I am now regretting not using more red pictures for the op.
Couple quick reviews...Rei is ok. Looks great. Posing is not, but I don't see her being particularly athletic in the first place. She's extremely expensive for what is here.
Ao is weird as fuck. I suppose she isn't actually manufactured by koto since she feels EXTREMELY chinese. It isn't a terrible feeling but is definitely very noticeable. The blue parts are very chalky plastic so mark very easily and thre are lots of oddly shaped nubs that aren't Koto's mo. Also rather expensive, but at least she's actually fun to handle.
Lisa! Doesn't bode well for the future kits for ValkyrieTune. I'm really upset by this one. She isn't the worst, but the build is quite jank. The mold quality and parts fit is not good at all. Lots aloft parts all over her fall off constantly. Her weapons are cool as hell, but actually poseing her with them sucks horribly with how prone to falling apart she is. This shit kills the hell out of me... I was really looking forward to Goodsmile putting something out at the quality of the Guilty Princess or birthday Miku, but am sorely let down...
Height comparisons, don't think I've made one in a while.
https://x.com/KADOPLA/status/2033785493842972947?s=20
>>11737305I love bunnygirl outfit so much it's unreal.
>>11737293Dang I was looking forward to her too. Guess I'll have to break out the putty it sounds like.
>>11737293Oh shit? Haven't actually pulled the trigger yet, but I was going to eventually since she and Iris are very cute.That sucks to hear.
I hope we get more loli and fatty megami device and frame arms
Aaaand that's a no for obitsu clothes on 30MS girls. Too bad, this outfit was really cute.
>>11737294Is it the camera making tricks or is that a custom hair piece for Yuki Tu?
Which punis have A color skin?
>>11737524The first four and Kuromao
>>11737501Definitely custom to some extent since Tu doesn't have that bit going across her face. >>11737384Considering Kagutsuchi and all the Puni Mofu, especially Mao and Tu, sold like absolute fuckin' gangbusters, more of their ilk is guaranteed.
>>11737559Cheapest option right now is the pre-order for Mao on the Kotobukiya site right?
The girlpla gacha has arrived
>>11737749I'm so mad this isn't in Canada
>>11737749I have a feeling it's just gonna be old FAG & SST shit with like 1 or 2 MDs that don't sell.
Sourei-chan...
>>11737828NOOOO STOOOP SOUREI IS ALREADY DEAD
>>11737806A swarm of 1.0 Gourai and Stylets', Hresvelgr albuss' and Arnvals. Lots and lots of Arnvals.
>>11737744Cheapest option is yahoo japan or mercari. The bump in shipping is still less than the import store's greed. To give you an idea, Mao stateside is about 60 usd before shipping, assuming shipping and taxes are 15 bucks minimum, your better off buying one for 45 overseas and paying the $25 shipping+tarrif.
>>11737907>ArnvalsStill pissed at FUCKONAMI that we didn't get MK.2s.I think it would've been better if they started with MK.2s instead of early ones.
>>11737384We could get MDs in SL/ML/LL. We already know the prototype for ML exists.
>>11737914I think they would have done better if they hadn't taken ten fucking years to come out.And THEN they massively overproduced, though that may have been to curb re-release issues since Konami may be in controll of reissues.
>>11737305Most of Kadopla's DX versions are swimsuits anyway, which is pissing some people off that they have little to no variation. Mai is different because she is the Bunny Girl of anime.On a different note, semi-Mecha Musume topic, we're getting close to the release of the 30MF Shakunetsu no Gai, and would be grasping straws at some people using his armor with 30MS kits (and a few Figure-rise sharing the similar construction style) if it's cross-compatible with 30MF anyway. Remind me when it's out or any one of you anons would pull off the stunt I mentioned.
>>11737806The US store most certainly has a surplus of SST stuff. I don't think there's an audience for it in burgerland so these mystery boxes will be full of them.
>>11738030I feel like the most usefull pieces would be his thighs being a better transition between 30ms torsos and 30mf lower legs, but bandai being bandai they will somehow fuck that up.The armor is going to be a massive mixed bag since the shin armor is attached with a slot instead of a 3mm peg and the shoulder armor is friction nubs. Tldr not worth 40 bucks for a character I have no attachment to and can't be used for anything but true kitbashing.
>>11737744It'd be Suruga ya's English site. You can get Punis for 50-60 during their free shipping periods.
>>11737828who is the girl in the left? not a fan of mecha parts desu, might swap her head with those 39min sisters. if not compatible any suggestions?
>>11738097Cutie Honey, one of precursors for magical girls genre, created by motherfucking Go Nagai himself. Also android and most probably precursor to whole "losing clothes during transformation" element of magical girls genre.
>>11738110Cool. I honestly dont know who that is, will look into it later. I mainly want it to make Tomo-chan.
>>11738035inshallahI think most of the MD designs are mid. I'm hoping for a full box of SST.
>>11738210No pagan gods for me, thanks. Only jesus saves.
>>11738210I always thought of the SST girls were a tad overpriced but if I can get a lot of them with this discount? I'm down.
>>11737749>oh neat, whne do these go u->SOLD OUTMOTHERFUCKER
>package arrived to the country I'll be impressed if it gets delivered in the land of sticky fingers but the other one got stolen in the land of the honorable samurai culture.
She arrived, with the P.O bonus too.
I got a kinder egg. Let's open it!
>>11738656First, the foil wrap
>>11737749I hate gacha so I probably wouldn't get one of these, but I could see it paying off since US collectors tend not to care too much about the girlpla that I like. 400 dollars of SST for 150 would be nice...
>>11738657To the thrash it goes
>>11738659Delicious chocolate
>>11738660But we're here for the toy
>>11738661Let's open it
NO DO NOT OPE
>>11738662What is this?
>>11738664Let's find out
>>11738666It's a meerkat! Thanks for staying!
Tiddies
>>11738670Now paint it
>>11738662>>11738664I half expected you to pull some actual girlpla parts out that you prepared.>>11738666Incredible build on that meerkat, 10/10.Cute photos!
>>11738670Kinder toys are so bad nowadays, i used to have a collection of cars, airplanes, Asterix characters and some articulated Mayan warriors.
2' long noodle.The head -> neck connection is truly horrendous; you might want to build out of order just so you can push the skull and spine together without risking the horns.
>>11738891Used to get little cars to build with flywheels in. That shit was the coolest thing ever when I was young.
>>11738919That thing is friggin HUGE. Can't wait to see the wings on it.
