It’s a straight up bootleg of the justice gundam and the strike gundam mashed in one. It doesn’t make it any less badass, but it is a copy of the two put together
it was a privilege to build this kit (words i never thought i would say). i see it as a terrible travesty that theres so many people buying gunpla that will never move past shitty high grades from bandai. bandai has a LOT to learn, even just the manual for this kit shits all over anything bandai has ever put out. these in era kits stand toe to toe with mgex kits from bandia. they are THAT fucking good!
That's an irrationally assumptive and narrow perspective; "People buying Gunpla that will never move past shitty HG from Bandai", HG is an established line, people who are fans of the entirety of the Gundam franchise, not just model kits, buy it for that reason too because each mobile suit has their own lore and background. Also not everyone only does straight builds, HGs are the best line to kitbash and customise due to the plethora of immensely diverse kits available + expansion packs/sets, it also helps that their scale is in 1:144, quicker to scribe, modify, add pla-plates, airbrush, mask and even be displayed in dioramas. And just to add that up; not all people want a collection only composed of V-fins and the typical humanoid silhouette in different iterations and protruding backpacks, others want Kshatriya, Nightingale, Messer, TR-6 Hazel II and such, "variety". Last year's GBWC (Gundam Build World Cup) the winning entries in the Philippines, from two categories mainly used HG's. I like In Era and Motor Nuclear for custom paint or for straight build, then display. But when it comes to more thorough customisation and modifications, HG is the way to go because other people are actually creative, they don't just fall for consumerism and the sake of collecting. As much as I'm a fan of In Era, Motor Nuclear, even the MJZ Studios and ZZA, I wouldn't imprudently take a hit on the HG line because I rather have a pragmatic comprehension on plamos/gunplas.
@@theflawedkid i cant imagine ANYTHING you can do by kitbashing low rez HG kits that i cant do with putty or pla plates. furthermore, you know they make adapters for backpacks right? know what they dont make? metal parts for HG kits. the thing you seem to ignore is that hg kits are the micropenises of shelf presence. if people dont want v fins and humanoid forms they are most likely building zoids anyways.. not gunpla. you have fun paying out the ass for p-bandai recolors to get limited edition kibble though.
@@megaflux7144 Tell me you don't custom without telling me. Your ignorance is obviously reeking. You "can't imagine" because you lack the mind for it. Simple as that, you don't need to be so pressed for something you're lacking. Putty? Lmao, who uses putty after the 1st layer of clear lacquer? Just right there, your opinion is invalidated because you run your mouth without carrying any viable substance. There are companies like Madworkz, Dspiae, HobbyMio that sells tools and equipment for customisation and modification, like epoxy, drills, magnets, tubes, metal etchings, chisels, scribers, even the tip of it goes from 0.1 to 3 and more, etc. but all you can think of is limited to putty and plaplates 🤣 And Zoids? It doesn't even share the same design language and aesthetic. So you literally have two options, either go with animalistic mecha or Gundam inspired, silly, you really got a narrow perspective, you could've just stated some Moderoid, Kotobukiya or other plamo kits, but, nah, you just said Zoids 🤣 It doesn't belong in the same sphere, you keep proving how ignorant you are. Backpack adapters? And then what, just let them swap backpacks? Swap arms, limbs, etc. Is that what you really think of when someone mentions "kitbash", that's incredibly surface level, that didn't even cover the peak of the iceberg, my guy, you are funny 🤣 It hasn't even touch yet with changing the literal mold of the piece to the entire structure and silhouette. This conversation absolutely feels like teaching someone a certain genre of music, while he keepz talking about time signatures without understanding simple foundations of tempos and rhythm 🤣
@@megaflux7144 You "can't imagine" because you lack that "imagine" part, you can't be a little too pressed with something you're lacking. Putty and pla-plates? You can't recreate Qubeley and Kshatriya's 'wings' or the torso of Gusion or Z'Gok's arms or Pharact's whole backpack with pure pla-plates, are you gonna scratch build them with those evident curves and tectonic flows, then add scribed and molded details, just think of the integral structure of it in 1:100 scale, heck, you can't even scratch build Schwarzette's face/head without trouble. This proves how awfully benighted you are, pla-plates are commonly used to add details, to stack layers on the surface and change the mold/form of a piece, you need a particular basis for foundation for it, whilst you can scratch build some parts, there are limitations, that's why it's needed to use other parts with certain shapes and layouts from definitive or unconventional design mobile suits and expansions packs/sets are also availabe like HG Build Custom, Builder Parts HD, Kotobukiya's MSG, ANUBIS Studios, Wave, Madworkz, 30MM, Dalin, EW, RCW and many more that are compatible to