manage to get my hands on one of the x-bomber die-casts for $20 last week.
it was cheap as its not boxed and all the accessories were missing.
the one thing i always found annoying with these are the horrific colour scheme so i decided to do something about it.
so i took it apart,removed all the stickers gave it a coat of primer and base coat and then dug out my enamel paints and got to work.
its not turned out that bad.
X-Bomber die-cast repaint
Re: X-Bomber die-cast repaint
This turned out really well.
It has the 'super-deformed' Gundam / Minimates / Pop! Vinyl look to it with the realistic colours and cute proportions.

I guess they made it red/white to make it co-ordinate with the Dai-X and be more appealing to children.
