Description
So, bought my first LBX kits. They're really damn fun, but I knew there was no way I wasn't going to modify them. The shoulderpads on Buster are from HG Buster Gundam, a long with some other pieces. I made his waist a double balljoint/replaced the hips, too. On Proto, I painted his main antenna what ever piece the grey of his body (because painting yellow is the biggest pain in the ass), obviously gave him the shield + the rifle, made his sniper attach on to his back, did some general painting fixups, made his abdomen joint a double balljoint, and, though it isn't that noticable, made those waist flap pieces move so his hip articulation isn't hindered forward/back (he can kneel, now).Related content

Those model kits look fun as heck, I also love how you used Gundam parts with it, and moves the shoulders to the knees. It seriously makes him look even better, and I might do the same if I find the kit anywhere.
Also, question, is the show that these come from any good? I've been looking for something to fill the voice left from Gundam Build Fighters, which was the void filler for Medabots.

They are very fun, and very cheap.Β The show is.. fine, it's not that well animated or anything but I think the budget increased as the seasons progressed.

'Was always a fan of Buster's design. Not a bad mod. Proto I looks pretty cool too.

I might have to check out some LBX action. They look cute and fun and not too stressful.
Mind if I ask where you get yours?

The manga came out in 2011. You couldn't have been that much younger. Also, the buster kit came out about 2 months ago.

Cool mods. I'm happy your mods turn out so well cause customization is half the fun if only I didn't wreck them all the time.

these are really nice! How's the articulation on them?

It's actually really good for how cheap the kits are.

About $10-15 per set, keep in mind I did modify these a bit. Not that much is painted on them, and they are kits. Order them from HLJ/Hobby Search/Amiami.

how much is the shipping/tax? also, I'm still not sure how paying it in USD works... (sorry, just wondering what you do)

What currency are you used to?
Shipping depends on whether you use SAL or EMS. Go look up some guides on this stuff.

USD. For some reason, I'm slightly confused as to the payment process works. Do you just simply pay straight up in USD, or does it need to be converted to Yen first?

that simple? wow...dunno why I was getting confused...thanks for helping me out!
