The Action Pose Thread

Decided to test out the new CC kit as well as showcase my recent Nexus acquisitions, Scrapmetal and the Star and Dark Sabers.

It's true that it's hard to put it together, and it doesn't stay together that well, but i would argue that the design it is based on (I'm gueSsing that it's the koto chain base) it's about the same, if not slightly flimsier..
I think I would be able to put it together better if I spent a bit more time on it and if I did it on a proper flat surface as opposed to what I did which was build it on the shelf that it is on.. Kinda bent at a strange angle, trying to put it together. Took a while but I managed!!! And also I skipped the stickers as they actually have clear display monitors cast in Clear (actually a bit opaque) blue plastic.

Am thinking of how I can add to it but haven't come up with a plan yet. Hence leaving of as is. I just wanted to get it on my shelf asap hence a quickish job of putting it together. I still really like it though!

ROTF Bludgeon demonstrating various Kenjutsu (Japanese sword fighting) postures:

I know they're not terribly accurate due to limitations in Bludgeon's articulation, but also because I'm not very familiar with Kenjutsu stances (since it's not an art I practice), and I did these poses based on vague memory without any reference pics in front of me at the time. So apologies to any practitioners of Japanese swordsmanship (e.g. Kenjutsu, Kendo, Iaido/Iaijutsu, Battoujutsu etc.) out there who may be noticing that these positions are somewhat less than completely accurate. :p

A sequel of sorts to my previous post. Feel the drama :D

Poor Thrust, the others just dont want to play with you :p

Decided to try out my new gundam action base on some transformers. Turns out it only works on a very select few (with tenuous success). Luckily one of them was Cyclonus!

The awesomeness of BLUDGEON overshadows any apparent inaccuracies in the positions depicted.
Great set of photos!
