Busou Shinki & Fam: Arnval?

So Baselard is starting to ship out? Nice, I preordered her so I look forward to her arrival.

>>5917949
>the Shinki kits are kind of in limbo with no official release dates...

Bruh, it's time to face the music. It's never a good thing when there's this much silence. They're probably having isues with Konami holding the licenses and only wanting to make pochinko.

>>5917993
I gave up the ghost on the shinki line about three years ago, i was never hype about this whole kit deal, it wasnt real, sturdy shinkis anyway.

>>5917985
I got my invoice for her from HLJ sometime yesterday.

>>5918052
Meanwhile, three more months for mine. Whoo.

Is Stylet any good? My LCS has a bunch for $15/each, and I just need a kit to build.

>>5918082
Frame Arms Girl or just Frame Arms?

If latter, you might have better luck asking on the gunpla thread.

>>5918082

She needs the most detail work out of all the FAGs, assuming that's the stylet you mean.

All the White markings and the black on her shoulder wings will need to be painted on, more or less.

>>5918084
FAG.
>>5918085
Yeah, based on my memory and referencing My Figure Collection, it's a mostly blue Stylet kit. I'm no pro and I've never painted a kit, but for $15 it looked like a good way to pass a few evenings.

>>5918085
>She needs the most detail work out of all the FAGs
I wish I'd been told that BEFORE I got mine. Guess I'll have to call it a learning experience and pray I don't fuck up too badly.

>>5917993

>been getting most of the FAG releases, and machineca body based Megami Device
>even have a set of mini-Maochao Desktop Army
>actual Shinki kits to give your money to still nowhere

At this point, I'm not sure if I'd hope for a Mk-2 Arnval/Strarf kit down the line.

>>5917985
>my baselard won't ship until all my September pre-orders are out
fug, then again she'll be sitting unbuilt for a while regardless so the waits don't matter much

>>5918267
All of the waits matter!
The wait for concept art!
The wait for preorders to open!
The wait for the actual release date!
Especially the wait for your order to arrive!
The wait to put things together!
They're all an important part of the plamo experience! Someone please end me, this waiting is misery.

>>5918093
For 15 bucks, it's a steal.

>>5918082
Would you be willing to onsell them here? Im new to this but if I can get a super cheap one then I'll dive right in.

Went to a local convention to check some figure and model kit stalls.

This isn't what I expected to see.

>>5918330
Nice. The drills she comes with are really cool. I want that motor set for them.

>>5918386

what drills?

are they the same as the heavy weapon unit that is sold separately?

I thought this was just another color scheme

>>5918391

She comes with this drill instead of the freestyle bazooka

Both drill and bazooka are also sold separately.

Aside from having a spare gourai, purple eyes are alluring.

>>5918330
I want one but the ebay prices are but much.

>>5918401

hiq parts sells lots of eyes. and I liked the bazooka that the gourai originally came with because it appears to mount to her shoulder.

I also have the drill for reasons. I think it looks cool to replace an arm on a frame arms with one of those.

>>5918401
I'm still angry the drill set came with no rotor.

>>5918412

I'll take note of that when koto starts selling face plates separately or learn resin recasts.

>>5918420

I think it was mentioned last thread you can order runners from within japan and just get them forwarded

>>5918412
This is great. Why does HLJ have no favorites feature though? I'll never remember that.

>>5918427
Oh, solved my own problem. Amiami also carries these and they DO have favorites. Perfect.

>>5918448

bookmarks?

>>5918408
i thoght amiami still sell this.

>>5918526
Not my favorite thing ever. They tend to add clutter while searching and having them on a list somewhere means I'm actually more likely to be reminded that I found a way to do that thing I wanted to do than a simple star next to a page name. Normally I prefer to use them for home pages and leave it at that.

Baselard seems like she needs the least paint of the currently released kits imo.

>>5918828
Aside the unecessary horrible thickness, i say the equipment actually does look neat.

>>5919116
He trying to make her look like those experimental bio weapons that will be released from the tube when the time has come

>>5919456

Oh yeah? What's your favorite part? The solid inch of extra abdominal length or the ugly shoulder-broadening shoulder joints that not only look entirely out of place but also do nothing to enhance articulation? Maybe the casserole of nonsense that used to be a pelvis, or the entire extra torso width of tit that was hastily tacked on with globs of sculpey instead of incorporated with the original chestpiece?

I mean, it wouldn't possibly be the fact that the lower thighs are a solid centimeter wider at the point of connection than the upper thighs. Or the extra set of legs that look like someone put football shin guards on some cheap peg legs.

Or maybe you're just a fan of really, really thick paint?

