Not Macross: Jointed Eva00

[KingNor]

I customised a cheap EVA00 i got from a friend using HLJ's ball and hinge joints.

Just did this more or less for my amusement and to see the kidns of loads the joints could handle. I'm liking this alot. Thought i'd share some images with you guys for entertainment.

It's still pretty rough, i inted to puty and molde some more black into the cut out joint areas to round out the body.

That\'s nice. Reminds me of the REVOLTECH figs that are coming out soon.

Since it's not macross, this thread goes in the Other Anime section...

You mods do a great job so I'm definitely not complaining, but personally I think things like this are much better left in the model or toy customizing thread. I just think it would get more of the "proper" attention in the model section.

That looks very cool, are you using a toy or one of the model kits for this? If I remember, there were some larger toys with great accessories and pretty good articulation and then there were some smaller cheaper toys with almost no articulation. I'm intereseted to see it finished up. It looks like you are off to a great start.

Its one of the toys with lots of articulation already, the arms i didn't touch, they are stock. the legs are the parts i edited. Lots of extra joints.

This is one of the ones that came with lots of accessories, but i don't have any, all i have is a sniper rifel thats missing it's scope. My friend basicly gave it to me for free.

Hi KingNor,

Cool custom. I like it.

A few questions:

1) Was the Bandai's SOC Eva?

2) Are HLJ's ball and hinge joints made from plastic or metal?

By the way, I like the pose with the pen

[bigkid24]

That looks like a Kaiyodo Eva. I doubt those ball joints would be able to support the metal of an SOC.

The last EVA pic looks like it's about to Pee itself . Nice joint custom KN!

[Rocket Punch]

Ha! Cool!

You should pose the Zero in mid-dance like in Episode 9: Both of You, Dance Like You Want to Win!

Great job so far I wasnt familiar with this type of mech thing but it looks good non the less. Those are the same joints I use for my customs and they can hold quite a lot of weight.

I just got back from Japan with a sack load of them and other joint type parts.

Someone asked what they were made of well its nylon impregnated plastic and they come in various sizes.
