I hope once the Pomutori thing is done, the hype dies down. I used to be neutral about Pomu but its getting annoying to see it everywhere and Im starting to dislike POmu by sheer oversaturation.
Nothing against those two bitches but at this point, I fully expect that collab to not live up to all the hype surrounding it. Happy to be surprised though.
Bandai have 30MM kit which is more affordable and IMO is much more customizable.
IMO, anything 144 scale or smaller (which is what most of those tiny kits are) are pretty much gonna be "grenades" as far as fit and stability goes. Besides, most of the fun is in the actual 1/100 scale gunplas kits - let alone being the real fun in kitbashing is making your own gunpla design.
ngl, I'd like to think their recruitment process got some individuals but after doing their background checks, turns out to be a couple of bad apples.
Kinda got curious on this from hit/miss perspective re: their recruitment process so please do bear with some of my personal autism:
1. Hitomi Cris -
terminated
2. Yakushiji Suzaku - graduated
3. Tsukishita Kaoru - graduated
4. Mano Aloe - graduated
5. Kagami Kira - graduated
6. HoloCN (6 members) -
terminated but allowed to formally "graduate"
7. Kiryu Coco - graduated
8. Uruha Rushia -
terminated
9. Tsukumo Sana - graduated
So that's 14 chuubas that left the company - 6 of which can be considered as consensus "bad apples" (Cris, Rushia and 4 members of HoloCN) out of around 85(?) overall vetted and hired. That's a 7.1% fail rate which still puts their recruitment/vetting process at a pretty impressive 92.9% success rate. That's without taking into account the nuance of whether Rushia being menhera could've been accounted for in the vetting process if she hasn't had any serious spergouts prior. The Taiwan fiasco with HoloCN is pretty much the cost of choosing to do business and cater to bugmen autism.
