@Iamjoker697@jhardini7@Dexerto I've been to KFC in China many times, you racist moron. No one there is aware of it having any connection to black people, for better or for worse.
@Iamjoker697@jhardini7@Dexerto Wtf are you talking about? KFC is the most popular fast food chain in China and watermelon is one of the most popular fruits there, especially in the summer. Their "sips tea" is literally "eats watermelon" and they grow and eat the most watermelon (even per capita) in the world.
@kui3582@culibern If that's truly the case, can't he sue? Kotobukiya distributes Hemoxian's kits in Japan (and the US), and Kotobukiya is the one that uses his machinika body the most. If he had complaints, wouldn't Kotobukiya listen?
@kui3582@culibern Oh, are you talking about E-Model? Dragon Momoko's people split into different companies, but I don't think Hemoxian and E-Model are directly related. To my knowledge, they are different groups of people that split from Dragon Momoko when it dissolved.
@kui3582@culibern I am aware that Dragon Momoko partially split into Hemoxian. However, I found that their mecha kits like Tastier and Baki are actually quite innovative. Their jiangshi kit has a unique design, even if the idea behind the joints is similar. It's sold in Japan, right?
@kui3582@culibern ? Can you give examples? Are we talking about Chinese companies as a whole, or specific companies? I usually buy Chinese kits that are also sold at stores in Japan, I think. My favorite Chinese kits are by hemoxian.
@kui3582@culibern I think hypocrisy matters, and I don't think it's fair or reasonable when someone is only concerned about an issue when it comes to one side when their side does/did the exact same thing. It's especially concerning when they try to justify/downplay it when pointed out.
@kui3582@culibern ...? I actually don't know what you're talking about, but it also doesn't seem relevant to the point I was making. If you simply want me to agree that it's wrong, then I agree...?
@kui3582@culibern Yes? I'm not defending counterfeits, I'm pointing out your hypocrisy in opposing legitimate CN companies that started out as counterfeiters because major JP companies that exist today started out exactly the same way, yet no one opposes them.
@kui3582@culibern Some of those Japanese companies still exist today because of the wrong they did in the past. The original Chinese model makers you mentioned also stopped making bootlegs. They're not doing anything wrong and are now legit, just like those Japanese companies. So why oppose them?
@kui3582@culibern Japanese companies at the time knew they were making bootlegs and their Japanese customers knew they weren't the real thing. They were sued by various US and EU companies. Like modern Chinese kits, the guitars and jeans were also high quality at a low price.
@kui3582@culibern I was mostly opposed to your comment against original Chinese plamo makers being former bootleggers, since that's exact same way some modern big-name Japanese companies started out. It's not right, but it's hypocritical to oppose one and accept with the other.
@ZakuAurelius@culibern@rainfine359 Bruh JP Gunpla twitter would direct their hate towards you if they were aware of the reviews you've done of the various 3rd party Gundam kits that USAGS somehow gets away with selling. You should probably just avoid this part of the community entirely.
