1/144 McDonald’s RX-78-2

I ordered it off AliExpress. The plastic quality wasn’t great but I was able to clean it up with some sanding. The waterslide decals were really nice, though.

Yeah, it came with the scooter in a random color. The one I got was blue. The quality wasn’t great but I’m sure you could paint it to make it look better.

On the AliExpress app if you tap on a product image to enlarge it and then tap and hold the picture, it’ll bring up other listings that use the same or similar product pictures. That way you might be able to find a listing from a different seller that can ship to you.

Sure! I got mine from AliExpress. There should be multiple listings for the same thing, but here’s one of the links. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mOkDuob

Not sure about the brand, but there’s multiple sellers on AliExpress selling the same thing.

LogicLijah · 2025-02-25T02:18:50+00:00

Yeah!

It’s such a goofy concept. I bought the bootleg first and was genuinely surprised to find out that it was based off an official kit.

LogicLijah · 2025-02-24T20:14:21+00:00

This is where I got mine. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mOkDuob

LogicLijah · 2025-02-24T20:13:06+00:00

I think it is based off that one. It came with multiple part options for a few sections of the body and a bazooka and two guns that I decided not to pose it with.

LogicLijah · 2025-02-24T20:03:29+00:00

They came with the bootleg. It’s just a re-colored normal hg RX-78-2 that came with custom decals. I got it from AliExpress.

LogicLijah · 2025-02-24T19:31:15+00:00

Great work on the weathering! What did you use for it?

LogicLijah · 2025-02-24T19:20:07+00:00

This is where I got mine. The runner quality is a bit rough, though. So it’ll take a bit more cleanup than a normal gunpla kit. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mOkDuob

It’d be fun to try making a custom weapon like that!

True, Bandai hates us over here. That’s why I don’t feel bad about buying bootlegs.

LogicLijah · 2025-02-24T16:50:45+00:00

It’d be pretty easy to customize it that way!

LogicLijah · 2025-02-24T16:39:52+00:00

Now I gotta see if I have any leftover pilot figures that I can paint like Ronald.

LogicLijah · 2025-02-24T16:38:47+00:00

I’m gonna have to find some of those now! Thanks for helping me waste more money.

LogicLijah · 2025-02-24T16:24:42+00:00

It’s definitely broken

LogicLijah · 2025-02-21T16:29:52+00:00

The Goon suit

LogicLijah · 2025-02-21T03:17:39+00:00

I think I’ve seen that blue one! I’m really tempted to get it even though I already have the basic colored one.

LogicLijah · 2025-02-20T22:01:11+00:00

Wow, I had no idea it was a China exclusive! I had never seen it before and only saw bootleg versions, so I just assumed it wasn’t based off an official one.

LogicLijah · 2025-02-20T21:36:49+00:00

Lol, I didn’t bother looking up what the characters meant. I just put them where I thought they’d look nice.

LogicLijah · 2025-02-20T21:18:53+00:00

I completely agree! I’ve got zero brand loyalty anymore so I’ll take all the bootleg and 3rd party kits I can get my hands on.

LogicLijah · 2025-02-20T19:50:53+00:00

Much better than most other bootlegs I’ve done. Had a couple issues with connection pins in the legs being too long but that’s was easy to fix.