>>5919482
You seem upset. It's just someone's custom. Who cares? There are plenty worse abominations. You typed out a solid paragraph that can be summed up with "I think that looks dumb".

My first two Baselards shipped. Got one more from AmiAmi. Kind of considering getting a couple more not I've seen her, she's super cute. I love her design.

>>5919482
Im only referring to the custom like that additional joint on her feet.

._. You mad though?

>>5919482
And especially the decals on her legs with the screw bits and the platings to the side of the leg. The knee joints in depth have that mechanical feel too. Those are actually good looking.

Was Architect supposed to come with springs for her drivers? If so, how were they packaged; were they loose? I couldn't find them anywhere in my parts when I was building and there weren't any springs in the parts list in the beginning of the manual. I also didn't get any hands for her, searched all over my workplace and in the garbage where I tossed the emptied baggies.

I'm guessing the Gunpla thread's the best place or paint questions, right?

How well will UV-cured plastic adhesive work for FAG assembly?

>>5920179
Yeap, but they have a document guide link in their thread too.

>>5919033
Liefield Shinki?

>>5920211
You don't need it. What you'd want, if you're going to use any adhesives, is plastic cement in order to weld joins as per the gunpla guide linked in the OP. Go read it.

>>5920250
Is glue a necessity? Been thinking about buying a few FAGs.

>>5920279
I think my post should have implied you don't need adhesives. It's only necessary for seam welds which I don't think you'd be able to pull off because you don't seem to have even the mental capacity to do your own research. Even when the link to everything you need is in the OP.

>>5920279
I don't understand. The information in the OP of so many general threads is golden, why does no one ever take the time to read them or try to comprehend what they read? I'm legitimately baffled.

This is actually a thing, I just found out, plus DIY fans/extractors mounted on top.

Not him, but I've both. If his "stubby" blade is like mine I can tell you its a long way better and sharper than x-act.

My usual blades are these long point excel #11 blades. They're "alright", but they really suck for scoring and cutting plaplates/chopping. Passable for shaving/lapping down surfaces and nubs.

Not sure if the curved scalpel blade is gonna be a quality-of-life improvement, because I've snapped a lot of #11 blade tips and gotten them worn out very quickly.

Those are pretty awesome for hard to reach spots, but my main complaint is them being so long they don't have a great leverage. While these other blades seems to have the perfect inclination and leverage along with sharpness. Sorry, not sure if I can explain my point any better.

Saddly enough my fav blades seems really hard to come by around here, and when I do find, they usualy are pricey.

For cutting plasticard (plaplate) your best bet would be a rotaryblade.

>>5921074
I get these blades at around $7 for a pack of 30 on ebay.

>>5921074
>for hard to reach spots

When this happens the blade tip usually snaps, so it doesn't really work out for me.

>>5921101
that's a good deal. Can I get a lead to the seller?

>>5921074
Is the Excel equivalent, the #6 stencil edge blade, the #24 deburring blade or the #16 stencil blade on their site?

>>5921110
#16 is the closest call, but it is slightly smaller. #6 is smaller while #24 bigger.

>So, this thread is basically "GunPla General with tits" now?

No, it isn't. Not even close. For one, /gpg/ doesn't have some douchebag posting godawful homemade comic strips. Plus, nobody over there dresses their plamo in tiny sweaters and shamelessly poses them in public.

>>5921453
I could see the merits of both, but after starting collecting them a long while back, I ended up with over 50.

One other material I was hoping to use for shinki and FAG customization include a kind of modeling clay that can be baked to solidify it. It'd be really cool to be able to craft customs of whatever I need.

>>5921564
God hand nippers are godly, but you have to be careful with them as they are delicate.

>>5921739
Sculpey is good for sculpting, as its name might imply, but for smaller things like kits, epoxy putty might be better.

Comic-anon, I would LOVE to see how a Benio would act in your comic (I own one myself).

It's not necessary, but helps in a couple of spots (like Materia's toes and to glue to the ball a little further up in the joint torso to prevent her from separating)

But really, that gunpla guide helped so much when building mine. Don't be a pussy and read it, because it answers 99% of questions people ask. It even shows what each symbol means in the instructions you will see for the kit. You don't have to know moon runes to do it.

Sadly, it's a wonderfes resin thing another anon was kind enough to get me. You might be able to find copies of it on taobao after event season, but it doesn't come with its own joints. (I used the joints from a revoltech Mr Incredible)

Honestly I don't think Benio would act all that differently than Artoria does, which is one of the reasons I haven't picked one up. Best I can guess, she'd be a cross between Artoria and Lavi.

