>Lavina dispatched from Mandarake Nakano
Yay! Now the long, long wait begins...

I wonder what I should name her when she arrives? I'm leaning towards Algol, after the star (which is, IIRC, considered a sign of woe and doom in traditional astrology).

Pity I couldn't get the full arms package but that was nearly as much as a Soul of Chogokin SPEC Evangelion, so fuck that.
>>
>>5567940

Congrats anon. Don't forget to post pictures when your new girl arrives.
>>
>>5567942
Thanks, and I'll be sure to post pics. I'm intending to make her a little cloak when she gets here to make her extra menacing. I was torn between her, Strarf Bis and Zelnogrard, but I needed a villain for Espadia and Lancamento (who is also arriving soon hopefully) to fight, which Zelnogrard looks too cute for. As for Strarf Bis, she just looked a bit plain next to Strarf Lavina's sexy, sexy white and red.

In other news, I recently watched up to ep 6 of the anime. This shit is hilarious, if occasionally cringeworthy. The Shinki snatcher episode had some great action and made me want to buy the trike sisters (so I guess it's doing its job?). The racing episode was probably my favourite, with Ia's constant twisting of the rules and Mary Celes' foul-mouthed antics (and of course more Tamami and Potchi, which is always good). The beach episode was probably the weakest (because LOLBEACHEPISODE) but it did have some cute moments, and the "Aw crap, it's the wrong case!" bit simultaneously had me smacking my head and laughing. The terrorist episode was pretty good too.

Overall though I'm enjoying it, though I do have to skip the OP and ED as quite frankly they're just painfully generic and grating.

/toy/ isn't a generals board, not everything needs to fit in one. Technically, I think Assault Lily and Picco Neemo should have a thread of their own, but they die fairly quickly when one gets started. Which is weird, since judging by the price increases on the aftermarket, these things are getting exponentially more popular every release.

With the scope naturally expanding with the sister lines (new kits, Frame Arms Girls, Desktop Army, and god willing Megami Devices sometime this year) why wouldn't we want to talk about other similar stuff? They all fall in line with the palm sized fighting robot girls theme. Assault Lilly not so much, but who cares. Shinkis already wear Picco Neemo clothes so you can just pretend they fit. I used to be against non-Shinki things in the Shinki threads but honestly, it's not that big of a deal.

Watched yet more Busou Shinki anime.
>inb4 >>>/a/

The ghost episode was...chilling. Poor Ines. I was half expecting her to be straight-up murdered. Hilariously enough, the twist that her master was actually dead was the least freaky thing about the whole episode. Also, now I want a Fubuki.

The Humanized Ann episode was kinda dumb but still pretty adorable.

The Abandoned Shinkis episode was actually pretty great. Surprisingly grim, though only by the standards of the otherwise very light and fluffy series. I was a bit disappointed that Empress Claudi was yet another Eukrante though. I guess they must have been wanting to save money through asset reuse, but I would have preferred a more grandiose/evil looking Shinki like Graffias or even Murmeltier as an evil overlord. A minor nitpick in what was otherwise a great episode but worth noting.

So here's a question: If through some miracle we got a second season, what plots for episodes would you guys like to see?
I had a few ideas...
>The gang meet a bunch of Chinese knock-off Shinkis who mean well but are glitchy as hell, loaded with malware and speak broken Japanese...
>Master begins collecting statueshit, and the Shinkis grow jealous of the attention the...inanimate objects receive...
>The gang discover a heavily damaged Shinki on a routine walk and take it back to the house for repairs. Unfortunately her processor is damaged and she goes on the rampage...

Obviously it goes without saying that all Shinkis are to be loved, but which is in /bsg/'s opinion the worst Shinki toy?

I can't really comment as I only own 1 Shinki (soon to be 3) but in terms of looks alone I'd say Vitulus.
>Despite being a cow girl is not even that stacked
>Equipment has practically zero modularity potential
>Alternate face looks kinda like it came out of a particularly creepy hentai
>Armoured form makes practically zero sense and makes her look like a grotesquely bloated legless pregnant woman

>Seriously what is up with that armoured form

Of course I don't own her so I could be completely wrong, but compared to literally every other Shinki she just looks so...meh.

