So I conclude that Prime is supporting the intellectual property piracy of Bandai by TThongli by doing those review. Bandai might sue TThongli imo also it's possible Prime get sued because she's 'helping' the defendant but she's just a victim for buying those products although she can be guilty for buying those pirated products. |

I don't subscribe to her channel so I only noticed her something special featuring the TT Piece Garbage (lol great comment from MeisterStyx) MK-II today. ZR0, you made some great comments on her video and I really get the feeling that there's a backlash against these KO reviews building amoung her subscribers. She mentioned that Walter is having some internet problems at the moment, anyone know what this may refer to? |

I'm guessing that the amount of orders he is receiving since prime first started advertising is geting abit overwhelming. |

Actually this is very funny,, it seems like all previous bandai reviews of prime has been forgotten! She has probably the one with the most english video reviews about gunpla. If you don't like seeing knockoff's don't watch, it is stated in the title it's a hongli review anyway. |

thats why i find it stupid, reading the comments on prime's videos, there are usually quite a few idiots asking if a kit is a knock off, like the Queen Mantha review prime did recently  as for forgetting the old ones, i still watch some of them to influence my purchases, as that was when prime's reviews really shined, atleast in my eyes

yes, primes channel is attracting very low value gundam fans at the moment (are they really gundam fans if they support&buy from tt hongli?) I still value her historic work but the new swing towards hongli reviews is a bad move. |

Im guessing prime has some sort of skills that would let he build one ... Idk it would be nice for prime to show her fans some advanced skills and resin kits insted of the K.O grabage and it would give the Newer builders that watch her vids something to work towards doing. some folks never get that puch to step their skills up and that would be a great way to guide them to do that and anyway Their resin kits arent hard to build once u get past all the glueing ( I hate Glue >_<) the painting would be simple masking/ painting |

Prime hand painted her Resin 00 7sword. She tried using spray cans without using primer and it was a disaster. I think she just ended up painting citadel paints straight onto the resin. Edited by ZR0, Feb 7 2010, 10:04 AM.

i agree with this, im guilty of not painting, but lately ive gon back and painted Some of my Sds and such... and on the topic, I still watch primes reviews, Shes the reason i even got back into gunpla cause i saw her shadow gundam review. But... the only reason i never liked her TT hongli reviews is because it doesnt feel like an opinon, more of payed programming. Ya know what im sayin? But common sense dictates, Dont be a Jew about it (Sorry if i offend) Just save and get the real deal. and if people say oh well i dont have money for mgs and pgs, then gdo what i do. go for hgs and sds. their still gunpla damn it. |

Her last "something special" video kind of explained things. She does'nt care about anti-knockoff comments and she would never buy a PG for full price so thats why she gets KOs |

Its funny how much impatience some people might have. As said in Master styx's comments, its better to save up and buy the real brand, rather than jumping the gun. If anyone saves up money, then its better to get that instead of going onto a knock off binge. (kinda of like food and fast food. LOL) |

I'm not subscribbed to her channel and don't watch many of her video's so I kinda surprise that she doesn't care about the anti-knock off comments. Considering she has already spent several thousands dollar on gunpla, I can't see any reason why she can afford to buy an original PG. Because PG are such a niche part of the gunpla range, I firmly believe that every knock off PG solds damages the line. You can argue that one of the reasons why the PG 00 was so expensive was because Bandai have to recoup their cost quickly before a KO hits the market. I understand that people are already asking prime when the KO PG 00 is comming out

Seriously, its the fact that people just don't have the patience. I mean if prime didn't buy those knock offs, she would buy stuff at a slower rate. From some of the comments, I do hear the PG titans knock off is mess, so I hope that shows that Prime should get a real PG not a stupid recast of it. Tomino and Katoki attack! |

Honestly i bever brought a PG and thought ( Damn this is a fuckin rip off) only Pg wing zero gave me that feeling. but i knew it wasnt one of the best before i ever got it. alot of Mg's i buy i don't feel they are worth the price tag sometimes . with a PG you get what you pay for. bandai brand PG wing zero was a nightmare. i can't fathom how a recast of a recast of a recast would be And imma keep saying this PRIME BUILD SOME G STSYEM KITS THEY ARE AWESOME. |

you're all forgetting what modeling is... It doesn't matter who makes the plates, it's about transforming a bunch of plastic plates into a work of art. If one brand is inferior to the other, then it's up to the modeler to improve it until they are satisfied. I honestly couldn't care less where my kits come from. Once it's painted glued and pieced together, it's going to look good either way. |

What about the people who designed the kit in the first place? Is'nt the model their piece of art, a knockoff is an insult to their hard work. |

I had a 1/35 RX-78 Gundam Head display but due to moveing a while back parts were lost and my kids got to the rest, ( Thats when i decided to put a lock on my Gunpla room) so my experince isnt that extenceive. But from what i did work on that kit , it would be a good project for prime to show people the up side of resin. |
