    I think like BSF said in his Rung review, MMC doesn't get enough credit for how well they do the head sculpts and capturing the characters for their Reformatted/Ocular Max lines.
    As I'd say they are for sure 2nd best or tied with HasTak's MP/MPM heads when they aren't rushed (aka MPM-04's chipmunk cheeks).

    And if people think they do get enough credit, well they're wrong the deserve more.

    Hey all!

    picked up Optus Pexus after buying Optus Nox and noticed the fingers on my Nox are a tad bit looser. Are there any potential fixes that anyone could recommend to make those fingers a little tighter?

    Pledge floor polish, or some Kikis which is basically that watered down some for viscosity and in a small, convenient package with a more useful application method.

    PSX Taobao is currently selling the broken-faceplate head in Pexus colors separately, for anyone who shops via Taobao. (淘宝网 - 淘!我喜欢)

    Look like PSX website won’t carry it. I bet the reason is that for people who bought Nox on PSX Taobao, it doesn’t come with the battle damaged head for Pexus and that’s why they offer it.

    Unfortunately i have no experience with buying from TaoBao and it's really hard to navigate/trust the site. Is there anyone on here willing to buy a few and have me buy one off of them?

    .
    Which color scheme do you prefer? And if you like both equally, Nox does come with more accessories (sword, cape, along with the two guns both Pexus and Nox have)

    Nox has better accessories. Pexus has more paint, though it does chip a bit. I guess I'd lean towards Nox just a bit as I really love the battle-damaged head sculpt.

    Or you can wait for other repaints as there will be at least one more, if not a few

    Has anyone put any photos up of Pexus with the damaged head attached? I got the head with my nox from psx but I'm finding Pexus to be surprisingly expensive - when I can find it (robotoybase has pexus for like 50USD more than nox right now).
