So the Grey Polynians are being shipped out. Seems that Amiami has sent out request and HLJ is running a bit behind.
And remember all future Polynians will not have panel lines, now lets keep the conversations civil.
Release Schedule:
June
>Shamrock (Grey Flesh Version)
>Clover (Grey Flesh Version)
July:
>Mel Karon
August-October
>None
November:
>Emile
>Yume (Re-issue/Fixed Version)
Last thread >>5707375
Soon I'll have my expensive, tiny, grey plastic sex-robot. What a time to be alive.
Are polynian compatible with little armory hands and rifles?
Robotraps with guns are my fetish
More like Ass-pained Crybaby Daibadi Crucifiction Squadron Edition.
>>5752747
Sadlsy no, they aren't. As cool as that sounds, the pegs for the Polynians are bigger than the ones from the Little Armory set. I know that the pic is comparing with an Assault Lily but those share the peg sizes with figma. Apologies for the bad lighting.
>>5752853
If i buy hobby joints and I sand the peg until it fits, would it be prone to breaking? I got a lot of hobby equipment, so if a peg broke inside a hand it wouldn't be that bad.
>>get payment request yesterday for gray Shamrock and Clover.
>>yen starts rising in value more as brexit sends ripples in the market.
>>Only pay ~$5 USD more than originally predicted months back.
>>still have Emil on PO.
Gonna be an agonizing 5months watching the exchange rate get worse.
The exchange rate getting even worse right before release pretty much convinced me to cancel my gray orders. Yes I know I could panel line it myself and add a gloss coat to get back the promo shot look but I simply don't want to for $47+ shipping a figure. Back when I ordered it was $40 + shipping and they are such a barebones release already, plus I have no clue whether these grays fixed all the joint tolerance issues they ran into with Yume or not.
>>5752892
Breakage is possible since it will be real thin in order to fit the gloves but its worth a shot if it breaking isn't a big deal to you. You would just have to sand one side to fit into the LA hands and that would let them hold the guns.
>>5752929
nice!
The other thing I had in mind was to 3d print fixed joints, like the ones that came with the little armory gloves, but with different peg widths. But I'm not sure of what would be more sturdy
>>5752936
That could work if you plan on having them in fixed poses and such. I dont think they'd need to be that strong since once you put them on they'll just be in that one position and not be moving like the fully articulated ones that figmas and other figures have.
>>5752892
Alternatively, if the Little Armory hands are big enough, you can widen the peg hole with a 3mm drill.
I just noticed that Mel has a big cylindrical tumor protruding from her back, and it doesn't appear to be removable. Like, it's in all of the promo photos, I just never noticed it. That's somewhat offputting.
It's present on the GK as well, but it's much smaller and less obtrusive there.
Greys are looking nice, though some lining would help. Still I would have gotten one if I had the dough.
Another shot of Shamrock.
>>5753208
That's just where the penis goes in her.
>>5753294
>I expected the black in her white hair to be a LOT cleaner and lined up with the sculpt.
Good lord, they didn't even get close. There shouldn't be that much white visible in the raised up area meant to be painted black on >>5753215 more disappointed by the minute. The original Clover wasn't perfect either but it was better than this and had more paint apps. How can you fuck up this bad when you literally have a handful of things to do right? Is their factory incompetent?
Anyone else planning to paint their gray clover's hair dark like gray Shamrock's?
>>5753208
Yume also has one. It's for back-mounted accessories.
>>5753215
Looks like a prototype now.
>>5753435
I meant to say that I'm liking the design of grey Shamrock. And I agree, these dont seem like figures that are worth upwards of 5k especially without the panel lining that was meant to help them stand out a bit more.
>>5753519
>>5753521
>>5753558
>>5753561
Also, I can only wait to see how bad the Pinkle prototype is affected by the loss of panel lines. I still might order seeing as how she was one of the few others that I'm interested in.
>>5753519
>>5753521
>>5753558
>>5753561
Aawwww yeah.
Bumping with some fanart I found.
>>5752911
I cancelled mine, too. It may be easy enough to just line the panels yourself but for how expensive it is for what was already such a barebones figure, I feel I shouldn't have to.
