Quality
Don’t expect too much from a bootleg in terms of plastic quality and details. So if you’re very particular with those terms, buy original.

Cons:
Stickers don’t actualy sticks (get a glue or prepare your painting materials)
Some parts are quite bloated (its not that obvious, ignore it!)
Exia’s weapons doesnt fit very well to their sockets (this is Exia Repair II)
The shoulder part comes off the body easily only when you play around it (live with it!)
