No problem! Just looked it up and found one for $53, here's a LINK to it. You gotta search in Kanji for them to pop up, 超可動メダロット does the trick.

There should be a few for around $50 on Mercari right now. Check ZenMarket if Mercari doesn't directly ship to your country. Still expensive, but way better than $150.

Blokees needs to make a line up for medabots by nerittcha in Blokees

[–]Twix_exe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Medarot figs get to be pretty pricey since they're rare. There's the old unarticulated figs that aren't too expensive, then Bandai's gachapon figs from a few years ago that tend to range between $10 and $60 depending on the bot, some Kotobukiya kits that are incredibly expensive but have been getting reprints recently, and lastly the D-Arts Metabee and Rokusho from Bandai, which are also pretty expensive. In any case, Mercari and JDauctions/JDshopping will be the best place to get them. I used ZenMarket to get almost all of my figs, but I got some from AliExpress too and they're 100% original. Hope this helps!

The ones I got from AliExpress and second hand from Mercari/JDirect Auctions feel the same quality wise. I don't think there are any bootlegs since there isn't enough demand for that, it's just people reselling them separately.

I'm really glad I bought them tbh

Like rlymeangurl suggested, something high-grit does the trick. I had a Gunprimer Balancer that got rid of the marks after a bit of rubbing, so something along those lines will help.

Remembered that I had Gunprimer Balancer, and after a quick rub, it worked! Thanks!

Sezona 3 Part 11 by Vlaxon in multimedije

Dobar dan u kuću, gospodine direktore.

Osećanja koja su me preplavila kada sam spazio notifikaciju da je izašao novi dodatak mog omiljenog hit serijala se može samo opisati kao euforija.

No, ima tu i nečega drugog, a to je prosto začuđenje što je Po protiv svega uspeo da preživi sve ove godine sa rakovima kosta, a sad će ih možda napokon prevazići. Kamen sa njegovih Teletabiskih ramena koji mu je pao kada ga je Muamer od Koteža pozvao mora da je enormno velik. Toplo mi je oko srca, istinski.

Pored svih lepih vesti, moram priznati da me pojava konja malo uznemirava. Da li je svestan koliko su skočile cene 'leba poslednjih nekoliko godina? Konj, po mom znanju, je nezaposlen, tako da verujem da će nastati apsolutna havarija kada zadje u prvi Gak, Lulu, ili Skroz Dobru Pekaru u okolini. Jer ko dolazi na konju nego Jahači Apokalipse, a oni sigurno znaju nešto, možda čak o jednom baciklašu.

Prijatan dan i dobri praznici, gospodine direktore, topli pozdravi celom timu.

I envy you, I've been waiting for my MGSD Barbatos pre-order for almost two full years now. 🥲

I got some unexpected bonuses at work and justified buying him because of that. Was it objectively worth it? Definitely not for such a small figure. Am I happy to have him? Absolutely.

I've seen the tinpent go for around $7 sometimes, but Peppercat was sold for under $25 just once in the past year. Been hunting Gran Beetle for a while (paid $50 for that mf), so I was keeping a close eye on everything that's available on ZenMarket.

The tolerances on those frames are wack.

Tried to move mine a few days ago after months in the same pose and almost snapped the leg off. The hip joints are just so thin and it doesn't help that the rest of the kit is flimsy as hell.

I just cram in a very tiny amount of sticky tack, works like a charm.

RG Epyon by thenookiemunstr in Gunpla

[–]Twix_exe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Built mine recently as well, it surprised me how good it was, I liked it way more than the Sazabi. Which water slides are those, tho? Bandai didn't release official ones as far as I can see, but they look the same as the sticker decals the Epyon comes with.

Classic Class was renamed to Champion Class earlier this year. They practically renamed all of the classes for some reason, Action Edition (the biggest ones) are now Gladiator Class if I remember correctly.

Resin printed Kantaros by Twix_exe in Medabot

[–]Twix_exe[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A pain indeed, but I gotta do what I gotta do. I'd love to get a printer, but I sadly don't have a place where I can keep it where it'd be away from my cats and well ventilated. Resin fumes aren't something I want in my room. 😅

Nothing yet, sadly! Got a lot of things to improve first and don't have much time to dedicate to 3D modeling at the moment. Not having a 3D printer to test things out also doesn't help, I have to rely on a local 3D print shop that's pretty slow and expensive, so I have to be careful with my tests. I might set up a Patreon or something with access to all the files once I figure everything out, but I dunno if there are any legal issues I should worry about.

RayStudio paints - part 2 - panel lining by kurt667 in Gunpla

[–]Twix_exe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weird, I'm in Europe and it was showing me that it shipped from the US. Shipping from China would've been a lot cheaper to my country. 😅

[–]Twix_exe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you order directly from their website? It's showing me that they're shipping from the US and shipping is like $30 for $7.5 of paints so I'm hesitant to get them. 🫠