>>5752184
I preordered the new shamrock from hlj over a month ago, but despite the product being listed as low in stock i still haven't been charged, and my order is still being processed.
Should I be concerned? I've never preordered from hlj before so I'm a bit uncertain.
>>5755031
They've been up for preorder for probably 5 months or so. And people had issues getting their Yume from HLJ....she got backordered for weeks for some.
Considering you preordered so late, I'd guess you're probably on the low end of the list for shipping out. Hate to say it, but don't be surprised if you get a "backstocked" or your order is processing for awhile.
>>5755035
I just checked my emails, and according to that i ordered her on the 11th of March, over three months ago. I'm really bad with keeping track of time so i guessed conservatively.
Am i still going to be backstocked?
>>5755038
That's pretty cute, I've heard that there's a slight colour difference between the grey versions of clover and shamrock, is that true?
>>5755031
Does it show up in your account as "Order is being processed"? Have you checked your email to see if they sent the payment request? That may be it and you just have to pay from the link in the email if not then it might be like what >>5755035 said. I had to wait about a week/week and a half for my Yume as she was immediately put into "Backordered".
But, Seeing as how they were still open for orders up till their release and are are still "low stock" you might just end up getting the payment request later today (Saturday). I'm pretty sure you'll get yours since your order is processing and not "backordered"/"discontinued" or anything.
>>5755038
Kinda digging that Shamrock body swapping.
>>5755052
No payment request, but the order is processing. I guess I'll just wait a few days and hopefully it'll work out.
>>5755059
Yeah, you may have to wait a bit. I'd say hopefully by later on today you should get you payment request since its in processing and since you did order a bit later on after PO opened.
>>5755062
Does it matter that it's being shipped to australia?
New info on Pinkle and the Motoroids. Seems like they're working on the painted prototype to show off as well as details and gimmicks.
>>5755064
I don'd think so, it shouldn't anyway i think. HLJ works by sending out request in an order somewhat like "first orders in, first orders out" and such. So it kinda helps to PO something soon on there in order to get it faster when it releases. As long as they still have stock, listed as In Stock or Low Stock, you'll be fine, plus your order is peing processed so all you're waiting for is the email for payment.
>>5755073
Except that's wrong.
I ordered the first day before they sold out along with Yume awhile ago. HLJ is just naturally slow with everything.
Even more so with these figures. I think my Yume took almost 2 weeks for a payment request and that's ordering her first in line.
>>5755038
I already own normal Shamrock, and am mighty tempted to get the alt color. White and Black or Pink and Grey just go too well together.
Plus, alt body for Emil.
Anyone can put white Clover's hair on Yume?
>>5755073
Thanks, that's reassuring. This is my first figure that wasn't mass produced and hung on pegs in the toy aisle. Shamrock is so cute, she's a qt robutt with a package. I love it.
>>5755078
Oh, well thanks for correcting me. I ended up ordering my Yume the last time she opened for orders and went with the assumption that I had to wait for ordering her near release. And yeah I agree that HLJ is slow with things like this but its where I do my shopping. Plus the private warehouse is great too.
>>5755086
You mean he?
I love how cute he is though, yeah. Somehow works well next to any of my other toys.
>>5755038
Wait, the hair is removable?
Just an update fellow polynons, I received my ems tracking number from amiami just minutes ago so should be here in a few days. A little info about my order, I preordered a month ago first time with amiami. Hopefully others are getting their shipment notifications.
>>5755095
Yeah i know it's supposed to be he, I'm just pretending Shamrock is female so i can have a transgender figure. I've never seen a one, i guess i want something that's relateable or whatever.
>>5755097
Yeah. I plan on giving my original Clover grey Clover's hair and original Shamrock's ear barrettes to make an all-white catgirl.
...and maybe give her his bulge, too. Maybe.
>>5755101
>I'm just pretending Shamrock is female so i can have a transgender figure.
Holy shit kill yourself, degenerate.
>>5755374
What are you doing anon. Why do you care?
