  1. I just noticed this discussion. I am not sure why people are having problems scratching anything up or gouging plastic? The swing bar swing down and then forward. Rotate the hips back the absolutely farthest they can go then let the bar swing forward. When transforming back, rotate the hips as far forward as they go, let the bar swing back half way, rotate the hips back as far as they will go again, then complete rotating the bar back. It's relatively simple. you just have to pay attention to the mechanism and look ahead a little bit.
  2. One of the other chaps on here already said they knew somebody on the inside who was aware of their plans and they were very happy with what Arcadia was working on in relation to Macross.

    That would be the first YF-29 color scheme I'd be interested in.
  4. I think a lot of us were waiting for a VT-1 reissue. That was one of very few releases I had to skip.
  5. I can't speak on the actual gameplay of the new Metal Gear game but as someone with very little time at home I'd prefer a 5-6 hour game with excellent game play to some thirty hour slog or nonsense multi-player.
  6. I'll try to keep it on topic and get away from this Muv Luv nonsense. This Valk NEEDS to happen. Love it. I want one of these too, provided it isn't the M3 version (which I hate.) SR-71 like all the way for me.
  7. Max's SDFM VF-1A and DYRL VF-1S are both safe and they came out the same time as his DYRL VF-1A so it should be safe. That's the only Max I don't own.... that may change now.
  8. Sony ruined a good competition between Nintendo and Sega and I've never bought any Playstation because of it.
  9. That's odd, I didn't have any problems with my 11C staying on the stand for extended periods.
  10. Just be careful to dust them as soon as possible. They can be difficult to clean if you leave it a little while.
  11. Look at that very last pic. See how far forward on the toes the 19P is. That's what I mean by tenuous. It's VERY easy to knock it forward. By contrast that YF-19 has it's feet tucked under enough that it can stand comfortably. If you click the calfs forward and crank your ankles all the way back you CAN make your 19F/S/P look like the YF-19, but the ankles will forever be loose like on my 19S.
  12. So what I'm gathering is there are a lot of people coming out of the woodwork who are envious others here make more money then they do and are blaming Yamato for catering to the "elite." If you're going to take that route I'll say maybe should have payed attention during school/got some decent scholarships and got a real, useable degree so you could afford this stuff? I wasn't born rich, and certainly can't hold a flame to Kicker's collection, but I do alright, have multiples of many Valks and in no way feel like Kicker is some sort of elitist-douche among us... he's quite lovely really.
  13. You don't have twelve more to fidget with if you lose that one? ;0)
  14. Nobody ever said an aggressive stance would ruin the ankles. What I insist is that the ankles suck and that Gerwalk is at best tenuous. Also we're in agreement, better/deeper intake/thigh extension, stiffer ratchets and better ankle joints. That's exactly the problem with this Gerwalk.

    Maybe part of the "egg carton" isn't blocked on the bottom of the craft and the missiles are fired from the lower aft ports when stowed?
  16. Preparation. That means either/or new things they're working on aren't at a point they can show anything or license transferal takes time.
  17. Renato is right. In order to get that neutral stance with the 19's ankles you pretty much have to jam them back to the point where you've damaged them.
  18. I wonder if people aren't quite attaching their legs right in Fighter mode? I clearly have taken photos of the fighter on the Launch Arm Stand, which does nothing to support the legs at all, and they don't droop and the packs don't fall out at all. Unless I've just got lucky. I know when my D came in the package it wasn't quite transformed correct and the legs didn't feel like they would attache all the way but I transformed it once and then back again and it's been stable since. You have to be absolutely sure the legs are rotated correct at the thigh. If it's off by a small hair it will feel like it's snapped into place but won't actually be. The legs on my D definitely stay put.
  19. Why would they "reissue" the V2 VF-1's? It's the same owner of the company as Yamato and they already reissued 30th anniversary VF-1's, lots of varieties, as Yamato this past year that have sold out most places. They're already aware of how they sell.
  20. To be honest I don't think the YF-19 is a good deal at $280. The engineering on it so bad. It feels like an antique compared to even the V2 VF-1's.
  21. Hmm, I've never held the 17 in a position where the legs were to droop down but it was on a yamato stand in fighter and I never had any issues with the legs drooping in the back. Are you sure you have the legs locked in place correct? It can be a little finicky.
  22. Buy it, i think the chance of missing parts is relatively low.
  23. It really doesn't make sense that they wouldn't renew it. The 30th Anniversary VF-1's are selling out pretty fast and those molds were paid for a long time ago. Hell, slow sales of the the 17 and 19 might not affect them at all because of how the VF-1's sell. Plus they know the VF-4 is pretty popular so it wouldn't make sense to stop using that mold either.
  24. It's interesting. They don't lock in but once I got the bits in the legs adjusted properly they've stayed up without slipping once since it arrived the beginning of January.
