Cangdao Models 1/100 Metal Build Tianchen

 
 Cangdao affordable Diecast model Tian series is back again! After Tianwei and Tianfa, Tianchen makes its appearance. This one had design influences from Wing, Seed and 00 Gundam and originality is not the biggest priority when it is very affordable Diecast product. Schedule for Q2/Q3 2026 release, Cangdao 1/100 Tianchen will be sold for 298 RMB.


 On the first Glance Tianchen is amalgamation of Nataku and Strike Gundam with the weapons are heavily influenced by Astray Blue Frame and 00 Raiser, especially XN variant. Tianchen resemble Nataku when viewed from the rear with its full weapon setup as the protruding back cannon resemble Dragon's head. Tianchen's buster sword obviously heavily influenced by Astray Blue Frame and XN Raiser which really tells which Gundam series heavily inspired Chinese hobby scene.

What stood out with Tianchen is that just like Tianwei and Tianfa, the autonomous weapon backpack gimmick serve as prevalent feature which offer a glimpse what sort of designs if 00 Gundam and 0 Raiser went for jolly cooperation issues. Since I forgot to include Tianfa in my blog's archive, I might write an article for the fellow before the eventual review.