>>5755101
I thought you were just doing that thing people do of "It's not gay, that's just a girl with a dick!", but if it ain't that, then I got no problem.
>>5755579
Sexuality is weird man, everyone worries about it so much, but after a certain point i realised it doesn't matter. Why does it matter what a person is attracted to? As long as they aren't hurting anyone who cares. Dicks are great, but so are boobs, butts, and puss.
>>5753561
This looks really nice, but at the risk of enraging the BUY DAIBADI OR ELSE autist, it also looks like something that really needs panel lines on the painted version.
>>5755086
Literally just received the payment request. Awesome.
Breaking news guys, I just got my payment request from HLJ for grey clover and shamrock and I placed my order just last month so other anons should be getting their payment request pretty soon
>>5755086
>>5755760
Good for you anon!
Another latecomer. Got mine a few minutes ago.
>>5755760
same, im so hype.
Ordered at low stock this morning and got my payment request in 4ish hours
so now that people are getting their payment requests for HLJ. How many of you are going to wait and see if the Yen to whatever will improve on Monday or Tuesday instead of paying at the rate right now?
I just notice the preorder prices from HLJ was ¥4,845 for Polynian FMM Clover (Gray Flesh).
Guess they did give a small discount for those that preodered earlier.
>>5756148
Yeah they gave their discount for the PO's of the Greys and Mel but didn't give one to Emil. I was curious too about how some might wait to see if the dollar would improve but I'm sure people will pay now in order to get their dark skinned robots sooner.
My order has been shipped and should be here in a few days. While they are on their way, I was wondering what would you guys recommend I use for filling out the missing panel lines? Friend says to just use a fine tip marker but I I want to hear other options.
>>5756237
Gundam marker and/or real touch markers
>people bitch about price for greys with no panel lining
>just paid $80 for it without blinking
man you guys are too used to having a strong dollar. try living in a weak dollar country and see what buying toys is like.
be glad you're not into MoMo's like I am. What is it about shitty built but cool toys fml.
>>5755374
Holy shit, kill yourself before you vote for Trump.
>>5756256
pigging backing off this comment, it's really easy to panel line just see youtube tutorials
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exT3VwzWpu8
literally run the tip through the line and rub off excess. bam done. Im going to try white then an aqua over top to see if it's pretty.
>>5756314
Far better than the alternative, LOL.
But really, shut up. This is /toy/ not your twitter account.
>>5756237
a fine tip marker works fine too, but after it drys ,it will be semi glossy. it's not that noticeable but you will be able to see it with close ups.
But they are cheap and you can just get purple and grey and you'll be all set.
Do not use black, it will be too dark
You can even just use a lead pencil (mechanical pencil). if it rubs off just re pencil it.
>>5756312
actually it was $90.
>>5756438
94.
>>5756495
Different dollars mate we're not all fucking americans.
>>5756495
They both came to total 94 dollars without shipping to me.
I sent them to the warehouse so I can bundle them for next months.
>>5756349
>>Far better than the alternative,
This is what farteaters actually believe
>>5756514
>They both came to
Aaah, I only got one of them
Just got my shipping notice from HLJ, so excited.
Nothing like a delivery date or tracking though.
>>5758811
Got mine a few days ago. Gray Shamrock and Clover are already at customs. So excited for my first Polynians!
>>5756527
>A femnazi criminal guilty of compromising national security is better than "wahh he said mean things"
>>5759044
Same here, would have gotten it today though this was the first time a toy was sent to customs, at first I panicked thinking I had finally ordered something too lewd
> SAL: 10-30 business days (varies greatly by country)
well fuck I don't even remember selecting shipping. Ah well, I'll get them eventually.
>>5759721
>SAL
Oh boy. You'll see it in 2-6 months, or not at all, and when you do it'll probably be torn in half and someone will have shit in it.
>>5759735
You must live in some shitty part of a country because I've never had problems with SAL and they usually get to me between a week or two unless it a holiday.
>>5759735
I've never used SAL myself because I'm impatient but is it really that bad?
>>5759764
It varies wildly.
