Figure Reviews

A page has been added that will link to all the figure review posts that I make.

My current goal is to post one review a week if time permits, usually on a Saturday or Sunday. Hopefully I’ll be able to stick to this plan until I go through all the figures I own.

Lineark White-Glint 1/72 Scale Model

Picked up a White Glint model by Kotobukiya. It’s from the Armored Core game series and is featured on the cover of the PS3 game Armored Core: For Answer.

As you can see, the model kit has quite a number of pieces (350 to be exact). It doesn’t require glue or paint, which I now actually prefer after building model aircraft in my childhood. The finished model can transform between normal and flying mode, and has 30 movable points.

Hopefully I’ll be able to set aside some time next weekend to build it!

Noblesse Oblige 1/72 Fine Scale Model Kit

Noblesse Oblige from the Armored Core series. The only one I played was Armored Core: For Answer on the PS3, which I enjoyed immensely. I actually prefer the more realistic physics and customization as opposed to Gundams.
