  2. Your skin is weak! I’ve trained so that mine is like steel. Also, I can no longer move.
  3. I dunno man, my Max YF-29 is vastly better off with the chest lock and hip ratchets than my two previous YF-29’s.
  4. The revivals have hip ratchets and battroid chest locks that the renewals do not, so it's possible.
  5. For me it depend on two things: 1) fix the hip collapsing in battroid without spacer, and 2) fix the tolerance of the integrated back brace so the back of the gerwalk doesn’t droop. That would be a sale.
  6. Are these fold boosters single-use? Even if not they seem to get ejected before combat. How are these fighters supposed to return from the decapitation strike missions that some of them (YF-19 etc) are designed for?
  7. Kinda. It's a lot of engineering for a pair of legs to turn into a different looking blob.
  8. I have no idea how they would perform against each other - it's not particularly relevant or interesting. I was referring to design: how good-looking both forms are, and the smoothness of the transformation process.
  9. Pretty much any transforming in Gundam is half-assed.
  10. This "Gundam" disparity is somewhat mitigated in my mind because the Federal standard units (VF-24 and others, presumably) are supposed to be wtfcrazypowerful, at least according to the background information that you've mentioned in the past. All these "super" fighters are just playing catch-up with Earth standard tech, right? (I don't necessarily believe the background info jives with the narrative intent on screen, but that's a separate issue.)
  11. Anyone seen this? Looks quite premium. Have you ever heard of Moshowtoys?
  12. I actually like this color better than Keith's, but not enough to double dip on the -262.
  13. I actually really like that pattern. If I hadn't seen it before I could accept that it was a part of the design in the first place. Looks like a heat vent or something.
  14. Interesting story. I thought the multidrones primarily provided civilian defense. Were they also intended for aerial combat between fighters, or was that some sort of improvised “off-label” use by Arad?
  15. And YF-39 Sword of Omens.
