Repainting/Re-Pinning for a New Zyudenchi...

... since I don't want the Stymero Zyudenchi, I figure I might as well modified it to something I like... and then I realised that I don't really have the desire for a specific Zyudenchi... In the end, decided to mod it to "00" Tobaspino Zyudenchi, as it is the very first... First, holes for the other 2 pins are marked out (thru' visual estimation, no template) and drilled (manually with a twist drill bit)...


Next, used some tooth picks (cut to size) as the pins... they are glued in using super-glue... Once done, some trimming/filing is done to get a flatter top... then the pins are painted with a grey colour paint-pen...


Using pictures obtained from the internet, I edited and print out some stickers to be used... The stickers are then covered with clear sticky tape for protection... Left side of the picture is the luminous (night-glow) sticker bought from Daiso, to be used later...


...and some stickers...


The luminous (night-glow) sticker is painfully cut to a Tobaspino-like dinosaur... and then pasted on a paper painted blue... and as with all stickers, it is covered with clear sticky tape... Some of the details of the dinosaur is not cut out but drawn with blue paint using a toothpick, hence the ugliness especially on the left side of the back-fin part with ink-smudge....


... pasting the Dino-head sticker... slightly short but still ok...


Painting the body of the Zyudenchi to metallic blue colour... The paint used is shown in the picture, and is the same one I used for painting my KO MP Ultra Magnus into Optimus Prime... Oh shoot! Forget to paint the colour-fading heads of my 2 Optimus Primes!!! ... Maybe later...


Done!!!! Front views (normal state and Brave-In state) of the "knock-off" Tobaspino Zyudenchi... Looks ok from a distance, hahahaha...


Back view...


And my 3 Zyudenchis...



Am in the midst of making new blades for my KO Musou Saber, Daidaimaru and AbaLaser... Hope I can finish quickly...

December Purchase (2) - Ultra Hero 500 Spark Dolls : Seven, Ultraman

Gotten them in Takashimaya 2 days ago... at $9.95 each... Makes a good display!!!! Nice... However, the sticker at the bottom of foot (both figurines) is yellow, instead of red as seen in Youtube clips... Doesn't matter anyway, I don't have a DX Ginga Spark to scan it...
