Hey Swallowtail. Thanks for sharing your Mk2 ver 2.0 with us.
Really consider painting the eyes, or inserting the provided foil transfer. I see that you've taken the time to marker in the panels. I commend you for not using black, either! It really looks gaudy. As for the SSI Bang doll, I have not yet procured two; the VOLKS company is only releasing it right now via it's Webstore, and they only ship EMS, which is very expensive, especially for such a big model. As a Five Star Stories mecha fan, the Bang is one of the principle MH that is very well loved by the model building community. I particularly own two resin Bang Dolls right now, and I'd love to own two more plastic variations of it. This Bang is a refreshing change from the S.A.V. model, which costs just about 5 times as much as this present kit. This seems to make no compromise on detail, and remains poseable unlike the SAV kit. It also takes on a sleeker proportion compared to SAV. It mirrors very much the older VOLKS Mechanical Moving (MM) kit, which I also own and built. I shared my built kit here on the forums some time ago, didn't I? In this same thread, I think? In any case, it goes without saying that I love the Bang Doll and that this plastic kit beats the MM for details, and beats the proportions of the SAV while being cheaper than both AND retaining the pose-ability of the MM kit. It's a definite winner for me. So when normal stores carry it, I'll be sure to get at least two copies. I also hope for a 'Square Shield' type Bang, which is very rare and difficult to come by - if you sought to find the older MM release. It's the same Bang with a different head mast and slightly different detailing - but most notably, the viel (meaning shield) that it carries is rectangular. On a side note, my decals came in. I can resume work on my Zaku 2! |
