Dispatches from the Middle Circle

aaah his shoulders light up!!

should I have been buying action figures instead of model kits this entire time?

I have that. It's pretty nice and probably the best Ingram figure out there. That video doesn't really highlight one of the neater features. There's actual cloth covering the joints there, not sculpted plastic. It also has a pretty extensive use of diecast metal throughout, giving it a nice reassuring heft.

If you're a fan of Patlabor and can find one, I can't recommend it enough.

I just preordered the ThreeZero VF-1S earlier today which is what led me to this

Clothing covering, that’s insane

Here's a decent in depth review

So far everything I've encountered from ThreeZero has been of pretty good quality. Granted my direct exposure has been limited to their Ingram and RabidlyDog.

Patlabor The Mobile Police: On Television

(1989-1990)

Palm-sized Noa Izumi and Alphonse for my own self-indulgence

Todaybor Day is Labor Day! 

I emerge with a ridiculous offering of questionable art on this day. The venn diagram of people who will both get the joke -and- find it funny is a wafer thin sliver between two circles, but this is for them. For -them-!

I discovered while drawing this that there is, in fact, a Patlabor Day in Japan, but it’s not today. That’s a missed opportunity if I ever saw one. 

Terrible art idea credit goes to @TimmCosplay. Blame him. I’m just the messenger who drew it.

yes, it's a revolver with an 84mm bore, but it still follows revolver rules - prevent the cylinder from rotating and it won't fire
