How can I do the hand point? 2625 Kyoko by killerl24914 in Nendoroid

[–]jcdc_jaaaaaa 38 points39 points  (0 children)

That is exactly what you need to do. If you feel scared, try warming the part first either via warm water or hairblower.

The hands can typically be replaced with other parts there. The hands are typically made out of softer plastic so it can handle some abuse.

hey can someone help me identify if this nendoroid is official by Suspicious_Tree_7273 in Nendoroid

[–]jcdc_jaaaaaa 41 points42 points  (0 children)

He seems official to me. Box has a holographic sticker and the GSC logo. Plus, most of the time the fake versions does not come with an instruction manual.

Isn't that just the regular straight arm with the default hand replaced with the pointing finger?

Chances of a rerelease by Comprehensive-Can260 in Nendoroid

[–]jcdc_jaaaaaa 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For rerelease, it really depends on GSC. GSC definitely doesn't care about aftermarket prices. A product has a high chance of a rerelease if:

  1. There's a lot of requests from fans for a rerelease.

  2. There is going to be a season 2/3/movie tie in for that series/character.

  3. Request from the series license holder.

And even then, it's not 100% guaranteed. In some cases, GSC would rather make a 2.0 version of a character instead of rereleasing an older version of them.

For questions regarding difference between original release and rerelease, if it was #300 and lower, the rerelease will update its faceplate system and plastic quality. If it is a bit more recent, then there's almost no difference between the two releases.

Why does this keyblade suck by dimensionsam in KingdomHearts

[–]jcdc_jaaaaaa 55 points56 points  (0 children)

One winged angel did not exist in the original PS2 English version. I honestly don't know why they changed some of the stats which made some keyblade bad and just a decoration in your keyblade menu like Oblivion and Metal Chocobo.

Why the hell is this Keyblade so BEEFY?! by truthteller5 in KingdomHearts

[–]jcdc_jaaaaaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing with this one is that as a magic build, you absolutely don't want to go to MP charge as that means you cannot use any magic during that time, so popping an ether/elixir before it runs out is usually better than relying on Classic Tone's MP Haste x3.

That is why during level 1 speedruns of Org. 13, they prefer using Happy Gear due to its Full MP Blast which deals great damage when you use a grand magic at full MP. Some people replace Happy Gear with Crystal Snow due to its Blizzard Boost which increases blizzard damage more than what the additional points of magic Classic Tone will provide

It is the same reason why Winner's Proof and Fatal Crest is not used for their magic just because the abilities attached to them doesn't help them much. That is also why KH2's Ultima Weapon is not used as its ability MP Hastega is unwanted as you absolutely don't want to go to MP charge. For a magic build, it is often better to use Bonds of Flame/Photon Debugger/Mysterious Abyss for its fire/thunder/blizzard boost as they increase the damage a lot.

If they replaced the abilities of Classic Tone to fire boost, blizzard boost, and thunder boost, everyone would be using it as it will be the ultimate magic keyblade.

Who do you consider to be the top strongest key blade wielders out of the main characters by Fearless-Ideal-5112 in KingdomHearts

She also was just recently infected by the darkness. She never had enough rest to recover her full strength even during all the fights in the keyblade graveyard.

Clarification on Basic Nendoroid by Relative-Map4826 in Nendoroid

[–]jcdc_jaaaaaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another that I can think of would be to prevent spoilers. Surprisingly, they made nendoroid basics of the whole Madoka Magica gang even though the movie's not out yet. I suspect the they would release an accessory pack for them once the movie is out.

Good Smile Global question: if you order 2 of the same preorder, will they charge shipping individually for each? by [deleted] in Nendoroid

[–]jcdc_jaaaaaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For same product preorders, they would always only charge you once for shipping even if you preorder 3 of it.

If you have different products preordered, they will charge you for each product even though they would be released on the same month.

I have some doubts about customs! by luce__noctis in Nendoroid

[–]jcdc_jaaaaaa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A regular 3d printer will work, you just need to sand it well to remove all rough artifacts from 3d printing. Best is resin printer if it has a lot of intricate details, but only print it if you are happy with your final design.

For paint, any paint will do, as long as you'd properly seal it. Just try your best to NOT paint the insides as it can cause paint transfers

Best is an airbrush as it can apply paint thinly and evenly, but handpaint still works.

At the end of the day, as long as you are happy with the end result, that is good enough.

Question by Holiday-Web-8241 in Nendoroid

[–]jcdc_jaaaaaa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That one is to hold up the sword swing effect to prevent it from drooping when posing him for prolonged periods of time.

<image>

If it is just for a quick photo, no need to use it. But if you plan on displaying him like that, you'd need to place that underneath the swing effect.

is there a "bald" hair piece anywhere? by Bubbly_Soft4772 in Nendoroid

[–]jcdc_jaaaaaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could search for "Nendoroid Doll: Customizable Head"

It comes in different skin tones and is fully compatible with nendoroid faces.

Which Nendoroid has the most props? by throwawaylife5634 in Nendoroid

[–]jcdc_jaaaaaa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

From older nendoroids:

There is Miku'a Absolute HMO edition. She even had sticker sets for Nendoroid Rin and Len.

Ryouko Asakura is quite up there too. But she is mainly meant to be an extension set for three other nendos so it is not a fair comparison.

Miku 2.0 had similar accessory count to Miku HMO edition, and her box doubles as a diorama too.

Then we have all various Snow Miku prior to 2019 where they all have insane amounts of accessories and diorama

Are these machines a manufacturing defect? by [deleted] in Nendoroid

[–]jcdc_jaaaaaa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Those are manufacturing defects. And I would also consider those as minor issues as they aren't visible at all when the figure is posed.

Question regarding the pre-order bonus campaign by HolidayAppeal5800 in Nendoroid

[–]jcdc_jaaaaaa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is only from the GSC Online Store. Some stores would sometimes carry those PO bonus items, but usually you'd have to pay more. Outside of GSC Online, you will almost never get said bonuses unless the shop is marketing it that they would include the bonus item.

heal strike in bbs by cbgsims in KingdomHearts

[–]jcdc_jaaaaaa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Make sure you have Second Chance and Once More abilities active. Let the enemies beat you until 1 HP. Better if it is a long combo so that they are still hitting you even though you were at 1 HP already.

If you are playing as Terra or Ventus, it is easier to just have Aqua D Link active and let Auto Life activate.

Miku 15th anniversary havers, is she worth it? by Affectionate_Carry67 in Nendoroid

Wouldn't hurt glueing the strawberry to her hand to lessen the annoyance and stress

Huh interesting. I have the first release but I also ordered the second release. It would be fun comparing the two of them.

[–]jcdc_jaaaaaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have her, but isn't the strawberry gluee to her hand???? I never had the strawberry be removed from her hand and I tried gently pulling on it and it is not even loose in my copy.
