While I was working on the recent Silent Mobius and Cammy kits, I was also looking into beefing up my Takara Protect Gear/Jin-roh figure; probably the next project after completing the duo. The make of the figure approaches the quality of garage kits, that’s why I’m loving it 🙂 If I get the armor to be less monotonous, do away the seams and detail it properly, this Chuichi Koshiramaru figure should turn into sometime neat. At this point I’ve replaced the plastic machine gun ammo belt with one made with metal. The belt was stupidly expensive, but nothing else can give the kind of weighty suspension it does. I also need 2 of them, since the usual 50 round belt is too short for him. The plastic one has 100 and I guess I need another 25 or so.
i see you have the kohukumaru! i love mine, he was the first panzer cop i got! found him in hong kong for a reasonable price.
any way, ive done my research and have a complete list of all 1/6 panzer cop figures, past/present/future. let me know if you want the list and i’ll send it to you. j