>>11738919cool lizard, what's the name of the kit?
>>11739070Daytime Meteor. It comes with a rider, whom I've already built: >>11721958
>>11721958>>11739081oh so she's like a dragon rider kit, she looks so nice on her own I didn't expect that she's not the main selling point
>>11739099Also, if you're generally interested in dragon kits, the Hexa Gear Agnirage is really fucking good, too. Rider not included.
Charlona is so fucking weird. First, she's the first 30ms girl I've built that had a significant joint issue oob. Her thigh joints were uselessly loose, like so loose you could helicopter them if not for her hips being in the way. That's the only actual issue, but it's absolutely crazy hoe much extra shit she comes with because of the way the runners are devided. She cones with...> All of Eliene's armor and weapons > the entire lower body of Rishetta Freesia> the waist and a complete set of arms off a 30mf knight> Knees from a the 30ms joint runner> dozens of other bits and bobs from other parts of those kits that can't be built because of lacking components like the feet of Rishetta and the knightAll this extra shit makes her price skyrocket over what she should reasonably cost, because the actual stock build is very minimal.
B1R-M sure is a megami device Kit.I hate the two piece arms. I understand it's for painters who don't want to seam wield, but it looks like shit in practice. The articulated eyes are also set a liiiitle too far back in the face plate to look 100% right.I think it's neat she uses the 3d printer gray that koto uses for prototypes for her limb color, even though it would be 10,000× better if they had just been white.
>>11738684Yes, Bandai, this is the way.>>11738919I'd be tempted to leave it like that and just have a snek. Too bad the torso is so pronounced.
>>11739276Bought her for $33 from PBandai store $3 cheaper than Replelo and $2 more expensive than Nyalenti. The other 2 have less runner when they come with a rides.
Anyone have picture of these with older body type like evil, chaser, etc basically neverlia type. I have chaser and evil costume waiting for armored limbs but so far i only see people using them on newer body like Sestieh and Yufia
>>11739278I didn't have the same issues with the eyes, but I agree about the arms. I mean, sure, they work perfectly fine so whatever I guess, but they definitely don't look better than the regular arms. I'm sure in the future they won't use these as much or at all.
Looks like Gai is out in Japan, our first 30 minute brother. Manlet...To be fair he's 14, still a growing boy.Either way, don't like how his crotch is done, looks more like a speedo vs the shorts from the show, could have color seperated the thighs a bit, I'll still get them probably.
>>11738097Cutie Honey, the heads should be compatible with very minor modification at most. Pretty much all mecha musume kits have heads with a socket on a ball, but the ball size is different. Shave down the ball if it's too big or use blu tack if the hole is bigger. Some kits even come with multiple neck balls.
>>11737468It looks really cute this way
Can anyone with knowledge redpill me on the different types of dolls in the 1/12 scale, and what I should watch out for when buying clothes? Like, when I go browsing for clothes on Ali just to get a feel for what to look for, they have all these abbreviations that I don't know the meaning of, like OB11, BJD, what have you. And the pictures I've seen sometimes have dolls with SD Gundam style huge heads and the like. If I'm just looking for body clothing, what do I need to look out for to avoid buying clothing for the entirely wrong type of doll/figure, particularly since looking for refunds is probably going to be out of the question?
>>11739578>OB11, BJDStuff like this just refers to the type of "engineering". BJD just stands for "ball-jointed doll". OB11 is something like "Obitsu 11" if I recall correctly. BJD is just an overarching term that describes the type of joints. The OB11 is an actual specific type of body (a chibi one). There aren't really any specific doll terms that actually signify tangentially whether they'd be appropriate for girlpla use. All you can really do is look for 1/12th stuff, or look at clothing lines that are known to work (Haisuke, Picco Neemo). For Aliexpress, typically if it works for girlpla you'll see it actually displayed on girlpla or known 1/12th'ish figures. Or you just search "メガミデバイス" (Megami Device) on Booth, and it'll show you nothing but stuff that works on them. Well, clothes and a slew of other things anyways.
>>11737281what kit is this wideeeee hip'd whore?
>>11739536Looks like a kid's toy and he looks like a fag (faggot ass gay), easy skip
>>11739601>Picco NeemoReally need to test Azone clothes on 30MS. I really want a mini skirt miko outfit and the only one I could find is 15k yen+shipping and handling
>>11739775I've got azone t-shirts and I kinda hate them because they have a velcro strip on the back to put the doll in.They tend to sit somewhat high too.But on the other hand, the tracksuit set is quite nice.I do have a Hasuki miniskirt and jersey set and the skirt is nice. Features a sort of a thong to keep it from rotating also has a velcro strap on the back, but isn't as intrusive as one on the shirts.I hope the skirt+shirt combo snail shell will put up be good. I really like the few soft goods I've gotten from them the most.
>>11739536>male 30MS>it's some gangly fujobait instead of a feminine trap with a tasteful bulgeNo idea why everyone is ok with Polynian owning the femboy sector
>>11739837Bandai are cowards, that's why
More parts are always good, this will pave the path for femboys in the future. We got Shion coming after all.>>11739679>>11739837
>>11739966Shion has the skirt, but Musashi excites some girls.
>>11739969Men and Women build artificial barriers amongst ourselves, but the truth is both sexes want to correct little shy brats like Musashi!
>>11739975August can't come any sooner, because that's a huge month for all sorts of toylines. Remember, we're also getting the 30MS Shielder Paladin Mash the same month, maybe even the same day, and I have been thinking of trading each others' shields.
Skin colour aside, the 30ms heads are universally compatible between kits right? I just got a few kits but I haven't built any of them yet.
>>11739997Yes, they're all on gundam sized head pegs. Be careful using gundam and 30MM heads on them though, the non 30MS head sockets are tighter. Could break the neck ball or the head. All 30MS heads are otherwise fine.
>>11739999Yeah, someone woke up and chose the true ultimate among AGE units for Madoka. Kinda sad it's not Titus, but this is way stronger.https://x.com/i/status/2035131760523321842
>>11740009IT HAS BEGUN
>>11739787>But on the other hand, the tracksuit set is quite nice.Kinda curios about skirts, maybe I should pull the trigger on this outfit I found>Just found a seller on ebay that makes 1/12 Blue Archive outfitsOh, it's so over for me.
turns out you can just go into a store on release day and buy something. over 100 people in line before me but luckily only some macross(?) kit sold out. stock situation of 30ms is still a joke.