HG, there are even shops that 3D prints resin parts for 1:144 scale. But what do you know anyway, lmao. You're too opinionated for someone who's only outside-looking-in. Backpack adapter? That also exists in HGs, lmao, it's not some new glorious invention, you can even simply use a hand drill with 3mm pin for backpacks or create a new peg using sprues or tubes from hobby shops. But then what, just swap the backpacks, just keep swapping parts that fits, call it a day since that's already textbook "kitbashing". You're too funny, my guy, you can't be serious by thinking that's just all in kitbashing because that's barely grazing the surface level, I would like to expound the processes of modifications but it's such a waste of time when one can't even get the grasp of what actually is kitbashing. Metal parts? There literally are metal etchings for HGs, made by other companies again like Madworkz, add-ons and detail parts too. And in the grand scheme of things, does metal parts really matter, In Era's Thunderbolt doesn't have metal parts, Trailblazer doesn't have metal parts, Kiyomori doesn't have metal parts, they're still good kits, not everything is in need of metal. If you're so obsessed with metal, just buy CangDao and Moshow figures, lmao. Then Zoids? They don't even share the same design language. You literally think that there are only two options, either animalistic mechas or all Gundam inspired kits. You should've stated some Moderoid or Kotobokiya mecha plamos but, nah, hahaha, you just said Zoids. It does show how incredibly narrow your perception is. Shelf presence? Have you ever been to any GBWC events? You'll know what shelf presence is. And as for P-Bandai, no one is forcing you to buy it, you actually have your very own free will in case you forgot, I don't even know why you gotta derail the conversation with whining about P-Bandai but I guess it only shows the extent of your thinking, it's irrelavant to the current ground of deliberation of why people buy HGs. I buy HGs for customisation/modifications, some dioramas while others buy it because they're fond of the lore and series. I buy non-Bandai kits like Zero Gravity, In Era, Motor Nuclear mostly for straight builds and display, also because a lot of Bandai MGs are dated; molding and engineering wise, that's why I already prefer non-Bandai kits like In Era or Motor Nuclear, I would buy their Full Mechanics line if there's a character/kit that I like but there isn't. Simple as that, very simple as that. If you wanna have a collection of 1:100 scale, all fully customised, that's more farfetched and expensive, unless you do commission work for gunpla/plamo customisation on the sidelines. It's an obvious clearcut, it's about preference and what they want to do in the field of hobby, no need for deekriding point-A, then deeming down point-B, just broaden your perception, a lot of matters actually have reasons.
@@theflawedkid if theres one thing i lack its NOT creativity. for quebly arms i would probably just use my 3d printer.. though i dont generally find a reason to make my kits look profoundly stupid so actually doing it has infact never crossed my mind. i could probably sculpt and sand pretty close to it but again, why bother making something stupid looking? i do see the third party add-on kits sometimes, but they are never really impressive to me. you seemed to be the one thinking swapping MG parts was "difficult", so naturally i assumed you were unaware of the adapters. the thing is youre acting as if the majority of hg kits end up in gbwc builds, they dont. they end up in the hands of little kids. you are right about bandais mg kits (they are pretty shit lately), but frankly i dont see how anyone can feel as accomplished completing a hg (custom or not) as they would completing a mg which gives you more realestate FOR details. again to cars.. theres not a chance youll feel as accomplished building a go kart as you would an actual car. there IS a difference in magnitudes.
Solid video. But there's a difference between Bootleg and Third Party products. This is the company's own original design. Not a ripoff or independent release of an existing model. Something like the Daban models are an example of bootlegs.
@@azuzu9813 Its better to call them Plamo IMO. they're not really third party gundam kits and they're also not bootlegs. They're doing their own thing, gundam design inspired or not, and should be put in the plastic model kit category : )

![[REVIEW] IN ERA - AURORA](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/lAKEH_k4wHw/mqdefault.jpg)
these awesome kits stopped being bootleg a log time ago and now are even surpassing bandai kits in many ways.
Absolutely beautiful kit! Great review, as always!
Custom painting this thing would be a massive undertaking.
Where to buy the alternate antenna? Awesome vid! Thanks for sharing.
DAMN, UR VIDEO WAS SO GOOD..KEEP IT UP MAN
thanks bro! 😄
Please remove the bootleg tag. This kit is pourly original by IN ERA and it's not copying any other intellectual properties.
Yep stupid person only put bootleg without doing research.
Sure
It’s a straight up bootleg of the justice gundam and the strike gundam mashed in one. It doesn’t make it any less badass, but it is a copy of the two put together
Cant wait mine... btw nice videos.👍
Thank you, happy building
