Js set + rama cap + U80A seq2 kuro with polished moon brass weight/plate is going to look absolutely killer once I get everything. I joined this hobby at the perfect moment

Lyle88 · « **Reply #223 on:** Fri, 27 November 2020, 20:59:02 »

Is there any chance the JS kit will end up using the updated hiragana moulds that Zamb has been talking about for serika2/striker2?

There's a bunch of small changes he's proposed - spacing, font etc. There's a pdf doc in his discord channel if you want to look.

I'm also interested in this. I'm currently thinking of grabbing JS kit extras, but I don't see a point in buying a set with outdated moulds.

Is it confirmed GMK is adopting these? The changes look good, I just find it hard to believe they'd undertake it without financial motivation.

andreiborisov · « **Reply #232 on:** Wed, 03 February 2021, 15:42:24 »

JS numrow renders are already showing those changes btw. Not sure, why.

They will be used for serika2 and striker2 I believe. Not sure if the moulds will be avail to all to use as the changes are something that was proposed by Zambumon. At least that's my understanding.

It would be a nice bonus but regardless this set is gonna be NOIIICE. Kinda feel like these caps should go on on a plastic board for the full retro vibe

Tbh the changes are not substantial, every other Latin/hiragana has used the current moulds until now. I don't think you should let this stop you buying the kit.

Haha, yes, you're definitely right. It's more of a psychological thing: there are too many good sets so I use nitpicks like that when trying to decide which one to skip.

Congrats on the successful run!

I got extras of JS and RAMA, they will form my main set <3 Honestly, I personally have no preference in regard to the version of the Hiragana legends, but will take the updated ones any day

Exceptional work!

Mr_BeastQuake · « **Reply #246 on:** Sun, 20 June 2021, 08:44:11 »

At this point adding 6 months to their quoted ETAs probably gets you in the ballpark. I understand GMK is trying to estimate dates 1.5 years out so it’s difficult to be accurate but they are batting near zero for getting delivery dates even close to correct.

Seem relatively sure of that date, maybe they're really only able to give a worthwhile estimate of finalized production dates a month or so out.
