Poseidon CERUBERUS ( Model Kit )
 
Hey guys. I just wanted to know if anyone has ordered the Poseidon CERUBERUS ( Model Kit ) from WGC. Im thinking of ordering it and i was wondering if anyone has put it together and if they had any problems with it fitting and so on. The gun looks pretty sweet and i would mind having it.

Its the gun from the Gungrave series and here is the link for those who dont know what the gun looks like:

Thanks
Iggy

resin is quite a pain in the ass to work with
if you dont mind lots of putty/sanding/paint work to make it look good, go for it

I too have thought about ordering a TM g26 (all and all a reliable gbb) for this purpose, but with shinjins comment. It would seem this is more of a collecter item than a useable yet rare GBB. (the darigenr i see no problems with, and would apreacate any feed back regarding)

you're nuts if you want to bring a bloody deringer to a game

unless you really HAVE to have the model and are willing to put in a LOT of work (and posess the required skill) into getting it to look the part, dont do it

these resin "garage kits" are for all intents and purposes, a scale model kit for the most hardcore fans of the anime series'

Iggy, the kit is VERY plasticky, and not really practical for skirmishes due to its size, and the weakness of the gun at the handle. (Fun to paint though...if you like painting models)

Large cumbersome gun + small plastic handle = break under real-world application.

As Shinjin mentioned, it's moreso for fans of the anime series than for actual use in airsoft.

Shinjin's got it.
And for the record: Resin is a bitch.

Thanks guys. Yeah I had thought about it being pretty weak due to the plastic. Looks like Ill be puttin all that money towards some upgrades and more gear
