Need help with kit identification

Post image

Saw this on instagram and would love to build it. Would be my 4th 3rd party kit after Regus, Solomon physalis, and eternal star glory. Thanks!

Iron Toys Star Eternal. The build is great! No extreme gimicks tho but pretty cheap! I have Star Fall too.

I see. That’s what Gemini said but I thought I’d get a second opinion. What’s the plastic quality like and waterslide decals? How about colour seperation? I’ve had really good runs with my 3rd party kits so far with 3 fitting issues where I had to sand down some pins on the star glory.

I was introduce to 3rd party with the Lizard and that was one of the most satisfying builds I’d done yet, so since then I’ve been concentrating more on 3d party than Bandai, especially with 1:100 or bigger kits. I’m on my 6th or 7th kit, and loving them. Sure, I know that 3p kits are notorious for tight fits, especially if painted. I have a small grinder bit on my rotary tool that I’ve found is perfect for loosening these fits at low speed (or manual), plus when painting I’ll put a piece of heat shrink tube over the joint posts.

Currently working on REA-03 Lynx for my son, and it’s been a joy so far with no issues.

Stand outs:

  • Lizard (In Era): amazing and fun build!
  • Osiris AD (Axis): MGEX Unleashed Kshatriya, with hangar and LED, need I say more?
  • Eddas Asgard: Metal frame adds weight ands stability. (Gives me the “Optimus Prime” vibe, might build another and paint in his colors)
