Last time on Busou Shinki & Friends, >>11160747The first PUNIMOFU kit, Mao has arrived! Have you gotten yours yet? What do you think? Was she worth the wait? Are you excited for Tu next month?

So, Mao is really good. Only tolerance problem is some really oddly tight shoulders, and fortunately it isn't the ball, so a needle file takes care of it super easy. All the joints that were loose or popped out constantly on the BUSTER DOLLS now not only fit just right but also very nicely click in, resulting an a very firm hold in their sockets. She basically brings Block-2 back to the prior Susanowo level of fit. She feels super good in hand.
Her expressions are great, Blade really knocked it out of the park.I do really wish they would have included the MD and runner with her, the ones she has are not really adequate for many poses.
>>11188191Hand runner. There's not really a reason to not just throw it in. She's a unique color too so you can't just use the ones you already have like with the BUSTER DOLLS.
New Takahata Nodoka kit goes up for pre-order on Wednesday.
>>11188181>Have you gotten yours yet?Out for delivery today. I am excited. I see her all over the place online and she looks fantastic.>Do you want more PUNIMOFU kits?Yes. Two was not enough when we got 4 buster dolls. I hope they give us a version with skin tone legs and maybe a tan version or new girl.
>>11188221Cute gay dork
>>11188221To anyone that wants this but can't justify it since they have the first version... the normal version can be evil Nodaka.
>>11188229Update: she arrived! Just finished unpacking the runners and man is she smol. Like, I knew the block 2-S body was the smallest MD to date but she's even smaller than I was expecting. Well, time to start building.
>>11188539Have fun building her and post progress pictures
>>11188221Yeah, I can resist this no problem.
>>11188695I recoiled a bit, in fact. My preorder dry period continues.
>>11188695>>11188712The turbo homicidal lezbo mode in the anime made me actually like her a little, and in the game she's a little bit less annoying. Her slapping Sitara's tits was pretty decent visual humor even if Nodaka is generally pretty annoying.
>>11188762Speaking of tits, Eden MD when.
>>11188795Not until we get best titty girl
>>11188539If you have a spare set of BUSTER DOLL thighs they fit almost perfectly. I had an extra set since I used Susanowo's thighs on Tank, so I put Tank's thighs on Mao after slightly rounding the edges to look more compressed.Pic related.
>>11188181Haven't posted in one of these threads in a while, but it's been literal years since I actually had access to the girls. Don't know how much the originals are appreciated these days, but I'm happy enough to finally get the band back together I just had to share. I got another dozen or so set up on a shelf, but don't have any pics yet, still working on setting some other stuff up. But they're still fun to mess with, even with their currently outdated tech and articulation.
>>11188836Onee-san...
>>11188181>>11188182>Upcoming Releases & Restocksthere are 3 upcoming megalomaria girls toohttps://www.kotobukiya.co.jp/en/title/megalomaria/>MEGALOMARIA Peridot [Jan]>MEGALOMARIA Fuma [Feb]>MEGALOMARIA Green Glass [Mar]
I snabbed Klan Klan, looking forward to painting her. I like that she is roughly 1/100 which is unique among musume kits. I don't like how her Armored mode doesn't have a good stand mount point and her tolerances being bad. I got my joint strengthening pen in the mail today which has worked wonders, would recommend one.

wow it kinda looks... underwhelming.
>>11189120paint is mandatory huh
>finally selling the dress MSG seperatelyYes!
>>11188980The expansion set comes with Sousai parts too.
chinese dragon rider girl y/n
>>11189181
>>11188190I've been stupid busy, it's killing me not being able to build Mao. I like to build my kits in one session, so I like to set aside time for them. But I may start chipping away at her in small bits because all the pics of her just look so great.
which brand should i get for matte and glossy topcoat?
>>11189181Dang, thought that was one of those Koto HMM Zoids kits for a second. It looks pretty good. Nice.
>>11188974>>11188977gimmeGIMMEGIMME!
>>11189143The musume parts should have been included in the first place.
>>11189053If you guys want Megalomaria in the Op let me know. I will not be putting Mephisto, Ghillie Dhu, or the Hexa Gear collab Governor in for obvious reasons, but it's clear that they are (sometimes) suits.
>>11189181Looks dead on for a geno breaker
>>11189254...a girl after midnight, won't somebody help me chase these shadows away!

