Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ Sucks to hear about the paint problems on the Itchi Pdmcb.
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ Don't quote me on this as my Japanese is as basic as it comes, I'm pretty sure he's corrected the problem for today's release and is saying he was aware of a paint problem on one or more of the figures.
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ In celebration of the Forest Festival, Atom released the NZambi version of Itchinesu along with the Fresh Fish Fusen
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ Are those GID or off-white vinyl? If it's GID I may have a heart attack...
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ Somebody better break out the defibrillator then.... Tis a beauty indeed.
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ I don't collect Atom A toys but I'm constantly impressed by what's been put out. Some of the toys are borderline bizarre but I'd much rather follow this thread then some of the hyped up bullshit that's being passed as toys these days.
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ The paint rub looks absolutely incredible, I can't imagine what it must look like glowing... These were a shop-drop, right? Kicking myself for not following the blog more closely.
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ ^His paint jobs are something to behold in the hand. Atom A is easily one of the best painters out there. I am looking forward to new sculpts as well. His stuff also helped to (finally) give me a much-overdue appreciation of RxH toys. The weirdness at first was off-putting to me, but I embraced it and am glad I did. The Sunshine Trooper is truly bizarre and the only one I really find disturbing, but the paint apps are so good you get over the shock quickly.
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ I don't think it was a shop-drop, but I may have misinterpreted the blog. Also check Psilo's post in the New RxH thread.
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ Truth be known... I have seen the original Itchy prototype & this head was made for a different body The GID pics should be hitting instagram today, I will check the usual suspects.
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ New Itchy Surtr version... as good as the Hyper Hobby 80k Fahrenheit Ama Sunshine?
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ Yep, i'd like an itchy at some point but i would prefer it with standard gloss paint . . . . i'm not sure about all these matt finish ones. Of course, i'd probably change my mind if i had one in-hand
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ ^One of the more unique paint apps I've seen in a while...but that is just par for the course with Atom A releases . They never cease to inspire.
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ That Sunshine Diver is the best I've seen. Atom is in my top 3 painter/sculptors.
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ I did not enter in time. But I am curious, which figure is the イッチネスSurtr? Or, does Atom A just decide among the 3 figures pictured?
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ The new lottery version Surtr Itchy is in the first two photos, the third shows the new release alongside the HyperHobby AMA Sunshine 80k (3rd release I believe) & the recent HyperHobby Itchinesu.
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ Thank you. Each one of them is beautiful, and the Sunshine's arm paint application is haunting.
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ ^ ^ ^ Very nice, my favorite version so far.
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ That last photo... Cheeky bugger, ain't he But in all seriousness, best version so far. I don't know why no one else thought to try a paint rub on such a highly textured figure. It looks amazing!
Re: proper Atom A. Armwrestler/Amaresura thread (アトム・A・アマレスラ Double post, but thought it belonged here too. Here's a glow shot.
