Motor Nuclear
$60.00Official Motor Nuclear Retailer LA Scale Model is an authorized retailer of Motor Nuclear. All Motor Nuclear model kits are 100% genuine and sourced directly from the manufacturer. Overview The Motor Nuclear MNP-XH13 Wei Yuan Zhenbei Heavy Firepower Type is a weapon-focused expansion release from the Legend of Star General series. It bundles a complete Wei Yuan Sword Stance (Jian Dou) base body with four new armor pieces and a full heavy firepower arsenal - four oversized weapons, metal mechanical arms, and backpack mounting hardware. Motor Nuclear is a Chinese manufacturer known for original mecha designs that blend ancient Chinese military aesthetics with sci-fi engineering, and the Wei Yuan line is the entry-level tier within their Legend of Star General range. Key Features Heavy Firepower Arsenal - Four dedicated weapons: Tiandu Army Standard Zhenbian Sword (melee), Honeycomb Cannon (openable six-panel muzzle with visible pre-painted ammo interior), Tiger Roar Cannon (extensible front barrel and rear fins with linked deployment), and Wulei-style Shield Gun (26 cm combined shield-cannon, the largest piece in the kit) Alloy Internal Skeleton - Die-cast metal frame provides weight, joint stability, and the ability to hold dynamic poses under the heavy weapon loadout Metal Mechanical Arms - Eight weapon connection arms plus long and short arm assemblies allow all four weapons to mount on the backpack simultaneously for full-deployment display configurations New Armor Pieces - Four redesigned armor components (knee armor, backpack, skirt armor) with improved proportions and color separation compared to the base Wei Yuan Pre-Painted and Color-Separated Details - Bronze-style relief patterns on weapon surfaces, pre-painted ammunition sections inside the Honeycomb Cannon, and translucent shield elements on the Wulei Shield Gun Complete Base Body Included - Ships with a full Wei Yuan Sword Stance body, not just the weapon add-on pack, including four replacement faceplates and the original Type 63 Horizontal Sword and Type 33 Light Crossbow Builder Context This kit is suited for intermediate builders comfortable with multi-runner assembly and alloy frame integration. Construction is snap-fit with no cement required, though the metal mechanical arms may need minor tightening at connection points for stability under weapon load. The build complexity and part count are comparable to a Bandai MG kit, with the added step of integrating alloy skeleton components. Why Build This Kit The Motor Nuclear MNP-XH13 Wei Yuan Zhenbei Heavy Firepower Type is the weapon-density standout in the Legend of Star General Wei Yuan lineup, bundling four individually designed heavy weapons and a full mechanical arm mounting system into a single release. At 19 cm for the base body and 26 cm for the largest weapon alone, the fully equipped display configuration has significant visual mass that exceeds most kits in this price range. Builders who already own a Wei Yuan Sword Stance (MNP-XH-07) should note that this kit includes the full base body again rather than a standalone weapon pack, and the new backpack connectors are not backward-compatible with the original version. The Honeycomb Cannon's openable six-panel muzzle with visible pre-painted ammo and the bronze relief surface textures across the weapon set give this kit strong painting and weathering potential for modelers looking for custom project material. For builders unfamiliar with Motor Nuclear, the Wei Yuan line sits at the entry price tier of the Legend of Star General series and builds similarly to Bandai MG-grade kits with the addition of an alloy internal frame.

Product Highlights 1/100 scale original-IP mecha model kit by MingJiangZhuan / MJZ Studio Approximately 23 cm tall when assembled — ideal shelf-size for 1/100 collections Pre-assembled (pre-built) internal skeleton frame — reduces assembly difficulty, improves stability Full articulation — poseable joints upon build completion Extensive weapons and accessory set including floating cannons, firearms, sword(s), and effect parts Armor and backpack detail inspired by Oni / demon-warrior motifs with stylized silhouette and color scheme Display base included — ready for shelf display or photography setups Limited-edition / collector-oriented release — makes for a standout finish kit Description The Snow Demon Yukioni Kiyomori blends fantasy-style mecha design with robust build engineering.

The floating cannons and weapons system add complexity and display potential, making the kit ideal for diorama setups or showcase builds. As a third-party kit, it may require careful nub removal and potentially decal or panel-lining work for optimal finish. The final result, however, stands out for range of motion, detail, and thematic aesthetic — perfect for collectors who want an original-style mecha build rather than standard franchise Gunpla.