>MEGALOMARIA Which one?
post the concept art of the cop girl they showed she looked sick
>>11189379nice tengu
>>11189181Looks like she just rides it? Needs a cool combined form.
>>11189351Time to get both version
DLC hair piece as expected. This better not be kotobukiya shop exclusive.
Are you sure the Sousai T-whatever girls don't correspond to specific Megalomaria girls?
>>11189795I didn't realize someone already posted this pic, but my question remains
>>11189376wait, are they making big Hexa Gear Pawns?sick if true
>>11189376Honestly most excited for the Hexa Gear collab, it be nice to have more anime mecha guys to go with my gals.
>>11189426Whoa, who is this cutie?
>>11189798counter point, they're just color coding them and you can create a headcanon of it'course if it takes off they might do more integration
uh oh
>>11189465Pretty annoying they’re doing this now when the alt hairs used to just be in the base kit. Or am I remembering wrong?
>>11190073ChungusPedo
>>11189182>>11189181Her face suck, the dragon look fine though
>>11190190Kotobukiya stopped including alternate hair pieces after Emma. They explicitly mentioned that alternate hair pieces will be sold separately starting from Seira. I suspect Kuon might be the most expensive SST release given her scale + engineering that goes into her articulation.
>>11188190Mine is still sitting in my Private Warehouse. I'd love to get my hands on her now, but I need to wait for some other stuff to come in first so I can bundle them all together...>>11189181>>11189182Girl looks like shit, but the Not!Genobreaker might be worth the purchase.
>>11189104My god, Green Glass is just a mechanized Ritsuka Saeki, if this pic is evidence.
>>11190469Its her stand.>>11189361
And by the way, the lesbian freak is back with a new coat of paint.https://www.kotobukiya.co.jp/en/product/detail/p4934054062225/
>>11190475Why she is so costly, in any form?
>>11190547It's a big kit. Her binders have almost as much mass as the Ganesha's, and prices on everything have gone up 1000-1500 yen. This isn't even counting how Sitara herself was a mostly paid for mold while both Nodaka bodies are new.
>>11189974Yup. They already did it once with one of the Governors (Bump up Expander, or whatever the weird name was), so it was always really fuckin' weird they never did it with the others. Honestly, Koto should just do full sized kits of all the Governors. Probably sell better than the small ones since many of their designs are hindered by the tiny size.
>>11190596Bump up expander and rook aren't full 1/12-10th scale.
>>11190596Man, if they did a "full" size of the one that looks like Arnie
Holy shit there's a lot of girls from Alice Gear yet to receive a MD-grade kit.
>>11190672We don't even have the main girls in figma or MD yet. Where is Rin?
Speaking of big kits, I'm on the tail end of snapping Big Sitara, and I've gotta say: Good. Fucking. Lord. The chonk on her gear is incredible, I'm not sure where to display her but I'm still glad she's about assembled because her box was devouring shelf space.
>>11190547>Why she is so costly, in any form?licensing costs. all the alice gear aegis kits are overpriced compared to equivalent non-mobilegame-tie-in megami device kitsthey also have worse designs for the mecha bits compared to the asra/auv kits but that's just my opinion
>>11190369>>11190370I need more info on this. Specifically when and how much?
>>11188190i just realized that the loose flaps on her boob armor is giving them a very scandalous shape. TuT
>>11189181the Genobreaker bootleg looks good on its own, but yeah i'd change the rider with something else.
>>11190809It's a Plamax, and roughly 17cm tall (not sure if that includes the extras.Everything is TBA.
>>11190819
>>11190798It's really not the licenses in this particular case, the Megami Device kits are great advertising for the game and the designers work for both Pyramid and Koto simultaneously. Look at the price of the largest MD, Susanowo Guren/Souen and then the price of Nodaka and Sitara. The later are both larger kits and only have a very minor price difference comparatively.Now the Busou Shinki kits on the other hand... Koto has confirmed how much of a pain that license has been.
>Look at the price of the largest MD, Susanowo Guren/Souen and then the price of Nodaka and Sitarabut now look at the "normal" kits with fewer mecha parts like Kaede and compare them to Buster Doll or MD Regalia kits. they come with less and cost more
>>11190894Lol, no, the buster doll kits and Regalia are both much smaller than any Aga kit including Ayaka. You aren't factoring in that all the aga kits include two full sets of limbs and multiple weapons. Mao is a TINY kit but only costs 2000 yen less than your example of Kaede.Sugumi and Tamamo-no-Mae are about the same size plastic wise and they too cost almost the same.
>>11188560Finally finished snapping the base body. Didn't have any particular issues, I might get rid of the sticker for her choker and paint it instead since I wrinkled it somehow. I'm really enjoying this faceplate, bless Blade for somehow getting Koto to approve this.
>>11190819Thanks for the info, I guess the rest we'll just have to wait and see. But she's certainly high on my want list as I love me some 80s anime girls.
