The three screen consoles will be making their first appearance this weekend in the monthly shop drop. To say the journey with these has been a bit of s headache would be an understatement. The shape works perfectly in the Galaxy People world, but isn’t particularly practical for sofubi, and a couple of compromises had to be made. Firstly, the thinness of the joint meant there was no space for a standard male to female joint. Had to go with glued as with the first console. Second problem was that thinness also created an issue where the legs would over time warp in, leading to instability. I played with a few different material fillers including lightweight expanding resin foam, but in the end just decided to just pour resin into the legs. It makes for a heavier ‘toy’ . Might upset the purists but problem solved, and i reckon it makes a great centerpiece for a sci-fi collection.
