STK's Command Wolf Barad Ver. Review - P1

As a start I'll be reviewing about STK's Command Wolf Barad Ver. which I bought back around end of  February from a local seller. STK was a relatively new brand that suddenly came out releasing a cheaper alternative of 1/72 HMM  Zoids line.

I'll be doing a comparison for the HMM 1/72 Command Wolf as I have both  the ori and the pirated one.

Parts and details of the Command Wolf :

Notice some minor missing details, the pistons lots half of it somewhere.. XD And..the upper back armor's details are oval-ed shaped unlike the original

 The limbs:

I forgot for the top and bottom image, which is the left or right side. But anyways, the image in the middle shows some minor detail. These details would be covered up later by its armor and stuff so it won't be visible.

Zoids Core:

 The Right side is STK's which has a small long air bubble in it.

While painting the tiny points on the core I noticed that 1 or 2 are missing points on it. XD And the Core Holder has very minor detail lost. 

Front Legs:

Top image in the image above: The panel lining on the other half of the mold is missing.. XD I think one can carve out the lines, I was a lil bit lazy to do that. :P

In the image below showing the entire leg, you can see that original's part is a good straight cut, while STK's one has some extra plastic parts out a little bit.

Here, you can cut/trim it so the part fits in well. Or else it is a lil bit loose.

  

Rear Legs:

 Similar case to the front legs as mentioned above. STK's one needs some minor trimming to make it fit in nicely. You don't want it to pop out and go missing right..?

I almost cried when i was looking for it on the floor... ;_;

Some Details:

 Some difference in details.

All the armor pieces that cover the legs have these missing details [top n bottom]

Saved an image from the web as I forgot to take a photo of it..

Notice those small panel linings in the gray parts? STK's counterpart does not have those but you can carve it out too I believe.

The Paws:

My Ori paws and My STK paws. :P

LC: Long Range Rifle [as seen on official manual] or [Long Range Cannon stated in other sources]

-[Details comparison]-

 Some missing details that I miss painting most.. Was looking for it up n down but couldn't find them.

 Some..however, are too obviously gone.

Bottom view. 

 This part is the bottom end of the Long range Rifle/Cannon where the fans/turbines are.

The STK's one fits in nicely but seems like the shape is abiiiit out. At first I thought it was not tight in enough and tried to push but saw that it fits in properly.

The canopy/cockpit hatch:

The canopy/cockpit hatch for STK's one doesn't seem to open abit more compared to the ori. I did take it out again to check and the build is similar and there is nothing wrongly molded so..not sure why. But don't try to force it yea. Or it'll snap.

*[I didn't take the photo at a 100% side view angle to be able to show the difference, my bad.]

The Body:

Side view. They look very much similar.

Top view of the 2 Command Wolves side by side.

The Head:

1. The 3 panel lines at the STK wolf's cheek are abit thicker.

2. The fangs of the STK wolf are thicker. Now I don't know which one looks meaner. o.o;

Here ends P1 [Part 1]  review of the STK Command Wolf Barad's Version.

I'll have a Part 2 [P2] which is the last part of review for the STK Command Wolf. See you there and stay tune. :)

Photos are by me.
