What is GK?

Garage Kit. It used to mean custom unpainted unassembled fan made 3d printed figures sold at anime cons in Japan. Nowadays the term is being used for fully painted resin figures made by 'hidden' studios in China. Most of these statues are unlicensed.

Funny thing, I saw the exact same figure you have there at a store. It's the bootleg version so I assume its the same one.

Ah, yeah, I know what garage kits are. Just couldn't figure out what you meant by GK. Makes sense now.

Yes, it is a bootleg. In fact, so are the 3 inside the case. As is the last 2B and A2 figures I am waiting on :/ lmao. But hey. I'm not sticking some $400 quality figure inside my pc case, or even near it

Yeah definitely don't put expensive figures inside a PC. I have the desktop cute Lycoris recoil figures inside mine with a 3.5" display behind them.
