Berserk Collectibles Show Us Some Berserk/Manga Disscussion

[Khaos]

Thanks!
I get this question a lot, haha. I've taken some photos to try to explain properly. There's some yarn crossed around the notch under his removable chest piece, which then goes around the outside of his cape collar, hangs down and is tied around the sword. It used to simply be tied around the outside of his cape collar, HOWEVER, this caused the cape to contact Gut's head sculpt and actually caused staining, which took me a month of acne cream application to remove, so do not do it that way! Putting it under that detachable armour piece on the front stops the string from pulling the cape against his sculpt.

You could also just tie string around his neck peg and attach the sword to that, but that causes the collar to be pulled down at the back and doesn't look as good.

Thanks for the tips, dude!! Gonna try this out

Very nice but hold on a second. You can get that nasty staining off with acne cream? Give me the deets on that if you could please

I did that on mine actually , threaded some yarn through the hook on the Dragonslayer and then tied it around the neck peg. You gotta watch out though because as soon as you push down the head the yarn is gonna shorten and you don't want the Dragonslayer to rest too tight or too loose on the body.

You can. Be very careful though! If you're doing this with a character like Guts, who has a sort of tint to his skin and a subtle black wash, it can result in the acne area being lighter than the original skin tone. I think if it's a light skinned character with no paint applied, it's safer. The front of Guts is fine, but the skin became lighter in a couple of areas of his neck because it faded the wash. It didn't do this everywhere though. The acne cream also faded away the bottom right of his brand, so I do NOT recommend applying to any figures that have surface decals ( I did very carefully apply with a tooth pick to avoid the actual brand and tried to just get the dyed parts, but it still faded a little regardless) I have a custom head ordered, which is why I took the risk experimenting with the stock head and wasn't too annoyed about things fading.

I applied a little cream to each area every morning, then wiped it away in the evening and applied more at night. Did that for about three weeks.
Guts was particularly bad because he had cape damage, plus black scuffing from falling from the shelf due to loose joints. He was one of my first 1/6 and I didn't know anything about dye transferring to figures or the need to wash capes, so I had his collar up high, touching his face for a long time.

They nailed this. Absolutely incredible! Griffith looks breathtaking and Guts looks Godly. All I can think now is, Threezero is probably pissed they didn't do it first I'm a 1/6 collector first and foremost, I kind of want to wait until April 30th to see what 3Z is cooking up for Berserk figures.... buuuuut will order SHF Guts anyway because wow. He looks amazing and I want him on my desk!

Woah!!! Resurrection griffith! With weird horse! Awesome. What do they mean by starters? Can’t wait for threezero stuff.

Presumably, and hopefully, more to come. Knowing SHF, they'll expand to sooo many characters. I lost count of how many DBZ characters they've made.

 

[Bornz0r]

They look incredible...

 

[Darthy]

Both figures look amazing, shf is one of the best lines for sure

 

[Klornamafern]

What the hell that looks sick!! I did not expect that to look soooo good! I love the way they made Griffith look, of course I love Guts also but DAMN! Please, for the love of god ThreeZero give us Band of the Hawk Griffith and Casca PLEASEEEEEEEEE! It would look killer in 1/6 I can only imagine

 

[WhoaItsJBot]

These companies really seem to hate the Golden Age Band of the Hawk characters.

 

[Dellyboy]

New figuarts guts and griffith announced!

Well prime one did golden age casca and I think this is the first rebirth griffith figure we got. That last one was golden age.

Oh wow! I didn’t realise the cape can stain the skin, so I just checked and mine suffers from staining…


What product did you use? The link takes me elsewhere, maybe because I’m UK based.

I read a lot of people use OXY10 in the USA which isn’t available here. It seems 10% Benzol Peroxide is hard to find here in UK.

In terms of lightening the skin, I can’t quite make it out in your pictures, did it lighten it loads? You think doing a dark wash will blend it back? I’m so annoyed this has happened to my sculpt… I wouldn’t have had it touching if I knew!
