QUOTE(soft as hours @ Jul 16 2007, 07:27 PM) I got my Revoltech Dark Saber recently too, but I'm back in my family home which is like 300+km away from KL XD Looking forward to valho's pics. Sneak preview of the last figure I shot, the Metamo Haruhi:  Still too lazy to sort out the entire batch of pics ^^;; (I really love the Yuki in that Figumate series, but it's not worth buying the entire set for unfortunately.) nice btw i will back to hometown to start proper pic taking

QUOTE(dishwasher @ Jul 17 2007, 01:24 AM) If you check e2046, they offer prepainting services for some of their kits, but at a whooping cost. I checked out one figure and it was USD54.54 unasembled, and USD140 completed. Not cheap! Resin kits require alot of work (cleaning flash, sanding, puttying, pinning... list goes on) but USD90 for commision? Wah... too bad they dun have for this two i think. USD90 commission is quite understandable due to the time spend on it, and it's not easy to build either. I would prefer to find someone locally to do it though, it's easier and I don't have to worry about damage during shipping. the only one I have found so far is brandonartshop, just need to find out how to get to his place haha

Lol was scouting thru and added that saber into my wishlist, maybe coz i saw the price was around 140, seems cheap compared to others which exceeds 200 and somehow looks quite nice for me. unfortunately got 2 incoming SIC, so low on cash at the moment, din know pvcs were like sic, single production run stuff Btw the saber e-jump bought, he posted a pic 1-2 pages back, how much is that?
