Are the faceplates on older shinkis(mms1) supposed to be removable? Mine is really tight

>>5265046
If it's from waves 1-3 then no. I don't think changeable expressions came out til a bit later.

>>5265076
I mean, unless you ONLY want to pay bro prices, Koto really upped their production for her. she's still in stock on amiami.

Yes, dip her head into some warm water or heat it up with a hair dryer to loosen it up a bit.

You can however switch them betweer wave sister in case you have both.

>>5265387

I need to get two of one shinki. I works so well.

>>5265472
No, some of them outright cannot have their heads removed from their hair pieces. Benio and Xiphos can't for sure.

>>5265539
Damn shame that I don't have my reaction faces folder ready.

>>5265765
You can still see the elbow and knee joints there. They're just pinned like shinki elbow and knee so they aren't meant to come apart at them.

>>5265775

Judging by the 3D model and the picture of the prototype, it doesn't look like joined elbows are possible with that design. The square armor bits on top would get in the way.

>>5265604
>>5265605

Can someone explain this, they're releasing kits and with the kit you get a copy of the 3d model you can mod and print? Or is the 3d data free for anyone? Or is it only 3d data and there's no physical model at all?

Damn. That sucks then.

Quick question, does anyone know if the Fort Bragg EX set comes with extra faces? Can't decide if I should get that plus another blank or grab Dusk, which I know comes with two faces (or three if you count the visor down as an extra face)

>>5266108
Nope. Go for Dusk, if you have the money.

>>5266110
Alright, thanks. Funny thing is, Bragg plus a blank costs about the same as Dusk with how much blanks go for these days.

My only concern is with Dusk, I'll want to get Zelnogrard Berig and Werkstra Commando to complete the black ops set, but as far as problems go, wanting more shinkis is a good one.

>>5266115
I have Berig, Dusk, Artille Full Barrel, Raptias Air Dominance, and the two Waffles on display on the same shelf. Looks pretty rad.

Super fumina's face needs at least a small bit of work to not look horrifying out of the box. Nothing too difficult though.

Man, I have no idea what Konami was thinking when handling this line.

I want an Eukrantes now because Clara a cute, imagine the bank they could've done if they had made an anime while the line was still alive and they hadn't their factories and molds taken away.

"Wow, these gambling profits are insane. In terms of accounting, we are hamstringing our potential profits with all this other non-gambling-related crap, so let's eject it all."

Shopping on Mandy I noticed two different versions of Strarf mk.2 Lavina. Is it just the box art that's different between the two or does one have different accessories?

>>5267839
Ones full arms and the other one is regular. Full arms have extra pieces and more expensive.

>>5267608
Looks kinda sloppy honestly.

>>5267857

Ah, thanks! Is it worth it to get the Full Arms?

>>5267891
Depends on the price differences I guess.

>>5267870
It's been out for only like a day or two so it's probably a little rushed. It was also done with gundam markers. Pics are from a thread discussing the kit on 2chan's plamo board.

Very cool pic.

>>5267956
Oh I didn't realize. That's not too bad for gundam markers.

>>5267608

The FAGs are a lot cuter and cuteness is important.

>>5267891
Yes. One extra part Straf FA comes with is wrist connectors to attach the big claws onto her arms.

>>5267603
Also careful with the friction tabs that are inside the body. There's some small silicone pieces in it that you could lose very easily.

They're the same size as shinkis.

Arms and leg swaps as well as anything that goes in the ports on the arms and legs are fine for compatibility. You won't be able to swap shins, chests, or plug anything into the back.

>>5269174

Cool, thanks for letting me know.

>>5269035
Well, damn, I was thinking of doing a Jolly Rogers-style Stylet, then this shows up. Probably won't go to the heights this guy got to but at least now I have some inspiration.

>>5269602
>Probably won't go to the heights this guy got to but at least now I have some inspiration.
It's part of the official manual to the kit. They showed off this custom work at wonfes as an example of the sort of things you can do with her as a base for jet mecha musume. I beleive they did the same thing with showing off gourai before she was fully released with tank parts. However they did not put images in the instructions showing how they did the custom work.

>>5271410
Yeah, they've been increasingly pushing customization as a core feature since last WF.