I want the new china dress Kuon.>>11740029>stock situation of 30ms is still a joke.The stock situation of Bandai in general is a joke these days...
>>11740029I mean, it's the Durandal, one of the best Valkyries in existence, piloted by one of the better written MCs in the franchise. They want that over the 30ML stuff. Now I question if the 30MF Gai sold out.
She's back
>>11740050Should they do a transformed Madoka I WILL be doing a full kitbash.
>>11740043>the durandal>goodwaste of a name on a shit designOh right, girlplais it still worth grabbing the older ASRA archer/ninja releases? or are the older bodies kinda jank now
Gai waterslides, this would look so cute on some 30MS.
>>11740050There's some kind of trick that allows you to plug a ball joint connector to the AGE-1 shoulder since you have to find an easy mod to plug the Wears on a 30MS/MP kit. I remember it's included in certain kits like the Joint Connector Cube.
>>11740087You can just use Madoka's shoulders, just remove the inner arm protectors on the Titus arms. If you feel it makes her shoulders too wide there ate lots of kits with the shoulder ball joint.
Gai looks pretty cool, just the base inner frame that looks shit.
Bunch of new Sousai news
>>11740123#NeedTomboy
>>11740122This is the Dreaming Style Store Exclusive. There is a regular black hair/black uniform with the "Damage".>>11740123This also has a blonde/white swimsuit Dreaming Style Store Exclusive version>>11740124This also has a Store Exclusive accessory. set.
>>11740122>>11740123>>11740124>>11740126Also Ritsuka in a maid outfit with her tummy on display and airsoft (tacticool) outfits for the other season 1 girls. Which is cool and sexy and I'm buying all of them. Just one question: swimsuit/cheerleader/maid/China dress/literally anything else of Emma WHEN? Do they hate money? Or are they waiting to drop that announcement later so as not to take hype away from everything else?
>>11740123>>11740124>>11740126>>11740181You are killing me, Koto. Especially with the last one.
>>11740181I think they're staggering it. While we've got no way to actually confirm such a thing, it does seem like Koto does it fairly frequently.
>>11740187Tacticool sexo. Is it just me or did they get some upgraded curves in the process?
>>11740190Madoka reminds me a bit of their adult Hexa Gear forms. Color-wise at least.
>>11740124Oh my
>>11740110how long until bandai starts making original male faces for 30MF?these samurai troopers kits already show they can make some that look (relatively) decent
>>11737287>She's extremely expensive for what is here.Of course it is, you're paying the brand recognition tax on top of the model.
>>11740126>cat maidAw hell yea->>11740181>these colorsnevre mind
>>11740228Given this was the artwork for the event, something tells me we'll get other versions, to say nothing of the inevitable dreaming style re-colors. Or it's time to paint.
>>11740248As much as I enjoy cute outfits like this, especially maid themed ones, I simply cannot look at them the same way after visiting Japan and observing Akihabara in person. It's just too sad.
>>11740181The Emma development fund is being spent on Sana.
>>11740259Nyoooo!!!
>>11738919I'm really interested in getting this so I'd appreciate your thoughts on the kit when you're done building it.
>>11740122That is great I WANT IT,>>11740147>>This is the Dreaming Style Store Exclusive.Fuck.
went to a hole in the wall store that sold booth stuff. pretty interesting but damn this shit is expensive. even the 3d printed accessoires.>>11740122thought this is an emulator kitbash for a sec>>11740123SEEEEEEEEX>>11740147>This also has a blonde/white swimsuit Dreaming Style Store Exclusive versionits a whole new kit, not just a body for rui saotome? also fuck their store exclusives, such a pain to get>>11740190i've been wanting more tacticool ssj because its the line that works best. thurd party tacticool stuff for MD is just weird
>>11740280Here's the Dreaming Style
>>11740289im gonna lose itand by lose it i mean i'm gonna bustthey really makin me buy all 4 versions of her
>>11740123Ack! My one weakness - tomboys in swimsuits!
>>11740110The face/hair still looks gay, but look how much of an improvement a male physique really changes the vibe
>>11740181I agree, I also want my daughter Emma's new outfit.
>>11740122idk about the megalomaria lore but isn't this like the human actress of Emulator? Instant PO if she is
>>11740347It's more likely Emulator disguising herself to get close to Maria
>>11740348Cool, I'll get her then
>>11740347Actually it's the dreaming style version of damaged Kuon, but it's the same hair as Emulator.
>>11740347Based on the sword and blond hair I would imagine that's what they're going for. Emulator copies people, so it seems reasonable that that's how she'd look as Kuon's Maria. She wouldn't have the eye thing I don't think, just like the original Dream Maria.
>>11740354>>11740352Why does this story sound more interesting than most stuff coming out lately? Give me a 12 episode series
>>11740381Megalomaria? Maybe partly because there's lore written into each character's bios, and partly because there's actually a web novel tied to it that you can read on the official page. This makes stuff a lot more concrete and easier to stay interested in than, say, the FAG or Megami Device stuff that's intentionally open-ended with its lore and characters.
>>11740181I bet the alternate outfit Emma is stuck in some kind of prototyping hell because of her smolness.It's probably why we're just getting that re-color with scooter set next month. To tide folks over.
>>11740418Why she is so smol and cute.
>>11740409>a web novel tied to it that you can read on the official pageah, makes sense. Translated I assume, right? RIGHT?
>>11740418I wanted to buy it but it got out of stock before I could P.O it.
>>11740425If it's text you could always mtl. Not that it would be great. There's an SST audio drama that I'm assuming is why they never did an anime. Maybe it's time to rewatch the FAG anime while I wait for the Arcanadea one.
>>11740471Translators are actually quite good since last few years. I regularly read Pixiv novels with Google Translate and it seems fine. In theory, you can also use one of chatbots but they usually block "bad" content.
>>11740251Explain? Did reality shatter your fantasies, or was it something else?
>>11740658Zamn!
>>11740634Not the same guy, but I've also went to a Maid Cafe irl. It's very cringey IRL and filled with scary stereotypical Otaku that make you reconsider your life choices.Anyway the Gai customs are looking cool on the JP side of Xitter, can't wait to get mine.
https://x.com/JDABCBLQED2012L/status/2035311503705047407?s=20Great month for model kits
Madoka is always at the forefront of mechanization
>>11740634Something else - it was like having everyone suffering under all those smiles and gestures. Both sides - clients and girls - playing their precisely defined roles with no room for deviation, both being essentially dead inside. Girls are mostly students trying to earn some side money and most of them find absolutely no pleasure in what they do, many actively hating this. Imagine having to spend several hours on street in such outfit, handing out leaflets to strangers, often without a break, but at least with protection of your "manager" who is your pimp in everything but name.Maybe I'm exaggerating, but this felt like perversion of everything fun and adorable in cosplaying. I didn't even get inside of such places, assuming that I would be milked dry from money, similar to how European nigh clubs do.
