Phantom Model 2001B: MG 1/100 ZGMF-1001/K Slash ZAKU Phantom Review

Phantom Model is a new bootleg Gunpla manufacturer that released the Zaku Phantom series as its first Plastic Model Kit.

Details

The details and sharpness not difficult to see from the board. The details of this phantom model are still standable, the look and feel is still good, maybe some dark boards may not be visible.

But it is very obvious on those light blue outer armors, the engraved lines are relatively sharp, the details are well-organized, and the C surface is also very regular, but the surface of the parts is relatively smooth, and it will look a little shiny, so it looks like It feels a bit meaty, but the stuff is actually pretty good.

Snapfit and Combination

As the first model of this new factory, it is relatively rare that the combination degree can be achieved so smoothly. The overall combination of products is very smooth, and there are few places that are needed.

The strong diamond finger may not be able to be combined in place. 99% of the combinations are just in place. Except for the special places in the article, the rest are considered perfect combinations.

The configuration part, as mentioned earlier, the manufacturer is still sincere, and has pulled all the weapon configurations to full, and the standard weapons are all x 2 by default. Double short axes, double guns, and double long axes are very powerful. Satisfied a lot of weapon control.

Problem

The problem of shrinkage, as mentioned in the article, is that there are still many shrinkage problems in the product. It is only relative. A large part of it is a slight shrinkage that is not very conspicuous or some invisible positions. The impact on the overall look and feel is not very big. The only conspicuous place can be polished and processed in the later stage. It is a blessing in misfortune. Of course, the problem is the problem.

The part that needs to be mentioned here is the part of the shoulder joint, because the article also specifically pointed out the part that needs attention, but it must be reiterated here again, because of the original design problem.

The joint itself is very thin and short, and it is also a force-bearing part, so when playing activities, everyone must be careful and pay attention, because this joint involves mechanisms such as rotation and stretching. Problems will lead to the emergence of risk problems such as the fracture of this joint, so be sure to pay attention to it or do it according to the evaluation instructions.

Summary

Overall, the quality of this Phantom Model 2001B is still acceptable. There are more than 3 copies of the original Premium Bandai. The price of this Knock-Out bootleg is cheaper. The price/performance ratio is still there. And for those who like mass production, this is of course a better choice.

Moreover, it can be seen from the board diagram that the operation of changing the layout order of the parts indicates that various color-changing products will be produced in the future.
