Patlabor Boxarts.

Those look pretty cool!

[Duymon]

That boxart is amazing. Absolutely love it

[Big s]

That economy box art has gotta be one of the best boxes of the year. It’s not doing anything, but everything kinda tells it’s own story

Just a quick FYI in case anyone's interested, and since the discussion is currently topical, I'm looking to offload some kits in the FS section.

• Bandai Helldiverr
• Moderoid Helldiver
• Moderoid Ingram + Bulldog
• Moderoid Peacemaker
• Moderoid Type Zero

Not a bad price for the bunch. If I didn’t have all of those on backlog I’d totally buy em

For anyone who has the Yamato 1/24 Patlabor Ingrams, have the cloth joint coverings on your begun to disintegrate?  The fabric on mine appears to be "flaking" off, for lack of a better term.  The figure has just been stored out of the package but in a plastic tub all this time.  Rarely moved or posed it at all.

Is this happening to anyone else's toy?

I'll try to post a pic of mine.

Sorry for the 3 year delay! 😅

Ooh that’s too bad. Perhaps you could take them apart and copy the pattern and sew replacements with new fabric.

[jenius]

Ooh I missed this... now I'm afraid to take my old Yamatos out of storage!

[tekering]

This must be a "your mileage may vary" situation. 🤔

Mine shows no signs of deterioration:

If only my Beagles could say the same! 😭

Saw these up for preorder from Genco. 1/60 scale for the moderoids

The faux leather on mine still looks good. What kind of climate do you live in? That could be a factor.

Strange that Genco's own website has no listing for them... 🤔

Mind you, there's no mention of their 1:20 vinyl Ingram figure, either. 🤨

I guess this is the best place to share my build-up of my Aoshima Patlabor Ingrams.

[tekering]

The Aoshima Ingrams are my favorite.  The articulation, the clear and vac-metallized parts, the cockpit detailing, and the decals are all superior to Moderoid's. 

Did you get Unit 2 as well?

I do have unit 2. I like both the Aoshima and Moderoid kits for different reasons. The Aoshima kits for the level of detail they offer, and the Moderoid kits for the variety of labors they are producing in their line.

[tekering]

Moderoid have given us some great kits of obscure military labors, but there are several prominent designs I'm still waiting to see at 1:60 scale:

They definitely still have a few great designs to go, but it seems like every time I think they’re gonna quit another one or two pop up.

They did go up for retail preorder last night, so it’s odd they don’t have them listed. I guess that they’re better at producing products than updating their website. I guess they hired great sculptors but terrible I.T. Or something

I'm still plenty happy with my Side Labor collection. I've contemplated, once or twice, buying the ThreeZero unit 1, 2 and 3, but I just prefer having far more figures then just three big figures from just the TV series.