>>11740867Nah Caberet clubs are where you'd get milked for money and debt slaved. Maid cafes are overpriced but not the worst.
>>11740867I see, I was thinking it might've been something like that. The sad reality of it being a (soul-crushing) business.
>>11740898Ironically the fetish bars like the muscle bar and fat cafe feel less soul crushing to me. Might be because of the niche clientele or the novelty of the situation vs the traditional maid cafe.
>>11740867Just remind yourself women are adults and have agency and in most cases are not forced to be there
>>11740867My nigga, most jobs are soul crushing experinces, it's up to us to allow it to happen or take it in stride.
The 30ms Yufia and Sestieh kits should've gotten reprinted this month, how long does it usually take before North American stores start getting them back in stock?
>>11741310Shops stock travel by sea so I would say few months at worst.
>>11741163NTA, but while you'd normally be correct, he's talking about Akihabara - that place is run by Yakuza, and pretty much everyone there owes them money for one thing or another. That anon is correct about their managers being pimps in all but name, and about how much they hate their jobs but have no choice in the matter because the yakuza have their fingers in EVERYTHING there, and if you're stuck living in the area then you're trapped playing by their rules.
https://www.kotobukiya.co.jp/blog4/sousaishojoteien/article/detail/161/Pre-orders for tomboy swimsuit goes up tomorrow, here's the blog post for her.
The white and black parts are colour separated plastic, and she's shiny too.
>>11741767I really need the white variant
>>11741767I'm glad I can continue to use the joints as a reason not to buy into the line.
>>11741769Shiny butt
Has anyone ever done a custom hair paint job on a girlpla before? What should I look out for if I decide to do something like that?My Cyclone Hopper just shipped today, and I was thinking of changing her hair color since she's Kamen Rider themed and I wanted to change her hair color to look more like she's Japanese, like black hair with a slight brown tint or brown hair with blonde streaks, the kind of hair you would actually see from toku actors. But I'm also concerned about moving parts and joints that might fuck that up even with a top coat, and I don't even know if there's any sort of cross-compatibility with other existing kits or if there are third-party hair pieces that are made for Nuke Matrix kits.Is it something that's even doable, or are there so many potentia pitfalls that I should just leave her hair white?
i got the hoihoi san & hoihoi heavy arms new edition has anybody here got it? i dont make that many kits but i am a fan of the series
>>11741944>Has anyone ever done a custom hair paint job on a girlpla before? What should I look out for if I decide to do something like that?Take a course in sculpture. Or at least practice on some polymer clay first like Sculpey because it's definitely not easy to make custom hair like that. I experimented before with making braids out of Milliput/Green Stuff mix and main problem was how they tend to easily stick to each other while having rather short working time. It definitely helps to make some sort of wire skeleton for bigger strands. I saw some Japanese guys using polymer clay they harden a bit first and work in layers so it's good strategy as well. You can see some examples here: https://youtube.com/@Korokke_kudasai/videos
>>11741955Sorry, I meant painting the hair that comes with the kit, not sculpting my own custom hair.
>>11741944Oh wait, you mean painting custom, fuck me. No, moving parts won't be a problem, especially if you intend to cover it with lacquer, which is rather durable. For single strands you better grab a brush, it shouldn't be hard. I painted 30MS hair twice and it was kind of relaxing.
>>11741944Hair isn't really harder than anything else, the same rules apply. Mostly that means painting as little of the joints as you can get away with and blasting everything with topcoat. You may as well take the opportunity to fill in any obvious seams you can as well if you feel motivated.
>>11739536what girl is that on the left?
>>11742002Newest 30MS, Belvera I guess (her name is once again obscured on box).
>HLJ hasn't charged me for MadokaThey charged me the new 30MS girl (that I kind regret getting) and the cubes, where's my Meduka?
>>11742149Theyre probably going through their bandai stock. I havent gotten charged for slifer yet despite ordering RIGHT away. There is no way that i didnt get my slifer since I managed to get destiny sd at the same time.
>>11742149>new 30MS girl (that I kind regret getting)Which one?
>>11742218Belveria-Berys
>>11742221Looks banging though, and comes with two beam rifles which other sisters are severely lacking.
>>11742157>>11742149>Just got charged YE->And for Roxy tooNooooo!
>>11742258Same, I was about to tell you that youre probably charged now.
>>11742221Waiting for Myasty
>>11742266Can't wait to breed Meltina with that thing.
>>11741769Gaijin Rui looks lewder than regular Rui, goddamn.
>>11742402Emulator looks great in her swimsuit, too.
https://x.com/wavemomchan/status/2036088217892798479?s=20Glossiness of this level would work great with (lewd) girlpla, wonder how they did it? Floor wax?
>>11742446>Floor wax?Most likely 2K gloss. 2K gloss black base, small layer of metallic (most likely chrome) over the black, thin layer of clear red over that to get an already highly reflective finish, and then the 2K gloss clear to elevate it more. 2K paints are how a lot of these customs in the past 2 years or so have achieved these ridiculous candy/chrome high-gloss paint jobs. Shit's magic, but it's also several times more toxic than regular lacquer paints and requires a more advanced PPE and exhaust system in order to not give yourself immediate explosive turbo lung-cancer (I'm only half joking).
>>11742454Oops. And yes, to add on to that, you can use gloss in varying levels to create some lewd body effects, or just an outright wet/sweaty body.
>>11742446Well, if you want gloss effect on bodysuits or something similar, I once tried applying water gel ("fake water" for diorama) over previously painted test section and I liked how it indeed resembled some sort of rubber layer.
Have any of you guys ordered from Imaginaire before? I ordered the fat girl from them but they haven't shipped her yet and it's been 4 days. Is this normal for them?
>>11742507Blue board!
>>11737275
>>11742489>ImaginaireThey're legit, at the very least. Can't say anything about their individual treatment of customers and their orders though.
>>11742507Zamn! That's a big clit!
>>11742507SEX
>>11739640reply please
>>11741946I have the old Heavyarms. I don't know what the difference between the old and the new is, I assume material.The kit is okay. Seams on all limbs in a standard koto fashion. The sleeve on one of the shoulders was kinda hard to join together while trying not to destroy the frill. I ultimately left it not fully connected.
