I have a question. I want this body part but ¿It's all the body or just a some parts?
>>
>>11884827
There's not enough blue in the tray to make the body in the image. So, without knowing more, I would say you are not getting the ENTIRE body and it might not even be clear that you are getting the part of the body you are specifically seeking.
This is also a model kit that you assemble, and it does clearly seem to be only PART of that, and IIRC from buying one of these for my secret santa last winter, the reason they sell these girls that way is that some folks like to mix and match parts.
You need better graphics or more information, son.

are you blind? it says "Option Body Parts", everything that's included is displayed right on the box
>>
>>11884827
You need at least a head with face and hair, you can buy separate hairs and other option parts comes with blank face plates and heads, there's also pre-printed faces, though the easiest thing to get is a full sister since they come with everything, no matter what route you go they should ideally be color A to match skin tones. Pic for an example.

I checked just out of curiosity. I haven't actually purchased anything from this brand nor am I actually knowledgeable about it.
It seems they highlighted the optional parts in the hexagon, but the whole body minus the head is included (that's why it's the head is faded in the pics).

>the optional parts
I mean, the optional parts within the option parts (the front part of the skirt, the shoes...). The manual explains it.
>>
>>11884862
For this one you get everything except a head

>spreading misinformation about things you don’t own

>>11885009 and >>11885069 are right, it comes with everything except a color A head and hair which you will need to source separately. I happened to have just ordered this myself a few days ago and watched reviews first to verify. I grabbed a Fang Costume set for cheap for the head.

>>11884827
What others said. I do think 30MS line is unecessarily confusing with communicating what you are buying. I want to assume good faith that they don't think its confusing, but from looking at it most people will think you get a full body. I mean, why not make a shiliuette of the figure or do something to make it more clear what parts you are actually buying? The graphical design for this line needs improvement.
>>
what doesn't help about this situation is amazon, at least in some places, seems to only sell the body parts on prime but stocks nothing else.

Bandai distribution is remarkably shit for an all conquering hegemon. Not for the first time I wonder what it is about Japanese corporations that leads them to hate making vastly more money. I could double their sales in an afternoon with a phone, excel and the CEO's stamp.

They generally don't want to take risks (like expansion met with losses) no matter how big the company is. Because when it goes bad whoever responsible will likely be fired(voluntarily resign). Plus most of them going through the bubble bursting doesn't help.

You can see that one part is transparent or desaturated; if you have an IQ over 80, you'll realize that you will get the part in normal color.
>>
>>11891338
Because there's less demand for the option sets over the full kits
>>
>>11884827
anything that is not desaturated should come within the box
>>
>>11891703
>make the full figure take up 1/3 of the box design
>fade the parts not included very slightly on the rendering, on an already light background and figure design
Oh yeah its really obvious, couldn't have made it any clearer.
The name 'Option Body Parts' is the only part that makes it clear you are getting body parts (not a full body). Even that could be possibly misconstrued as a full body with options possible.
The better idea imo is to better highlight or point to the parts included with the kit on the front, ideally separating the faded parts from the model to show its a kit and that its only these parts. That way a person upon first glance realizes its a kit and the body parts are seperable, and the item purchase is only for the torso. I have seen a similar Bandai kit add-on more clearly shown in other products. I think they could do a much better job graphically showing what you are actually purchasing for the 30MS kits is my complaint.

I don't know what to tell you anon; there's nothing wrong with this packaging. You're either just an idiot or a troll.
>>
>>11893936
Agree to disagree, no need to call me an idiot or troll. I think its confusing packaging. Part of the problem is due to the nature of the product. It assumes you already know what you are buying this for. If you had no idea what 30MS kits are and how customizable they are, then any joe schmo will see this and wonder it is your buying. This isn't like a model kit for a tank or Gunpla that comes with everything included. The main issue I have are the images, again in my opinion, not being as clear as they should be. This would help clarify things visually for anyone interested in purchasing the kit to at least be aware of what they are buying. See the OP for example, they had to make a whole thread to ask because they weren't sure themselves. And I only criticize because I too was interested in some 30MS kits, but was confused what they were actually selling. So I did research and watched videos before buying any. Again, Bandai has made it clear with kit expansions like this before, it is only the 30MS line I think needs better clarity.

>>11893919
You're genuinely retarded. How low of an IQ must you have to not understand that you're only getting the colored-in parts on the box? These are Optional Parts kits - you're expected to already own a base body to attach them to, you moron.
>>
>>11893945
You’re not wrong, 30MS is very confusing. They market the ability to mix and match but a lot of parts aren’t compatible due to size differences and they don’t really indicate what is and isn’t compatible. They used to have a letter assigned to body types but seems they don’t always include it now.

>>11893982
Just because something is understandable doesn’t mean it can’t be made clearer and easier to understand. Things should be clear enough that even low IQ retards can understand them
>>
>>11891338
It's toys I am not interested in, especially weeb stuff, but when you are finding Bandai and SHF stuff at Ross and Burlington outlets, that is exactly largely poor distribution.
>>
>>11893945
If you're too retarded to understand, then the product isn't for you
Maybe kitbashing isn't made for you
