Armored Core Figure

not bad.. but I've been bitten by Kaiyodo too many times. I think every figure I have by them has broken.

Assuming the above is Kaiyodo. If it IS chogokin, who do I give my money to??? :ph34r:

that things smells fragile to me. I lost the AC spirit after buying 3 of the kaiyodo figures and they all broke. And no I wasn't using them as baseballs or anything!

Yeah those Gundam kits just fall apart. There's no way a model kit will be as sturdy as the action figures were. :rolleyes:

Kotobukiya is in no way small. But just to be sure, are we talking about this one?

There's only 1 model so far right? Or is there only one kinda mecha in Armored core? They all look the same to me.

And I realise there are some optional parts too. What parts come with the base kit then?

The thing with Armored Core is that there is no single mecha, you actually put together any part to form the frame. Different heads, arms, bodies, and legs which you can purchase and swap for optimum performance in the games. Judging from the joints on the kit though, it might be possible to swap with other parts from other models. But that's just a hunch anyway.

http://www.geocities.jp/hetare_d_max/galle...nit001_003.html <-- equipped with optional weapon units.

Weren't there some high end action figures that were very cool. I've got a copy of the original Armored Core Playstation game on the way and if I like it, I might consider buying some of the toys, but I'm looking for something bigger than the typical action figure sizes.

I'm quite sure those pictures have paint on them. I got one of the Gaea kits and boy was it quite heavy. Its scaled at 1/72 so not sure how big its gonna be whe you're done with it. The colours out of the box seem very blackish and dark. The blue parts isn't the blue that's shown in the pictures. Its darker almost black. But generally everything is in its base colour. I think I'm gonna do a hack job of painting this thing. Get some metallic blue, gunmetal and black spray cans....that should do the trick. ;)

I just got Mirage (this kotobukiya AC) yesterday, and I was wondering: how has the quality of Kotobukiya's SUPER ROBOT WARS model kits been?

I fear I might have foolishly splurged out too much on 3 kotobukiya kits in one go.