[BACKORDER] KaiTianJiChuang 1/12 Mecha Angel Black Swan Elysia Model Kit
KaiTianJiChuang
$80.00 $74.00Overview The KaiTianJiChuang 1/12 Mecha Angel Series Black Swan Elysia is a mecha girl assembly model kit and the debut release in KaiTianJiChuang's original Mecha Angel series. Designed in collaboration with illustrator TangHuang, Elysia is a silver-haired, heterochromatic-eyed combat unit featuring a dual-mode transformation system that switches between Land-Battle and Air-Battle configurations through swappable legs, backpacks, and shoulder armor. The kit includes two complete armed bodies - a first for Chinese-manufactured mecha girl kits - allowing both combat modes to be displayed simultaneously without swapping parts. KaiTianJiChuang (开天机创) is a new Chinese manufacturer entering the mecha musume space with the Mecha Angel line, set in an original sci-fi universe on planet Terra where paired combat operatives known as "Mecha Angels" are trained to fight an alien threat. The kit builds from 41 runners using PC, ABS, POM, and PVC. Key Features Dual Armed Bodies - Two complete armed body configurations (Land-Battle and Air-Battle) are included as separate builds, not just swappable parts. Both can be displayed simultaneously using the shared base body arms. One-Piece POM Skeleton - The internal frame uses a single-piece molded POM skeleton for tight, stable joints across the torso and limbs. Joint tightness is notably firm out of the box. 10 Face Options - Includes 2 movable-eye face plates (calm and combat expressions) with eye adjustment tool, 3 pre-painted face plates with fixed eye directions, and 5 blank face plates for custom painting or waterslide decal application. Full Weapon Loadout with Multiple Configurations - Dimensional Energy Sword with two swappable effect blade sets (standard overload and particle flame wave), Pulse Wave Ruler with replaceable energy blade, and Sky-Piercing Twin Guns with muzzle effect parts. Support Craft Transformation - The Air-Battle backpack and Land-Battle energy sword combine to form a standalone support aircraft. Transparent standing aids allow the figure to stand on the craft without a support arm. Modular Display Base with Stasis Pod - The display stand splits into two independent bases (each with storage compartments and support arm mounting), and reassembles with the included transparent tube into a hibernation capsule display large enough for other 1/12 mecha girl kits. Extensive Effect Parts - Wing effects, Flame Slash effect, gun effects, backpack cannon effects, leg-mounted cannon effects (two lengths), and jet thruster effects. Every visible thruster port has a dedicated mounting point for its corresponding effect part. Builder Context This is a snap-fit assembly kit with 41 runners, pre-painted face plates, and color-separated parts designed for a display-ready result without painting. The color instruction manual includes chibi character illustrations and a QR code linking to an official assembly video, making it accessible for intermediate builders. The one-piece POM skeleton produces very tight joints - builders should expect to sand ball joint pegs (especially at the hips and shoulders) and may want to apply Vaseline to the hip joints for smoother articulation. Some surface-visible nub gates are positioned in tricky locations where a hobby knife produces cleaner results than nippers alone. The thigh parts have a visible mold line that can be removed with light sanding. Builders familiar with Kotobukiya Frame Arms Girl or Eastern Model A.T.K. Girl kits will find the construction approach comparable, with the dual-body configuration and support craft transformation adding complexity beyond a typical single-body mecha girl build. Why Build This Kit The KaiTianJiChuang Black Swan Elysia is the first Chinese-manufactured mecha girl kit to include two complete armed bodies in a single box, allowing both Land-Battle and Air-Battle forms to be displayed simultaneously rather than requiring part-swapping between configurations. With 41 runners, 10 face plates, two full weapon sets, a transformable support craft mode, and a stasis pod display base, the accessory density at this price point exceeds comparable 1/12 mecha girl kits from Eastern Model, Nuke Matrix, and Hemoxian. The face sculpt quality is the kit's standout feature - Chinese community reviewers consistently single it out as the strongest element of the product, with the movable-eye heterochromatic design and anime-proportioned eye sockets producing a display presence that avoids the uncanny-valley effect common in mecha girl kits with movable eyes. At 17 cm in armed configuration, Elysia has strong 1/12 shelf presence and is display-compatible with figma, SHFiguarts, and other 1/12 action figures. Builders should know that KaiTianJiChuang is a debut manufacturer - joint tightness requires sanding for comfortable play, and the body proportions prioritize the armed equipment over figure detail, but the face quality and accessory volume set a strong foundation for the Mecha Angel line. Box Contents Base body x1 Armed replacement body x1 Waterslide decal sheets x2 (body markings + facial expressions) Armed hand parts x6 pairs Movable-eye face plates x2 (with heterochromatic and single-color eye