1-8 - Getting Used to Each Other

Kaji Motomiya

on Feb. 1, 2011

First off, I apologize for not updating on Friday as I promised. I did say on the thread that I would be taking a quick break because of the lack of ideas and other things. Secondly, I apologize for not updating yesterday; the pictures were taken on Sunday, but I didn't get a chance to work on them because of a REALLY long nap. I love to take REALLY long naps.

Aigis' first comic and first speaking lines. I felt that she was a bit TOO formal and gentle during the scripting, so I changed her last line to make it seem "abnormal" based on the others' first impressions. At first, I wanted to model her after Strain42's Aigis, but I don't think I'd want to see her humping the other toys. So I decided, she'll "act" nice, but when she's enraged or show a dislike, she'll be a bit mean with her words. But she is an honest "person." Honest.

I also dropped hints about two coming characters that I got last Sunday. If you are a Kamen Rider fan and a Figuarts collector, you may have already figured out what I ended up getting.

-TOY/CHARACTER INTRODUCTION-
S.H. Figuarts Masked Rider Kabuto is the "cool guy" (not to be confused with Kuuga) of the group. He likes to tease the other figures and stand them up with his awesomeness, but respects figma Black Rock Shooter for having the same interest as him: motorcycles. He hopes to one day have his own motorcycle without sharing with the others. Kabuto is well adept in fighting, and his usual sparring partners are Figuarts Decade and TheBee. Because he's the other mostly-red figure in the group, but was opened first in the same haul that Kuuga Mighty was in, he's often called "Big Red" (not to be confused with the gum), while Kuuga is called "Lil' Red", and Figuarts Double HeatMetal is called "Semi-Red".
