Ultraman R/B RB Rube : DX R/B Gyro and Modification into Ultraman Tiga Crystal ( Wind Form )

Bought the DX R/B Gyro (SGD 30) and some DX Crystal sets (SGD 5 each) recently. The DX R/B Gyro comes with the default Fire (Ultraman Taro) and Water (Ultraman Ginga) Crystals, and the set 03 has the Ground (Ultraman Victory) Crystal. So the last of the 4 basic form Wind (Ultraman Tiga) is missing, and it is packaged with the DX Crystal Holder. Not wanting to buy a holder just for the Crystal, I decided to modify 1 of the Crystals into a Wind (Ultraman Tiga) Crystal. I realised that 1 of the monster Crystal has the character 嵐, which is basically 2 characters 山 and 風, and 風 happens to be the character for the Wind (Ultraman Tiga) Crystal. This will save me time to print the sticker onto transparent papers to become stickers, as I can just paint the top part 山 black and it will become the 風 .

The pins will be just added on with some spare Tamiya pins' stems, or cut off the un-necessary ones.


Covering the top part 山 with black paint pen of the character 嵐 and it will become the 風...



Printed out the main Ultraman Tiga sticker on glossy photo paper, and used double-sided tape to mount on the (inner of the) Crystal. Done.


Works quite well.
