Bad Coloring

Okay, if you're a perfectionist, you'd realize that that chest armor is a little imperfect (metal color seems to be uneven and 'smudged' a little) compared to Saber Alter. I was wondering if anyone has the same problem? I saw from the picture that it has the similar defects as well.

The Swords...

I too was stand corrected with the swords, at first I thought that the well designed sword was Excalibur, but it was in fact Calibun,the sword that chose the next King. It was when I vaguely translated the accessories included in behind the box.

Though I do think Calibun is much better designed than that of Excalibur. Guess you can't count value just by the looks ne?

If you think about it, the design in the swords actually does make sense. Caliburn, otherwise known as the Sword in the Stone, is all about looks. It's the sword that chooses the next king, and is the sword that the king holds while on the throne. One would think it's the sword that the king uses for ceremonies and other such things. It'd be good for it to look nice.

Excalibur, however, is a sword meant to be carried into battle. I doubt that Arthur's enemies would care about seeing intricate gold inlays and inset gems on the sword that was being pushed through their stomachs.
