Holy crap! What does the "Raw" photo of that toy look like? My Mom wandered by, saw the photo, and asked me if that "toy" I had was actually a real plane based on this "photo."
-
I could see this being a huge problem. My Ozma's is pretty loose. My Alto is a lot more tight though. I don't care for the super packs or the armor so it doesn't affect me but this is definitely sloppy and I could see it being an issue for a lot of other people who are fans.

I thought the 19A was still in the same body style as the YF-19? The Raven's style wouldn't work on the later body styles. An 11 would look really cool though.

Why the fences and plugs?

Looks like I got lucky too. I didn't bother to start really looking for these toys until 2008-2009 as well.

How do you define "low viz? The VF-1 has had three so far between the original 1S low Viz, the VFX and now Cavaliers. Gamlin's 22 is essentially low viz. All 17's are low viz technically. The only VF-4 we have now is practically low viz. What sort of paint scheme are you looking for really?

...I ...want... one..!
-
Good photos Veef. That almost makes me want a set now and I don't even like the way the armor looks.
-
They're re-releasing super parts... maybe they'll re-release stands too.
-
I'm just waiting on my shipment now.

I wonder if the white will offset that shininess of make it worse?
-
To be honest the actual transformation/mechanism is pretty simple/straightforward if you really look at it. The problem is that,by the anime design, it's propped up at two very small spots. I'm just curious how they'll hold up. Dunno how many wil even bother with modes other than Fighter for this one so it might only be me and one other guy who are ever bothered by this.
-
There's actually a few spots I'm concerned about loosening. In addition to where the hips attach to the... well, crotch I guess, there's also the bottom part of the thigh that attaches to the lower half of the leg and has to flip up/down between Fighter and Gerwalk/Battroid. That piece is painted diecast from the looks of it. I'm wondering if it's somehow ratcheted or if it's just friction. Those two pieces keep the ENTIRE bulky upper body stable and are very important. I'm also wondering how the legs will turn in and outward. Will that flip-up piece also be able to swivel or will all motion be handled at the hip joints?
-
I was looking back at the photos again and those thighs on ball joints are pretty much going to have to be completely rotated around between fighter and the other modes. I hope they don't become loose too easily. They're pretty much what's propping up all of that giant upper body.

But you don't update it every day like you're supposed to...
-
Kind of interesting that the VE and the 1D both got parts that color match their valks but the Super/Strike set is coming with a dark grey variety when in reality ALL of the DYRL Valks have the same sort of white/grey tone and could be easily color matched as well.

24K a semester!!! Holy crap. I only paid $2500 a semester at New Mexico Tech.
-
He just didn't want to hear you bitch about it later. That's what I used to do with my brother. LOL
-
Woo, you see that price on the VE? Strong yen, weak dollar. $224 now. When I got mine a few years back it was a (for the time) steep $165.

It's a bummer some of you guys have to sweat buying this toy. I know, even though I'm in no danger (right now) I still find myself going back and looking at the five pictures a few pages back multiple times daily. I'm happy with how it looks and am excited to play with it/discover how it transforms. That has helped me justify the price in my mind... or possibly hype myself up to ridiculous levels. That being said, I've always been under the impression that if you want to buy something but you have a doubt that means you don't really want it and you should wait.
-
I have none. If I had bought two or three maybe, but not for one.
-
As far as i can tell the only issue he could have is that the Strike Cannon is on the left instead of right side. Or maybe the fact this thing is posed with both the Super/Strike Pack and Stands, neither of which you can find for sale anymore,.
-
Post pics of both. We've hardly seen ANY of those Regult kits either.
