It looks very much like my Badger 150 which retails as seen here for at least $110 US. Looks to me to be a knock -off.

I figured it was a copy of some sort since it is made in Taiwan. But sometimes these are the same as branded products but no name on them.
Bottom line - should I buy it as my first airbrush?

Dave,
I did a quick seach and found what I think is the same kit at
http://www.frontlinehobbies.com.au/shop/shoppingCart.aspx for 69.95. I could not find any reviews or comments.
