so guys i wanted to know if anyone has expirience with the Front Mission Trade arts and play arts, aswell as with The Armored Core figures from few years ago.

I found some of em near my área and wanted to knoe if they were ok, or if teres any bad expirience with quality or easy-to-break situations?

bump for interest

Loose as fuck joints from what I recall.
>>
i think the Armored Core ones were supposed to be interchangeable with almost all of their parts

The Trading ats are small but good sculpted

Never saw the play arts

I have that figure. Joints are so loose the figure can only stand there with his arms at his sides. Even then he falls down occasionally.

Like others have said. Loose joints. I have that one, in the green color scheme.

I also have one of the chicken leg/tank ACs from that line. Joints are tighter, but BREAK. The plastic cannot handle to stress of part swapping.

I also have a few of the FM trade arts figs. Very poorly built, but nicely sculpted. Break easily, joints on them can be so tight that there's no moving them. To do so will twist them off. No experience with the play arts.

Me again. Also have the old Front Mission 3 figs. If you can find those on eBay for not terrible prices, get them. They are fantastic even after all these years. If the joint feels loose one one, just take the limb off for a day and the socket should tighten back up all on its own. I did this with my Zenislev's left arm.

Anyone have opinions on the model kits, or are they just fairly standard models?
>>
>>5416622
tiny intricate pieces... pain in the ass, but the result is worth it. I wouldn't suggest them to people new to modeling.

I never have problems with mine. All six figures I have are tight to the point of being stiff.
>>
>>5416612
thanks for the info, i have some of the old FM ones, they are indeed good, too bad the AC ones suck, they looked good
>>
>>5417372
There's a lot of issues with the AC figs... but in all honesty I'd still buy them all over again. They look great, good size, and if you're not fuckin' with them too often the joints and shit should be fine. I literally played with mine. they're in rough shape.
>>
>>5417877
the AC figure had alternative head-parts, or i am thinking of the Fron Mission ones?
>>
>>5419199
The one pictured in the OP did not, but others of the line did. My chicken leg/tank comes with two. All swapable from figure to figure.
>>

>aswell as with The Armored Core figures from few years ago
They were soft and the joint actuation was pretty awful.