>>5759764
Varies immensely, leaning towards the "pure shit" spectrum most often. Expect your package to look like a gorilla played football with it, if you get it at all.
>>5759330
>>femanazi
Cuck detected
>>5759790
what about registered sal?
>>5759799
>>5759938
The condition an SAL arrives in from Japan is 100% due to your local post office. Japan post takes care of their parcels. Once it gets on the plane and gets unloaded by your airport is when any kind of shit happens. Lost? Your post. Run over by a truck? Your post. MIA for 3 months? Your post.
So the big SAL question is - do you trust your post office?
I live in miami and my SAL packages always arrive in pristine condition...
Anyway, where can I buy one these? I'm new to them but i'm intrigued
>>5755101
/toy/ is Christian board
Didn't I tell you to git gone a few month ago
>>5755101
So a piece of plastic with no origins or history you like thinking is transgender because you are transgender and somehow you relate to transgender plastic?
I bet you think you are a girl too
>>5761231
Amiami, HLJ, Hobbysearch, etc.
>>5761231
how long does it usually take?
Here's a question.
What (if any) would be the problem of gluing this piece to the lower torso? All it really does is stabilize the joint, and with it glued in place, it seems it would make that stability stronger.
It doesn't seem like it would hamper any movement or range of motion.
>>5761314
The last SAL order I made shipped on May 29, arrived June 16
I bought two of the Grey Clovers from amiami. Waiting for them to be shipped because I have one other pending item.
However, I've already sold my other Polynian figures, so I was wondering if anyone would like to buy one (or both) brand new at a discount?
>>5761455
How much of a discount are we talking here?
>>5761502
I was thinking like $45 per, which includes shipping.
>>5761527
Which ones are they?
>>5761531
It's the Grey version of Clover.
>>5761418
that's not so bad. thanks!
>>5761710
So?
The only other one I have is Shamrock and he has the exact same design. Would be no issues there.
And it looks like the other have their own unique pieces, so they wouldn't be a problem should I get more.
>>5761536
Brag, I will take it
>>5762159
Pls go
>>5761252
>>5761250
You're playing with gay robot femboys with realistic bulges in a thread wherein preggo mods of them have been posted and revered and you're trying to shit on someone else for their life choices?
>>5762274
Speaking of preggo mods...
Gray Clover and Shamrock came in today, my first Polynians. Joints are firm yet smooth, though Cliver's front hair-piece is kinda loose. Might be just mine, we'll see. The lack of panel-lining doesn't bother me, kinda like it, honestly.
1/2
>>5762430
2/2
Shamrock is so goddamn cute! Forget Bridget, everyone's gay for Shamrock. Now I need to get some balloons to cut up...
>>5762435
Clover looks beautiful! I'm still waiting on shitty customs to clear my porn bot
>>5762513
Give it a rest whiny tart.
While I wait for Clover I decided to draw Shamrock. Hopefully mine will ship soon...
>>5762435
hahaha, the pose on the front of the box. <3
Any chance grays will go back in stock or am I fucked?
They here.
Fucking excite.
>>5762768
I tend to order two. Gonna try and add line work myself on these.
Anyone have thoughts on what colours to use? I'm gonna do one with my favorite grey gundam marker first, but I've got more then that.
>>5761455
I'll take one from you contact me at [email protected]
>>5762821
Black would be nice. Honestly, the originals had a bit too much pink in parts, which was a bit sloppy, so even if you go over them in pencil, as long as you stay in the lines, you'll be okay.
>>5762850
I emailed you.
I'm not the finest at lining, but here's how the first go turned out. I'll post the backs to. Thoughts welcomed. Gonna clean up the lines a bit later.
>>5763014
And the back.
>>5763015
use a cottonswab to remove excess. A mechanical pencil will make that better. Your first attempt is shit.
Just got my gray Shamrock today; he's cute as fuck, but he's got panel lines on his feet. There isn't any anywhere else on his body.
They're kind of sloppy, and they don't even go all way up to the ankle joint. They stop like 3mm before the joint. Anyone else have this?
>>5763698
Son of a bitch; I promise it wasn't sideways when I uploaded it.
