[TALK] S.I.C. Thread Part Deux

[dchoc]

So how does the legs get changed to CJX?

Haven't seen any new pictures yet... We know that the chest splits.

Got a question. For those of you who have the SIC Den-O Wing exclusive. How is it? Any gotchas? I was just thinking about that figure in comparison with the SIC Armed Hibiki (Warring States version). Thanks a bunch. :thumbs:


BTW, has anybody come across any SIC review sites?

Gamu-Toys.info has the best photos for SICs, but he has skipped a handful of releases.

Wing Form is nice to look at, but on mine the left wing can't really stay up anymore. And the wings themselves have a tendancy to fall off the back since it's only two pegs that fit into two holes in the back. Overall it's a beautiful display piece. Probably my favorite SIC.

Same to me. Almost had a heart attack when the wings fell from the shelf.

Hm, let me strike up a discussion. When you guys buy SICs. Do you examine the piece inside the box carefully before buying? Like checking for painting errors, lose parts(by shaking) and stuff like that? I should really start reminding myself to be much more critical about examining it when I buy. Since my Dark Kiva's right hand's silver parts weren't painted. But I guess I'll take him as a Kyle's Edition Dark Kiva.

I buy from a middleman or from the online retailer so I don't have the luxury of examining the figure before buying it. I wish I had that ability, but, oh well, that's life. :laugh:

I also purchase my SICs online, so I lack the luxury of checking box to box for the *right* one. That said, any paint defects my SICs have ever had are minor at best and generally extremely infrequent. Not to mention I'm into Gunplay, so I have plenty of paint to do spot correction.

 

[dchoc]

Gunplay - so you shoot your S.I.C figures? :laugh:

I know, you meant Gunpla.

 

[NotHyper]

Good ole early morning typos. Yeah, Gunpla, thanks for the correction.

 

[Oblivion]

Oh you're into gunpla too? I have like, 5-7 MG models to build, too bad school's around. I guess me and Musashi are the only ones around here who gets to examine their figures we are going to buy? Hm, does those acrylic paint work so well on the SIC? Do you use the airbrush or do you hand paint those defects instead? Oh, and I just noticed I used my name on the previous post. "Kyle" Awesomest name evar!