options) Pre-painted face plates x3 Blank face plates x5 Air-Battle Mode leg parts x1 pair Land-Battle Mode leg parts x1 pair Land-Battle backpack x1 (asymmetric design with energy canister and sword storage) Air-Battle backpack x1 (upper wing unit + lower thruster unit) Dimensional Energy Sword x1 (with two swappable effect blade sets) Pulse Wave Ruler x1 (with replaceable energy blade) Sky-Piercing Twin Guns x2 (with muzzle effect parts) Land-Battle shoulder armor x1 pair (three-piece samurai-style articulated plates) Mechanical replacement head x1 Replacement chest armor (large) x1 Transparent standing aid pieces x1 pair Wing effect parts x1 pair Flame Slash effect parts x1 Sky-Piercing Twin Guns effect parts x2 Backpack cannon effect parts x2 Air-Battle leg cannon effect parts x2 (two lengths) Backpack jet effect parts (large) x2 Backpack jet effect parts (small) x2 Modular display base (splits into two stands, each with storage compartment) x1 Display base mechanical arms x2 (screw-adjustable tension) Stasis pod transparent tube x1 Black Swan exclusive nameplate x1 Eye adjustment tool x1 (stored inside display base) Color instruction manual with QR code assembly video x1 First-batch bonus x1 Series Mecha Angel Character Black Swan Elysia Scale 1/12 Height (base body) Approx. 15.5 cm (to top of head) Height (Air-Battle form) Approx. 17.5 cm Height (Land-Battle form) Approx. 17 cm Materials PC, ABS, POM, PVC Runner Count 41 Model Code KTJ10001 EAN 6976621100013 Box Dimensions 320 x 240 x 140 mm Weight Approx. 1,089 g Manufacturer KaiTianJiChuang (开天机创) Backorder Notice:This item is currently on backorder and will be shipped once available.

[BACKORDER] Nuke Matrix 1/12 CF01 F.O.X. Long-Range Striker Unit Vivienne Hayha Model Kit
Nuke Matrix
$70.00Official Nuke Matrix Retailer LA Scale Model is an authorized retailer of Nuke Matrix. All Nuke Matrix model kits are 100% genuine and sourced directly from the manufacturer. Overview The Nuke Matrix CF01 F.O.X. Long-Range Striker Unit is a 1/12 scale mecha musume model kit and the debut release in the Cyber Forest (Fantasy Girls) series. It depicts Vivienne Hayha, the Empire's top sniper and a subject of the "Maiden Project," built around a cyborg aesthetic of exposed spinal detailing and prosthetic limb parts, and armed with her signature ZERO System cross unit. Nuke Matrix is a Chinese studio whose Cyber Forest line pairs articulated mecha girl kits with dense weapon and accessory loadouts. Key Features Molded in color: Full character body pre-colored for a display-ready result without painting. Five weapons: Includes the oversized ZERO System giant cross, sniper rifle, assault rifle, dagger, and laser saber. Interchangeable face plates: Three tampo-printed faces plus four blank faces for custom expression painting. Swappable configurations: Changeable armored and standard leg-and-arm part sets for two build looks. Twelve hands: A full set of interchangeable hands for weapon holding and posing. Wide articulation: Broad range of joint motion for dynamic sniper and combat poses. Display base and wire: Dedicated action base plus posing wire included. Builder Context The CF01 is best suited to intermediate builders comfortable with mecha musume kits such as Kotobukiya Megami Device or Bandai 30 Minutes Sisters. It is a snap-fit build that needs no cement, but the small face-plate pegs, hand joints, and heavy under-gating reward patience and careful nub cleanup rather than speed. Why Build This Kit The Nuke Matrix CF01 F.O.X. Long-Range Striker Unit is the debut kit in the Cyber Forest (Fantasy Girls) line and works as the recommended entry point into the series, since it establishes the cyborg sniper aesthetic of exposed spinal detailing and prosthetic limb parts that defines the brand. At 16 cm assembled it sits in the same display class as Bandai 30 Minutes Sisters and Kotobukiya Megami Device kits, so it is a familiar size for builders already collecting mecha musume. The kit is molded in color and snap-fit, meaning no paint or cement is required for a display-ready result, though panel lining improves definition on the armor. Builders should know that Cyber Forest kits use extensive under-gating to hide nub marks, and unlike Bandai RG kits these gate points are not marked in the manual, so each part should be checked before removal. The CF01 is also the most accessory-focused kit a new Cyber Forest builder can start with, bundling five weapons including the oversized ZERO System cross alongside twelve interchangeable hands and seven total face plates. Box Contents Vivienne Hayha body x1 Changeable armored legs and arms x1 set Changeable standard legs and arms x1 set Tampo-printed face plates x3 Blank face plates x4 Interchangeable hands x12 Water decal sheet x1 Sticker sheet x1 Posing wire x1 Display base x1 Giant Cross (ZERO System) x1 Sniper rifle x1 Assault rifle x1 Dagger x1 Laser saber x1 Specifications Brand Nuke Matrix Series Cyber Forest (Fantasy Girls) Kit Number CF01 Character Vivienne Hayha Scale 1/12 Assembled Height Approx. 16 cm (160 mm) Material ABS / PVC Assembly Snap-fit, no cement required Molding Molded in color EAN (2025 re-release) 4573611690046 Backorder Notice:This item is currently on backorder and will be shipped once available.