>>5763014
JUST
>>5763014
>I'm not the finest at lining
you don't say.
>>5763014
>>5763015
Thanks for a reference photo for what everyone shouldn't do when panel lining.
I got my Shamrock today.
Only issue is the legs are uneven, but it's a small problem.
Today I learned the Kotobukiya Frame Arms Weapon kits work with Polynian figs.
>>5764325
>Welcome to Silent Hill, I'll be your rape monster this evening
>>5764376
I really like my Shamrock. Can't wait until my Clover arrives.
>>5764419
I'd like to get one, but
>aftermarket lol $200
And now the only choice is the grey version, which is still costly given it's just straight, cheapo grey plastic with 0 paint and no accessories.
Even dear, sweet Shamrock has trouble keeping those fucking things on his head.
>>5764428
They're worth it.
>>5764431
Not for that price they're not. Maybe I'll nab the grey one, but I just want them to reprint the originals. I don't care if they drop the panel lining, they just LOOK better with a crisp, Stormtrooper white coloration.
>>5764443
>I understand your apprehensions, anon.
I don't mind spending a good amount on a figure either. But these things have no accessories and little paint. I just refuse to eat the cost for something like that as a late tax, when it doesn't come with jack shit or isn't some hugely popular character figure or something to really carry such a fat late tax.
>>5764451
I totally get you, mate.
>>5764451
They will probably get re-released again at some point anyway. Fuck paying rare aftermarket prices.
In terms of being barebones that's actually part of their charm. They are super expressive and fun to pose precisely because there isn't a bunch of overlapping parts and soft goods to worry about. You don't have to worry about shit breaking, popping off, getting scratched, chipped or cracked (soft goods on figma when bent too far like Pit's clothes).
More face parts would nice but you do technically get that. All the faces and hairs are interchangeable. So if you buy Clover and Shamrock you can interchange those two. Then as you buy more releases (especially ones that include 3+ face parts) you can get so much more out of the barebones Clover/Shamrock. Plus they are compatible with Frame Arms shit from Kotobukiya which lets you do some cool stuff too.
>>5764429
Fuck those cat ear things, I still don't know what to do with them. I refuse to glue them in because I wanna partswap, but I don't know if the old joint method will keep it in place.
>>5764366
That's awesome, are there any other kits/figures that are compatible?
>>5761252
Yup. That's the idea. I emphasize with robots too. It's illogical but comforting.
Anon i know this is bait, but I'm probably strange compared to other trannies in that i don't think of gender as anything more than a hypothetical construct. It's something people make up to make the world easier to understand or organise. Biological sex exists, but we've put a lot of arbitrary nonsense around it. I don't think of myself as strictly female, i just want to look and act a certain way, and for people to see me a certain way.
>>5764443
What does that have to do with anything?
A) The part in question is the same on both figures. Having it glued in place has no bearing on anything.
B) Not everybody has your sexual fetish, faggot.
Do you have ANY reading comprehension skills?
>>5764879
>In terms of being barebones that's actually part of their charm.
Extra hands, faceplates, hairplates, and something to do with those extra hands should definitely be included with each one.
>>5765140
rood
>>5765217
That's what the other releases are for bro. All the hair, hands and faces with Yume, Emir, Pinkle Grindy, etc will be compatible with Clover and Shamrock.
These are the "entry level nude body" so you can get an idea whether you like the line or not, then have a nude body to use with other characters if you wish.
How tall are these and could someone take a photo of any figure with the hand popped off but with the ball joint still in the wrist?
>>5766201
Yume is about 5 1/2 in. but with her hair "ribbon" she's about 6 1/2 give or take. As for the hand thing, here ya go. Other view here >>5752853
>>5766259
You are a scholar and a gentleman. Thanks man. Is that still a 3mm peg? When you move their hands around do you ever have any trouble with them popping off because the peg is that short?
>>5766304
Nope. I don't have any problems, they feel smooth yet firm and I haven't had them fall off. Oh and yeah they're 3mm pegs.
>>5766315
Thanks man. And thanks for not being a dick because I have no idea how I missed that picture at the top. It's been a long day.
