Wow, thats a quick turn around time. Good news for you then, mechamasterj.
Yeah, most of them are retailing around the 15000+ yen range nowadays, so with shipping and middleman fees, $200 sounds about right. I am waiting for RyuKoOh to pop up any time now (since I missed the preorder). But looks like it didn't make the Feb release date.

RyuKoOh (Dragon Tiger King), not Raioh. Raioh is cool too, but picking RyuKoOh over it, since I have KuRyuOh (Tiger Dragon King) already. Its hard not to have the pair together. Though you really have to consider. Compatible Kaiser (or any Dengeki SRW release) is a one chance release. Not easy to sort after in the second hand market, and not for retail price for sure. Other stuff can wait, if you are set for getting one. But its true, serious collectors only.  |

Uhmmmm... I don't think resin kits are poseable.
There's no articulation. The assembly parts are joined
together by small pins and holes in the resin.
When assembled, the character will already be posed
in the position the bodyparts were molded/casted for.

When assembled, the character will already be posed in the position the bodyparts were molded/casted for. zozo-Magengar There's no overall rule that says Resin kits can't be poseable - I've got plenty that are designed to be moveable, either with included polycap joint sets or aftermarket ones. Even ones that aren't meant to be built that way can be turned into poseable models with generous use of a a razor saw and some hobby base joint sets. In the case of the Gunleon, however, I do believe it was not designed to use joints as-built so one would have to modify it if you wanted it to be able to. There are recasts of the Gunleon kit available at Tatsuhobby: tatsuhobby.com/webstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_41&products_id=307 |

There are many resin kits that are articulated and poseable, including some cool Super Robot characters. }D |

I think what magengar got confused with is that most resin kit out there in the market are resin model statues. In particular, most anime female statues. But I guess magengar doesn't know that there are lots of action type figures that are also cast in resin. B-Club is famous for making adds on for Gundam kit are also cast in resin. There are also full gundam kits entirely cast in resin from b-club. But I guess the most well known company we have in recent memory is studio halfeye. Their figures are cast in resin and they build and complete it for you. Each one hand made and painted, so they are really expensive.

yeah tons of full action resinn kits are out there......... especially all those wonder fest exclusives and treasure festa you see out there....... problem is resin is defintely not a good choice when makeing figures meant for action. resin is very brittle and these kits take a lot more work than a normal model kit let alone resinkit. Lots of driling to be done and a lot of them dont come with the joints you need to assemble the full kit. Even conversioin kits usually dont fit perfectly and you have to sand and such to get it right. However, we see some of the best sculpts in resin form as well as many of our favorite characters coming to life by various artist........ but you must have skill to make them look as good yourself

That Cybird look so wrong from certain angles, when you can pick out all the Cybuster body parts and the pose its doing in that mode. LOL  Not the fault of the figure per se, just the way it transforms needs some engineering magic to get it more proportionate for the bird mode. |
