Megami Device Asra Nine-Tails - UNBOXING and Review

[@mafiuyu4305]

she is definitely a great kit, some panel-lining and decals work wonders and make her look even better. and if you have some other kits you can easily make a 2nd megami device from the left over parts

[@goro5479]

Im starting to look forward to how he pulls out the boxes more than the review itself to be honest.

[@Tyrannotaur]

I managed to get a "used" one of these from AmiAmi, she's my first "Megami Device" kit strictly from that line. My first actual Megami Device kit was the Gene Stellatears from PSO2. I feel like I have now spoiled myself with Asra Ninetails though as I doubt the other kits will have nearly as much extra parts and options, lol. I managed to devise a variation of the Ninetails mode that uses all the booster parts and a few of the other extras, so I'm happy with that. I just wish the stands on these were better, because all the parts makes her pretty heavy lol. I also put the decals on her and it does make a huge difference (though the tiny gold ones are super annoying and I had to buy Mark Setter to keep them from falling off), but she's a great kit even without them. Really awesome review though, glad to hear you enjoyed the build and everything. Looking forward to the next one!

[@jbingbong]

The Magical Girl/Witch kits come with lots of fun effect parts that use the 3mm connection point. Highly recommend for the accessories alone

[@kiryuchan1178]

hey, im interested to buy a secondhand kit from amiami, but was quite unsure what 2nd hands mean in amiami. was the kit already pre assembled when you bought it?

[@KamenracerX]

​@@kiryuchan1178 Pretty late, but pre-owned model kits in Amiami are not assembled and usually unopened

[@lachlanwitten821]

I finally have seen empty space on the shelf

[@TheWizardjones]

Thanks for the break down. As a new MD builder, I didn’t realize that there were just extra parts that they throw at you for customization for your other kits.

[@qpiekkola1715]

So sad I missed the first run. Hope there's a reissue soon.

[@coreyjohnson19]

Dang that kit has alot of runners! Deff worth the money

[@HobbyWorksbyRani]

Finally reviewed! I have been meaning to buy this kit and waited for your review before i do. Thanks man!

[@bunnyfreakz]

Thanks, Zak. For effort reviewing those kits all those years.

[@ryzer_red]

It's cool to see these kits that I've never even heard of.

[@DarkROSkull013]

I'm getting this for Christmas. I can't afford the PGU anyways, and screw the other 1/12 waifu kits. This comes first. Lol.

[@Technicallyaddicted]

Megami device don’t disappoint. Try the new “auv” body model. (Susanowo, susanowo souen, Amaterasu regalia, and Susanowo regalia). It has better articulation than the Asra series and they are a blast to build.

[@johndaltrocanto]

Got myself the Amaterasu, og susanowo is kinda of a bitch to get because the huge box makes shipping prices skyrocket

[@johndaltrocanto]

this kits just completely tranforms once you put decals on

[@hawkaiserthefinalbrave1859]

I really regret not picking this up when it came out. Super cool looking but is absurdly priced now as usual with out of print koto kits.

[@ralfsstuff]

Hope you got/get one eventually. Exactly why I jumped at the Tamamonomae as soon as one was available to me. I' love to build it but honestly I'm kind of scared, just imagining how much it could be worth in a couple of years.

[@j-frame]

If you have the Asra Archer Ouki, you can get an extra sword from this kit. It come with an unused transparent blade.

[@whygids]

Speaking of Kotobukiya, last June they released or kind of a revive of 03-Aaliyah from the Armored Core line of kits they made. You might wanna give it a shot? It's been a while since you made a review of Armored Cores tho.

[@theleadingedge8226]

20:09 do not fondle 😹 kit looks insane

[@lordwisehammer]

Pretty sure that a lot of those extra parts are taken straight from the Gigantic Arms Rapid Raider

[@tonyyuu3421]

Yep, you are right

[@smithysmith6271]

When you building that gundam ez8 can’t wait to see it build. Maybe even a live build???.

[@rx-93nugundam20]

I like that it has 2 masks: A fox and a ninja one

[@Simon-hz7jl]

Still hoping for a reissue of this.... Will be looking foward to your take on the Tamamonomae review too sir!

[@paulnavarro8382]

Seems like the shoulder blades are kind of a deal breaker. Any thoughts?

[@iqbalprasadana5208]

Day(s) since Zaku hit his head for an intro: 0

[@dragoonzen]

Expensive but such an amazing looking kit.