I believe that i'll be backing out of the shinki hobby shortly and selling my collection. Figured i'd let the shinki general get first dibs. Haven't gotten around to taking pictures yet or pricing but here's my list:

Lancamento (complete with box)
Espadia (Complete no box)
Raptias Air Dominance (complete with box, 1 leg spacer broken)
Xiphos (Complete with box)
Prototype Partio (complete with card back)
Prototype Pommock (complete with card back)
MMS2(?) Navy Swimsuit Blank Body
Sky Girl Elise (Complete no card)

Armor Sets - No figure just armor
Waffebunny (Complete no card)
Strarf (might have box somewhere but no hammer)
Arnval Tranche (Complete)

Email me if you're interested and we can work something out.
Lower prices for people that buy more and i have some goodies to pass out also

Yeah, especially with the custom contest they're currently running (open to all countries it seems).

It makes sense as the frame arms line they are based on is all about original designs and customization.

>>5271475

Why you selling your girls?

>>5271692
I'm a little tight on cash and I'm expecting to spend a decent chunk of change this holiday season. I also need to buy a new car unfortunately.

I feel as if I don't give them the attention they deserve and there are much better suited people here that will have much more fun with them

>>5271511
Would be willing to ship to Canada with increased shipping of course but I usually tend to set one price and forget about it. If you're out of country email me and we can work it out

>>5271475
I miiiiiiiiight be interested in Xiphos if you're letting her go for some insultingly low price. Let me know when you decide on prices. It'd be nice if my Proxima had a real knight to ride her.

>>5271475

How have you found Elise? I am thinking of picking up some of the Sky Girls. Do they blend in with the rest of your girls? Are they decent in terms of accessories?

>>5271475
>Raptias Air Dominance
pls no. There's so many other things I want to buy

>>5271894
Well Elise only came with her teddy bear and another hair part + hands and spacers. Other than that they're quite nice.

They're a little taller than regular shinki girls but not quite as tall as the proto pommock/partio I think. I like her nice long legs and the feet parts on them are kinda neat.

She also looks pretty good with arnval tranches armor set

>>5271875

Haven't you suffered enough as a Shinki fan?

>>5272310
I mean, Koto's practically printing money with the FAGs and Shinki's are very similar, so I don't see why they wouldn't make the repro kits.

>>5272310
I've been a fan since I first saw Ianeira and the BLADE shinki.
I bought during the Great Clearance, knowing it was a sign of Konami's run coming to an end.
I saw the end of Battle Rondo and Diorama Studio.
I saw the promise and botched execution of the anime and attached merchandising.
I have suffered out the horrible drought in relative silence.

There will be new Shinki, anon. Have faith.

To be a shinki fan you must enjoy suffering.

Fuck no. Get a Partio or a Pomock.

>>5272497
If you're going to be like that then he should get Arnval MK2 or something, thing is the guy said he's fucked by the exchange rate. Benio is not bad for a starter shinki, i would recommend Ianeira or Eukrante over Benio but they arent as cheap.

>>5272520

You can get a proto Partio, Pomock or Mao Chao for about 3000-3500Y. I'd say they are just nicer to photograph and more fun to pose than something bland without their armor like Benio. Much better choice of first Shinki IMO.

Hey shinky peeps, anyone know how these scale with Shinkis and such?

theyre cheap as hell, and im kinda tempted to stock up,, but lord knows what size they are.

>>5272609
Xiphos and artille?

>>5272653
woops totally forgot about xiphos.

xiphos is listen on UK amazon for what equates to $65 brand new so i'll say $40

raptias has been purchased.

>>5272649
Package size is 13cm X 7.5cm, and it looks like the package is tight enough that those are pretty much the chair measurements, too. That's about half the shinki's height in width. Compared to my folding chair, which is about 18 inches wide, which is about a quarter of a 6 ft person's height in width. So I'm pretty sure it's 1/6 scale, but I don't have them to say for sure.

1/12 scale stuff is what you want for shinkis, just for the record.

>>5272649
More expensive, but here's something. Comes with four 1/12 folding chairs (that don't fold, unfortunately) and two desks.

Hasegawa apparently makes a ton of 1/12 furniture kits. I might grab some of their school desks.

Eh personal preference I guess. I almost never pose or photograph my girls in their armor so Partio's lack of gear really didn't bother me. She is more photogenic and more expressive than Benio and that's what I value over armor that will (for me) sit in the box 90% of the time.

Ok, I just wanna make sure before I drop cash: Pure Neemo M/S clothes, those are roughly 1/12 or around Shinki size, right? I'm actually going to use them for a Polynian Shamrock, but it's around the same size and I figured you guys would know better, being an established fanbase (whereas the Polynian stuff is fairly new/obscure).

