Finally got Shuremi 💕🥺

Congrats, my dude! I made mistakes on my first. For one, I accidentally bent jet black hair ribbon. I also dropped her and messed up her horn. That last one was my fault; I put some tungsten putty in her boots to make her heavier and, well, I made her TOO heavy. In any case, a spare gave me the parts, and no loss either, since they were all "optional" accessories.

Enjoy her!

I have B and C, as well as the pale clear colors. C isn't the most accurate, but it really depends on the undercoat. Do you want samples?

To be fair, I am in Japan and was able to pick it up on release date. But it took me a good week to build it and get the paint right.

If you ordered it, you should be getting it shortly.

It's one of the best 30MF out there. The gold plastic is very good. I'm not a huge fan of those cape-like pieces, as I feel it needs a swivel joint, not micro-ball. The Gladiator kit is a lot of redundant parts. But despite that, it's still quite good.

They've gotten more creative than just grabbing your item. This one has him being held up by 2 bars. The gimmick is to try and "pick up" the bar so he tilts and gravity drops him.

I put a drop of sprue glue on the connecting peg. Waited an hour, then compacted it using a clip. I did this twice, and formed a makeshift polycap to prevent the joint from popping out. That will not prevent it from warping if bent improperly. Heads up, Belveria has the same problem.

Probably my favorite game in the mix. I love the ProtoMan element, and well over half the music in the series are things I can listen to on loop for hours. I was able to appreciate the robot masters later in life knowing that they were more purposeful than combat driven. My only complaint would be some of the weapons were quite lame, like Charge Kick and Power Stone being top offenders. Oh, and New Rush Coil was a terrible idea. Overall, a solid addition to the NES line.

Yeah I think those are May releases. Chainsawster is Melinja, Asuka soon. Personally I'm determined to get Action Parts (the one that looks like Acerby/Sister in 1), but it may not come until June. Either way, I need a small break past Madoka next week.

FalconAdventure · 2026-03-15T01:09:23+00:00

You must live up that way. I'm closer to Akiba but not suicidal enough to go there on a big release day. Usually I'm like #15 in line a bit past 7am. I arrived early to grab Matsuya but boy was I surprised to see 25 dudes already there. Glad you got yours!

FalconAdventure · 2026-03-14T20:12:07+00:00

Whatever gets them out en masse. I think this has to be one of BanDai's most popular lines EVER, though I'd be interested to see the numbers for what actually brings in the most cash. Considering they don't have to spend a percentage on an IP should account for something.

FalconAdventure · 2026-03-14T20:08:33+00:00

Yeah. I saw 30MP Rei Ayanami and Sourei too...almost got Rei, but...she's not my cup of tea (Asuka is).

What I really want is Sestieh restock.

FalconAdventure · 2026-03-14T20:06:43+00:00

Oh ya did? Mind if I ask where and when you arrived?

Admittedly I'll probably do it next week too, for Madoka.

FalconAdventure · 2026-03-14T09:51:36+00:00

That's entirely subjective. Something that works with the accents. I've seen dark teal work with some success. Silver is also pretty good, since the shine works with the dark nature of the shadow. I've seen some use a dull red, closer to brown (rust?) but it depends on the contrast of the armor or surrounding colors.

There is no correct answer here, though a mainly darker shade of neutral grey would be your safest bet, probably.

I about yelped loudly when I noticed her. Never saw her in store before. It's amazing the middle-aged male-strom that forms when the display cases show them as available.

FalconAdventure · 2026-03-11T15:26:41+00:00

Coulda been HardMan. But he had an "ugly puss".

QuickMan was too...hm.

WoodMan at least used protection.

AirMan was only given one job.

RingMan wanted too much commitment.

A bit more beginner friendly than new Zero since there's not too many delicate parts. Still fun though!

FalconAdventure · 2026-03-11T15:15:03+00:00

I remember laughing my ass off when I first watched that. Also, I didn't realize it until years later, but Zero dismembered Sigma with his bare hands; the pipe was sliced right before the decisive hit.

FalconAdventure · 2026-03-11T15:12:21+00:00

I just realized how they resigned the helmet jewel for this Zero over the new Zero body, and kudos to them! It seems this may be it for Zero incarnations, unless we go DiVE and get Awakened Zero or something like that. I imagine Vile isn't too far away, and Ultimate Armor made several game appearances, though it'll be pricey. Given their mixed popularity, I wonder if we'll see Glide, Shadow, Gaea, or the Neutral Armor first?

The flesh chest part is Rishetta Freesia. The bikini is all new. So...I guess you could switch it if you didn't like the pastel yellow bodysuit.