>>5766320
Welcome man. And don't worry we all got our off days.
So, was the Shaneock being mpreg'd a mistranslation or is it canon?

Mistranslation but it stuck since an mpreg shota bot is something many people can get behind.

More info on Belmont. Seems like they're working on the gloves and want to try and show more at WonFes.
>>5767291
Clearer pic of the CG model
>>5767291
And heres Belmont for those who can't really remember who she is or for those who have recently joined us.
>>5767287
Your grey Shamrock appears to be missing one too.
>>5767300
Were the original Polynians just a bunch of Clovers and Shamrocks, or did the males and females vary in looks? If it was the former, then did the later Polynians with varying appearances (Yume, Mel, Emil, and Belmont) get their differing traits from cross-breeding with humans for generations?
>>5767315
Nah it was just on the other side. His joints are very tight, I even had a little trouble posing him.
>>5766724
These two lines looks very good together in my opinion
How big are these figures? I just saw new maid outfits on amiami and want to get them but they are for 1/6 figures. Will they fit?
>>5762274
Penis expert here. Their bulges aren't really realistic.
>>5767649
No. They're like, basically 5 inches or so. About the size of a Figma or Figuarts. Actually, probably a little smaller.
>>5767649
No, they're roughly 1/12. Picco Neemo clothes fit them, but they're weird in the shoulders. Sleeveless garments work better.
Okay guys. I was really hyped when these were announced, but I missed out on the first wave and have been watching from the shop window ever since.
I skipped the gray ones, and I have Mel on preorder, but looking at these recent pics and considering she was $45 when I bought her, and now she's $60 thanks to the exchange rate, I'm not sure I'm right for this line.
Can anyone convince me to stick with it? Are they really worth all that?
>>5767695
No. Even most pants or underwear won't fit them. Picco Neemo is bad advice. Stop trying to make people waste money spreading this rumor.
>>5767671
where did you get your penis degree mister smarty pants?
>>5762320
[nospoiler]Is there an imgur with these pics?[/ontoy]
>>5767318
Yeah the original Polynians were like that. After finding out love wins and all, they began to co exist and now years later we have Humans and Robots living in peace with advanced Polys like Mel, Yume, Emil and Belmont because of cross-breeding.
>>5767323
Please tell me you bought them that boat anon.
>>5767794
I have the twitter account name. Just search up -Sinoozaka-. There's more than polynians like shinkis and stuff. Pretty steamy.

>>5767300
If she comes with those hands, she would be the most awesome of their toys, seriously. The posability of the core design combined with individually articulated fingers would make her very expressive, and the fact she could swap her hands with any of the other toys would increase her utility and demand.
Imagine shamrock giving the finger to other toys. Literally.
>>5768207
Exactly what I was thinking. She's the only other Polynian I'm looking forward to beside Mel and Pinkle. She's a day one PO for me.
Welp, cancelled my last Polynian preorder in the face of failing exchange rates and lost details.
Goodbye /d/aibadi thread.
>>5768207
I'm doubting the articulation of those hands. Probably going to be all one piece.
>>5769102
Except the design, which is for articulated fingers has been posted.
Why do fucks like you have to be auto-contrarian when you've been shown evidence that you're wrong? Do you enjoy being made to look like a fool every time?

CAD student reporting.
Not >>5769102, but he seems correct. Looking at those renderings the fingers lack internal outlining of any joints, that is, there aren't any more wire frames to outline a jointed mechanism be it hinge, ball, etc. That isn't to say it's impossible, but it's rather complex for such small hands that aren't much bigger (seemingly) than a some MG gunpla's (I have a Rick Dom that had ball joints at the main knuckles and hinges at the second knuckles on each of the four fingers). But for all segments to be that articulated, highly unlikely given size constraints and cost for engineering. Remember that Daibadi is still a small company, so that level of complexity likely is too big a hassle to produce without it being flimsy as hell or having QC issues.
I wish it weren't so, but seems Belmonts hands are fixed posed.
>>5769317
Capping this to post and laugh in your face when you're proven wrong.
