Re: And So It Begins (Kotobukiya Busou Shinki)
My greatest concern about the new busou shinki besides the derpy prototypes (I've seen a lot of japanese action figure prototypes and they all look way better and were very close to the final product) is that they will be incredibly fragile, even more then my big time let down figma (Saber Alter wh...

Re: And So It Begins (Kotobukiya Busou Shinki)
That's a bit pricy, but not exactly unexpected. For comparison, most FA Girls have been around $40 or so, and they've had nowhere near as much armor as a Wave 1 Shinki (though given the relative sizes, I'm still a bit disappointed; that's more expensive than even most UC-era MGs, and I doubt Koto's ...

Re: Klinkin's Shinki Lab: Update Sept 25
So...oops. It's been over a year. I've been hard at work, and today I have not one, but two Frame Musumes to show off! http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f27/Tahu_1000/Frame%20Musume/IMG_0139_zpsqivtyxyp.jpg Both still need a coat of paint, but their existing colors work surprisingly well. That said...

Re: Which Shinkis should be remade first?
Koto Direct or first-run exclusives, most likely, if what they're doing with Frame Arms and FA Girls is any indication. tell that to all the Extend Arms sets. Extend Arms feels like a little more than what we normally see in Shinki exclsuives. That said, though, how Koto likes to release recolored ...

Re: custom shinki Re-paint - How?
Tamiya or Mr. Color acrylics are probably the two most-commonly used paints; Testors also makes a wonderful selection and are popular and common among American hobbyists and hobby stores, but they're mostly enamels, which aren't water-soluble.

Re: Which Shinkis should be remade first?
I for one, since some of the original shinkis were re-released at some point with extra parts/accessories, would like to see kotobukiya's shinki kits to include all such extra parts, (for example, their initial Arnval and Strarf kits include everything that the Tranche 2 and bis came with) but othe...

Re: Which Shinkis should be remade first?
I'd say it depends on how Koto decides to go about the rereleases. Arnval looks to be a relatively straight redo; new body, sure, and as a kit, but the overall design is next to identical. Wave 1 held up pretty well, but after them, it wasn't until Wave 5 that Shinki got back to that level of qualit...

Re: And So It Begins (Kotobukiya Busou Shinki)
i wonder if there's a short hair piece somewhere (or tranche parts? maybe?) Kotobukiya Direct exclusive, probably. Koto loves their exclusive bonuses even more than Konami did. On the plus side, some of their recent exclusives from the FA and FA Girl lines have been available in the KotoUS shop, so...

Re: And So It Begins (Kotobukiya Busou Shinki)
That is a Frame Arm Girl base body; it, along with the Architect Girl, were on display during WonFes, too.
