Cangdao Model SV-001 Metal Slug


 One of the great product released by Cangdao Model last year that arguably secured the company's place in the Hobby Industry. This item is basically a take on the Iconic tank from Metal Slug arcade shooter series and make it a transformable mecha. Usually this kind of stunt will be a miss, but Cangdao do make something that can be considered an engineering masterpiece from a Chinese company. Not only the tank Rendition is relatively faithful to the original design, The transformed mecha form is very solid in terms of  Sculpt. Articulation and Gimmick. 

Currently you can still find this product widely available for 80 bucks though i expected the Chinese SRP is in 300-400 RMB which is still worth it. You would be hard pressed to find a Diecast Robot with comparable quality with this kind of pricing. If this product to be released by a Japanese company, they will cost at least around 20000 Yen. Satisfied with my copy of Cangdao Metal Slug, I will look forward to the next rendition of Metal Slug Vehicle by Cangdao which should be warmly received should they make another one.