>>11742454Yup, 2K paints are basically sprayable resin in a can.I've also been seeing people using clear UV resin to finish their 3D prints, which is way less messy, but that's probably too viscous for something as small as girlpla.
>>11742521I'm sure they're legit, I've ordered from a few smaller shops in leafland before, sometimes they take a few days to actually ship their stuff though.
>>11742507Sister, think of your dignity and hide that orange sized clitoris behind a maebari or something.
>>11742521>>11742610Meant to reply to>>11742489
The first of Meteor's forelimbs, and the first bit of genuinely bad design on the model. The big gold bit you can see is too tight against the diecast elbow joint, and the coating on the inner side of it gets scraped when you flex the limb fully.No time to make the hand today, for I am about to make pizza for dinner.
>>11742620The walking dead ended in less seasons than it's taking you to put that dragon together.
>>11742657As someone who owns the kit and took one look at all the runners before going NOPE! and sticking it into my backlog, I can safely say he's putting this thing together much faster than expected.
>>11742618>>11742610>>11742521Thanks guys, I just got a shipping number today, hopefully they come through.
Does Materia anon still lurk in these threads? Just finished a Shiro. She's so damn flat! Still need a teacher version.
>>11742657Just for that, I'm gonna go even slower from now on!
>>11742507Every kit needs this
>>11742454Man, I just got into airbrushing a couple of months ago and have been doing it without a mask outdoors. What kind of mask should I invest in?
>>11742507is that a mod or is that john bandai's doing?
>>11743172Mod for sure, just a bit of sanding.
Anyone have a good pic of the ugly ass hips on the Umamusume FRS. Need to show a friend cause he wanted to get some.
>>11743084If you're airbrushing lacquers, then you need something rated for organic vapors. Masks won't do, you need an actual RESPIRATOR. a 3M respirator with 60923 filter cartridges combo will protect you from all lacquers, and 2K. Though, if you do eventually decide to go the 2K route, not only are those filters mandatory, but you'll want full PPE (as little skin exposed as possible, at least your arms and hands covered, and trade the 3M respirator out for a 3M full-face mask). Shit ain't no joke, but it produces magical results.
>>11743224Well fuck, guess I should hold off painting until I get a respirator and a spray booth. I've just been doing it in my house yard without a care.
>>11743219This one?
>>11743238Yeah thanks that's basically all I need. What were they smoking.
>>11743281Just make your own Uma.
>>11737281why no one tells me what figure this this??
>>11743295There's already a 30ms uma but the FRS team got butthurt so the other ones have been under the FRS line despite just being 30ms kits
>>11743325Yeah the 30MS Teio have better tech and builds it's also look cooler because of the mecha musume looks. I only own Suzuka and she is fine for the most part, If it's released recently I could see the Teio, Special week and Suzuka being released under the 30 minutes preference lines like the other non Bandai anime. At the same times I'm glad they are FRS with FRS prices..
Madoka is going even further beyond
>>11743399Haven't seen this in like 10 years.
Got some girlpla today. Going to build myself big Gourai first, then maybe the fat FAG. Not pictured: my closets full of backlog.
>>11743539Good taste. I like all of these (no opinions on the Gundam, though).>closets full of backlogCouldn't be me...
Do stores usually put reprinted kits up for pre-order before they restock?
>>11743295>sprint costume>those earsThey didn't even try to hide it
>>11743399I need to see her head on the MSN-04 II Nightingale.
>>11743671
>>11743539absolutely nice
Absolutely crazy 1st place entry from the 3rd 30MS audition.>Naomi “Smash Wilder” McClain>She goes full throttle whenever she senses trouble. A wild show dancer who traverses the wilderness.>"Maybe it's freedom! Probably justice! We can worry about the details later, right?!"
>>11743919>American flag motif plus a Native American headdress>blond-haired and blue-eyed but darker skin toneIt's like looking at a female version of Chibodee Crockett, but offensive for an entirely different reason.
>>11743928>offensive for an entirely different reasonChibodee Crockett is offensive now?
>>11743928I see nothing offensive at all with her or Chibodee Crockett. Or is "offensive" the term used for "fun" by you youngins in this day and age?
>>11743964Fun is problematic.
>>11743919Audition what now? That's unfathomably awesome though. I assume it's made by a Jap since their view on what makes America cool is always way better than what most Americans will come up with.
>>11743919I love how the pants and heels combine together
When I saw the promo video I thought she had Qubeley legs. Slightly disappointed they're soft goods clothing instead.
>>11737287The price is the same bullshit on the bocchi girls kit.
>>11743919should've had more rhinestones
It is all over for me.
>>11744165seeex
>>11743919>my great grandmother was a grand Cherokee princess
>>11744165do they come with the costumes?
Snapped up Honey today, and painted her gold parts and a bit of metallic under the clear sections on her breasts. A very nice looking kit but the engineering and feel is a step or two below modern Koto kits. All her parts being PS asides from the clear runner is a bit of a pain, some POM for her joints would go a long way, alongside another round of spit-shine on the engineering. I swear the double ball joint bit to connect her torso up is like 2mm or something too short, it's so odd.
>>11743919I wish American girls were real . . .>>11743928>offensive
>>11743928By "offensive" you mean cool and fun, right?
>>11744307looking good
>>11744307This cutie has grown on me but she's one of the rare kits to triple up in price after release
>>11744347I imagine they might sneak out a re-issue alongside the regular Honey Kisaragi kit later in the year, but HLJ still has her in stock at regular price if you're after her now.Hopefully these sell well enough to get us a classic Honey eventually too. A Devilman Lady and Sirene would be cool as well, but that's probably asking for too much.
>>11744356Ah, thanks, don't like HLJ so I'll wait. As long as I eventually get her it's ok
>>11743539>>11743613>>11743895And here she is. Really loving that they included the cat ears. In the past you had to steal some parts from an Innocentia or maybe Latetia to make a cat-eared Gourai. Outfit is an Azone 1/6 Q'z String Bikini set Black, fits really well (would be better if I had the manual dexterity to tie the top properly). The smug smile is kino, we need more smiling faceplates for all the FAGs.
>>11744165I'm kinda jealous, mine are still in the private warehouse.>>11744213I don't think so, the same intention seems to be you'll dress them in doll clothes. But having them naked on the box art might have been pushing things a bit too far.
