This is a really nice kit. Feels refreshing to have a musume kit that doesn't have a ridiculous number of weapons or super revealing armor every once in a while
I would love to see a future kit in this line include parts to transform into a magical girl. May actually make it worth the price considering megami device at the same price usually includes armored and unarmored modes.
Kotobukiya: We proudly announce Megane Musume Now at higher prices than FA Girl and Megami device, and with less articulation and accessories. Glad to see Kotobukiya is following Nvidia and AMD GPU marketing tactics now.
@@somechinesedude5466 Doesn't make sense to be priced at 6930 yen at Koto's online shop. Bought 2 of the shoujos at Koto's online shop via a friend living at Japan and wasn't impressed by the kit. Try to compare it with the upcoming Arca Nadea Lumitea. Same price, lots of detail and curves,more articulation. Asked my friend currently staying in Japan to preorder it.
Hi Zaku. Nice review. I already got Madoka and now waiting for third girl in October. I really love the idea to build kits like these. What glue/ cement do you recommend to stick the parts together? I am hesitant to use super glue, feeling that it might damage the plastic later on.
personally, the only good thing from this kit is that it comes with lots of eye waterslide. unlike megami device that rarely include eyes that facing to the front, most of them are facing to the side
These kits aren’t really for me because I like the sci-fi robotic aspects of the megami device or frame arms girls line better but I still really enjoy the reviewing and seeing other kits that are out there because I could need one some day for a custom kit bash. You never know.
Thank you for the very thorough review. This kit is so cute except for the hands, the heck were they thinking? The joints are flesh colored too, are you supposed to also paint them???
Got the first one, but i think i'll skip this one and go for the third one instead. I don't really like this particular character design type 😅. Since they're pricey i guess i'm only getting the one i really like instead of collecting all of them.
I wasn’t too keen on the short hair with glasses design either but without glasses is better and the alt hair option parts are better than the main set
So... did this also sell out within minutes of going up for sale? And have people also made nude mods of this already? Actually, no, don't answer that last one. I didn't want to know that fact about the first kit, and I DEFINITELY don't want to know it about this one... :D
i kinda dislike how glossy their hair looks. sure it can be fixed by topcoating but i aint doing that. the kits already expensive as is. i dont topcoat my gunplas either
Can't wait for the full armor version
Imagine Bandai doing a female character Real Grade type. Complete with skeletons and muscle.
Perfect nighmare fuel.
@@First-Name_Last-Name Perfect Grade Unleashed with different phases, just like the RX-78-2
@@First-Name_Last-Name the hand runner tree with the flesh tone hand variations would make due as nightmare fuel while waiting for the Real Grades
@@First-Name_Last-Name I'd probably look more like a terminator.
We need more kits with girls wearing glasses.
Photo-etch glasses in scale with these kits are also pretty easy to find I’m sure. I know Three Sheeps Design makes a set
Also plastic parts from PLUM
she is so adorable, I love her clear glasses
Amazing review! I prefer this design over the first one. I'm eagerly waiting for her to arrive! She'll be my very first model kit lol.
4:45 Am I the only one that thinks that hand tree is the stuff nightmares? Feels like something that crawled out of a H.P. Lovecraft novel
-Me again using my jedi power: Zaku, add her some frame arms equipment, we need more school girls with gatling gun in their hands.
Preordered the winter version,may repaint the hair and some parts here and there ,overall I think she's just adorable

I’m waiting for the perfectibility full armor titanium clear coating ver Ka.

I love these reviews despite having never built the only mecha musume I own which is ludens lol. Im gonna get to it... someday...
I'm a sucker for a girl in glasses. I got my pre-order in for her a few weeks ago. Can't wait.
They looked really good and I have a weak spot for short hair and glasses, but that price.... 😱
That one skirt piece is made for dab poses.

More complicated parts than your usual straight & hexagonal detail, to curved, sharp & multi leveled detail parts
Also, inflation price

Agree, this kits should be cheeper
any review about the Byakko model by Frame Arms?
I did one version of that kit, and they’re all basically the same

Whaaa!? Definitely gonna get!
what are the scales for these kits? 1/12 or 1/10?
Do hands from other Kotobukiya lines work with these kits? Would be fun to have school girls armed with SMGs and sniper rifles.
Yes
The mecha is missing from this mecha musume kit
Regular girls, weird

those hand indeed a deal breaker for many ppl who dont paint include me

Exactly! 👍

They are probably expensive because the freaking 27 runners. That's a bunch of mold that they have to make.
That’s true.
the hands runner creeps me out
can you make a reviee of mobile doll sarah and may im sure its waaaay different compared to the figurized ones
