So many itsy-bitsy parts that my finger still aches
EDIT: Strange, there appears to be scratches everywhere in that pic, pretty sure I covered most, if not, all of them. Must be some sucky lighting or dust in the lens
RE: Armored Core figures/model kits - Fox - 02-22-2012
That's pretty good work there, BD. Don't worry about the scratches or somewhat irregular-colored plastic. It's always been part of Kotobukiya's casting process.
RE: Armored Core figures/model kits - Serene - 02-22-2012
Well, he could make it more consistent by really light sanding the plastic to get rid of the gloss.
Just kidding.
Looks good to me.

Ikaw lang ang may tiyagang gawin yun sa isang buong kit, pare.

I might paint them some other time.
Next stop CR-C06U5 Fascinator.

I spy with my naked eye some new weapon sets for the AC4-fA NEXT series, including a CANOPUS, the folding chaingun and what looks like an OIGAMI.
CZ's gonna mechgasm from seeing that.

Try checking the various GreatToys branches around the city. They occasionally get some of those in stock. Beware though, what they often have are the reissued kits and those are usually overpriced compared to the first wave.

Thanks, I'll be checking those.
The one in Greenhills didn't have it, so that's one down already. Off-topic a bit: does anyone know how long SAL delivers here?

Someone go hijack BD when he goes to visit these stores.

Give SAL at least 2-3 weeks. But it can take up to a month too.

I always knew you wanted me for dead NiX, that explains why there are falling signboards wherever I go ever since last week

Be wary of guys with long or shaggy hair suddenly talking to you when you visit any of the GT branches. It could be one of us... with rope and chloroform-soaked hankies.
