TEMU Bootleg Gunpla HG GM Spartan. ONLY $10 Way BETTER than Expected!

While Temu shipping is questionable... This kit was solid for the price.
Not Temu but I found it on aliexpress. Few different sellers but this one had good reviews.

What's up Gunpla fam? Today we are reviewing a non-bandai kit (first for my channel) Yes this kit is a bootleg of a P-bandai kit. While quality control that bandai offers is lacking for this Chinese model, it presents a decent alternative.

What's in the box
MiniGun
Heat Knife
2x Beam Sabers
and numerous options for hands
waterslide decals are an option but not standard

The positives of this GM certainly out weigh the negatives (my opinion of course) but lets go over my discoveries to help inform your descion.
Starting with best factor and my deciding factor... PRICE. $10 with waterslides and free shipping. Temu offers all kinds of perks for purchasing, so I could easily gotten this kit or another for next to nothing. The details exceeded my expectations as well.This a pretty close copy to the original and the details showed up well. You get a good amount of accessories and (my personal favorite) a base not included in the Bandai kit. Articulation was better than i anticipated as well.

Now the negatives for this gunpla. The plastic was soft, much softer than the OG. The plastic pieces seemed slightly off causing some issues with part alignment and making the polycaps in my live build a NIGHTMARE for me. The issues in seams are present in the original but due to the alignment issues, it was made worse. The head and upper leg stuck out the most. (some sanding and maybe glue would probably fix that right up) This is a hand grenade, seriously this gave my MG Dark Matter Exia a run for its money. Mainly the side attachments for the head antenna and beam saber hilts. Lastly the shipping. TEMU shipped this model in a bubble envelope, so the box was beat up when I got it. Model was fine (other than a piece that loose on the runners)

I clearly opted to purchase this kit and I'm pretty happy with it. You can't go wrong with $10. If you enjoyed this video and want more like it, lmk in the comments. Make sure to subscribe for more gunpla reviews, live builds, and gundam fun. Thank you so much for the support and until next LOVE.
