Berserk Collectibles Show Us Some Berserk/Manga Disscussion

[Ryokosama]

I know I've mentioned this multiple times, but as more people are picking up expensive custom head sculpts, I wanted to mention it again.

I just saw these photos in a group on Facebook. The same thing happened to mine, but not nearly as extreme as this. For those who haven't already, please consider soaking your Threezero Guts capes to remove the excess dye or at the very least, putting tape or some sort of barrier between the sculpt and the cape. This is now maybe the 10th time I've seen someone's 3Z Guts sculpt get stained.

Sorry to keep mentioning, but it would be horrible to see this happen to someone's expensive custom sculpt and would be much harder to remove from a custom than it is from the 3Z sculpt.

Damn. The cloak strikes again

Looks like I got some staining. Any recommendations on how to clean it off the sculpt if that is at all possible? Thanks!

Sorry to hear that!

I was recommended 10% benozolyl peroxide acne cream to remove it.

If I remember correctly, I used a toothpick to apply a small amount to the stained areas in the morning and let it sit for the day, then cleaned it off and reapplied at night. I had to repeat the process daily for about three weeks (which was a lot of work considering I haven't used the sculpt since!). The problem with Guts is he does have some dark tinting on his skin, so the cream did lighten those areas a bit, which it wouldn't have done were he unpainted plastic. I probably did a few too many applications or left it on too long on a few occasions. I also wouldn't recommend doing this near the brand, as the cream did fade away the corner of his brand. Before and after pics below.

I asked threezero if they will be going to NYC anime in August and got this reply, kind of hard to tell if it's a yes or a no, any ideas lol?

I think they think you asked them on a date

 

[Solidus]

The NY cons haven't even began

 

[Star Zen]

for a chance at that Deluxe Griffith? I just might want to lmao

The NY cons haven't even began

That's what I'm saying I might ask them again to clarify, I really want to see if I have a chance to buy something from there in person sense Spike or Griffith should be out around that time I think

 

[Star Zen]

Hit them up again for more clarification: They actually will be at Anime con in NYC August ! perfect, I'll be picking up Kakashi there, maybe even some others if they release them by then. Hopefully even Griffith

 

[Solidus]

That's great. I wonder if they'll be dropping by NYCC as well

I received my 1/6 Prime 1 Legacy Arts Guts statue a couple of days ago courtesy of Sugotoys in Australia. He's ******* awesome, so glad I went ahead. I keep walking over to look at it up close. FINALLY my actual first Berserk merch, after wanting something for like...decades hah. I remember looking at the Art Of War statues back in the day and desperately wanting one. And after wanting the threezero figures that were unavailable at the time, but then deciding to pass on them because of the QC issues and because I still couldn't get the limited edition Berserker armour one. This really feels like a 'grail' to me and the best singular Berserk piece I could've gotten.

that said I'd love to get the Griffith as well to go with him, as they're designed to complement one another as in the illustration, but... at this stage it scares me a little preordering $1300+ statues that give a release timeframe, that might just unexpectedly drop several months sooner -

because I can't believe that this one released almost a year earlier than expected - how does that even happen? hah. If anything I expected a delay. And as far as I know it's unheard of for a Prime 1 piece to drop early? But it's my first statue so I dunno! Just had to suddenly pony up the other 1000 AU bucks for it, after having him preordered. Not complaining otherwise though; it's so cool to already have him and not a year from now. Here's some quick phone pics after unboxing, I needa get lights and take some better pictures

A question guys, has anyone preordered 1/6 Guts7.0 zhiwei_hao's head? I read such good reviews of his heads on this forum that when version 7.0 came out I decided to preorder it. Since I made the payment a month ago I have not heard any answer from him again, even though the head was planned for the end of June. Does anyone have any news about him?

Did you message Zhiwei to ask him?

Did you message Zhiwei to ask him?

This month I asked him 3 times just how he was doing, no answer.

Well when I ordered the horse from him it took some time, it was about 2 weeks-ish of no communication really - I'd bet he's just a bit overwhelmed or busy.

He did delivered it a month or so late from the projected date but it did come. Just Remember PayPal's G&S policy lasts for a few months so if something does go south you should definitely still have the time to get your money back, but I doubt it will come to that, best of luck getting answers though I'm sure they will come

Ok…my buddy who’s currently at SDCC with his own booth set up paid a visit over at the InArt exhibit. He asked Viper, the lead artist of InArt, if he was interested in Berserk.

According to my buddy, he said Viper, who happens to be an anime fan, his eyes lit up like a Christmas tree (my friends description, not mine ), then proceeded to show the armor from the Nazgûl figure on display, which is made of die cast…and Viper said this is practice in preparation for their Guts in berserker armor.


HOLY ECLIPSE…

Well first things first, holy **** if that actually happens (in 1/6 scale). But did Viper talk about CSM at all? We've had rumors that they're going to be 1/12 but Inart on social/emails says they'll be 1/6. Quite a mess.

Forgive my ignorance, what is CSM?


EDIT- DOH! Chainsaw Man!

Sorry my friend didn’t ask him about that.

Yes. YES it would.

I think some hype music is in order…
