Hello all I wanted to give you a small update/response about the colors.
1. I will start with the main one, seeing the results of the poll roughly 75% wanted white alphas so I decided to grant your wishes,I am aware of some of you liked the Galaxy blue ones a lot and I'm sorry that you wont be getting those in the base kit,but the blue alphas will be available in the Latin kit.
2. I've read all responses and some of you don't like/think the pink accent matches Rem's hair clip,which I too can see the ,problem with that is the color does not stay the same in every episode/figure of Rem so its kinda tough to get the one that most matches what it's supposed to be. Examples:
https://www.goodsmile.info/en/product/6256/Rem.html https://www.goodsmile.info/en/product/8731/Rem+Tea+Party+Ver.html In the anime its the same case some scenes are in the dark so it appears more violet some are in the sun and so on.What I'm thinking of doing is making the current pink color darker so it can be closer to more variants.Will keep you updated.
3.I made a mistake by choosing Pantone colors that end on U instead of C U stands for uncoated and C is Coated,I cannot get plastic chips if the color is Uncoated so will change every Pantone to the same but coated.

Coated colors seem to be more saturated and they do look better IMO,I will update the renders when I decide on the pink accent color change.
Also white Pantone will most likely just changed to stock GMK WS2 color.
4.Kinda a response I guess ? Just wanted to give my OPINION and what I believe is true on the statement that
-Pantone is used for digital work and not plastics/material uses
-GMK will convert Pantone to match the closest RAL
So Pantone is
https://www.pantone.com/about/about-pantone (not going to copy paste all that in here),Pantone can and is being used in plastics not only plastics but in textile and many other you can read more on their website. I want to point out i will be getting
PLASTIC PANTONE chips on hand to confirm the colors and they will be send to GMK to match.
About GMK matching Pantone to RAL I believe that statement is not true as stated by GMK:

Lastly about using a IRL figurine as a color matching tool IMO is a good idea but as showed in the examples for the Rem figures colors will be close but they will vary even if they are manufactured by the same company,for that reason I decided to pick colors straight from the anime I don't believe it is possible to get 100% correct color but I'm doing my best to be as close as possible to the original material.
TL DR I will not convert the Pantone colors to RAL,and for everyone worrying how will they turn out,I give a promise they will be as close as possible I will always keep you updated!
This is not a rant or taking jabs at anyone,just my opinion if you could prove me wrong I wont hesitate to admit I was wrong and convert the set to match RAL