I simply disregarded her as just a combination piece for tigris at first. That is what she is, but she is actually quite fun. Her face might not be as pleasing as others but, I also think it did well for its time. The armor Can be fun and the girl has a few different hair combinations as well. Though not as busty as fish tits, I found her quite charming in person. Her rounder chest piece is actually quite nice. Her hair pieces are very fun to put on other similar colored hair shinkis, and she can make a good sentry turret. (I liked the combo tho. Its why i got her in the first place.)

Yeah, looking at some better pics of her she isn't SO bad I guess. That stock photo kinda made her look like the pod connected directly into her lower body, giving her an enormous stomach, as opposed to how it actually is (giving her a little recessed seat in the pod connected to her thigh joints). I did a bit of research and the pod is supposed to be a hover device I think?

It's still not my favourite Shinki design by a long shot, and the alternate face is still creepy as hell (though I do like the standard face quite a bit) but perhaps she isn't as bad as I first thought. I think if the pod were a bit bigger she'd look a bit better to be honest.

>>5569911
Yeah, they are a little dull I guess. They're neat designs (I do like Benio's skull mask) but they do look a tad out of place next to other Shinkis. Are there any major design flaws with them? I see them going on Mandy for very cheap and wondered if there was a "catch" so to speak.
>>
>>5569923
Xiphos is actually pretty cool, it's just her head looks really small compared to other shinki like the BLADE animal shinki. She's got lots of weapons and sweet plate armor parts.
>>
>>5569911
Both Benio and Xiphos come with a metric ton of gear.
>>
>>5569923
A lot of shinkis I disliked grew on me once I owned them. But even if i like the calf gal, you are right. there a lot better designed shinks. The pod is quite big already In my opinion. I was planning on repainting her faces though, along with a lot of other shinks.

The most disappointing shink that i've gotten has honestly been Altines. She is adorable, but it feels like its only the girl that makes it. The armor is so goddamn fiddly and annoying to deal with. Posing has been troubling. Still really cool otherwise though. Maybe mine was just bad?

How about we talk about good but underrated shinks?

Grapprap is one I really want- she reminds me of the power loader from Aliens. I wish they'd released her as a full set rather than just an EX addon kit. (Not sure what colours they'd do her in if they did, though Constructicon green and purple would be awesome). She seems to come up a lot on Mandarake for very good prices so I'll likely get her when I'm next able to buy.

That's the thing that turned me off of her the most. Her floating udder looks and acts like a wheelchair and even hides her legs? Why would a cow need a wheelchair? If she was chained up and unable to move her entire childhood so her legs don't work. I have no idea how no one caught this in the concept stage.

The absolute worst part is how there is a cowgirl concept that's infinitely better that we'll never get.
>>
>>5570242

You're really overthinking it. It's just armor. It's a flying hoverudder. Like a Ball from Gundam. There's no intended implication that she can't walk. Heck, she even gets armored shoes/shins for when she's out of the udder.
>>
>>5570242
That IS good. Is that official?

In Vitulus' defence, at least she does come with actual legs (and even alternate armoured legs) for when she's not in her floaty gun chair.

Personally, I love my Baby Razz, Janis, but that's partially because her alternate faces and general "80s rocker" motif just hits my funny bone in just the right way.

Her armor/weapons are kinda complex as, well, armor and weapons, but as instruments for a Shinki/1:12 band, she more than pays for her herself IMHO.

magaki ryohta did design a cow type. story was she was modified off a ianeira type, and reworked to have extremely long battery life, plus being able to recharge other shinkis. she was a one-off piece made as an "event companion" by magic market. the mods made her incompatible with most equipment, unfortunately.

apparently her AI changed from the default ianeira program to a more placid persona on it's own, boggling the engineers.

also the "brown cow" colors posted above were a color variation. the style magaki originally posted was this holstein pattern. name was "limnoreia" or some permutation thereupon, given the L/R shenanigans when you try to romanize shit.

he also designed a "light armor" shinki derived from euk. key feature was a bigass rifle. name was "Speio". pic in a minute.
also did a camel, but she had no gear designed with her.

