Oh wow. Fighting and crying over preorders feel like only yesterday... is there any way I can get this now for a decent price?
-
May I ask how big a possible DX Chogokin Ghost X-9 would be and if it could be included as an accessory in a full-set pack?
-
I apologize if I got anyone's hopes up by bumping the thread, but I'd like to ask if there's still any chance that this could get announced this year. Are there any more upcoming events?
-
I took down my 1J to play with out of frustration of not getting the 1S... Out of curiosity, did they fix the loose intake covers in the later releases?
-
-
Haha, that's sadly my experience as well.
-
Do you guys know of any good browser add-ons or extensions that monitor a webpage for changes? Could be a great asset during times like these.
-
Damn, that's what I get for giving up F5ving. Will it come up again or will we just have to wait?
-
Sigh, got one in the cart at AmiAmi, but... Currently we do not have enough qty for this item to cover your order. Please go back to the cart, and process again. We apologize for any inconvenience.
-
I still don't understand why websites don't lock in your order when you have one in cart...
-
Sorry! I've been out of the loop with this series for quite a bit. If someone could give me a heads up on the quality of the series and what the difference is between all the iterations/versions of the VF-31, that would be phenomenal. Like, I get there's a version 1.2 and 1.3?
-
Is anyone else bothered by the long nose in Battroid mode? It does look to shrink somewhat in the line art and I'm way too used to Yamato's proportions where they rather successfully made the nose both shorter and thicker.
-
Noice!!! At this point, I just want to see dem official images!
-
In terms of non-aesthetic changes, I'm looking for ratchets in the legs and a much-improved head/neck articulation. I really hope the hinge/friction joints are strong enough this time. My Yamato's wings keep dipping.
-
If this follows the release schedule of the previous DX Chogokins, it should see a release next year, right?
-
Hm... I doubt they'll leave out the Super Parts, seeing that the YF-19 came with them and a Fold Booster. These look amazing. But what are the chances they'll make these improvements/changes?
-
I wouldn't be surprised if it were included as an accessory.
-
Regarding delimiter mode, I don't know how canon this is, but an attack animation from SRW Alpha does show him purging the limbs in fighter mode when activating it. Check out 40 seconds:
-
Okay, big question... are they going to try to pull of purged-limbs mode? Also, looking at the side view pics once again, I like how they managed to mitigate the thiccness of the thrusters by pushing it up as opposed to letting most of it hang off the bottom. That, and the fact that they managed to hide the feet from the rear is a rather nice touch. Here's hoping they managed to improve the head articulation, which was one of my main concerns with Yamato's 21.
-
With all the extra kibble on the backpack, I'm really curious to see a side view or bottom-up view of the Battroid to see how much the backpack is able to compress.
-
My guess would be that the FAST packs can transform themselves with a sliding/telescoping piece that extends or collapses. Still, I'm surprised that the extra panel goes into the backpack as opposed to folding in on itself into the hip guards.
-
I was actually hoping Bandai would have employed some clever technique to collapse the legs like what Takara did with Masterpiece Megatron. If you haven't seen the figure before, check out the 1:39 mark:
-
Indeed. Looking at the pictures closely now, it does look a little bit too fat in the rear for my liking.... The juxtaposition between the sleek fighter and chunky battroid is one of my favorite aspects of the YF-21 and Bandai looks to have sacrificed the fighter ala the V1 1/72 Yamato.

OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG! KITAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! キタ━━━(゜∀゜)━━━ッ!! DX CHOGOKIN YF-21!!! MY DREAM HAS COME TRUE! (TT.TT) Like with S.H.Figuarts Auto Vajin and Masterpiece Dinobot, I'm buying at least two. Only thing that annoys me are the markings. There are way, way too many of them and take away from the overall sleek, stealthy look of the YF-21.

Just got my VF-4 and I'm blown away. Solid, fun to play and pose this really is a great way to experience this Valk. Pity they didn't engineer the intake covers and trapdoors into it as that would pretty much make it a perfect transformer. While I'm really satisfied with the toy, I have some questions: - For the grey shoulder flaps/covers, how should they be positioned? Should the bottom panel be lined up with the top? Or should it sit at an angle? The line art looks to have them in different positions for Battroid and Gerwalk modes. - Which are the true elbow joints? For that matter, how should the forearms be aligned? If the line art/stock photo is to be followed, the elbow joints are super limited.