[BACKORDER] ShenXing Technology Classic of Mountains and Seas White Tiger Ink Realm Edition Model Kit
ShenXing Technology
$75.00Overview The ShenXing Technology FX-7800M White Tiger is a fully articulated beast-form model kit from the Classic of Mountains and Seas (Shan Hai Jing) series. This is the Ink Realm (墨境仙古) colorway - a gray, black, and white color scheme inspired by traditional Chinese ink wash painting, distinct from the standard White Tiger's orange-accented white color scheme. ShenXing Technology (神型科技) is a Chinese manufacturer specializing in mythological creature kits, and the White Tiger is one of their signature releases based on the Four Divine Beasts of Chinese cosmology. Key Features Ink Wash Painting Colorway - Gray, black, and white color-separated parts evoke the tonal depth of traditional Chinese ink painting, with first-batch units including silver-plated accent parts 46.4 cm Total Length - Approximately 18.3 inches from nose to tail tip when fully extended, with a standing height of roughly 17.8 cm (7 inches) - a substantial shelf piece that commands display space comparable to a 1/100 humanoid mecha kit Full Body Articulation - Articulated jaw, neck, spine segments, shoulders, hips, elbows, knees, ankles, and individual tail sections allow for crouching, lunging, and neutral standing poses Color-Separated Runners with Clear Parts - Molded in the final color scheme with translucent teal detail parts for the eyes and energy accents, minimizing the need for painting ABS and POM Construction - POM joints provide friction-based articulation stability across the multi-segment body Mythological Source Material - Based on the White Tiger (Baihu/白虎), the divine beast representing the western cardinal direction and autumn in Chinese mythology, as described in the Shan Hai Jing (Classic of Mountains and Seas) Builder Context This is a snap-fit kit suitable for intermediate builders. The organic beast form means limb alignment and tail posing require more spatial reasoning than a standard humanoid mecha kit - Japanese Amazon reviews note that some parts require care to seat properly, and first-time builders found the difficulty higher than expected. No cement or paint is required, though tight joints may benefit from light sanding. Builders familiar with HG or RG Bandai kits will find the construction logic similar but the part geometry less predictable due to the animal anatomy. Why Build This Kit The ShenXing Technology FX-7800M White Tiger is one of the few articulated beast-form model kits available in the Western market, making it a rare alternative to the humanoid mecha kits that dominate the third-party space. At 46.4 cm long, the finished build has display presence that rivals kits two or three times its price point - it reads as a centerpiece rather than a shelf filler. The ink wash colorway gives the completed kit a more restrained, art-piece quality compared to the standard White Tiger's brighter orange-accented scheme, which appeals to builders who display kits alongside books or art rather than in dedicated mecha cases. Builders considering this kit should know that ShenXing's part fit requires more patience than a comparable Bandai kit - joints are tight, some parts need test-fitting before committing, and posing the full body in a dynamic stance takes time to balance weight distribution across the legs and tail. For anyone looking to build something outside the typical Gundam or mecha humanoid format, this is one of the most visually distinctive options currently available from any manufacturer. Box Contents Color-separated runner plates (ABS) POM joint runner plates Translucent teal detail parts (eyes and energy accents) Silver-plated accent parts (first-batch units only) Assembly instructions Brand ShenXing Technology (神型科技) Series Classic of Mountains and Seas (Shan Hai Jing / 山海经) Product Name White Tiger - Ink Realm Edition (墨境仙古 白虎) Product Number FX-7800M Length Approximately 46.4 cm (18.3") including tail Height Approximately 17.8 cm (7") Materials ABS, POM Assembly Snap-fit, no cement required Paint Not required (color-separated) EAN 6974393020041 Box Dimensions 34 x 23.7 x 16 cm Box Weight 880 g Country of Origin China Recommended Age 15+ Backorder Notice:This item is currently on backorder and will be shipped once available.

