グッドスマイルカンパニーの公式ブログ「みかたんブログ」を読んでいる方はもうご存知だと思いますが、先週GSC本社でお邪魔させて頂きました。
原型師さんの部屋です。
ToLoveるのララちゃんだ。この方は天才です。
アニメはとても楽しみにしている。
V−ゾーンは奇麗。
塗装する時に使う吸引ボックス（名前分からない^^;）
このようなガンプラ専用工房が欲しい。
サフ吹き専用？
もう一人の天才がいる。
凄いWOWなフィギュア作っていました。
本社のメインエリアです。
クオリティーコントロールは徹底している。
デザイン系エリア。
フィギュア沢山。
いいおっぱいしている。
倉庫に潜入。このような部屋を僕の墓にしてくれ。
GSCには天才原型師が盛りだくさん。この方はねんどろいどメリッサを作った方だ。
Figmaセイバーだ。
これは完成品ではなく、これからはいろいろな直しが入る。
原型師が作ったオリジナルの形に妥協のないGSCの努力を見ると、感動の涙が。
IT企業にはミーティング部屋に一つ置くべき。
そこで問題だ。あなたは固定フィギュア、それとも可動フィギュアのほうが好き？
4月発売です。
Max Factoryのツアーは明日以降にアップします。

Polytechnic Freshman. Mmm... fresh.
LOL at "the loser gets to drink it"... just like in AirGear. For some reason, in my mind Junken and "loser drinks it" leads to that... I'm torn between articulated and non-articulated. One can fiddle with articulated ones(Maybe play Dungeons & Dragons with the Saber?), but if you're looking for works of art to decorate your desk, I suppose non-articulated ones would be a mile better...

lolz Danny what are those Mirai marks for? :| Are you trying to hide a Mirai Figurine in the making or some NSFW figurines of yourself?

What an awesome tour. I'm so envious of you being to go places we would could only dream of going.

i guess i have to expect articulated figures from the west, like my DC and Marvel action figures. but with anime figures from Japan, i'm ok with them being non-articulated. most of them r so detailed and their poses r often so beautiful that i'm fine with them being non-articulated.

Non-articulated are better. Great poses, great artwork and sculpting, along with finishing are what I look for in anime figures, not movable parts and joints. So who was that wedding dress figure?
(ID #154606) Posted on 2008/03/11 22:59
Danny, it is either those with the Mirai marks are classified figures that are not suppose to be shown to public yet or are you telling us something? =3 *looks @ Mirai artwork in some of the picts* you are telling us something aren't you? ^_~ lulz i choose both articulated and non-articulated figures. both are equally eye candy goodness ^________^
(ID #154607) Posted on 2008/03/11 23:01
I really do prefer non-articulated figures, think they look alot better. Not a big fan of the hollows in articulated figures. Though when the character got clothes that cover them they can be quite nice, but then they show to little skin! :]
(ID #154608) Posted on 2008/03/11 23:03
Finally!!! ^^ Wow, the sculpting studio desks sure looks like your typical Gunpla/Figure painter/collector hehe ^^ I spotted Figma Konata at the stock room!! *drool* Definitely looking forward to Lala and Hatsune Miku PVC (Not shown >_< ) Really cant wait for the videos!! ( ^ _ ^ )/
(ID #154610) Posted on 2008/03/11 23:06
Oh and forgot to add. The one in the wedding dress, I think it's from Idolmaster ^^ Forgot her name though >_<;
(ID #154614) Posted on 2008/03/11 23:11
Thanks for the tour. Man I wish i could work in GSC but i have no skills to offer them. :( Maybe "condensed milk engineer"? LOL! Can't wait for the Hatsune Miku pvc!
(ID #154616) Posted on 2008/03/11 23:12
Looking forward the video as well ^^ I do prefer non-articulated figures, but I think I am going to fall for this Saber Figma. That Azusa in wedding dress is too beautiful, want one T_T
(ID #154617) Posted on 2008/03/11 23:12
Heh, I sense a future Mirai-chan figure as well! Wow, a a figure preview, and figma Saber, no less! (Still I prefer non-articulated figures) And some big LOL for the "Loser of Janken drinks toxic water" part. I'm sure they do great work after that. ^^;
(ID #154618) Posted on 2008/03/11 23:19
i much much prefer tandard non-articulated figures. me look forward to a mirai figure soon. ^^;

For me, it depends on the quality of the figure. Some articulate figs do not impress me as much. Though I do love my Yotsuba one.

Much more interested in Mirai in the background. ^^;
(ID #154632) Posted on 2008/03/11 23:42
Articulated figures don't look nice enough for me, and I'm not into playing with my figures a lot (though the Figma line might change that) so I'm more for non-articulated stuff.
(ID #154649) Posted on 2008/03/12 01:10
I want mirai figure to be made....special edition ^^

I like the odd articulated figure, but mostly I like my non-articulate, prettier that way. :grin:
(ID #154654) Posted on 2008/03/12 01:26
I'm gonna go for a middle-way and say I like both. Which I do. Standard non-articulated figures are nice and pretty whilst articulated figures are fun to play with. Everyone's a winner, especially now that articulated figures are looking better and better!

