i know you fuckers like robo girls. any impressions on the bandai pso figures? they're pretty old and it's hard to find reviews for em
That specific one is pretty good. She's got metal on her so there's a nice weight that doesn't interfere with her flexibility. Comes with loads of accessories. I don't know what kind of metal sadly or how well it will react to aging so only time will tell.
I personally think she's nicer than the Drossel Charming figma everyone is in love with.
That RAcaseal is amazing, the black variation is good as well. She's the best robot girl out there imo. Amazing articulation and she has heft to her, posing is great.
She comes with a ton of gear and is definitely worthwhile. Unfortunately she wasn't popular enough, so we never got follow ups.
>>6129245
worth every penny, and i got her on clearance.
>>6129400
She's half of my OTP.
>>6129400
When you say "clearance" do you mean the bst?
i own both of the variants of the posted racaseal. they are my favorite figures, the black one was a grail of mine because it was impossible to find at a decent price. recently got it off of a BTS thread and regret nothing.
the model kits are very similar in size shape and posability. if you like one of those designs better you wont do yourself wrong by picking one of those up instead. however it was challenging for me to build, even having done some kits for fun in the past.
if you have no experience with model kits, look up what they look like finished but unpainted. the figures arent bad without paint but the weapons look significantly worse
>>6129512
nope, she went on a clearance sale on hlj for 50% off msrp.
Kireek when???
>Several RAcaseal figures out there
>HUcaseal never
I collect the weird Chogokins Bandai does and the PSO ones are definitely my fave. Very well designed figure and she did go cheap on most of the web shops back in the day.
I'd definitely recommend getting if you're a PSO fan.
i'm glad its all positive impressions cause i already placed an order on mandy. nice to have some reassurance. also a nice reminder to never buy anything from the bst threads ayyy
>>6129791
You won't be disappointed, if you get the thing in good condition.
You get a kick ass stand that's like the magic circle for the Photon blast, along with a bunch of stickers for her icon, and icons for the stand. A dime will fit the stickers and the stand fine if you don't want to cut any shit out for it.
no regrets

>She's the best robot girl out there imo
100%
>>6129983
She is adorable with her rare drop
But you just know it's a fucking Varista.
they come with a ton of accessories. i was overwhelmed when I first got her
>>6129417
>That little booty
HNNNG
>>6131852
> I don't like perfect robot asses.
Are you faggot, anon?
I love RAcaseals!
Actually have a question of the Chogokin. Can I swap its head without breaking it?
>>6131893
Nice pic. Reminds me how some years ago when /toy/ discovered the Shamrock garage kit, I was on the fence between getting him through a middleman or getting Elenor which someone mentioned looked similar. I got her instead, and she's a much better value for your money than the Polynian GK or the figures
>>6131977
Yeah, the Elenor is amazing. I don't understand how it was so cheap.
>>6129245
This one's my personal all-time favorite figure. Great articulation, very solid, nice paint job and a ton of accessories.
I always hoped they would release a second with a better colorscheme, so I never picked it up. But it looks nice.
>>6133617
There is another...
which I also happen to own :------)))))
>>6133699
Now that you mention it I do remember that one. I just forgot about it because of how overpriced it feels with the extra hoops to jump through to obtain and the downgrade in accessories.
>>6135568
Her box is twice the size of the pink racaseal's. Comes with fuck hueg umbrella opened and closed parts. Two head parts, two face plates, to make 2 different characters.
>>6135616
Yeah, a bunch of superfluous junk that I'm not interested in plus it was a tamashii nations exclusive right? Fuck all that noise.
Did someone say Racaseal?
>>6135640
Should I get a chogokin one? The black one looks cute.
>>6135643
I love my pink one so would say yes. No idea how much the black one goes for.
>>6135622
then why call it a downgrade in accessories? because it doesnt have a pile of meseta?
>>6135897
Pink Eleanor comes with meseta, sniper rifle, beam sword, pistol, item box, holders for each mesata crystal
Exclusive comes with one handle, two umbrella tops to connect to it (open and closed), two pistols, two faces (human and Eleanor), and a katana.
Eleanor comes with a normal mag and angel wing mag.
Shino comes with squirrel mag.
For the money, you could get Eleanor for $50 shipped from Mandarake, I paid $110 for Shino.
Alternatively the Masaki Apsy models are on point, but you have to put in a little word. Purchase Redria or Shino, they come with all the items Eleanor and Whitill come with along with the knuckles from their own kid.
If you're a scale fag, APSY himself makes garage kits of like 1/24 scale or so.
Lots of options. I'm >>6135640 by the way.
>>6136210
I ordered a Redria recently but hasn't arrived yet. Can you tell me what it looks like when you open the box for the first time? Like do I have to assemble it or something?
i have this by kotobukiya but have yet to build it
>>6129417
That's actually quite cute. No, not just the butt.
>>6129245
i have it, its great. chogokin charming drossel is better. picked both up in singapore a few years back.
>>6136210
gunpla general just buy them as host bodies to customise since theyre cheaper than FAGs. i have 3 pink raccaseals, 1 redria & 2 yellowboze.
>>6131852
being this much of a normie.
>>6136210
$50? Try $100 if you want it it new. Still though, she was worth every penny.
>>6136790
same here dont want to use the ID stickers
>>6136790
They regularly come on Mandarake, box sealed, for 5k yen. I check regularly for the sky blue eleanor, I literally check every day and every time figinstock tells me 'racaseal' got added.
She's worth $100, but getting her for $30 shipped with a bent box is an AMAZING deal.