Don't be silly, friend! You're always being judged.

Anyone else in the US that hasn't heard back from Muscuto about their kits being shipped? I ordered one of each before the deadline and he told me payment okay, but I haven't heard from him since. I know Chuseok was last week and that slows things down, but it makes me nervous that people are already getting theirs.

>>5921982
still havent got shipping notification on mine either.

>>5921994

>>5921982

Delicate how? I haven't used mine yet.

>>5922218
Avoid using it on hard plastic like clear parts. The blades are EXTREMELY delicate. Even a 15cm drop could break it.

>>5922258
I've cut clear plastic and resin with my godhands and they havent broken.

>>5921453
I could never see myself having more than 10. There is a large power gap between my favorite designs and the rest of them.

>>5921453

I have like 20 or 30. I've been considering selling some just because it seems like I have so many I dont really do anything with any of them.

>>5922258
Not quite so delicate they'll shatter when you try to use them, but a drop or jamming it into something would do it.

>>5922286
I guess it kinda depends on the plastic.
I broke 2 of them, one was when I was making Bandai's vf-25. I cut a clear green piece out and it took out part of the blade, and when I cut the canopy part, the tip broke off.
Second one broke from a drop.
I ordered a 3rd one but now I'm gonna be more careful not to cut hard stuff or drop it.

>>5921841

he's probably sending soon. just got an email from him to reconfirm my order - I added on an additional ice cracker. I think we'll have our next shipments arrive next week.

No, as far as I know it was new, the whole box was wrapped in plastic. I think it was from a reissue wave because I missed the initial preorders by HLJ put it back up for preorder with a July release.

Best way to do it would be to model it yourself then 3d print, then fill the gaps with epoxy putty. Not sure how you'd do decals.
Does FAG have an anime?

>>5923288

Holy shit a new face plate doesnt need a three thousand dollar machine. Just use kneadable mold maker and/or resin

>>5923296
You mean a three hundred dollar and some sandpaper.

>>5923288
FAG has nothing. It's mechamusume versions of Frame Arms, which itself only has very sparse material in the form of a short manga and some promotional shorts. And those were just made to push the pre-existing original design models.

>>5921905
This is relevant to my interests, any pictures of said new Materia?

>>5923361
Frankly, there is nowhere I can get the required materials, at least in small enough quantities, and the apartment isn't quite compatible with being a workspace for that. Not the matter of time, really.

Anyway, there seem to be a couple of SLA 3D printing services in my city after all so that's all good.

>>5923364
Let me get this straight. There is no clay, wax or resin sold nearby but everyone seems to have a three d printer. Instead of just printing off a face why not print off an entire garage kit and prove how much better the quality is to all those hand crafted works from wonfes

>>5923366
Bruh this post is riddled with salt

Who cares if this Anon doesn't want to mold and cast for a simple piece?

It has more to do with the fact that you're offering a solution much more complex than it needs to be. 3D printers are much more expensive, rare, and harder to use for a 1;1 reproduction than spending 40 bucks on Amazon getting some smooth-on Ooomoo and resin. You're giving bad information. It's like someone breaks a materia wrist joint and your solution is to 3d print a new joint and hand. instead of using a pin vise and glue to fix the old.

They do inspire loyalty beyond reason. Upfront their prices are (for figures at least) better than lots of competitors, and their used section is nice but that's about it. Maybe that's all it is. We're they early on the scene for English websites or something?

>>5924436
I will become a one man riot. Hopefully there's at least a color variant released online, but that red is pretty nice.

>>5924477
The big thing with amiami is they consistently update stock at the same time every day and show you what's new every single day. HLJ and HS are both very inconsistent with times, and HS is annoying since everything is compartmentalized, so you have to click through like 6 windows to see everything new while HLJ only shows a few things on their front page.

Plus, they have a cute mascot, which is something that weebs eat up.

>>5924496
still doesn't really justify falling all over oneself trying to justify say, limiting purchases of the megami device stuff to one per customer, given that it's a line where koto's clearly expecting people to buy two of any given kit.
>"but if someone buys two, someone else might not get one!"
>"b-b-but hobbysearch is a smaller store!"

the latter really ground my gears; if they're smaller wouldn't they need to be more shrewd about that shit to make ends meet? but then again, I remember knowing about hobbysearch (by URL, at least) loooong before I'd ever heard of amiami, so...

it's just really weird. it's like stockholme syndrome or something.

>>5924518
Wait, summer is about over, that must be referring to to the HLJ exclusive Baselard. At any rate, so long as I can at least use a forwarder I won't complain TOO hard, but a retail release at the usual suspects is always preferred.