Don't buy Puer. Picco Neemo is the one you want. Not sure how they'll fit Shamrock but even Picco Neemo are slightly too big for shinkis so it should be okay.

For comparison, here are my girls all wearing Picco Neemo stuff.

>>5274325
>>5274325okey ive been meaning to ask this for a while - is the shrine an actual kit, or something you made yourself?

>>5274387

Made myself with old legos I had lying around. Grabbed every red brick I had and threw it together.

And yes, that's a bunch of shinki cranks stuck together as the god in the shrine. The cranks from my very first shinki, actually ... I'm a bit sentimental sometimes.

>>5274325

I see your Tigris is as stylish as ever.

>>5273883
go with stuff without shoulders. The polynian have weird high shoulders you dont notice till you try to dress them.
So strapped dresses and off the shoulder jumpers are the only thing that works for them in the picco neemo line.

I was the one who "scanned" them via shitty digital camera photos, if that's what you meant. I was posting the link for if anyone wanted a physical book. For 600 yen, it'd help fill in gaps in that 5k yen shipping sweet spot pretty well.

For any more savvy people, both Corseca and Flamberge kits are up on Jungle right now.

They're listing stuff from their other warehouse all month, so there's a ton of shinki stuff just added. Tempted to grab a second Werkstra at those prices, myself.

Word of warning, the ones on Jungle aren't the ones pictured >>5275557.

The kits from that guy are all molded in color. Amber works kits are in black and white resin.

I have both her and valona but I'm focusing on finishing my gourai right now.

Does anyone know where i can find a good, Shink-sized purse?

ive been perusing the toy aisles and cant seem to find one thats appropriate

Gotta be size appropriate, gotta be able to put stuff in it, and it shouldnt have super gaudy branding on it.

>>5277498
you could make one with paper

>>5277502
>>5277498
Yeah, coloured paper's your best bet here. Get a Pinterest account from bugmenot - Pinterest is the easiest place to find doll-related tutorials and patterns at.

If you wanna buy, Etsy has a huge selection of 1:12 dollhouse stuff, including more bags than you can possibly need.

>>5275588

Is there a reason why they use artists' acrylics instead of model paints?

I usually don't trust their opinions on matters of modelling.

Shinki general, I need your help. I really like the design of Arnval but I don't particularly like her in her base white and blonde variety. I cannot into moon runes so how do I tell which Arnvals on Mandarake (most of which are in brown cardboxes with outlines images on them) are the black/red or black/lilac repaints?

I think this is the red/black but I'm not sure:

http://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1012106536&ref=list

>>5278082
That's Arnval Tranche which is Red and Black.

>>5278082
I'm pretty sure the cardboard boxed ones are the dengekiya repaint. Compare to this:

http://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1012106510&ref=1012106536

Okay, so I don't normally read OPs but what is this about Plastica possibly making blank bodies? What kind of details are there? Who are they? Are there images? Has there been talk of colors and prices? I'd love some blanks for my Waffes.

>>5278082

Brown boxes are the repaints

File: img520e30bazik2zj.jpg (35KB, 512x384px) Image search: [Google]

35KB, 512x384px

>>5278118

But aren't black/red AND black/lilac both repaints?

Basically, the Arnval I want is pic related. What does the box look like for her or failing that what moon runes do I need to search?

>>5278112

Or if that isn't a likely occurance in the near future, what bodies fit the Waffes? MM1, MM3 or both (I'm assuming Smalls don't)?

>>5278128
Won't be for a while, but I don't have all the info. Only MMS1 fit the Waffesisters, 3 doesn't have the right washers for all their pouches or the right chest.

I recommend Strarf or Howling. Though black blanks are best and they're pretty cheap comparatively.

>>5278140

Was actually looking at a black blank. Thanks for the info, I'll just buy a blank for now and then if these new blanks materialise I can finally try my hand at custom paint jobs and gunpla transfers (no way I'm trying that shit on an original body).

>>5278124
here's a link to her on Mandarake
http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/item_s-1405702.html

>>5278189

Wait, she's not one of the two different brown box Arnvals? So one is the red/black? The heck is the other one?

Thanks for the link anon. You're good people.

The one not in the brown box is Arnval Tempesta. I suggest getting her because she is adorable

Okay /mms/ let's get real. Busou Shinki best girl and worst girl?