>>11191105Glue the knee caps and waist piece. It'll save you a pain in the ass latter.
>>11190672well yeah that's how gacha bezero chance koto could pump out kits faster than the game could make characters
>>11191340Aga adds about 4 characters a year I think. The major characters and some fan favorites are absolutely possible.Give me Mari, Rin, and Neo NOW DAMN IT.
>>11188181>>11191105Which 30ms sisters body is closest to Mao's size?How big is the 30ms reaper costume and does it only fit the regular sized ones like Rishetta?
>>11191626she's just the same size as the bunny sisters from two years ago
>>11191626Any legs and arms should work with the body, the height of the 30ms girls is mostly determined by the size of the body body and thighs
>>11191340I was merely playing AGA:CS on switch, and that alone has a ton of kitless, figureless girls.
is there any pictures of Mao next to some of the regular-sized MDs? Curious exactly how much smaller she is
>>11191762>>11191765Excellent. I hope I can have her soon.
>>11190547Double license, probably. Since the game treats her as a collab character there's likely some weird shit going on.>>11190469They explicit said its themed around her. Goddamned megalo encroachment. >>11190396they're starting to get a bit volks-ish with sousai. Bothersome. >>11189795They didn't outside kuon, but the guy in charge of megalo seems to be trying to make everything revolve around his line. Which I'd probably hate less if I didn't find the aesthetic far more miss than hit.I'm much more up on "cute girl that is a robot with cool weapons and armor" than "robot that's kinda girl-shaped".>>11188795Still waiting for them to finish sitara's team. Or even get yasuri to pair off with sugumi.>tfw megahouse will probably be selling dta fatima AN before koto even starts mai or ginny
>>11188762>harming the blessed chocomelonsThanks I hate her more now.
I think spending so much time with mecha musume has given me a thing for women with mechanical legs
>>11191762>>11191765I want her for the boob squeeze alone. Everything else is just icing on the cake.
>>11191762>>11191765Nice COOM
>>11192316Squish bros will eat well, but once again I doubt I'll have interest until a good recolor comes along.
she's here
Looks pretty coolhttps://www.kotobukiya-hobbyshow.com/hobbyshow2024/plastic_model_kits/16585/
and a new girl.https://www.kotobukiya-hobbyshow.com/hobbyshow2024/plastic_model_kits/16459/
Some good updates on the Hobby Show site
>>11192524>>11192531>>11192567>design by Z-tonMy disappointment is immeasurable
>>11192575>Z-tonWho?
>>11191776The fuck? That seems blatant enough that SST will shift to a darker theme from now on. >>11192010 seems to be further evidence.And by the way, remember Magatsuki, the one stuck in development hell for over a decade? She's here now.
Katsuguchi...It's been 3000 years....
>>11192524>>11192531>>11192567>design by Z-tonMy satisfaction is immeasurable
New 30ms Sestie. She's bigger than all the prior girls.
>>11192591>Color Cfuck yes
Summer Styko.
>>11192591Lets fucking goooooooooooo, shes bigger than the Neverlia body?? What show is going on rn?
Sol Raptor Beast Mode.
Blade Liger girl base body
Amaterasu Eclipse Regalia and Ame-no-Uzume Regalia.
>>11192593Cute, cute!
The MD blanks are now named as B1R Chassis Kit M&L.They are developing a proper upper torso to make the block 1 chest plates fit them.
>>11192583>>11192584Finally, a body positive FAG!
>>11192633I truly just want these for the neutral face masks.
New Dears is named Charmed apparently. She has definitely got that shounen anime protag look.
>>11192577How do you like your bananas?
Arcanadea is going to put out animal enemies for the girls, I'll bet they can become armor.
>>11192644>How do you like your bananas?Round. It looks like someone checked him a little this time. Good, though I'm still not sure I'm in for this one. the alternating fat segments really mess with the look.
>>11192635That would be this actually.Katsu is just strong fat.
>>11192651Meltina does look a little lumpy, but I do think it looks more organic than having strait pieces. I was actually specifically worried about that, but it works.
That is some shin armor looking ass tentacles...
>>11192663The rounding off is sort of necessary so there aren't huge gaps when the tail is posed, right? I can't really imagine a design where the tail is super straight/sleek AND able to pose dynamically with ease (unless a different material were used).
>>11192665Top of the head is a pair of heels, too.
>>11192676And in the mouth is a crown.
This one looks a whole lot more involved.
It's funny that the ones actually interacting with a Dears are all just bullying Vilretta.
Pic dropped.
>>11191105Finished snapping.
Kinda annoying that we still haven't seen Amaterasu AUV, but we do have an evil recolor.
Is liking bocchi cool now?
>>11192698Also, don't remove the lowest neck peice, B4(2), as it shows in the instructions, to change the chest plate. Split it the next joint up. Mine didn't want to come out and when it did it flew off into space and I can't find it. I had to cannibalize one from a Buster doll kit, after much cursing and moving of furniture.
Rufus is getting a qipao version

