the full reveal of the model. It looks good but there are so many clues about the original base of the model.

As a start, I can't help not to notice how the most of the parts resembles blitz. It's like a modified Blitz Gundam where the Gleipnir (claw-like weapon) has been transformed as a spear or glaive of sort and also as a backpack. The prototype images also featured the weapons similar to DRAGOONS.

The model number is "XH-01". So I am in high hopes that this brand [SNAA] will continue releasing more in the future. Adding the fact that the staff came from Supernova, and we know that they have really buffed the G-Wing boys, their future kits might have a similar aesthetic. And if the kit is really based from SEED models, I do look forward for a modified Strike Freedom (or at least based from it).

I already pre-ordered this kit and I hope to get it by October. I will mention the store once I got the kit.