>>5278199
both arnvals in brown boxes are black/red. one is the original release's repaint, and the other is the repaint of the "updated rerelease", arnval tranche2. the names -are- written on the boxes in english, it's not exactly hard to tell them apart without reading japanese.

and the black/purple one you want is the repaint of arnval Mk2, which is a different design altogether. there's two instances of her, as well; the original instance, and the "full arms package" version which has more bits. "full arms package" is written on the box in english so it's also not hard to recognise.

>>5278816

Thank you very much for explaining. Sorry if it seems like I'm being intentionally stupid, sadly I can't pretend I was.

I love the idea of having a pair of twins (i.e. two the same) but don't know who to go with. Everyone seems to go for Fubuki and Strarf. Anyone have suggestions of others that would work well like this?

>>5278835
Arnval MK.2 and Arnval MK.2 Tempest??

>>5278835
I've a pair of Ianeiras but the only adventure they ever had together was grope eachother for a month or so before i remembered to put them back in their own stands.

>>5278835
Recolours and ver 2s have created a lot of sister-combinations, so just pick the design you fancy?

>>5278835
Seconding >>5278852, just get your favorite girl and a repaint of her.

>>5278991

You misunderstand. I want twins, i.e. two the exact same like in the pic I posted. Just not sure which ones work well in pairs. For example I've seen pics of multiple Tsugaru and it doesn't work.

I think it depends more on how you play with them/photograph them than what they are.

Anyways, for anyone working on their Frame Arms Girls, a tip.

Get some fabric tape.

Also, I was hoping to order some sprues from Kotobukiya and see if I can upgrade Gourai with Stylet's improvements, but I'm not seeing a way to get Stylet's hips compatible with Gourai's without significant modification. The armor for them don't match up slots/pegs and you'd need to replace the entire lower torso.

Quickest improvement would be to get another A sprue and replace Gourai's thigh polycaps with the ABS joints in there.

>>5279031
Damn! Good tip mate

The materia girls have the new hips right?

>>5279072
They have different hips from both stylet and gourai outright.

>>5278835
I always enjoyed having a prototype Partio and the smaller mms3 Partio. I basically ended up getting an older sister for my first shinki.

the answer is always murmeltier

>>5279523

Oh if only I could find AND afford two Murms then yes the answer would be clear. Never even see them on Mandy anymore though.

Do all shinkis come with the same three faces (standard, mouth opened, eyes closed)?
Are there ones with less/more?

>>5279724
Sadly, yes. In fact, three faces is the exception. Two is standard, and a couple have only one...this is the reason most people get the beachwear versions of Howling and Mao-Chao if hey already have the originals.

>>5279031
>glued-on fabric tape

You did not think this through, my kin, to be perfectly honest.

Whatever you say. Even if every person posting in this thread from now until it hits the post limit posts a picture, it won't hit its imae limit.

Say what you want about the actual subject matter but I don't think many will deny that Planelegs' stuff is better composed, shot and edited than 95% of the shots you see on /toy/. I can do without another grainy, out of focus and poorly lit picture of someone's shinki stood on their dust and cheeto encrusted desk.

She only has one 'unarmored' leg and it has no articulation, those are her 'primary' legs already.

My mistake. I was under the impression she had a pair of unarmoured legs.

Aren't the new shinkis model kits?

The new shinki? I dunno yet, the Frame Armor GIRLS series are model kits, but they're very much like Shinki despite some size/scale differences. From what I've seen Gourai's head and neck CAN be transplanted onto a MMS-1 Shinki blank body.

There's the new Materia "blank" Frame Armor girls coming soon, and Stylet that I have my eye on (pic related).

>>5280794
The stylet ship has sailed. If you haven't gotten one by now then expect to pay aftermarket mark up.

Yes, the new shinki kits coming from Kotobukiya are model kits.

No, they're not frame arms girls, busou shinki is getting a reboot by kotobukiya.

I'd suggest checking Kotobukiya US.

Some work on Gourai. Just top coat and some peach tamiya weathering powder goes a long way for skin tones..

Unfortunately the fabric tape I got was a bit too thin. I'd like a roll that's like 2-3 times the width, but I can't find any. For reference this was a 1.5cm roll. It looks a bit rough cause I had to fill in some gaps with smaller pieces.

You need to put some flat clears down first unless you're painting it, either mr super clear, mr top coat, or what have you. Once that's dry, apply the powder with the sponge stick that's usually included. I used tamiya weathering master set H's peach.

You're going to want to seal it after with another coat of clear after.
