So, I found some custom made beam effect parts designed for use with DBZ figuarts, and since I had SDCC Piccolo just lying around I bought a few. Since I bought 3 effects parts, but only have one DBZ SHF, I bought a couple more from Den-O.



The spiral part of the one is kinda disappointing, it's just hot glue that was laid down in that shape and then after it was dried put around the hard plastic core. It doesn't look as good as I hoped, but it looks alright. But not for what I paid for it (too much for the three).




The other effects I like a lot.




I found some cheap acrylic rods I can buy, and clear paint is easy enough to find (I wonder if these are dyed though, rather than painted), I think I can make a few of these myself, which I'd really like to do, if I can figure out how he's molding the ends so consistently. Cuz he's charging a bit too much for me to consider buying more of them from him.
