The Busou Shinki Trivia thread!

Post by Xehn » Tue Sep 15, 2009 2:08 pm

Little known facts about the toyline and Battle Rondo!

1) Did you know; The barrel of Strarf's grenade launcher can be removed?

2) Did you know; Eukrante's swords are supposed to double as guns according to her designer, but this ability was not implemented into the game?

3) Did you know; Between her in-game model and the real figure, there are several paint applications that the real Eukrante is missing; Purple arms, white wrist spacers, and white bands on her thighs. [LINK]

Not sure how "unknown" this is, as I figured it out just by fiddling with it:

Waffebunny's minigun can be separated into a total of 5 parts without damaging it:
Grip, ammo case, mid barrel, revolving barrel, and the stand bit (has no clue what the parts are actually called)
This may apply to a number of other parts/weapons but best not to force it too much as there's still a risk of parts breaking, of course...

here's a little tidbit i found on the designer's blog a while back, Graffias was originally meant to be some sort of cow girl.

That's not Graffias, that's a recolor of a Type Holstein that he designed. She and her normal color version are basically walking battery packs to recharge other shinki.

She...recharges them? Do I want to know how, or should I just let this one slide?

I have a bad feeling that you should pick the later. :maochao:
Now where did I put that Kanoka disk?

Dirty minds, both of you.

I'm not sure of the logistics involved, either.

Her bust is that large so she can store a bigger battery, though. *nod*

...Is that going to be the excuse for Graffias then? :D

So far, we've had energy storage and bouyancy tanks. What's gonna be the next rationalization?

AHA! Her tail must serve as some sort of power cable. Now to figure out where it plugs into on the other Shinkis. Maybe the back? :maochao:
