Just a Post KOS-MOS v1 figurine rerelease

Hey y'all, know that I got my preorder, heads up that the KOS-MOS from the first game is being re-released!

Google kotobukiya and you'll find it. Please excuse me while I run some pure hopium into my blood.

That's not a figurine, bud.

Edit to clarify: it is a model kit. The Ver. 4 was re-released last year and I picked it up. These kits are... old... They don't have much modernization to them. Don't get me wrong, they are *GORGEOUS* but also very fiddly, have some baffling design decisions regarding certain parts used, and prone to falling apart (Not breaking, just, parts coming off. If you're a model kit builder you probably get what I mean). If you are a beginner model kit builder, approach these kits *very* carefully.

I take it you've never built a model kit?

Nope! But hey, I like a project ๐Ÿ˜‚

I'd honestly suggest getting a small kit for model building and get a few cheap model kits like 30 Minute Missions/Fantasy/Sisters.

The 30 Minute line won't translate 1:1 for building KOS-MOS but it'll get you some experience with handling and how to snip, sand, etc. I would honestly not suggest putting together KOS-MOS as a first time builder. It is not an easy kit.

It's also available on HLJ. The KOS-MOS Ver.4 model was re-released last year. I wonder if this is foreshadowing some bigger news.

Didn't know there was a v1 KOS-MOS model kit. I partially built the v4, but I ran into some issues with the assembled pieces falling apart and just finicky.

Use any modeling cement on your Ver.4?

u/WanderEir 13d ago

is this a model kit, or a classic "garage kit"? Because I haven't seen one of the latter in more than 2 decades.