>>11192711Neat. Is she still going to be brown? The shoulder pieces in the proto look light
>>11192699Yeah, I'm getting this one.
>>11192721That's just her normal skin tone.
Giant Gourai is getting released, as is a fully painted and modeled version of her standard kit.

they are doing 3 sets of face decals for SSTs
>>11192649>>11192780They are called Xeno Alma (more on the idiotic L/R switching). You know what their purpose is anyway.

No idea why Kotobukiya thinks including a socket to hold the weight of the umbrella is good idea. The afterschool set released earlier did not require a stand so I'm perplexed by the decision to include this feature.
>>11192913>>11192967>>11192994>>11192995>>11193072Couple of bonified designs we got going on here for a coomer display.
>>11193072The afterschool umbrella weighted a fair bit, it's fairly clunky to get a decent grip on it. If the socket is optional it won't be a bad thing anyway.
>>11193076Clunky? I'd says it's chunky looking how big it's getting.
>>11192708Always was.
>>11192584>>11192583Good meat!

>>11193168>amaterasu SUVdamn i wish I had one of those hexa gear jeeps now; i could turn it into a go-kart for her.
I'm not gonna quote everything but holy shit, that is an incredible line up of upcoming figs to be hyped for.
>>11192711Is she going to be a regular release? Her other iterations were limited.
>>11192780Need to pick up those delicious Dark Advent money
>>11192593
>>11193271Now that we know she's real, I'm excited to see how they do the other variants, like the Extend Booster
Another Ms general model kit in Koto's store.https://www.kotobukiya.co.jp/en/product/detail/p4934054067060/My guess Koto share the same factory as Ms General?

