Better than those dry-rub decals. Eugh. Waterslides just need a topcoat (which you should be using if you're painting anyway).

Koto hasn't revealed much, but according to some translations, they'll be a full kit (pre-assembled figure-quality blank bodies may be assembled). Judging by Frame Arms and RAcaseals, the faces and possibly some other parts will come prepainted; there will also possibly be waterslide decals.

I see someone likes yellow super robots.

Cute.

the only thing i hope is that even if they end up as kits, we dont have to deal with face /head/hair painting, and stickers. the rest i can handle. Like CI said, Koto's generally pretty good about that stuff. If the RAcaseal kits and Frame Arm Girls are anything to go by, expect hair molded in colo...

Hm...if I'm understanding this right, Koto Shinki are going to have kit bodies, but be compatible with the non-kit Machineca bodies. That's...actually a very good compromise. I'm now considering putting off some of my major projects to use the Machineca base body, and I'll definitely use either that...

You're dead-set on the entire collection staying together? I'd be willing to adopt a few, but I unfortunately don't have the space nor time for many. I'm already trying to find more modular shelving and coming up empty.

He's got some sort of knife, by the looks of things. That said: diagonal cutters. They will be your very best friend.

Limited at best. FA Girls don't actually have a base body like a Frame Architect, but they do have 3mm ports. You can attach weapons and accessories, but actual armor probably won't attach easily.

Nice use of a RAcaseal as a base body; thanks again for finding that kit.
