I love them. I got into it with goseiger and have continued and aim to continue getting them. I usually go for a mixture of paint and stickers, particularly on areas where the detail isn't molded in.
I've fallen into a routine though were i don't seem to buy the last two sets of each series for some reason or another, hopefully Gobuster will change this =) |

i have gokaioh, really wish the src's were just these figures with better materials and paint aps instead of stickers. Better joints would also be nice but aren't necessary I guess. I'd buy every SRC if done that way.
the minipla line is really fantastic either way |

For my kits, I use Mr. Color and Mr. Metal Color lacquer paints, as Bandai kits tend to favor them in terms of color matching. I have to admit that I'm no expert in painting. Here's the true master of Minipla: 映GUN具 Gokaioh Gokai Machine Set 1 Gozyujin Fuuraimaru Custom Nise Gokaioh Kanzen Gokaioh I'm officially not worthy.

I really should bite the bullet and get these, but I had a hard time identifying which ones were them when I initially heard about and wanted to get them. Since then... well, 2011's a strong year for toys, they've been on the wayside. |

Thanks for the tips on what paint to use, areaseven! I've been having trouble trying to find the right paints.

Those pics encouraged me to take those awful stickers off my Patstriker's wheels and have a go at painting the rims myself. While it didn't turn out as good as the picture A7 posted, I can't deny that it looks a million times better than the stickers did.
Amazing what a little paint can do.

Wow, nice pics. I'd be interested in getting a few of these, like Gokaioh, but where does one get them for not-crazy-ebay prices?

CS Toys sells them in individual sets, I've seen some decent prices on Mandarake too.
