Freaked Out
got these cute little critters, look so tiny against this beast, hehe
I think displaying it in "naked" mode looks more badass than with the fairings in place!
i know! there was no mention of the extras on there like the one that came out in 2010! so im quite lucky, hehe
So some of you guys have had this bad boy for about a year now.
Any signs of degradation in the rubber seat or Kaneda's outfit?
Anyone actually leave him in a riding pose for an extended amount of time? I think he looks best that way but I'm worried about long-term effects.
Thanks!!
I dug up my Kaneda the other day, to make some more pictures, but, I put it back into the box pretty fast. Don't see any great pictures in the figure by itself. The neck is just too long IMO. Looking for a solution, I remembered you transition GB, but, looking at your pictures, I'm not sure that the operation would solve the problem?Okay, so here is Kaneda ported over to a slim TrueType. I have to say overall the new body fits the outfit better and I think it would make a good alternative if you have one handy.
But not such a difference that I would spend an extra $60-$70 (the going eBay rate) to get one.
The biggest difference is that the pants fit better and don't look as baggy. But the downside is the pants don't close quite as well at the zipper.
Also, to really make it work you'd need to swap around wrist joints and necks, but overall I think it would be doable.
And here's a few lights of the bike w/o any lights on, still looks impressive on the shelf
Got the TT body slim today.
Had to sculpt the feets they were too big for kaneda's boot (maybe i could have used more force but didnt want to damage the boots), made the holes in the kaneda's hands a little bigger with a screwdriver to fit hot toys pegs.
Had to open medicom neck to put the HT neck joint to the body.
Those rubber parts hiding the screws on each bodies are a pain in the ass to remove.
Definitly looks better.
Both my bike and Kaneda are still in the same perfection condition as the day I took them out of their boxes. That reminds me, I need to use my extra decals/cowlings set one of these days.
Don't know about the long term effects of Kaneda sitting on the bike.
I'd be more worried about the outfit interacting with the rubber of the bikes seat. I have a feeling anything placed up against that seat could cause deterioration.
Hello Alice,
If anyone selling his Tetsuo let me know.
Ami Ami had it 50% off just a few weeks ago and it's still 50% off on Amazon Japan....if you want him now is the time to get him!
around $120 shipped I'd say he's over priced for what you get. But still a cool figure and necessary to complete the set.
Can admit to you. With the excpetion of the Bike the figures from Medi are not woth the price. Feels more like 50
