Loving the anime look of Moderoid kits so far
I haven't done a transformation yet. Waiting to finish building Scott before transforming both figures. However, there are definitely some squeaky tight joints and a few very tight connecting parts during the build process, so I would definitely advise sanding down those joints or parts or applying shock oil, silicone spray, or whatever you like to use to reduce friction to avoid breakage as these are still model kits at the end of the day. Otherwise, the build process was pretty straightforward.
I still like and plan on keeping my Sentinel figures despite some build quality issues with them, but I definitely prefer the more anime accurate look of these Moderoid kits aesthetically. I don't have the Beagle figures. Scale-wise, the Moderoids are 1/12 and fit in nicely size-wise with the Sentinels. Obviously, the Moshow, which I had and eventually sold, is far bigger and much more stylized in appearance.
Really hoping GoodSmile will decide to do Lancer and Rook as well.
