QUOTE(TheEvilMan @ Apr 21 2015, 12:16 PM) why is ver.Ka unicorn not a good buy? Because of the lack of articulation on the leg? 1. flawed back calf armor design - restricting knee bending angleI was convinced and bought the OVA but ver.Ka decals just looks so much cooler 2. flawed back waist armor design - restricting torso rotation 3. no option to swap fixed open v fin - transforming v fin that couldnt close properly + extremely fragile 4. decals - only clear sticker n dry transfer by the time u finish with the decals u'll wish ur finger were chop off by a rusted table saw instead, at least it'll hurt much less. |

I never had alignment or size problem, only spelling problem since it's China LOL eg. 'caution' spelled as 'cotion' yes, stickers are the most obvious decal, even after coating to reduce the obviousness you need to polish the coating, but still can see the lines separating sticker and body the most 'blend in' decal is dry transfer, looks almost like painted on only downside is the difficulty |
