This is the Tiechuang Metal Parts upgrade kit for the MG Exia! A great addition that's worth the work needed to swap it in, this kit adds heft and stability to a notoriously weak-ankled kit.
Big thanks to ShowZStore for sending this to me to review! You can check it out on their website at this link:

I'm so glad to see the exia metal frame was as good as I was hoping! I've been waiting for one since the barbatos metal frame. I do wish you showed off some of the improved details and joints (top of leg, new ankles, etc.)

I just realized, metal build exia is the only figure i could find while googling that actually has an accurate head sculpt to the anime/lineart??? like its crazy, i spent an entire 20 minutes just looking back and forth at anime/wiki images with the metal build exia head, no cap, im saving up to get that in the near future

@philmchawk2940 Жыл бұрын

Just built this inner frame with the Astrea Type F, it’s absolutely amazing. Things I had to modify were tightening the joints where the waist and the legs meet, I felt that was too loose, also had to really push the shoulders and arms through for a tighter fit. The armor part that covers the ankle/foot kept coming off so I had to tighten that part with super glue/nail polish. Same goes for the neck ball joint. Other than that, I love the extra weight it adds to the kit

This is a nice upgrade set, but I still think it would be better if Bandai gave us an MG 2.0 of the GN-001 Gundam Exia along with the expected 'Expansion Unit' for the variants (Repair 1 ~ 4, Avalanche), a Roll Out color version, and a Trans Am version. Then of course there's the GNY-001 Gundam Astraea and the GNY-001F/F2 Gundam Astraea Type F/F2.

Right?? It'd be an easy profit for them, considering all of the variant kits there are. I still have hope it'll come within the next 3 years or so

@RealEffinNoob Жыл бұрын

I bought the upgrade kit as well as a new MG Exia since my old MG Exia Ignition Mode is permanently converted into the Repair form. Anyway, the upgrade kit is definitely a must have. While it doesn't fix EVERYTHING that is problematic with MG Exia, it fixes MOST of the issues. That alone worth the purchase. It's unfortunate that it doesn't fix the issue with the GN Sword and Shield connection to the forearm. If anything, it made it worst (nothing a few small strip of carbon tape can't fix). Highly recommended for anyone planning on getting MG Exia. I still hope for the MG 2.0 of Exia, but I suppose this will do for now.

Dang, did not include parts for Ecopla Exia. Bought it hoping to make it solid, but guess that's not in my future unless I do some painting. And really, why get the ecopla if you're just going to paint it? Guess I just need to add an MG Exia to my shopping list.

I’m new to the hobby (loving it), and I have an Exia sitting in the box. Would this be something you would recommend getting before doing the first build? I’ve built several kits and I’m not scared of something a little outside of the basics. I just want this kit to pose and hold up as well as kyrios!

@aMillaGunpla Жыл бұрын

If you're comfortable with your skills, then no kit should be too hard to build! The Cao Ren has much better quality control than other non-Bandai kits I've built, and the instructions aren't too complex.

Before I buy the metal inner frame for mg qant and raiser, I want to ask, is the upgraded exia compatible with action base 4 (or any other kind)?

@aMillaGunpla Жыл бұрын

You'll have to double check that the frame from the Qant and Raiser are the same as the Exia, it's been a while since I've built the Qant so I don't remember. And this Exia frame is still compatible with all action bases

@@MrSyngamer You're welcome. I know how disappointing that is, but maybe another company will put out a metal frame for it later. I know one company is doing frames for Daban's red, blue, and gold Astrays and the Strike Freedom, so I'm hoping there'll be something done for the Astrea and Exia as well. I hope you enjoy the build though, Daban's Exia will look great.

@MrSyngamer Жыл бұрын

@@gregorysmith908 unfortunately those astrays are 1-1 copies of the bandai kits for the most part unless you were referring to their MB counterparts. And I just found out from somewhere apparently the avalanche from daban doesn't really have a full frame, its a little like the DM destiny where its just partial frame bits. Might be out of luck for it I guess 😪

@DanTheSpearton Жыл бұрын

man... i just hate the head sculpt of every single exia gunpla. PG is the best one and even that one, and I think this is a problem for all of setsuna's gunplas except raiser; the vfin is frikkin like, it doesn't go down enough, I guess, and proportions look off too. Raiser has a very pronounced vfin, like it goes down ans really gives the eyes like that menacing look.