Just like that faggot who said Figma Vitruvian wasn't going to have extra arms and legs "because of muh enginering and muh cost"
Do you not get the fact that the fingers will most likely be molded in a bent position and the only articulation will be in the bottom knuckle closest to the hand? probably a rod that runs through the base of each finger attaching it to the hand. Just like That old Savage Dragon figure, several Hulk figures and a shitload of robots and Gundam kits. Shit. My gashapon Drossel figures have finger articulation and they're half the size of a Figma.
Nobody's talking about completely articulated finger joints, dipshit.

>Comparing daibadi and figma
Boy you're mad about a whole lot of nothing buddy. You're saying pretty much the same thing the other two people are, too. Articulation of the big hands, if any, is going to be extremely limited.
>>5769345
Okay then. Time will tell. Either way Belmont still looks badass.
>>5769364
>>Comparing daibadi and figma
You don't read very well do you, shitlord?
I didn't compare anything. I simply referred to another argument some chucklefuck was making. There was no comparison of the two.
Jesus you fucking dumbass cuntflap. How do you function on a daily basis when you're this fucking retarded?

Maybe have some water, anon. You might just be dehydrated.

>>5768207
pretty sure those CG pics show nothing that implies articulation. merely open hand parts and closed hand parts, which is what the other polynians came with.
Shamrock and Clover have their beach bodies ready, do you?
>>5774467
That bulge on Shamrock is showing through the suit..
>L-lewd
>>5774467
Now swap Shamrock and Clover chest so we can look at futa (or trans, pick your poison) robutts.
I know, hamhands, etc, but I just got my Clover today and her knee joint snapped as soon as I tried to move it. Is there something I can do?
>>5775884
Which Clover anon? New or old? Did it snap in half or is part of the joint stuck in the peg hole? Also if possible can you post some pics to see the damage? Maybe that could let is help you a bit better.
>>5775911
New one, I took some pictures for amiami to see if there was something they can do. As I pulled on the joint, gently, it slid off revealing the peg to be attached by a string. No idea how or why, this is the first time I've ever broken a figure (if it was even me).
>No regular Shamrock to even the odds
>>5775924
Ah, seems like the peg was made to small at the part that connects to the swivel. I had this problem with one of my figma hand joints (thankfully they come with extras). You could buy some hobby joints and switch out the joint with one of those or you could wait to see what Amiami says. This isn't your fault at least it doesnt appear to be your fault to me.
>>5775936
I leave you with this pic anon.
You guys should put their insane poseability to good use.
>>5775958
If amiami says "tough luck" I'll try pinning and gluing it I guess, I did just buy some new glue.
>>5761455
I'm interested, [email protected]
>>5775974
Just get the hobby base joints. They are pretty identical and affordable.
>>5775997
We'll see what amico says, but I bought a set of those anyway.
>>5775924
same thing happended to mine, and on the same joint, tried pining it but there is just not enough meterial on that particular peg and it will just snap again.
Luckily I had spare revoljoints lying around.
>>5775924
This happened with both my Clover and Shamrock, one of the pegs was solid and couldn't rotate at all, and the others is incredibly stiff. Just replaced them with the school girls joints since I replaced hers for white ones a while ago.
>>5776112
Pics?
Looks like the production samples of Mel are in. Seems she'll be out soon, hoping sometime in the middle of the month as I still need two other things befor I could ship her.
>>5776011
>Thank you for mailing us and sending us pictures.
>We are sorry to hear about the problem with your item. It looks to us like a factory defect, because this kind of figure would not probably break thi s way during shipping.
Then they asked for more details and pictures, so I think the odds are pretty good on their full support.
>>5766759
Sorry for taking ages to answer this. Yes I am interested in making a pregnant lower torso, male or female version but I have some problems using Shapeways that I will try to explain fully. But the tl;dr is money.
For the first pair of heels I made, I prototyped them on my lab's printer, they were ugly and messed up but the peg holes were good enough to tell me if my tolerances were right. From there I ordered them on Shapeways to check to see it the tolerances were maintained across switching materials. This seemed to work out but I found that the first batch was loser then I would have hoped. I adjusted the design but not before a few people had them.