Eh, not exactly. We have an abundance of Vinyl talk too, with DDs, Picco/Pure Neemo, and Pullips. Assault Lily bodies are pretty much the same as Picco Neemos, with the newer AL bodies being better at posing.

If you want to talk about clothes, you could do so either here or the bjd thread, but we're pretty flexible in what does and does not fit. Scale accessories and whatnot would probably be better directed here.

I use photoshop, but I've been using it for more than 20 years. There's lots of hacks and tricks I've learned for making comics with it, and I wouldn't recommend it as a starter program. It's just not designed for comic making.

If you're going into it cold, I'd recommend GIMP to process the photos, and maybe something like manga studio for the paneling and text, but I don't know if that's free.

Finally finished the Busou Shinki anime. It was awright. Perhaps not the best series ever but it was good fun and a lot better than I expected. Plenty of cute robots doing cute things, which is always good. It certainly made me want to buy more Shinkis, so...mission accomplished? A pity the main 4 are so expensive on the aftermarket, because now I want them.

Also, Tamami and Potchi a besto.

Are the flower sisters (Juvisy and Zyrdarya) any good? They seem to go for pretty cheap on Mandy...
>>
What are some entry level/cheap Shinkis? I feel the need to have at least one for the sake of sakes.
>>
>>5573783
Don't buy one just to buy one. Find one you like, cry because it's expensive, then buy it anyway. You'll like your little robot girl much better if you didn't get her just because she's affordable.
>>
>>5573791
Thanks for the no help, then.
>>
>>5573783
There are a few fairly affordable Shinkis, mostly older ones or smaller, less heavily armed ones. Benio and Xiphos are quite cheap and well armed but not as cute as some of the others. Ironically, the limited edition versions of Maochao and Howling are quite cheap at the moment, though they don't come with the same armour as their normal counterparts.

Check on Mandarake and look to see which ones you like the look of for a good price.

I know very little about the boatgirls, but Unicorn has so many accessories, it's awesome. I have no problems with her, and her pricepoint wasn't bad. My only gripe is a dumb one-- too many small parts to lose.

>>5573763
I got a Zyrdarya recently from Mandy and she's got a lot of fun shit. However, she had the stickiness some plastics get from storing too long-- mostly on the petal blades. The dish soap soak and rinse in the guide worked for that.

Gourai re-release just got here from Nippon-yassan. It's a straight re-release and uses the same skirt as the original for those curious.

Also, this is the one I panic-bought when amiami sold out in minutes, so I have a second one on the way. Tempted to put on some sort of contest to give it away here, but I feel like anyone participating in a FAG painting contest would already have Gourai. What do you guys think?

I didn't get the original, so I'm not a hundred percent sure if this is what you mean, but the PC runner that has all the balls for the ball and socket joints is made of the flexible, almost rubbery plastic. All other runners are hard plastic.

Gourai is the only FAG I don't have yet, haha. I didn't get to finish painting blue Materia yet either, and some parts I did work on need to be redone. Pink needs to be painted too, but school, family, work, and derpiness from seizures are causing delays.

>I have a Stylet kit sitting on my desk begging to be built.

If you expanded it to other small robot waifu repaints or customizations, it could pave the way for getting other people into the line. It's your contest, anon. Ultimately, you call the shots. I personally think it would be really fun to see what others do with theirs.

Are the eyes on the FAG kits decals or are they pre-printed? Or are they on a separate white piece that goes behind the faceplate (like the Mega Man kit)?

I ask because I was considering doing a delicious brown FAG (at least, once my modelling backlog goes down a bit) and wondered if I'd need to repaint the eyes. Not that that would be a huge problem but it would be worth considering.
>>
>>5579315
They come prepainted, but come with spare decals in case you prefer a different expression or eye direction.

That is an absolutely ridiculous price. You want this one. It'll be as close to the one from the anime that you can get. http://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1040879319&ref=list

You have to clean it up afterwards with rubbing alcohol and a q-tip.

I did, yo. I think my markers might be a little whack, I kinda left them in a spot where they get direct sunlight for extended periods of time.

Use a technical pen with a 0.1 tip. Won't cost more than a dollar.
