TROUBLE BOYS S00? [NKD] GID

So, was able to make some pics with my kitbashed GID TBs, and here my lil review











- both GID TBs look awesome. The reg one has a really nice tone when doesn't glow, a bit more greenish that the other GIDs , and the green glowing is nice too (even if I prefer the glowing of reg gids like the Jack or Nozzel).  The Perp glowing has a nice blueish tone (before receiving it I assumed it would have a purple glow, and went surprised when I put it in the dark first time^^) , but the GID power of  this is weaker than the other GID squadts.

- The lenses, clothes, weapons, hats, are top, this is great to have some clear katanas and shotgun, and these lenses work a lot with GID.

- the only not so good point which made me disapointed are the painted arms. They don't glow, sadly (same for some parts of hats).I know this was decided cause the injection PVC had some issues in the previous ones. As a GID lover and squadt fan , I would love to see some rotocasted arms in the same GID vinyl as bodies heads and helmets at one point. Like the GID munnies arms for exemple. I don't know if it's possible, but would be a good one for the next GID releases.
Talking about this, I don't remember how are the GID BUDS arms, must check   


Here a pic with other Squadts GID, for comparison (my fav still the first, Jack!)




These GID TBs are a great addition to every squadt and/or GID collection , awesome release  

And a point I want to express too (and not so about these particular release but all squadt releases I've seen so far) , is that receiving a product which is exactly the same as the proto shown during pre-order, is such a great and satisfactory thing.

Thanks for this awesome release FERG   

nice pics and collection. perp looks good

my Perp glows green   

Awesome pics as always   

Thanks !   

Illusive, my bro' said the same, seems his Perp glows the same as the reg ones too

Nice GID pics, it is a shame that the arms don't glow as well as you mentioned. They're armless in the dark!  

Edit: if you don't mind me askin, how do you charge them so well? Any tips/advice?

haha damn it! i like the blue glow better

I think it depends on how your charging up the GID material. When I put my perp under backlight it was intense green GID. Then when I charged it in the sunlight, or with a regular lightbulb it had the blue/purple GID look.  

Made my NKD GID TB a little custom tee last night:

Badass cripe!

I'm with Greg. Going to need a how to. That is awesome.

Damn, Cripe... now I'm craving a Margarita!   

Awesome custom tee !

Thanks for the compliments guys! And yeah Angie, he does look rather tangy!

Credit should go to Teimaru for the idea though:

I think he must have used a similar technique.

No, definitely not. If it were my own design then, maybe. But all I've done is put Ferg's design on a tee, just to see what the result would be like.

awesome custom shirt Ben!!! I want one   

It looks pretty darn good. Gravest job man.


Let's hope ferg gives us some of those officially.

Crip' credit doesn't come to me, I just made the same a lot of people do with 1/6 figs   
Just adpated it to a squadt ^^
And I think bot of us use decals, result look quite good, but not as perfect as screenprinted ones

Btw, does the decal you used is GID ? And what is te tee you used ?

Hey, Teimaru. I know, I didn't mean you came up with the idea or anything. Just that I saw your custom tees and thought I'd like to try it too.   

Yes, just used transfer paper. I was quite surprised how well it worked. That kind of paper seems to have improved since I used it to print band t-shirts 20+ years ago. Lol.

No, the decal isn't GID. It's just the kind that the white portions turn transparent when applied. In the pic it's just a standard Squadt assembly fort burnout tshirt on backwards. I put the decal on the back.   

for those still looking, circusposterus has them up right now.

bought a nightmare no 13 about an hour ago but those are sold out now.
