That's true.

So, I was listening to a podcast about 2 weeks ago, and one of the guys mentioned that he bought this:

It is a fully functioning 1/12 scale arcade cabinet. it has 108 games loaded in, however, they aren't classic arcade games, they are weird bootleg games, but I think that it's cool to just have a 1/12 scale arcade cabinet that actually works.

Why didn't I share this sooner? because I wanted to get one myself before opening the floodgates. :lol

PURPLE ONE WILL BE MINE...when I can afford it XD

Awesome. Great find SSP. Getting one someday. Wonder how they got that thing to work at such a small scale.

And I hear ya on ordering yours before blabbing about it. :p

So this Halo figure of Master Chief comes with an AWESOME CLOAK. Check it out - the thing works for so many figures!

That's really neat.

I saw that figure the other day and almost got it. Just couldn't think of anyone to really get it to work with.

Headsup guys, the figma horses have gone up for preorder on the GSC webstore

They should go pretty well with Gaim or ShinkenRed haha, I preordered both because having different types of things for riders to ride on is becoming particularly fun.

I posted this in the Figma thread earlier. N-Y has them up as well.

$40 ain't exactly bad all things considered. Wish they had a black version, though.

It's not bad price wise, I figured that if I got both even with EMS shipping (and the hope it doesn't hit customs) I get both for around £25 each which for imported figures is really good.

is the figma thread in this part of the forum? Also yeah I wish there was a black version, maybe down the line they'll do it, or could always repaint one.

So, anyone know how MSG/Frame Arms weapons work with this scale?

If they're 1/144, they should be just about right.

Guess the only way to find out is to take the jump...

If you're just looking for weapons in general, and not specifically those, I noticed AmiAmi has a few 1/12 scale firearms.

Yeah, I just got a couple of the Little Armory kits in- the M82A2 and Mk.18 to be specific. The M4 and SCAR are discontinued, unfortunately.

Plan on putting them together soon, but I lack sprue cutters...

Put together my Mk.18. Nice detailing, but the fit for all the pieces is a bit wonky, mostly with the accessories and the lower receiver. Just does not want to hold together when you attach... anything. Also, couldn't even get the rear iron sights on. Ah well.

So here's Sayaka, having had enough of Homura's shit.

I can take a pic with one of my Rangers/Riders if anyone wants an idea of how it looks with them. Open to requests... as long as it's blue so I probably have it.

Amiami just opened preorders for the next batch of Little Armory kits: AKM-type Rifle and M82A1.

I'm a bit miffed over the M82 seeing as I just bought the A2 version, but I'm wetting myself over the Kalash. Wished it had rail mounts, but oh well.

Now if only they'd reissue the M4 and SCAR-H... or did an HK rifle.

EDIT: Sonofagun, they ARE doing a reissue!

M4A1

SCAR-H

drink umbrellas are in good scale with figuarts

So are the little plastic swords.

hmmm...all the better for me to go order a drink!

Oh boy. We promoting inebriation now? :p

Or you could just buy a pack containing about a hundred for like two bucks at your local grocery store.

but wheres the fun in that

You're not paying for some over-priced, watered-down swill?

^Smart.

I'm just full of surprises.

I may have missed it in the Cool Stuff threads, but did you ever get one of these? I just put in an order myself and I was wondering how it was, other than seeming like it would need a smaller knob for figure grippage.

Edit on 1/25: Looks like NCSX wasn't playing around. I should have these tomorrow. Sweet!

My internet's been off on an for the past month or so, so I'm sorry I didn't see your question. Yes I did get it. The games, suck, but I got it for my figures, and I think for the $30-ish you pay for it, it's well worth it, :D

Figures can hold the stick just fine.

You need to find better bars...

There was a series called Konami Desktop Arcade Collection that were near-figma scaled arcade cabinets. There were at least 2 Pop'n Music, 2 Beatmania IIDX, and 2 Quiz games made as part of the line.
As a IIDX player, I always wanted the IIDX ones (especially since one was IIDX 15 DJ Troopers) as a joke that that's the only way I'm gonna own a IIDX cabinet in the US... but turns out I never was able to hunt down the scale cabinet, either. ;A;

UPDATE: looks like they did a series of 3 Jubeat machines, too.

Guys.

Shapeways has a bunch of awesome 3D printed accessories.

The chairs are a bit short, but it still works.

Ooooooh! Want.

You had me at "properly sized Power lance".

And here I was thinking of making my own Feather Edge, looks like I don't have too now. :D

I was thinking about buying a few of the Shapeways things, painting them, and selling them at cost to anyone that needs/wants one.

That'd be cool.

I know some folks are into modern firearms in the 1:12 scale. There is a Kickstarter out there that might interest you:

Marauder GR 1:12 Scale Gear for 6 inch Action Figures

My boys are at it again.

Sooooo, new Effect parts! http://tamashii.jp/special/pickup/201509kgsj/

Thunder this time! They look really stylised as well, looking forward to getting this set.