[@haruharu0w0]

hmm, i still wondering about "Volks" mecha musume kit.... i remember there was a Rose-looking cool mecha musume

[@GarethXL]

the extra Q1 most likely due to the fact that the model is based on the ASRA ninja/archer but the chest piece is a different piece. and how molds are made where spurs with all of the same colour and material are fabricated on a single large mold, so rather then make a new mold it would be more cost effective to just print out the original base model and just fabricate a new mold for the chest piece

[@pepperhead7589]

USA Gundam has it preordered along with Tamamononae. The unfortunate part is I can't buy them without being stared at awkwardly....besides that, you made a great review to this day. Hope that they are available in the future still

[@johndaltrocanto]

Dude, do it, other people can go kick rocks, life’s too short to worry about what people think

[@BNuts]

So this box seems to include parts from: - ASRA Archer Aoki - ASRA Ninja (x2 since it has 2 sets of the blade effects. or is it 3?) - MSG Rapid Raider Dunno what the lance is from. That's already over $100 of kit in one box. Unfortunately I missed first-run because I was waiting for SAL shipping to come back. It's not coming back anytime soon, is it?

[@tonyyuu3421]

I notice of the Rapid Raider parts too haha I have that beautiful kit and about SAL I don't think so, maybe next year :/

[@N1k0SP]

IT'S BACK

[@Dreoni_]

I see a Dragon Pilot kit behind you....

[@CanJasonGetsome182]

good thing i got 2 of this kit gonna start mine soon!

[@NebbyGotOutTheBag]

Have built any megami device kits before? If so how complex are they compared to something like HG gunpla

[@CanJasonGetsome182]

in my experience, they have a tight joints and good plastic quality but the plastic gets stressed if you dont sand,rim the holes and joints. always make it a habit to adjust the fittings on any kit to avoid stress on the plastic when connecting them together

[@tonyyuu3421]

Heey cool Megami Kit, did you know anything about Frame Arms Girl?? I didn't hear any news about new cool kits U_U I'm assembling a Hresvelgr and I love it!!

[@LYVang-sl5jj]

Zak whats the most terrifying kit you built to the point you almost gave up on or its just too fragile to touch?

[@NeoSlashott]

It's definitely the 2nd hybrid kit after Sol Raptor ( which is Sol Hornet successor ) with both gears combined.

[@ZakuAurelius]

Indeed

[@FreakGeSt]

Twin tail hair blades, you madman.

[@kelvinle8662]

Damn....wish I known about this before it sold out......guess I'm gonna try to snipe myself a reissue if there is one

[@Lourdinn]

Where is the mg wing gundam review I see it on your shelf!

[@sorathestoner3539]

Did you have any problems with the arms?

[@ZakuAurelius]

Not really. What about them?

[@rubensiregar6890]

When tamamo no mae?

[@bluspeed7]

She sold out so fast. Hate I missed this one.

[@rokushou]

The new chest parts look like the 3rd party ones for the original Asra Ninja/Archer. Too bad it doesn't come complete with new hair and fox ears.

[@First-Name_Last-Name]

Got the 3rd party parts blonde fox eared hair/tail and chest. Made by SH Studio. Pretty bad quality resin kit, even for a third party manufacturer.

[@mafiuyu4305]

@@First-Name_Last-Name yes sh studio is a knock off that stole the designs from multiple sellers and they use bad resin pls don't buy from such a company. they are illegal knock off copies

[@First-Name_Last-Name]

Any recommended third party manufacturers that make good ones for FA and Megami device? I keep looking for it online and only could find SH studio kits.

[@rokushou]

@@First-Name_Last-Name I'm not very knowledgeable on resin kits. Most of them require a lot of work to look good so I mostly look at other people's builds and hardly use any myself.

@@First-Name_Last-Name try finding things from "muscuto" iirc. he works with kotobukiya to make the official resin kits

[@sensuii9285]

Does anyone know where i can buy one of these under $100 ive been looking everywhere...

[@ZakuAurelius]

The list price of the kit in japan was around $80 I believe, so if you can find the kit now for around $100 honestly that’s pretty fair and you’re gonna have a hard time finding it any cheaper outside of a second hand shop in japan

[@sensuii9285]

@@ZakuAurelius can only find for $200+..guess i dont need it that bad lol

[@AyBee9725]

Wow the default chest “Vulcans” are larger than Heavyarms lol

[@patrickleslie9932]

There’s some holes starting to open up on the shelves. Starting to do some damage to that backlog. It’d be a shame if a delivery of a bunch of other kits suddenly showed up 😳😳😳

[@chacrawarrior]

Anime logic: -Minion: General, the ninja is here. The general is watching her. -General: We are going to retreat -Minion. but Sir, we are 1000 men and she is only a ninja, don´t tell me you are afraid or her weapons. -General: No, that doesn´t scare me. -Minions: Then why are we retreating? -General: FOOL! Don´t you see that strip that covers her boobs?, that little fabric is holding those huge tits, I am pretty sure it is some kind of powerfull weapon or umbreakable shield. let´s pull back. Enemy army is leaving the battlefield. -Asra: Thanks goodness they are leaving, why they decided to attack when I was washing all my bras?