One of my Nuke Matrix kits just arrived today, and holy shit the box is fucking big
>>11744395I find great she's 1/6, that means most of the fashion doll clothing will fit her without too many problemsnow, if only she wasn't so damn expensive (and unavailable nearly everywhere not called aliexpress)
>>11744446The Cyclone Hopper? Mine is supposed to arrive tomorrow.
>>11744453Nope, got the Carolina Rolfe kit on sale off Aliexpress, I'm just happy the box survived the trip lol.
>>11744347>but she's one of the rare kits to triple up in price after releaseThat's a bit surprising to me, I hardly saw any buzz about her on here, so I thought nobody cared. Guess Japan was more excited about her.>>11744395Looks lovely! Girlpla is gonna make me a dollfag one of these days.
>>11744465I usually get stuff from Ali packaged well enough for what it is. Has that not been what you've run into?
>>11744472>make me a dollfag one of these days.Way ahead of you. I already owned a few dolls and then when the dress-up bodies came along many of those clothes found new applications.
>>11744482Generally it's a mixed bag, she arrived with just a bit of bubble wrap, not much but it was enough. Usually I'm buying bootleg gunpla off Ali so I've just gotten used to them tossing the box in a bag with zero protection.
>>11744213Nah, its just the girls. I'll out them together and then see if regular 1/12 clothing works on them. So far it's been fairly nice to build, the manual even comes in Japanese, English, French and German.
>>11744395That face is very...mannish. Not gonna lie.
https://x.com/pmoa_plum/status/2037365006636097741?s=20
>>11744615Wat
>>11744307Those wrists are gona be fun when her sword comes out.
>>11744840is that...
>>11744846NTA, but that's just plasticizer leakage - the fate of all Busou Shinki, sadly. I've been fortunate in that only two or three of my gals have started to "sweat", but it's inevitable that they're all going to start oozing eventually - the older MMS1s, at the very least.
>>11744307god damn anon, I didn't notice those huge scratches all over her kit earlier. Polish that shit I'm getting OCD just by looking at it
>>11744615Tomboyish, yes. I wouldn't say mannish. There's a very important difference.
>>11744853We all know that nothing is forever, but it's depressing that even figures will deteriorate just by existing.
>>11744946To be fair, it largely depends on the type of plastic used as well. Figures from back then weren't exactly made by the highest of quality materials by today's figure standards. The ones we've got today will last infinitely longer in terms of holding off plasticizer leakage than the likes of Shinki, or early-era Figma/Nendoroids/etc.
>>11744827hah i was at their hq store just yesterday. i'll try to find the booth tomorrow. there's also a gochiusa stage panel happening
>>11744827God, I hope they make ones of the rest of the cast too. At least her two classmates.
>>11744946I dread of the moment when my precious plastic girls will break and crumble due to plastic oxidation. I'm honestly afraid of moving my first one, blue Innocentia.
>>11744395very cute
>>11744946>They keep telling us that plastics persist forever>Yet my Shinkis won'tThis is bull. At least they'll live on for eternity in our hearts and bloodstreams.
>>11744827Doyakongo...
Meteor now has two paws, and since I think dragons should behave like cats for some reason, I put her into this pose.
https://booth.pm/en/items/6693474
do you throw the boxes the kits come in away?
>>11745215I carefully flatten them and store them neatly in a box.Just the tops, though, I throw away any plain cardboard bases. I'm not mad.
>>11745257>I carefully flatten themHow do you do that without making ugly cuts?
>>11744879If it makes you feel better it's been bugging me all day too. Long, slow day in work and all I could think about is polishing her up.
>>11745265I normally peel the glued-down tabs off gently, then trim them off. As long as the printed side is fine, I don't mind the back being a bit scruffy.
>>11745215depends on how much I like the boxart. If I don't I trash the box and put the pieces + instructions in a plastic bagI'm running out of closet space because there's too many boxarts I like...
>>11745165
>>11745439Fuck. I swear I wasn't trying to emulate the doge; You gotta believe me!
>>11744307You could maybe get the POM joints from those Megami Device joint sets. Too small? Try Frame Arms Girl joint sets instead, because I swear, they have the POM joints sold separately.
>>11745165She's looking lovely, though I need to see those haunches done ASAP.
Alright, got the wolf girl done. The legs are a more more intricate to build that I thought. They do give you a lot of switchable parts tho, full furry legs and arms, full furry faces (with pose-able eyes that I didn't insert) a few hand options for both full and half furry designs and a different chest plate. The latter is welcome, seeing how I want to give them clothing and the wolf girls tits are fairly big. Will have to paint the paw pads since the hands are not painted and the plastic for the foot pads really doesn't like to be nipped out of the runners.
>>11745640And here a closeup of the girl, hopefully correctly rotated. The stands are not included btw, so get some spare if you don't have any. Also, the little photo booth Doyusha sells is amazing for quickly taking pictures. Worth the 20 bucks imo
>>11744827I remember my days of watching Gochiusa. Cute daughter. No joints in those promo pics though.
>>11745642your post and this guy's vid sold me on getting 2 of the grey wolf kitshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-M7LVtrv4k4
>>11744453The box is very pretty, it almost feels like a waste to eventually throw it away once I'm done building the kit. It's also pretty damn big, like easily bigger than a plus-size MG box, probably because it's literally three figures total (the Rider, the casual clothes version, and the bike).
>>11745640>>11745642Oh hell yeah, my cat just came in today. Gonna try and bash these kits together. Teeny bit annoying that I gotta paint the paw pads but it was kind of expected, is the overall build quality good?
>>11745785>is the overall build quality good?I'd say so! Not that I have too much experience with it yet, but it was fun enough to build and its easy to pose. Currently building the cat and she is even nicer to build because the white plastic is much nicer to cut that the brown one when it comes to leaving cutting marks. Which parts do you plan on kitbashing?
>>11745793>Currently building the cat and she is even nicer to build because the white plastic is much nicer to cut that the brown one when it comes to leaving cutting marks.They don't undergate the pieces at all? >Which parts do you plan on kitbashing?I'm not really entirely sure yet, maybe try to achieve something similar to pic related. Only grabbed the Asra Ninja because it was uber cheap for whatever reason.
>>11745799That looks awesome! Please post her when you are done
Something I'm curious about: Does Koto ever run into the "We have made too many designs and can't keep all of them in print at the same time" issues that Bandai has been plagued with for the past fifteen years or so? I'm looking into getting Maria Dress Code and a Dress Up Body for her, but I also want the Kuon Maria Cosplay figure. Do I just need to find better online retailers, or is it genuinely out of print and I have to wait for it to get printed again (presumably this will happen soon-ish due to Maria Dress Code coming out later this year)?
