1/7 Motoko Kusanagi arrived yesterday. From the anime series Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, this ATBC-PVC statue's produced by Union Creative. There's also a variant simulating her Therm-optic camouflage abilities, more info here http://union-creative.jp/en/uc/2759/

Original Factory Paint



Minor Repaint Repainted The Major's eyes & lips to look closer to her anime design:

Nice work on the repaint.
I love that Clare piece, too.

Thank you, personally thought The Major looked stunned so i tweaked it.

Some sprue marks & seam lines could have been cleaned up better but apart from that this is a good solid statue.

Always wanted a Ghost in the Shell/Motoko Kusanagi collectible but didn't want to pay ridiculous aftermarket prices.

Wonder if they'll remake the Claymore anime series like Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood?

Always wanted to get that Catherine figure, but it's always been so overpriced.

Very nice Griffon! The touch up work on Kusanagi makes her look even better. I wish mine looked like that. I agree that the blank stare she comes with doesn't do her justice.

Best pre-painted 3D representation of her in my opinion & the silver + chrome finishes really stand out.

Thanks friend! Practiced before attempting it though. If you want to try i recommend using Tamiya X (acrylic gloss paints) black, white, red, X-20A Thinner, cup of water, small plastic pallette, fine round & sharp point brushes. Make sure your room's ventilated & well lit, use a reference, practice painting on the palette first then the statue & be patient.

You can also try using decals. I saw another collector carefully heated the hair & face pieces, took it apart, applied Archer Anime eyeball decals, added clear varnish, & glued it all back together.
