Here's some fast pics of the Bond I'm working on . . .

Very nice, though it looks like he has leather pants & I think Bond prefers his leather on the women. What legs are those, AOD Ash?

What you're seeing is the reflection from the flash. Neither the jacket or the pants are glossy.
And, it's a Solo upper w/moded neck with an Ash lower.

Here's a few pics of the Polar Bear snap kit I got from Hobby Link Japan . . .

Here it is unpainted

despite being 1/20, the Polar Bear AFS actually looks good next to a Joe. Gives me ideas there, it does. I assume you painted it? How did it look before painting?

Added a painted pic ;-)

Cool custom and cool kit but I have one question. Polar Bear? Looks more like that diving suit from that movie the Abyss

I need to know more about this Polar Bear snap kit. 8-O

How poseable is it? Where can I buy this item?

That Polar Bear looks perfect! I think I may have to get a three-man team. :-)

But yes, exactly how posable is it? And is it fragile?

Yup, both of these are most sweet. And thanks for the confirmation of how nice them Ma.K. figs look with Joes. Do you see a diff between the Polar Bearand the Luna Pawn, which are all HLJ has in stock at the moment? Dang it, why is all the 16th stuff discontinued? I'm very interested in the 2 female pilot heads, but not for $15!

Damn you AV, now I have to decide how many of each suit I want!

I may pick a couple more of these kits up myself- worth it.
The model stays together for the most parts. But if you plan on doing a ton of posing and playing I'd recommend gluing.
As for articulation- he features cup joints at the shoulders. Hinged joints at the elbows. The right hand is a swivel wrist. Swivel waist. Cup joint articulation at the hips. Hinged joints at the knees. And articulated ankles. IMO- plenty of articulation for a guy in a suit.

great job on them both John they look great.

That's way more articulation than the old Nitto made SF3D/MaK kits. I love their funky old school WWII look. I take it there weren't any extra parts with it? no optional normal left arm?

It came with some extra glass for the helmet, but that was it.
