Top 8...!!!
  Anyway,for my first post on v10,I should start big (accidentally posted this on v9 before realising v10 was out)...I know there are a lot of Griffon "fans" here,so thoughts on this 1/2.5 scale giant...? Just curious because they're also releasing Asuna in this so-called Super Figure line... |

QUOTE(Flame Haze @ Oct 19 2013, 03:03 PM) I would pay up to 30k yen for 1/7 Olivia CASTOFFABLE I can imagine a castoffable Olivia of the same design being a downright pain in the ass to actually get nude...I'd probably get heart attack trying to strip her off without snapping anything...Not to mention I hate it when I try to put the clothes back on,and they don't quite fit    ...Maybe they can include a separate body where you just pop the head and limbs on,and voila...  |

 Curse them GKs and all who can do a proper paintjob... That said,Altlene and Alitines by Grizzly Panda got picked for the PVC treatment,so maybe there's hope still...? Speaking of which,those two are due out Jan/Feb and still no painted promos...Certainly not helping with the trust issues, quesQ... |

QUOTE(jvs5805 @ Oct 21 2013, 07:49 AM) hehe, i do a little bit of gk myself. Mainly due to the fact that most of them dont receive the pvc treatment ever, and that is motivation enough for me to start learning and building my own kits. why not try it? many sifus here I really want to hate you right now,but I kinda envy you too... Its not like I didn't consider getting into GKs...I think there are more GKs I fancy than PVCs...But the really good ones cost as much/more than high-end PVCs...Not to mention I have a short attention span...  It would be sad to see a kit I like half finished/botched up...So I guess I'll stick to pvc for now and just rage about awesome GKs...QUOTE(kevinlowl @ Oct 21 2013, 08:20 AM) *raises hand* You're cool like that,aren't you... I don't follow trends and such.   This post has been edited by killerjeya: Oct 21 2013, 08:30 AM |

QUOTE(zito9 @ Oct 21 2013, 05:34 PM) me think Char (and Nida) is nice too, but pricey Yup,thats the one...Bought during the earlier stages of my poisoning...Didn't even realise there were more in the Shuraki series...  so i went for Mishiro. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Rize? You mean this: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « mm, me no like her. Char is not too pricey I think,around 3-4k yen...Not sure about Nida...Damn, suddenly feel like hunting down a Char... |

QUOTE(jvs5805 @ Oct 23 2013, 02:40 PM) i might be the only guy here who doesnt like that olivia at all YOU DON'T LIKE OLIVIA...???  Just curious,but is it something specific about it that you don't like (the color of the wings which I personally think is awesome,maybe? xD) or she just doesn't fit your taste...? |

QUOTE(jvs5805 @ Oct 23 2013, 02:53 PM) she looks good but not my taste, i like pvc to have a fuller figure I see...She probably would have had a fuller figure, but Koto used up the pvc meant for the boobs on the wings...  that dual tone wing design is the first ive ever seen to really stand out, her hair also |

QUOTE(jvs5805 @ Oct 23 2013, 03:03 PM) i blame the sculptor  illustration looks good with the all the right curves mang. the other cerberus coming also got thinned down    Sculptor may have toned it down a size or two in certain areas, but I love the way he did the face...Original looks a bit moody,but the pvc has a more mischievous look to it... |

QUOTE(zito9 @ Oct 23 2013, 03:19 PM) yeah , l personally like the PVC more than illustration. that said, the illustration looks fab too. QUOTE(jvs5805 @ Oct 23 2013, 03:23 PM) when they announced her figure based of this illustration, i really did now know what to expect because the illustration had all those colors on it Not often that illustration-based pvc turn out better than the source...Surprised to find out that I actually own something sculpted by this dude... now that you mentioned it though, the face does look better on the sculpt than the drawing That said, the same dude sculpted the 1/6 Sakuya with the weird face... |

QUOTE(EXkurogane @ Oct 23 2013, 04:17 PM) Same dude huh. He does good jobs, just that, Sakuya wasnt unique to me in anyway, maybe except the sword - the amount of detail is the same as most 1/8 figures. She's just a regular figure blown up in size, which explains the rather reasonable 12k yen RRP despite her size. Probably explains the drastic drop in price after release,too...But yeah,he does good jobs...The Rouna is one of my faves...Also kinda proves the sculptor isn't against full-bodied figures...

QUOTE(jayjay11 @ Oct 23 2013, 04:50 PM) I have also Sakuya... i just keep her aside.. not interested to open it... I second that... Anyway your photo of Sakuya does improves and make her look beautiful.. the power of the photographer QUOTE(jayjay11 @ Oct 23 2013, 04:51 PM) Maybe is a old Sakuya... Aside from toothless mouth,Granny Sakuya looks fine...No wrinkles,no sagging at certain areas... |

QUOTE(shephard86 @ Oct 23 2013, 05:55 PM) A bit off topic but there's a hot topic now on the news about a cosplayer Rape and killed a 15 years old girl. Will it affect what other people think about collectors like us? In my opinion, the fact that he is a cosplayer should not matter...Rape is rape...What the rapist does for a living or what his hobbies are does not make the crime any more or less serious...Those who think otherwise are just close-minded fools...A real shame what happened to the girl...I wonder if she was a cosplayer too,since she was helping him make costumes... |
