Muscle Bear Metal Build MBF-P02 Gundam Astray Red Frame + Flight Unit [Dragon Backpack] Review

This Muscle Bear metalbuild bootleg product has code-named "Red Warrior". Muscle Bear is a pirated manufacturer previously known as MC, Metal Club or Metal Gear.

Finishing

The biggest difference this time is that the whole body painting is used. Because as we all know, the original white and black parts are high-gloss plastic color, and there is no paint color.

However, these unpainted areas look too smooth and shiny, giving them a gummy feel, which greatly reduces the effect. The manufacturer also noticed this problem, so they deliberately made improvements on the product, and painted the parts that were not painted on the original version. The effect has improved a lot.

The overall color separation of the painting is very clear. At present, except for the detail on the top of the head that has been missed, there is basically no other paint leakage, and because it has been painted as a whole, the effect is indeed more comfortable, and The paint surface is also very strong, and I haven't found any problems such as peeling paint in the current round of play.

Movability and Articulation

The overall joints are very tight and some are still too tight, and all kinds of playing are basically no problem. The original antenna installation tenon is too short, causing the antenna to fall off easily.

The manufacturer also corrected it accordingly and lengthened the combined tenon. After installing it, there will be no more problems of easy falling off.

Details

The face that everyone is most concerned about is really a surprise this time. It can be said that this face is the most correct and best-looking one in the same version I have seen so far. It is no exaggeration. There is nothing too thick or thin or crooked, and the details are also good.

Overall, the feeling of momentum is fully expressed. But it is still the same sentence, it is inevitable to win the domestic lottery. Whether you win the lottery or not can only depend on the RP.

Summary

This is the review of REVIEW Muscle Bear Red Warrior - Metal Build MBF-P02 Gundam Astray Red Frame + Flight Unit [Dragon Backpack]. Although the paint finish is used as a whole to improve the texture, I found that there is some slight orange peel phenomenon on the paint surface of some parts. Although it is not very obvious, it makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

The overall joint is indeed relatively tight, but the connection position of some parts is still loose or too tight (mentioned in the picture, for reference), although these are some minor faults, but the manufacturer can make the product If you can pay attention, that's even better.

The biggest problem of the whole kit is the problem of the parts of the crotch. Because of the error of the mold opening itself, the parts are too thick, so that the hip joint cannot move backwards, and because of this problem, the lateral range of motion of the hip joint is also reduced.

Small, although this will not have a very big impact on normal playing, but the problem is always a problem, here is just a suggestion, as shown in the picture, there is no big problem with the movable pendulum POSE.

To sum up, the overall quality of the Red Warriors of this Muscle Bear Models is relatively stable and generally satisfactory. If you can accept or deal with those flaws and problems, it is a good set of products, of course, I still have to point out here that the winning of bootleg finished products has always been a critical issue.