A lot of figures~ *drools* I'm new to the figure collecting... So.. What is the difference between Articulated figures and the Non-articulated figures? xD Anyway looking forward for the Max Factory Tour with the video ^^
(ID #154661) Posted on 2008/03/12 01:52
I would love to work there! Well probrably my figures would look like crap, but hey I could learn it...

Looks like lots of people are requesting a Mirai figure, and I'm one of them too! Quick demand one!

if they're able to hide the articulation naturally I don't mind ^^ and Mirai figure pleaseee LOL
(ID #154671) Posted on 2008/03/12 02:31
Non- Articulated figures for me cos I'm bad at posing figs. One more request for a Mirai figure here Danny!
(ID #154673) Posted on 2008/03/12 02:43
I'm somewhere in the middle as well. While I like non-articulate figures, I also like pose -able figures so long as the articulation is done well. The figmas are very well done in this respect.

Part human, part student, 100% loser
Those who wants Mirai figure, say I! I!
(ID #154680) Posted on 2008/03/12 02:57
I take it you were joking when you said that the loser has to drink the paint. :)

@number1guy: Cheers!
(ID #154720) Posted on 2008/03/12 05:06
i don't like to pose my figures because i figure that their just gonna sit on/by my desk and i'll eventually forget about it, so i rather not deal with posing it. Another vote for Mirai figure!

Don't really like the Articulated figures. I have both Revoltech Ayanami and Rin. Only play with them a bit when I open the box then I never touch them again. Now they're standing stead in my display box. (-____-.
(ID #154747) Posted on 2008/03/12 05:52
I don't really like how joints look in figures. No matter how small or hidden they are, I still think they bulge out. And I like my figures just stationary...looking at them is just fine ^_^

I PREFER ARTICULATED FUGURES
(ID #154785) Posted on 2008/03/12 08:03
A while back you had an article on a Wendy from GunXSword that had a shirt that stretched. Why can't they use that material to make the skin? That way they could have joints and have the skin stretch over them. The biggest problem I have with them is how bad they look on figures

Haven't got much into figures yet (girlfriend won't let me), but from what I've seen, non-articulated ones do tend to just look better. On the other hand, I loved playing with action figures when I was a boy, and nowadays one of my favorite things about Gunpla modeling is the possibility of different poses. I'm looking forward to an ever-changing display of the battle between the Revoltech Gurren Lagann and Lazengann, for instance. Perhaps it comes to this: giant robots - best poseable; girls - no need. Also: Three cheers for a Mirai figure.
(ID #154792) Posted on 2008/03/12 08:14
I'd like to see a time-lapse video of their scupltures, if they would allow it.

I prefer a non-articulated since I don't bother with making different poses of them.. I will wait till a Mirai fig is made.. Another vote for Mirai..

I'd choose non-articulated figures mostly because of the detail and their lovely pose. But I'm open to both cause it would really depend on how well the figure is made. ^^ What are those mirai marks for anyway? A possible mirai figure in the works perhaps? You are such a teaser. hahah! c'mon...tell us. XD

non-articulated don't like to see joints in my figures >.< I'm looking forward to Mirai figures
(ID #154927) Posted on 2008/03/12 13:04
That sculptor has some of the McFarlane Dragons over his desk. Is it rare to see American figures like that over in Japan? Did he have to import those like I have to import my Japanese ones?
(ID #154993) Posted on 2008/03/12 16:11
you have forgotten to write this at the end of the post: "Btw, it's just a joke that at the end of the day, the employees do junken and the looser drinks it." Well, unless it's true.. >.< Or else, underage readers will be going @_@.."Chi Chi"....

Non-articulate for me.. can't stand those hideous (IMHO) joints... I'd love to know the process and materials needed for figure making.. perhaps I am out-of-touch but, I haven't seen much information around it.. safe Pinky modding. Thank you for this informative post, I love studio tours XD Mirai fig FTW!

Thumbs down for articulated, even if it's Saber.

I guess Saber on top of Mirai drawings is just a happy coincidence? Haha.

While I do like articulated figures, Fixed pose ones win in terms of aesthetics, hands down. No articulated figures can effectively hide the joints on the build. even the fraulein revoltechs have that problem at certain angles (mostly from behind)
(ID #155145) Posted on 2008/03/12 21:40
wow nice studio to work in ;D BTW danny do you know what kind of clay are they using? I've been trying to sculpt gravity defining details with a few types of clays and they don't really work that well >.<" hope to grasp some trade secret from them ;P
(ID #155242) Posted on 2008/03/13 01:29
can't wait for Figma Saber to be released!~ X3 I so want to look through the process of figu making ^^
(ID #155570) Posted on 2008/03/13 15:30
Can't help but also wonder what the Mirai marks were hiding there... :P Anyways, GSC is great! They have tons of figures I want in my collection... interesting to see their Office too.
