Hi all
Just wanna know, if u guys whether collecting japan anime back to 70’ / 80’s series like Mazinger,Goshogun, Getter Robo or Zambott 3 from aoshima / kotobukiya…
I find that those kits quite rare to find nowadays in hobby shop near my place or by online purchasing?? [:(!] How u guys find the kits especially by fitting and accuracy terms…? How’s the kit overview after finishing with paint/brush normally… just curious… [8D]
cheers [|)]
Over here you an still find them on the shelfs, as Aoshima and a few companies do occasional re-releases.
For me the best Super Robot Kits are the Resin Versions from Volks and similar garage-kit offerings.
Have a look at Hobby Link Japan: www.hlj.com
You should be able to find quiet a few kits there.
As for fit and detail it really depends the old Kits were fairly low quality and had a few problems, some of the new stuff is very decent.
Hi MadModel, for me i want to find some kits from aoshima skynet kit but so far i can’t find out any link to see the review… HLJ have some few wish list that were offering there…I want to buy some super robot series like Go shogun or any kits they might offer… so far i dun know what scale is the kit… Are the size same as 1/100 semi-MG or HG of Gundam…??thnx
Not sure about Goshogun kits specifically, but all the other Super Robots were offered in a range of scales/sizes.
HLJ should list the scale of the Kit if it is known, many of the Kits are non-scale though.
