So, still not sure about the #3MinProject stuff. I don't mind the finished product (though it's a bit cheap, in that the 'back' of the model has voids, which should be filled)
But holy shit, the assembly was... physically painful. REALLY hard plastic and slightly out tolerances. Not what I was hoping for.
Quality-wise, the small pilot/dude kits are good apart from the tolerances on the pelvis-torso. I'd just make that a ball joint, personally. The head was also annoying on that yellow one.
Advice: use tissues/toilet paper to holf the parts. More grip, easier on the hands when doing those ones.
I do, however, applaud Sheik Mainland - more kits are moar kitz, and I like the idea of other players pushing into Bandai's space (cost aside, Australian distributors seem to get absolutely fucked by Bandai on supply)
So, they're interesting kits. Different scale to #gunpla or #30MinuteMissions, about half the size of HG gunpla, and 30mm for the mech itself.
What's interesting, is: these are NOT cheap. $30 for maybe 3 of 'em, and if you weighed the parts, it's less than an HG
Alrighty, that's one of the #3MinProject Ventus Vector models and two of the little dudes done.
My fucking thumbs hurt.
Holy shit, I don't know if I can actually get the pelvis onto the torso's join.
It's just ridiculously small and has a double pin, it's fucked
Ok. Little box first. It's actually six dudes. Tiny as fuck. Check out the runners.
Two different types of figure, one of each type per colour
It's not quite #gunpla or #30MinuteMissions, this is... #3MinProject