>>11193273I love one piece swimsuits like you wouldn't believe.
>>11192740>fully painted and modeledWell, I'm out.
>>11192780Guess it's better than buying a second 'dea to fix the asymmetry autism these all have
>>11192593Double jointed elbows. She could be released early.
Can't wait for her release
>>11189795I remember reading one of the Sousai Shoujo Teien girls is an actress starring in the in universe Megalomaria show.
>>11192740Gourai II when?Stilett II when?
>>11192536For some reason Kotobukiya is the only mecha musume brand who could done face right, every other companies just look off in comparison
>>11193382Hold your breath.
>>11193277Pretty sure the msg exceed booster will just fit out of box.
>>11192536I don't like the red

>>11192680is that giant thing supposed to become armor too? I can't tell
>>11193799cute, wish they got a AUV for her though instead of Regalianever was a fan of Regalia in the first place, it was a cope product because Amaterasu AUV was in dev hell and now they're throwing out 3 more
>>11193830oh, maybe it's for Elena? I could potentially see it, with the hooves and allalso, here's the other alma as armor
>>11193273that's a sad ass
>>11193853It's a FAG ass.
>>11193415I mean, Dark Advent stuff is super nice too. Most other lines still have plenty of catching up to Koto to do though, yeah.
>>11193415They had plenty of practice at Konami.Like Benio or not, she ugly as hellllll.
>>11193799That's just a repost from when she was first revealed.
>>11194033never saw the first reveal posted ITT
>>11193457what's the appeal of the gourai?
>>11194033>>11191765Her boobs look different on the prototype

>>11193799>neetWell yeah I doubt there's many job openings for six inch tall "toy" robot girls.
>>11193309To bad it can't fix the shit knees.>tfw wanted soffi but then the faggot who caused the bad knees forced them into her battle mode legs too>tfw obvious that'll be the case for everyone going forward so I may as well ignore the line
>>11193277The otsu pair'd prolly just be new shoulder pads, leg armor, and weapons. And goggles. The type 3 with the booster...Prolly just not happen as a variant. Just buy a booster and have her straddle it.
>>11193613you can kitbash your own, if you weren't aware they have SSTxLittleArmory gun hands (both gloved and gloveless). sure the scales are slightly wrong (sst 1/10 vs la 1/12) but it works well enough
>>11194560Get used to it, cause the shitty drawer knees are coming to FAG soon too.
>>11194560the leg armor will cover up the knees at least...
>>11194560At least non-humanoids (the real stars of the line) are free of those knees
>>11194148I like Illshana with an axe.No so much those legs
>>11194646why are they still doing this after literally everyone has done nothing but complain about it
How interchangeable are the bodies for frame arms girls? I got Cornix and want to switch out the swimsuit for body armor
>>11194770Not very. You pretty much can only swap the head, limbs and whatever's attached with the 3mm pegs, and sometimes chest armor on the c-clip and back armor on the big square peg.
>>11194640I'm aware but I wanted more older/bigger girls, it's only so funny having the younger/smaller girls carry large anti material rifles.
Now it's time for the armor

Bros, I'm new to mecha musume. Any thoughts on Pinkle? Really liking the look of the Polynian figures overall, but Pinkle seems to be up for pre-order right now.

>>11195905Get her - she's one of the better designs out there. This is actually her long-awaited reissue; she got a single run back when she was first released, then became completely unobtainable for years until now, so if you pass her up, you may not get another chance.
>>11195939Thanks! Pinkle's coming home. :)
>>11195934https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIoDppJWHx8
>>11195940A bit of a suggestion - if you can find a cheap Clover or Torifoly, grab her, too. They act as 'nude' bodies that you can swap Pinkle's head or limbs onto, which is ideal if you want to dress her up in different outfits (only Pinkle's hip and thigh armor is removable, and her shoulder pads and chestplate make squeezing her into 1/12 sized clothes a bit difficult as-is). Torifoly is newer and may be cheaper/easier to get a hold of at normal retail price, while the normal Clover is in much higher demand. there's also a Clover Bikini version if you aren't comfortable with the full nudity but still want bare limbs and a chest that's going to fit into doll clothes.
>>11195974>almost an hour to introduce a handful of productsWhy are bandai streams like these?
>>11195999I skimmed through and they're not even new announcements just showing off stuff they announced a few months ago
>>11196001>>11195999They chopped out the portion for MS and MF.
>>11188897always warms my heart to see shinkis in the friends thread

>>11195999You think that's bad, I just clicked the channel and the next vid is 45 mins of the discussing a single Space Battleship Yamato model
>>11196133Typical Japanese work culture. Gotta milk the clock for all it's worth.
>>11194148"Not that you would. But you could."