[BACKORDER] Orange Cat Industry Tekkaman Blade D-Boy
Orange Cat Industry
$120.00The Orange Cat Industry Tekkaman Blade D-Boy is a snap-fit plastic model kit of the title hero from the 1992 Tatsunoko Production anime Space Knight Tekkaman Blade, the armored form that protagonist Takaya Aiba (D-Boy) transforms into. Officially licensed by Sotsu and Tatsunoko, the kit reinterprets the originally rounded anime design as a massive, sharp-edged mecha with oversized shoulder armor, slim high-heeled feet, and opening shoulder cannons. Orange Cat Industry is a Chinese model-kit maker known in the third-party scene for character kits outside the Gundam universe, and the D-Boy was among its first officially licensed IP releases. Key Features Standout size - the finished build stands roughly 22 cm (8.6 in), taller than a typical 1/100 Master Grade Gundam. Sharp-edged redesign - the rounded anime silhouette is reworked into an angular, sci-fi mechanical look with enlarged shoulders and high-heeled feet. Tek Lancer - the signature double-bladed lance displays as a single pole-arm or splits into a dual-wield pair. Tek Shield - a removable shield that mounts on the forearm or stows on the rear waist via swap parts. Opening shoulder cannons - both shoulders open to reveal internal clear-green detail for recreating the Voltekka firing pose. Perfect color separation - full color break-up straight from the runners with no correction stickers or decals required. Stand adapter included - a crotch-mounted adapter terminates in an octagonal peg compatible with Bandai 1/100 universal action bases (base not included). Builder Context This is a snap-fit kit with a simple internal structure comparable to a Bandai HG-grade build, completable in roughly 3-4 hours out of the box and approachable for beginners through experienced builders. The soft plastic makes nub removal easy and the keyed, chamfered connectors are forgiving, though painters should note that the slim pegs and recessed panel lines reward some pre-build prep. Why Build This Kit The Orange Cat Industry Tekkaman Blade D-Boy is one of the few officially licensed plastic kits of the Space Knight Tekkaman Blade hero, making it the primary option for builders who want the character as a buildable kit rather than a pre-painted figure. At about 22 cm it finishes taller than an 18 cm 1/100 Master Grade Gundam, giving it strong shelf presence despite an HG-level assembly difficulty of roughly 3-4 hours. Because the kit has complete color separation and no stickers, a straight build looks display-ready, and most builders only add a panel-line wash and a flat topcoat to finish it. Buyers should know the soft plastic trades durability for easy trimming: the red knee armor is loose enough to drop off during handling and benefits from reinforcement, and the slim connector pegs can snap if pressed in misaligned. Articulation is strong in the arms and legs, but the torso has only a single waist joint and the head cannot tilt fully upward, so the kit displays best in grounded action poses rather than extreme dynamic ones. Box Contents Tekkaman Blade (D-Boy) main body Tek Lancer double-bladed lance (single or dual-wield configuration) Tek Shield with forearm and rear-waist mounting swap parts Two pairs of replacement hands Stand adapter (Bandai 1/100 universal base compatible) 14-page instruction manual Specifications Manufacturer Orange Cat Industry Series Space Knight Tekkaman Blade (1992, Tatsunoko Production) Character Tekkaman Blade / D-Boy (Takaya Aiba) License ©Sotsu / Tatsunoko Production Height Approx. 22 cm (8.6 in) Material Multi-color injection-molded runners (ABS-based) with clear green parts; no soft-PVC parts Runners Approx. 16 (per builder reports) Assembly Snap-fit; no adhesive required Color Separation Full; no stickers or decals included Instruction Manual 14 pages Build Time Approx. 3-4 hours (straight build) Backorder Notice:This item is currently on backorder and will be shipped once available.
