Re: Recent Toy Purchase
So the other day I picked up this little guy:
He's a bit smaller than shown in the show
Definitely made for a kid's hands, I can barely fit my hand in the puppet and I have pretty small hands. A little strange it's not the same size as in the TV show since this was only sold at events and online, but c'est la vie. If you have a chance, there's a couple up on auction for a pretty penny (I got mine for 4000 yen), or slightly cheaper on Premium Bandai, though it's only a lottery, so there's a chance you might not get it.

Cute.
It looks like it wants to eat my soul, though.

Recent stuff. Found all three Akibas for about 5000 and snapped up the Virgo from auctions. I really love the amount of detail that went into Virgo.

Got GokaiYellow off auctions recently, after trying to snipe her for about two months.
She and Pink have been getting pretty friendly.

Re: Recent Toy Purchase
Just completed my DX Buster Machine Set (whew)
One thing I noticed though - It is damn hard fitting Great Go-Buster's facemask thing with the stuff going on around and behind it. Clusterfuck at its finest - and Go-Buster King's bigger yet infinitely easier to build!

Re: Recent Toy Purchase
So, I got to go to a con today and came back with a pretty decent Haul. It's funny, the stuff that people wanted from the Toku merch, I sniped from them. Even from my own brother.

Re: Recent Toy Purchase
So I recently picked up the W Master Grade.
No one's at home to bother me so I spent my entire afternoon setting him up.
After that I set him up for a photoshoot, lol...

Re: Recent Toy Purchase
That's really sweet. You've got a good eye for that. Did you have to paint any of the parts or were they all done beforehand?

Re: Recent Toy Purchase
No, it was all stickers, but two interesting things about them:takenoko wrote:That's really sweet. You've got a good eye for that. Did you have to paint any of the parts or were they all done beforehand?
- you get two shiny silver patches that you stick behind the eyes before attaching them; this gets the eyes to shine nicely in the light
- it's hard to see from the first picture, but those black patches on the sticker sheet are actually tiny black strips used to line various parts of W, including the edges of his shoulders, bracers, etc. Even the black strip that goes across his head, neck and torso vertically are black stickers. Those were a pain in the rear to put on, since they were so thin.
