jenius Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I'm playing with my DMZs tonight. Thought I'd share a pic: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gakken85 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Awesome. That Coffin is a really cool addition to a display. Does it come with that background area? Found this picture online tonight: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Awesome. That Coffin is a really cool addition to a display. Does it come with that background area? No, the background was sold with the Material Version of the DMZ 1/18 at a convention in Japan. It's really sweet although a little small. I was just goofing around and put the Jijirium capsule on it and that's when I realized the display seems to be meant for this exact scene. I watched episode 1 and pulled out DMZ-06 and it's a near perfect fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrinG Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 JENIUS -- THAT IS AN AWESOME PIC!!! Ha! Great! I would make the anymoon logo a lot larger - that photo is going to get all over the web. Nice work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Thanks Darrin, I watched ep1 last night and realize there are a couple tiny inaccuracies so I'll probably re-shoot it tonight. In the meantime, did you check out this auction: https://www.rinkya.com/en/auction-b145746502 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gakken85 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 It's a dark pruple. The Brutish dog is more of a pink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Neat, let me know if you get tired of it, I haven't been able to convince myself to buy one yet but at the same time I wouldn't mind doing a comparison to the DMZ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gakken85 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 It looks good on the shelf, and my lady friend thanks it's pretty so there is that.. haha. But I have two V1's now with the investigation dog, which is a lot! haha. I might be up for a trade or something at some point for sure.

Hoptimus Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Oh those look nice!!! I am still mad I did not grab the last big rush of Votoms kits from a few years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrinG Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 My heart (and wallet) jumped when when I saw that Bloodsucker photo - I thought it was going to be a new 1/8 model. Thankfully its not - I do not want to add anything to my want list. I just want 1 1/8 Turbo Custom, Chirico and Vanilla figures. Fyana and Cocanna would be OK but not a must. Jenius - We're not modelers - YET. But these would be fun to look forward to when we are someday. I will watch to see if more 1/8 stuff pops up on Yahoo Auctions if they are re-releasing some items... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoptimus Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I think a 1/18 would be a fun scale for something like HG Vot Play if you will... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