Since then I have been working on improving my lab's printers and my methods to try to get them to produce acceptable results. I can produce things far cheaper and iterate on versions much more quickly then using Shapeways. The problem I have is that while I can prototype a part my self before sending it off to Shapeways if it is a big part or I don't get it right the first time it starts getting too expensive for me.
I am getting to the point were I am happy with what my printers are producing but I realize that they still have imperfections and horizontal striations that give the parts a look that some might not like.
What it comes down to is that if people really want stuff in the Shapeways materiel I think I can do that for some parts but for bigger and more complex stuff I don't think I can afford it right now.
To answer whether or not I could make a lower torso available on Shapeways I am not quite sure yet, but the torso is already the largest part and with with the additional volume of the baby bump I am not exactly hopeful but maybe.
>>5777241
It's THAN,
The word you are looking for is THAN, not THEN.
Jesus fucking Christ, how fucking old are you?
This is 2nd grade level grammar here, you illiterate shit-heap. You must be in your 20's and you can't even grasp a concept that most 7 year-olds have mastered.
The worst part of it is, you not only won't admit that you're ignorant, you'll try and weasel out of it with some half-assed excuse, or try and shift the focus off of yourself by calling me a grammar nazi. Instead of actually improving yourself, you'll remain willfully ignorant.
>>5777241
You can always design the torso to be hollow with walls thick enough to support the weight and tensions of it being handled with escape holes for the dust as small honeycombs in the concave areas where the joints are inserted. Then just put support walls in some spots for reinforcing the walls. That's the trick to shaving off the costs. More work, but worth the cash it saves.
I lack my own printer so I rely totally on Shapeways. Sculpteo is faster by comparison but more expensive, particularly for small orders (cool thing with them though is that a CAD file of multiple unconnected parts is counted as a single print unlike Shapeways).
>>5777301
Maybe he's not a native english speaker you sperg, chill the fuck out.
>>5777301
This is "You made a mistake, fuck you and admit I'm better than you!" /v/ tier.
This overreaction is priceless, so priceless that it has to be bait. Would cap if not, it's a shame.
>thinking about getting grey Shamrock
>hate the color but the design is nice
>might like it better in person
>but no panel lining
>now shit here in thread about more QC issues
>but if I don't get one they'll fucking vanish from existence and suddenly be like $200 fucking dollars like the superior white version
What do, /toy/.
>>5777454
Buy it and just resell it at the higher price later if you don't like it. You'll at least get all your money back.
>>5777301
can't decide if you're post is bait of if your just an idiot
either way here's your (You)
>>5777454
I'd say get. Panel lining doesn't seem too difficult to add, and if you really dislike it, you'll probably be able to resell pretty easily.
>>5777397
I haven't thought of doing an array of escape holes like that, thank you for that insight. It would probably look pretty cool to boot.
The lack of a part count of Sculpteo sounds nice, the price on Shapeways can get really messed up when you try to do something like a whole action figure. They offer putting a hard shell bag around the parts but it just as often cost more in plastic then you save in the part count. The best price I can get with a ton of parts is to put them on a sprue tree.
As an aside yeah I am very fortune to have access to printers like I do, even as shitty as they are, being able to throw time instead of money at the problem works well for me right now.

Goddamn right I'm better than you. You deliberately ignorant shit-dick.

i would of spelt it correct but than on the other hand thats boring, and aren't you just an anal retentive twat
>>5777583
>SJW
Not in this context. I don't know what you're trying to accomplish here, but people who use that adjective aren't as intellectually stumped as you are.
Well, I got a grey Clover in the mail today, I didn't realize how tiny she was, but those hips are definitely better in person so hell yeah.
Grey Shamrock is back in stock over at HLJ if anyone is interested in grabbing him and Clover and/or Mel.
>>5777870
Forgot pic.
So I got my Gray clover the other day, and I did a test panel lining with a .5 led pencil, and it looks passable, but I do want to make darker, more permanent lines. Any super fine point paint markers out there or any good option I could reasonably get?
