Gabrine!

Her right ankle is the one that I busted. The repair is okay, but it'll just never be up to snuff. If anyone ever does a custom and has the boots to spare, I'll happily buy 'em off you.

Oh, and she's NEVER wearing that other chest piece.

Gee, that sucks. If you plan to get Renge, run her greaves under hot water. Do it anyway. :D

Amen.

As a side note, I prefer the standard chestpiece. it's awesome. :D

EDIT: Is Gabrine an MMS Tall or an MMS small?

Gabrine and Renge are both smalls, like Pomock and Partio. Their paw feet are similar to Pomock and Partio as well, but with a ball joint instead of just a peg to allow more movement. So far only Gabrine seems affected by the stiff joint. =/

Yes, the ankles are balljointed but the feet aren't on Pomock and Partio. Gabrine and Renge have the feet balljointed as well.

Actually, on furthur inspection I'm mistaken. They feet are still slightly different though. The ball joint is on the opposite side.

With Pomock and partio their feet are attached like this: o==]|| where ] is a peg that fits into the foot (||).

Gabrine and Renge instead look like this: 0==o|| 0 is NOT a ball joint but it's shaped like one. it's actually an immobile piece. Where o meets || is the place where my Gabrine's paws were sticking, but this setup allows for a better range of foot movement and less chances of the foot piece just popping off (which I've noticed happens with pomock and partio).

As someone who has Gabrine as well as Partio & Pomock, I can confirm that they all have ball joint ankles although the placement of the ball and socket is different. Where Gabrine (and probably Renge) has the ball coming from her leg and plugging into the foot socket, Partio & Pomock have their balls coming from the foot with the socket in the leg. So yeah, it's reversed.
