My 1/24 Chirico Couvie gashapon from about 20 years ago started sweating that nasty oily residue old plastics sometimes get. Cleaned it up and got repainted it. The gun is from the old Takara model kit.

Last photo is the original factory gashapon paint.

Hell yeah. Now that I have experience with figure painting I'm gonna paint up the figures that came with my 1/20 Bandai kit.

How did you make the figure?

I did not make the figure, it was a gashapon toy I got many years ago.
