Please post pictures of your favourite Cyborg, Muton or other in interesting locations around the world.
If you live somewhere really cool, like overlooking Sydney Harbour, Swiss Alps or other picturesque location that's great, get a picture sent in!
Even if you don't, but have an interesting occupation, take your toy to work for the day, take a few snaps, the more unusual the better.
You may decide to take a pic of your toy enjoying a white knuckle ride, extreme sports, or even just a plain old cup of tea.
Anything will do, let's brighten up the board.

Hey Muton55398, have you not looked at my photostories? There are three to date, clearly marked, all here on the HC board, check them out! The last one has backdrops taken from Death Valley, although I’ve never been there, so it could be subtitled “Dokuroking at Death valley” I did also have a half-baked idea to have British Cyborgs drinking tea and maybe being bigoted about their Japanese cousins, with a picture of the Queen in the background. I have a lot of photostory ideas but I also collect and build Aurora models, which takes up a lot of what little spare time I have. There will be more, though, because I have the bug now, but I ain’t going to rush them.
Somewhere on this board there is a post about “the clear GI Joes are great” and if you link through, this guy has done many, many photostories using GI Joes. He takes them on holiday and all. I would never take any of my toys on holiday because I’d hate to lose or damage them in transit. I wouldn’t take them to work, either, but I look at robots enough on the internet for all my colleagues to know about my nerdy hobby. One guy comes up and goes “I am a robot” in a silly voice behind me.
Have you got a digital camera? If so, let’s see your shots!

I recently tuned my boring "gun metal" 99 cyborg into a fly pimpin' purple 99 cyborg. It's not mind boggling to look at it, but I'll put up a shot when I get a chance.

Does he really pimp flies, or is that a colloquiallism? Mind boggling! I'm looking forward to pictures, Johnny!

I saw the other photostories which i thought were pretty creative. That's pretty much what gave me the idea for this post. I have got a digital camera and i will follow up and get a few shots on here myself. I don't live near any remarkable landmarks in the UK so i'll probably have to photoshop something together, i'll post something later.

What's this? Neo Henshin Cyborg protecting Earth? Oh no, he's on his Christmas holidays, he taking a break from intergalactic battles. Perhaps because 'tis the season of goodwill to all men and aliens. It Looks as though he's going to scale those mountains in the distance.  That's nice, It looks as though he's having a lot of fun. If only I actually owned a vintage cyborg or shonen cyborg, he wouldn't be so lonely.  Never mind i'm sure he find something to do, Merry Christmas to all on the robot-japan boards!  |

He doesn't look lonely to me! He has a snowman and a giant naked lady for company.
Thanks for posting these delightful pictures, Muton53398,they made my day.
Now if Johnny posts pictures of his purple 99 pimping flies, my Yuletide will be complete!

I couldn't resist it! I'm sure Johnnyhaggis' fly pimpin 99 doesn't look anything like this,  But if it did, we'd all want one! (sorry i didn't have a shot of a 99, i had to use the yellow cyborg) |

Muton53398, your spirit of generosity knows no bounds. I have a big rubber fly somewhere in the attic; it crossed my mind to pose a Cyborg next to it and have him say the line from Taxi Driver "She make your expletive so hard it explooode!" But now there's no need.

That is HILARIOUS! WHy does he look like he's wrapped in seran wrap under his pimp coat?
By the way for all you white-ass briton's out there - Fly Pimpin' hip or stylish and pimpin means: hip or stylish, maybe alittle extravagant, wealthy, status show-offy kind of way. Like wearing really expensive diamonds. Or maybe that purple coat!
By the way I laughed out loud unexpectedly at that naked woman in the snow with cyborgs. Ha! She obviously had her breasts made by Dr. Katagai.

I’m afraid that some of us white-ass Britons are punctuation pedants who insist that you refrain from using an apostrophe in a plural. But now I appreciate the vernacular, pimpin’ meaning flamboyant like a pimp, that’s logical, but where do the flies come in? You must excuse me, I really am a stiff English fellow who has little cultural contact with radical, pimpin’ dudes in the ‘hood and all their funky patois.
That shrink-wrapped finish gives him a really seedy, dubious appearance. I laughed out loud at both your postings, Muton55398, which made it rather obvious to my work colleagues that I was internet skiving. But keep ‘em coming!

My apologies for the random punctuation, anti white-ass remarks and forgetting to explain "fly" - I thought I had, but looking back I didn't. I had meant to write just "fly" where it said "fly pimpin" the first time, but that's probably even more confusing.Too much in a rush, make errors that make me blush.
Fly just means hip and stylish. Not in a flamboyant way like Pimpin', just nice new clothes. See below.

Thanks for the shots, Johnny. I had pictured a 99 with the transparent parts painted transparent purple, but he looks cool. What kind of paint did you use? The KW2 shots are lovely too; Magma looks like a mean mother up so close.
Please don't apologise for white-ass remarks, Johnny! I'm proud to say I'm a little less than 100% caucasian.

The reason I didn't pain the clear parts is because General Walder is already purple and also that's a hell of a lot more work. You need airbrush tools.
I just used acrylic spray paint, and I put some clay-type substance over the eyes and other parts I didn't want to pain.

Great shots Johnny, i'm glad to see people getting into the spirit of things,
can't wait to see cyborg dressed as ken. Perhaps you'll have to buy a pink barbie convertable too?
Thanks for the appreciation Hypno, I'll have to post some more funnies in the next couple of weeks.