>>11745799>>11745642>>11745640>The beast girls are completely naked with tuftswowee
>>11744827>>11745037
>>11745866
>>11745867Is she fully modeled?
>>11745867
woops wanted to post this one>>11745868elaborate on the question
>>11745837I think it's been quite a long time since they reprinted any of the original Frame Arms robot kits, but the girlpla side of things appears to be having regular reissues.
>>11745870Did they model her panties
>>11745837The thing with Koto is they will flat-out just discontinue a kit, and then when they reissue it, it will be a "new" product available for preorder....Unlike Bandai, who'll just leave you hanging on an out-of-stock item that _may_ eventually come back in stock.
>>11745875good question. her skirt is too long to see. perhaps i'll ask them tomorrow.
>>11745887gotta be honest in this case I prefer koto's "fuck off, we're out of stock" approach over bandai's "maaaaaaaybe I'll restock it soon, or maybe never"
Tiasha's new bare legs are erotic...
Got Kagutsuchi together in her base mode a couple of days ago, finally got around to taking some pictures. So what did we get for two years plus of development hell? Thiccness. My god, so much thiccness.
>>11745998My one complaint is the base mode legs still have a giant seam right down the middle, a problem MD already solved. I guess getting dem hips to work took most of their time.
>>11746000With Materia for scale. Kagutsuchi's thighs are nearly a wide as those on the grand scale dress up body, it's crazy. Certainly a long way from the original busou shinki like noodle limbs.
>>11746000 (checked)>giant seam right down the middleStandard Koto practice. Even arcanadea girls have horrible seams. I personally don't mind seams as you can cement and polish them away, but what grinds my gears are the "slit wrists/shins" which could've been easily avoided with little to no structural integrity loss.
>>11745977How much is she going for these days? Last time it was more than double, still sad I missed her.>>11745998>>11746000>>11746003Unf. Her thighs are thicker than Materia's waist.
>>11745998>feet looking like cow hoovesI can't unsee it now.
Will bandai release a proper swinsuit for sestieh body?
>>11746132They should focus on releasing re-issues instead. I've seen the bat girl available, but not even a hint of sestieh or the pink kimono oni girl.
>>11746139Seconding. Sestieh, that second pink Oni girl and bat one completely missed Europe, so much it hurts.
>>11746147I'm from Europe and the bat girl was here somehow.I've legit had a store owner tell me that Bandai understocks retailers because "there isn't much interest for plamo", but the lack of sales is generated by bandai understocking or by niche shit like im@s kits being shelf warmers
>>11746151I honestly don't understand Bandai way of thinking. Idolmaster kits indeed are shelf warmers in Europe, I can see them being constantly in high stock in every single shop I check while actual 30MS kits sells out in minutes. Everyone with functional brain would say "okay, seems like these guys want normal kits and are not interested in 4756th variant of another idol they don't even recognise" but noooo.
>>11746165I like the im@s kits.
>>11746171They're okay. I bought some of the headless ones for kit bashes. But intricate hairdos and printed faces mark the price up to what essentially is the same kit copy pasted 3 times with different skin tones.
>>11746174Not to mention that, as you put it, it's essentially same kit - only face plates and haircut, occasionally skin colour is different but still within existing 3. Dress is the same. Japanese guy can get really excited about his favourite waifu but to average European its "just the same girl, only with different haircut".
>>11746139>even a hint of sestieh or the pink kimono oni girl.they're on aliexpress at least... but overpriced enough that even a grande scale FAG price sounds cheap in comparison
>>11746235Meanwhile Grande Scale girls goes for 90 EUR on HobbyFrontline. One can compare that to 40-50 on Suruga-ya and weep.
>>11746165ironically its the same situation in japan
>>11746139>>11746147>>11746151>bat girlwho's that?
>>11746337Micolulu
>>11746139Sestieh should be coming back in stock pretty soon, at least sometime in May in leafland
>>11745642Are the gaps and uneven joint lines your fault or the manufacturers?
>>11746165The store owner here explained that when they state specific stocks from Bandai, Bandai will send 1-2 of the things they asked for and ship 4-5 random shit that Bandai want them to sell. This process could cycle and make small store overloaded so they have to sell the random shit before having space to put new products. And if they doesn't sell the products they won't have an income to pay for shipping to import more Bandai shit.
>>11745875reporting live from the scene, her panties will be similiar to this kitthis was slightly embarrassing to ask
>>11746535And people say journalism is dead.
Anyone buy shit from amiami? It's annoying that they don't calculate the shipping rates before you checkout, but I guess it's pretty expensive. Just wondering if they're worth it.
>>11746563>wondering if they're worth it.Depends on what you mean by that? Their prices are usually a bit below some other Japanese sources, and, unlike almost all other aftermarket sources (Mandarake, YAJ, etc), their pre-owned section actually has good deals to this day. Their shipping prices, while still shitty since global shipping has long since gone to hell in a handbasket, is a smidge cheaper than, say, HLJ. This is all assuming you're in the US by the by. The tariffs aren't that big of a deal since it's $15 on every $100 (it sucks no matter what, but if you can afford 100 on toys and other non-essentials you can afford 115 easily), so the cheaper base item price + the shipping + tariffs usually results in the product still being either a few dollars cheaper than your local US-bought copy of the item, or roughly equal. The primary difference, of course, being that you can still get the item WAY the fuck sooner than if you ordered it from the US for pre-ordered stuff. Overall it's a great place to buy. If you buy lots of stuff from them then you can make use of their somewhat decent points system, and their slightly cheaper shipping really helps with large orders too. Overall a great place. Their only downside is that if you cancel too much shit they'll ban you. Unless you're a longtime customer that regularly greases their gears of course. Then they typically don't give a shit since they know they'll get more money out of you eventually.
>>11746563They're my to-go place to buy stuff from.What >>11746568 says all checks out. They sometimes have exclusive deals available. They don't calculate shipping automatically, but you can shoot an email to them and they'll do it provided that the items you want are in-stock or you can provide them with "similar" dimensions and weight if it's for some pre-order or something they don't physically have.Just don't go pre-ordering without certainty that you'll buy it as I've heard horror stories on how banhappy they are. Don't make a 2nd account if you had one before as they'll think you're trying to swindle the "max X per order" rules and ban you.Some anons reported that they don't undo bans - so they are permanent.
