for comparison of both MG, you can check Dalong.net, but for some info:

X-bone Ver. ka and Full cloth are the same, same inner frame, same parts, although additional parts are included in the full cloth like the extra weapons and accessories, also Full cloth includes parts for Ver. ka, so you can mix and match the parts, just like what Z did on his X-Bone Full cloth (notice the chest part, the skull is for Ver, Ka).

Major difference would be the head as they have different design, Ver. ka has much more fiercer look than full cloth. 2nd difference would be the skull on its chest, again ver. ka is fierce, full cloth is somewhat Cartooney?. Other than those, most are the same from each other, oh and also, their color is a bit different, you can notice it on dalongs review.

Ver, ka stickers are dry transfer decal, need to rub em up, to apply. water/wet decals are sold separately or sometimes special kits does have it included.

Z, what are the actual differences between a Ver.Ka and MG Crossbone Full Cloth (besides the accessories). Is a Ver.Ka more detailed or different in any sense (structure and parts)? I’m currently looking at the Ver,Ka Crossbone more than its MG counterpart, anything to highlight? I have yet to master the skills of painting and deco (stickers and highlights),but can still do the basics. I believe that all Ver.Ka stickers are water-based? If so this will be my first model that I am actually going to apply them, any advice on this as well? Thks.

I have the Ver Ka version, the hands don’t securely hold onto the beam zamber or the giant sword blade well at all, even with the slot & tab system in the palm, it will stay in but slip out easily

How would rate this model from 1-10?

The same way I paint any of my other parts… dip it in tamiya clear red, and just brush away until it’s done. Brush size doesn’t matter but for something as big and wide as the Zanber, then you’ll probably want a wider brush.

Damn, i broke the X1FC wrist when rotating it. although X1FC is a MG, its wrists are pretty fragile, and weird

first question you can just easily blame bandai though I would imagine it would take a lot more (tiny) parts to fill in those colors so guess it would be easier to just paint them in.

I haven’t touched my Crossbone X-1 in a long time so I don’t remember if it is floppy or not ^^;

EDIT: I think the fact that this model doesn’t use PC parts is why it is “floppy” or the joints not feeling smooth/cushy.