>>11196247To be fair these 3 requires custom parts that is not available in the market to be reproduced.
>>11196247I always wondered how Japs make such detailed custom parts. Last time I tried bending polystyrene sheets, they would all return to default shape if heated with boiling water and heating with flame would either burn them or leave too small window for shaping (they cool down rapidly and lose related elasticity). So I assume they use something different.
>>11196284It's just their 3D printer and lots of sanding sponges.
>>11196284Autism. Lots and lots of autism.
>>11192524>>11192531So we got a Centaur and now a Snake, the only question i have is when are we getting the Arachne
>>11196356Not until after the fish at least. Maybe after the bird.

>>11196433Looks like they are using some sort of putty. Interesting. I tried making hair with green stuff year ago, didn't really work in the end.
>>11196506the text is too blurry for my ocr to work so i'm not sure what the middle word is but it say's tamiya [something] puttyfrom the colour i gather it's just tamiya's 2 part epoxy putty
>>11196140perfection!
>>11196250Read the text on the bottom.They tell you all the stuff they used and are easily available.
>>11195905Polynian isn't mecha musume, it's pure mecha. As far as how they are, they're typically nice solid well painted figures with decent poseing. Only real consistent problem is that the joints can sometimes not support the weight of all that pvc, and the pvc can warp if care isn't taken not to flex some parts wrong.
>>11196514Is there a difference between tamiya putty and things like this?
>>11196855100% different shit. One is for smoothing surfaces and making small details, the other is for full on sculpting and resculpting parts.Tldr don't buy tamiya putty if your trying to use it for large structural pieces. It's for finishing.
>>11196759>it's pure mechaanon, THIS is pure mecha. THAT still looks like an anime girl
>>11196514Aye, it's Tamiya 2-part Epoxy (quick type, specifically). I work with the stuff daily. You could point that color out at the drop of a dime after working with it a little bit. >>11196855Yes. It might be a putty, but it's specifically an epoxy putty. It's incredibly strong once cured and holds detail fairly well, and so long as there's something else adding structural integrity to it (metal wire in thinner parts, connected to an actual base structure, etc) then it holds up against physical trauma well too. I use it almost daily for my little ladies and other plamo. The only thing it's not good for is filling in large gaps or making entire large things from scratch as it's expensive for how much you get and is simply better used on top of things or for smaller parts. I reshape entire bodies with it to make them meatier, but I'd never make said bodies from scratch, for example. If you're heavily into plamo the stuff is invaluable and worth learning to use. You can buy it relatively cheaply from VOLKS USA (assuming you're in the US). The western equivalent would be Green Stuff (Kneadatite) mixed 50/50 with Miliput standard.
>>11196903Also, as a small addon to this, if you ever see Japanese models with weird yellow'ish sculpting material on it it's always one of two things- Tamiya two part epoxy putty (quick type), or Tamiya polyester putty (fucking impossible to get outside of Japan and nearby countries for a good price, but it's one of the best gap/seam/imperfection filler out there. Shit's magical).
>>11196903Would something like this work for sculpting as well? Getting the Tamiya brand is impossible in my country
>>11196889>>11196903You mean this putty tub is better for filling small gap and seam?
>>11196915Forgot my pic
>>11196918Not that anon but yes, this is more on the liquid side (not exactly water, it's more like mud) and it solidifies after exposure, you use this for filling small gaps and seams.
>>11196911you're on a weeaboo board, so you're going to get weeaboo suggestions depsite there being a hundred different alternatives, some of which are equal or better than tamiya.Just google that brand, and others you can find in your area, to see what people say about it.
>>11196911having tried sculpting stuff out of similar stuff, you are gonna have a hard time but its doable. the general repair stuff is crazy (haha) tacky and hard to work with, plus it dries too fastwhat id recommend is using air dry clay to create a general shape, let it dry and then smooth out the surface using the epoxy putty
> paint for stockingskek
>>11196905>Tamiya polyester putty (fucking impossible to get outside of Japan and nearby countries for a good price, but it's one of the best gap/seam/imperfection filler out there. Shit's magicalWhat make it different than the normal Tamiya putty?