>>11746563they are expensive if you are only ordering one or two things. But I'd say its worth it if youre bulking a bunch of shit. I wouldn't recommend them for single orders.
>>11746535Thank you sir, I'll probably pick her up. This is the in the trenches journalism we come here for.
>>11746535what a soldier
>>11746535Godspeed, anon.>>11746563>Just wondering if they're worth it.Worth it in what sense? Like the other anon said, importing is usually worth it money- and time-wise.They're the old reliable, but not always the cheapest. Always check buyfinder.moe to compare.Their main draw is the pre-owned section, really, which a lot of other stores don't have. And for model kits, pre-owned = pretty much new, because they wouldn't dare sell kits with opened plastic bags.You can combine monthly orders (though I don't know if there's still a store that doesn't let you do that at this point), and they'll hold onto pre-owned items for you if you combine it with a pre-order coming out the same month. But sadly, no private warehouse system with free storage.
just found out i got some arcanadea stiggiesam i retarded or is there no word about the condition? https://www.suruga-ya.jp/product/other/603213219>>11746627you're welcome. they had dioramas for gochiusa too, at least in their regular store. which is located near chino station. heh...
>>11746535>>11746535>slightly embarrassing to askIsnt that the norm in Japan?Also which kit is that?
>>11746703considering the placement, probably one from the zundamon universe. i have their flyer but i can't check it until tomorrow. their website is kind of ass to navigate
>>11746568>>11746572>>11746579>>11746637Thanks anons, I was only thinking about buying a couple kits but the shipping would probably kill whatever I save anyways, so guess I'll have to figure out a bulk order. It's just a little bit annoying that to get a shipping estimate, I have to reach out to support. It does feel kinda odd that just about every model kit I see is listed as 'pre-owned'
>>11746765>shipping would probably kill whatever I save anywaysSurface parcels are super cheap but super slow. Just list all the kits you'd want by the "shop code" and ask them about shipping estimate to your country and they'll just tell you.Be mindful that pre-owned items could be sold in the meantime.
>>11744395Okay, grande scale dress up body Gourai is way too much fun. Decided to go for a more cute than sexy look this time and change some some parts around. Dress is '1/6 Q'z Off-shoulder Flared One-piece Dress Saxe', purse is from a nendoroid accessory set (meant to be a large purse but in this scale works as a smallish handbag). Hoping they do a shoe accessory set for grande scale like they did for SST, would really put this look over the top if I had some dressy sandals for her.
>>11743219>Need to show a friend cause he wanted to get some.Based CHadfriend, why does he hang out with you?
>>11746165why they should care about eurofags?>>11746321prove it
Sestier-flation is getting nuts. Cheapest listing is like 55 usdafter discount on ali. >>11738891Can't agree more. Almost everything was articulate, and those that weren't was like metalic.
>>11741946Aren't the "new edition" actually just reprints of a 5 years old design?I bought heavy arms... Maybe I'll get to building it in 5 years.
>>11744395Is it just me or is that a very long neck?
>>11747002Yeah, there's three different lengths of neck. I think I used the medium one. The long one is like this crazy giraffe neck for use with doll clothes with high collars. Maybe I should swap in the short one.
>>11746920>spe's assface of the franchise indeed
>>11746988What? I got mine from aliexpress for $27 back then
I was wondering who the Lewden is that >>11735420 referred to in the previous thread, please help.
>>11746703I think is the loli plafia girl with the fish paste cannons
>>11746703took me a bit to find because it's the dx version https://plumwebshop.com/item-detail/1831275>>11746922>prove itjust wait a few hours faggot

>>11746988jesus, makes me happier I was able to get her at a local shop for MSRP, that shit is fucking nuts.
>>11746875Man, why does 1/12 clothing have to be so expensive...
>>11747139>just wait a few hours faggotyou need that much to change your diaper or what?
>>11746988I wish Bandai would fix that shit, older 30MS are almost impossible to find at prices that aren't scalper tier.
>>11747220While I agree with your sentiment, the prices do kind of check out. Shit's legitimately hard to make and takes for fuckin' ever for just a single piece. Assuming it's relatively well-made anyways.
>>11746922For the same reason they care about UStards.
>>11747231had to commute into the city like a sararyman first purisu undastando
>>11747423
>>11747424
>>11747425Why are people stealing those two girls specifically
>>11747425can you make fotos from the newest arcade slops as well when you are in akiba?i have no good source on seeing the newest shit onlinemaybe
Do you ever come home to your plastic girls making out?
>>11747486I only did two semi-lewd photo sessions, sorry.
Explode Volcalion is cool, but also surprisingly tiny.
>>11747486seems like they're doing more than just making out
>>11747428dont think theres any plamo prize game. anything in particular you care about? there are hundreds of different prizes at any given time. lots of madoka figgies rn
Dragon drumstick and thigh.
And with Dawn, for a sense of scale.
>>11747548just the main attractions in gigo or HEYthere are a handful figs mainly on display like this shit last summer
>>11747551To be honest, I would gladly buy the girl alone, without her dragon that most likely pump the price significantly.
>>11747550Yummy.>>11747551Seeing her next to the whole thing should be fun.
>>11747589I'm the opposite - the girl is pretty generic, and I've already got a million of them that pull off the "knight" look a lot better. That dragon is fairly unique, though, and would be right at home on my Zoids shelf.
>>11747626>already got a million of them that pull off the "knight" look a lot better.Kits? Like what?
>>11746003"Anon, you've been a very naughty boy. Get over here and do exactly as Momma K tells you, okay?"
>>11747220Well, besides seconding what >>11747342 said, consider that most of this stuff is too small to machine stich and all the Azone and Nendoroid doll clothes I've bought are better made than anything I have to wear. Fast fashion has sort of set people's expectations for what clothes cost too low. Well made clothes are expensive.
>>11747626I just find her design adorable, don't really care if it's simple. If you know better ones, go ahead and share some names.
>>11747675>If you know better ones, go ahead and share some names.Well, like I said, there's a bunch - it's a fairly common theme. Personally, I really liked my Gallahad, for one.
>>11747857Armored up mode. I'm not home, so I can't post pics of mine atm.
>>11747858>>11747857Do you have the fixed manual? gundamit never sent me the fixed manual.
New despair thread!>>11747998>>11747998>>11747998
>>11748004Real talk, that bottom button always gets worn off like that. Shit is annoying as fuck.
>>11740418Is there a Honda City large enough that you could put the scooter in?
