Ranka-Killer Posted May 2, 2020 Posted May 2, 2020 (edited) Hi! I just made sort of a video review of armored valkyrie nichimo 1/200 kits (first time doing this) Edited May 7, 2020 by Ranka-Killer Quote
Shawn Posted May 2, 2020 Posted May 2, 2020 Thank you for posting this, very nice review! (I used youtube's closed captioning > english translation service) I had no idea the re-releases used stickers and not decals. You are correct in that cutting those out and applying them would be very challenging. The sculpt of that kit is spot on I think, Nichimo did a great job with something so small. Look forward to seeing more Shawn Quote
MechTech Posted May 3, 2020 Posted May 3, 2020 Bueno Ranka-Killer! Yeah, the re-releases just have uncut stickers! I think the stickers vs decals was a hint to Nichimo's demise. I agree with Shawn, in fact, I really like all of their 1/200 sculpts. It was one BIG reason I did the 1/200th Daedalus. They looked so good, I thought they would look even better in a realistic setting. - MT Quote
Ranka-Killer Posted May 7, 2020 Author Posted May 7, 2020 Thanks for your comments! Yes, I was a little disappointed for the stickers, but the sculpt of the kit is so well done that i loved the build. What surprised me is that each kit comes with an extra piece not shown in the instructions, a tubular piece that I suppose is a reminiscence of the weird colored bubble that came with the original vintage releases.

Shawn Posted May 25, 2020 Posted May 25, 2020 The GPB looks fantastic. You are quickly becoming "Nichimo King" Quote
Gabe Q Posted May 25, 2020 Posted May 25, 2020 What a really nice build! I enjoyed the videos. I think we all agree they're great kits with lots of potential but the trick is finding them at a reasonable price! Quote
MechTech Posted June 5, 2020 Posted June 5, 2020 "Nichimo King" That video is cool! Thanks for sharing! - MT Quote
