    'Sure, you youngsters got moves. But can you do a good old fashioned high kick?'. 20190601_210510.jpg 20190601_210549.jpg 20190601_210612.jpg 20190601_210619.jpg

    Sorry, the best I can do for now. Photos aren't really my thing, as you can probably tell (plus, I've got a few other things going on right now, so this is kind of a rush job). I used a red Gundam marker to paint the 'missiles', but it takes time to dry out.

    I did try to have pics taken from different angles (they're meant to be more 'imformative' than pretty. I'll let someone else do better ones. (Okay, the 'high kick' was Dai Atlas showing off his moves:) )).

    I really recommend these fillers. A couple of simple pieces of plastic make such a big difference to the figure.

    I liked your idea and I didnt understand what all the fuss was about it with that other guy hassling you. Its your figure, you can do whatever you want with it and if your happy with the result thats all that matters!

    I think some people like to argue on here because they just have too much time on their hands.:rolleyes: ;) :D

    Hang on, how did you guys detach Dai Atlas' jet half and tank half?

    Is there a video tutorial?

    Yeah, I'm getting worried that I missed the boat on this part.

    It's been long out of print. I can't navigate taobao well, but this is SL's official taobao site:
    淘宝网 - 淘!我喜欢

    Looking back, this ended up being a much better kit than the Z sword.

    I'm making a guess but it's probably because they aren't expecting enough demand to be worth buying the blue paint for. The trick to 3D printed addons is to make just enough after all, since profits don't scale well with volume using this manufacturing method.