>>5924570
Speaking of which. What's a good forwarding/proxy site? Yes I'm this new to /toy/.

>>5924584
Well, forwarding and proxying are two different things, first off. Proxies buy everything and ship everything to you so you're little more involved in the process than giving a description and saying "I want that" or giving them a page link. Forwarders receive things you buy yourself, essentially functioning as a Japanese address for you, then they [repackage and] send things to you. I don't mess with proxies, but for forwarders 2you4 is currently pretty highly recommended. You may want to check out /a/'s buyfag thread guide for more.

No, in the top article it calls the new materia a "short twintails kemomimi version" and mentions "Hobby Japan Extra 2016 Summer". Googling that is seems the magazine has already released so assume these pics are from said magazine and it is self referencing.

The info box at the bottom doesn't have a price and I can't read anything that says "exclusive" or such so I guess we have to wait for more info to come in.

I'm about to order my first FAG and looked at the guide on Gunpla general which said to get a marker. Any recommendations? I picked out these 3 but am unsure of the difference.

http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10008168
http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10008179
I'm looking for the most 'fits all' size, but would prefer a finer point given the option (e.g I would choose 0.3mm > 0.5mm).

Are there any other accessories I need? I already have clippers and sandpaper.

I ordered on the last day of the sale period, and I got my shipping confirmation a few hours ago.

I think most people should have theirs soon.

>>5925119
Personally, I would always recommend getting the finest marker available, even if it sounds TOO small.

I use Copic Multiliners, black in 0.03 and gray and brown in 0.05. A gray marker is a must-have, I would argue it's even more important than black.

>>5925145

My two Baselards from NY shipped on Monday, waiting on a bunch of Picco Neemo crap for AmiAmi to ship my third one and the Gigantic Arms. Hope they arrive tomorrow, it'll make for a good weekend.

>>5924496
Amiami's supposed to be consistent, but they weren't with the latest Megami Device release. Took them like half a day after HS put theirs up to put them up with that 1 per person bullshit. Nevermind that the limit isn't wasn't justified since they still had preorders available for weeks after the preorders started.

>>5924436
I'm reading from what I can see of the article in that image that they SHOWCASED the illustration and concept at hobby japan summer 2016, not that it was an exclusive then. Plus, if it were an exclusive then, we would have seen it out already, wouldn't we have?

>>5925358
...but they still do, because this shit sells out in ~5min anyway.

and it's not even so much the fact of a limit as much "limit 1" on something where you're effectively intended to buy two. ISTR hobbysearch was "limit 2" on the megami device stuff, so... why can't a "bigger" store do it? if they're bigger and they have more customers and business they should be able to order more, and so on.

Except for the last Megami Device and FAG, you mean? They were both up for three or four days before selling out compared to the less than an hour the first Megami Device was up for.

>>5926007
Think anon believes that you should use grey to line white not black

>>5926026
Not that anon, but I think you can improve it by wiping a nearly dry cotton bud of alcohol on top of it to refine the lines more.

>>5922762
They are Picco Neemo clothes!
It may not be obvious, but I kind of hamhanded that dress (not sure how that's possible) trying to get it off the package cutout and the white part pulled away from the ribbon used as a halter.
Assault Lily clothes work nicely too (basically use the same body as Picco Neemos)

Basically its a bike for anything roughly the size of FAGs and Frame Arms and if it's like the other MSG stuff it is probably modular.

Words I have always wanted to but never could say in earnest. Until now.

>>5928556

smug planes are smug, but there's also something to be said for a mini gigantic arms

>>5928660
I was sure this was hinted a month ago or something or is my mind playing thricks on me.

>>5928326
Timbuktu is that you?

Anyone else having trouble taking out the wrist joints for Baselard? Having a hard time separating the hand from the joint. I already hamhanded both joints for my Materia and am pretty terrified of doing the same here.

>>5928660
Thats the full sized GA

Nah, that's the actual Gigantic Arms. She actually fits in it.

I don't know how I should feel about this.

A Frame Arm that doesn't use Architect frame? Impressive.

Hopefully a new line of designs.

>>5927101
At this point, I'd expect a Frame Arms Girls For Modelers Edition in the future with an improved Gourai kit with all the runners from Architect, Jinrai, Materia and Innocentia.

>>5929069
Nah, I'm pretty sure the frame's still in there somewhere.

They've always done some weird shit with the frame throughout the line in any case. I think Kobold had it with reverse legs and using only the torso and legs even.

Get your dad his own shinkis.

The muscuto kit is interesting. Im worried about the shoulder joint though.it feels like it could break

Synthetic tiny male skin hairs on the arms and legs :)
