I couldn't find a thread which would be appropriate to ask this question so i figured i'd make a new thread.
So i ordered 2 figures from HLJ, but i noticed they had something else i wanted on sale for really cheap. I already paid premium shipping and i was wondering if there was any way i could get them to bundle this new purchase with that one(i didn't get private warehouse, i chose ship when available). I haven't paid for it yet, the order is still processing. I might just cancel once they ask me to pay and make a new account to order them all together but i'd prefer not to have to do some shit like that.
If you already paid for the order's shipping, they can't do anything iirc. Same goes for any other store.

What would be the practical application of combining multiple weapons of war into one larger weapon of war?
it looks cool
>>6076472
As a weapon of terror? Although if you're just strapping robots together to make a bigger one, all you've done is make a giant, slow moving target. Maybe as a heavy assault/breakthrough/siege weapon, but you'd need to mount a ridiculous amount of armour that will slow it even more so it won't just get taken out by air.
Easier supply logistics I guess.
Power to auxiliary functions of the smaller weapons can now be diverted to other things like thrusters or lasers or giant beam swords.

What's everyone's experience with Sideshow Collectibles and/or Threezero sixth scale figures? I've gotten Hot Toys and they've been amazing, but I was looking at some reviews and people tend to shit on them like the Jawas they released.
>>6074874
Newer sideshow 1/6th is Hot Toys quality, or very very nearly so.
I can also recommend Threezero. I have a lot from all three companies and I would say that if you see something you want and can afford, barring any outstanding negative reviews, get it.
>>6074887
Cool. Sideshow and Threezero have some cool horror figures coming next year so it's good to know that they're reliable in terms of quality.
Maybe it's like NECA where some figures are great while others aren't. I dunno.
>>6074887
The only place they still fall short from hot toys in some cases is paint apps, but particularly on things like weathering.
Sideshow c-3po was a horrid example of this. The prototype weathering vs the release versions is one of the worst quality drops I've seen in a figure.

Probably gunna swap the body for a regular red if that is how bright that one is.
Still, pretty surprised at the articulation with armor on by it almost not even limiting it.
Still excited
Devoted Legion awooo!
>>6075143
Agree, didn't realize it was on a ninja sculpt
>>6074109
Would be nice if they had larger shoulder pads like samurai warrior mainly had. Looks pretty nice but you can tell its just abit of samurai armour slapped onto a generic ninja

WTF I fucked up the title
Now I'm worried someone else will make the general and everyone goes there instead.
Dat ass.
For those unfamiliar, "Plamo" is a shortened form of "plastic model." If it's made of plastic, someone can probably help you here.

***Non-Gundam Group Build***
So this is pretty straightforward, build something that isn't Gundam. I literally do not care what it is, if it's not Gundam it counts (and just to get this out of the way, Bandai is fine). I do not require full paint jobs this time either, as I know the vast majority of people here build Bandai and that's it.
This is also not a prize build, but a regular group build.

Due Date: March 1st, 2017.
I'm about to start my first model kit. (MG RX78 3.0). Are my supplies enough, or am I missing anything? I'm planning to use glue to erase seam lines and glue non-moving parts. Should I only use glue after completely assembling/panel lining the figure? Also, is my glue appropriate?
>>6072140
It looks like you should have all the tools you need. I couldnt think of anything you could pick up, also ive never done seam line removal but the the last few videos i watched the people in the videos did use that Tamiya Cement

Where to buy second hand Shinkis:

>Mandarake, Rakuten - search 武装神姫 and don't trust listing images.
>Yahoo Japan Auctions, Suruga-ya - you'll need a proxy if you’re not in Japan.
>Taobao - some shops ship international now, so you might not need a proxy.
>Amiami, Jungle-scs - occasionally get some preowned.

1/12 clothes like Picco Neemo fit these, but they tend to be loose or baggy.

Thanks to all the discussion about Picco Neemo clothes last thread, I realized I could buy this and use the bottoms at least. If the top doesn't look good like most of the other kimono-ey things I've ordered in 1/12, I can make a bandage wrap a la Disgaea's samurai.
Is toy cosplay a thing?

This breaks my heart every time I see it. Gabby's neck cracked like a banana peel recently so I got another one to repair her.
I'm sorry, anon, that I didn't leave it for you. :(
Anyone remember these dudes? I started getting into them on the tail end of the fad, so I only have a couple (not sure where they are right now).
>>6071101
In terms of Quality+Potential:Cut Tragically Short, I don't think anything beats Xevoz.
>>6071101
I am lucky enough to own all of the released figures. Probably luckier that I only paid original retail or less for them too.
Xevoz are lame wannabes of the superior original.
