Virtual-On Forums

Temjin...with boobs?

Completed these two models in the last months. Wave 1/144 OMG Temjin resin kit in "Test Type" colors (the one shown in the short movie demonstrating the controls): temjingk4.jpg temjingk6.jpg This kit gave me some issues, as the primer kept flaking off. So various details ended up a bit so...

Do you own/ have you built either of them yet? I'm curious to see what they are like when built. They use the same molds as the Raiden Black Onyx that I showed on one of the first pages of this thread, so they can look good, but will require some real modelling work to do so (I own them now, but bu...

So for anyone interested in the old Wave 1/144 plastic kits, their Raiden (Player 1) kit includes a booklet with high-res images of Raiden that I haven't seen elsewhere yet, and the Player 2 kit includes a decal sheet besides the stickers.

Just now got acquainted with this forum, still a bit new, but thought it was worth makin an account, pretty much just because of this thread. Been building models for a few years, but after playing through each of the games, decided to pick up a few virtual on models, from hasegawa. Currently have ...

Dude, FFS:

...which is a definition that is used on about all scale modelling forums ever (and in books, and in catalogues, and by people who make model kits for a living - since about the inception of model kits several decades ago). I...am not sure where you got those definitions of yours, porcupine. They ar...

I never got that Hatsune Miku Fei-Yen but it's good to know that it was overproduced in case I ever change my mind on it. I would surely have gotten it when it came out if it had been part of a more complete VOOT set, but it's all alone. Looks pretty decent though. It's a Bandai product, it will ha...

Oh, I had seen pictures of that but I did not realize they were of that particular figure. I guess it's a typical white resin garage kit after all. I'm not sure what you mean when you say it's a model kit made of resin? I've never purchased any VO model kits, but Gundam model kits and such are usua...

Porcupine it's this one: http://buyee.jp/item/yahoo/auction/b165069455 These are PVC (that tends to get very sticky with age), and in my opinion quite awful. @Johnydark: A "complete" collection of 1st gen Fei-Yens is impossible to achieve, especially if you count event-only model kits. Yo...

This is part of Kaiyodo's "Robot Museum" line up (don't bother searching for the Japanese version of "Robot Museum", they almost never show up under that name...). Their original price is much, much lower than 50,000 yen (completely insane price, that seller is smoking something)...

Looks like the "run and jump around while firing"-tactic in that level against that kind of enemy is just a very bad idea. Do that in VOOM against Dorkas and you also end up dead quite quickly. Unless you run/fly behind his back.

On the other hand, Hasegawa's Temjin has this cool mechanism in the upper leg.

Volks doing Raiden would be weird, as Kotobukiya already did both the DNA and RNA versions. Cypher or Angelan would be nice.

The panties?

She's a loli that becomes something very powerful?

Hasegawa will bring out the next Kagekiyo variant in December:

I think so. IIRC the Temjin reservations ran for about two months, ending around a week and a half before it shipped. They haven't shown any bonus for the Fei-Yen yet, but I know there was another Japan-only exclusive parts set for the Temjin sold at some con or festival or whatever that was the Sa...

Beware, I've heard the Hasegawa kits need quite a bit of work. I've been messing with the Volks Temjin, and a few people are telling me based on the stuff I've posted on another forum that it's very similar to the Hasegawa kits. Yep, Hasegawa has fragile joints, super delicate waterslide decals and...

As a follow-up to myself, I recently obtained the Kaiyodo Specineff, and it's everything that the earlier figures aren't: a great action figure. Firstly, it doesn't feel fragile, like many of the earlier figures (Apharmds exempted). Secondly, the joints are less "extreme" than on the previ...

Edit: 7,000 yen, November 2014.

Anyone know where those kits can be ordered? I've only seen them at Volks' Japanese site until now...