>>11196937Air dry clay is very brittle when it actually dries, personally I would recommend Green Stuff mixed with Milliput in 50-50 ratio. GS is pretty rubbery and hard to work with but trauma resistant while Milliput is easy to work with and cheap but brittle and grainy when dries, mix get best of both worlds. Check https://1d6chan.miraheze.org/wiki/Green_Stuff for information on alternatives (from mini perspective but useful).
Just placed an order for her she will be my first. I hope I'm not entering a weird hole and start buying more girls.
>>11197040>I hope I'm not entering a weird hole and start buying more girls.I'm afraid I've got some bad news for you Anon.
>>11196940Strange dragon dildoes
Why 30MS Angel girl is noticeably more expensive than others? She don't seems to have more stuff with her than others.
>>11196963im pretty sure it's only meant as filler, for seams and holes. it's not some sculpting type.
>>11197069But this is a filler for seams and holes too >>11196918 ?
>>11197069Milliput is already great for that. What more do you need.
>>11193273Swimsuit Styko goes up for pre-order tomorrow, I guess she's the first for this wave. She gets cat ears, too. I wish they'd include the animal ear parts more often, it's cute.
>>11197164After my Styko broke in half I swore I would never another, then the high cut swimsuit version appeared
>>11197304>my Styko broke in halfHoly shit, what happened?
>>11197362A2 broke on the connection where the peg from A1 is supposed to go. I did a messy job trying to fix it but it kinda sorta worked, I just don't want to move it anymore. If I get the swimsuit Styko I'll sand all connections a bit
is 'beast mode' raptor new parts or is she just a red recolor?
>>11197113for me its cyanoacrylate and accelerator. i've heard you can use sodium bicarbinate instead of accelerator? but a bottle of accelerator will last forever anyway, just unscrew the spray top and use the stem to apply it like a brush instead of spraying it. spraying it is meant for gluing big objects together and you only need a few drops for anything in modelling.milliput works but i haven't found a way to store it long term yet, it dries up and hardens after like a year. cyano and accelerator keep forever
>>11197432Oh that. These internal parts are very fragile, sorry to hear that happened to you. Had something similar with Nuke Matrix fox girl, in the end I glued it and hoped for the best. She endured photo sessions so I guess it's okay.>>11197508Odd, I have at least two years old Milliput and it still works. Green Stuff blue part, at the other hand tend to dry on its own, which sucks.>sodium/accelerator + CA glueRecently I was gluing metal minis again and used just soda dissolved in water to speed up glue working but sometimes it would leave behind white, solid mass. Not very welcoming addition in my case but I guess it works well with filling small gaps.
>>11196911The answer is milliput.
>>11197053She sort of does, she includes a whole joint runner and has iridescent plastic.
>>11197545Baking soda and super glue is a great way to extend edges of parts when sharpening them.
>>11197451Those missile pods under her wings; regular Raptor doesn't have those.
S Styko is up on hlj
>>11197962Why am I doing this? We all know Koto will announce a version with a new hat on release day
Any non godhand single blade nipper brands you guys would recommend? my $5 nipper just doesn't cut it, Even when I do the 2 cut method it pushes the gate inside so the blemishes is still visible after sanding
>>111980573 peaks.It's actually easier to use than godhands because of the way the blades are aligned.
>>11196759>pure mechaPolynians aren't even robots. They're organic aliens, despite their appearance. The Motoroids are the robots in the lore.
>>11198057>non godhand single blade nipperdspiae st-a 3.0
>>11197962I hope those orange parts are properly colour separated.
>>11198139I wouldn't bank on it
>>11198155But the sensor on her long gun is a new piece.
>>11198057Any chink single bladed nipper will perform about 80% as good as an SPN-120 at less than half the price
>>11198060This is the only shilling I'm okay with, I think I've used my god hands only twice in the past 6 months since getting one.
HLJ has a 10% off shipping right now, should I do it or wait after holidays? Im shipping a soffiera and some SHF along with some gacha box bs.
New thread!>>11198475>>11198475>>11198475
>>11198474depends what you are waiting for, if it's too much it may be worth to just wait for it to arrive and then ship everything at once.
