Got it! as soon as I rip the discs I'll see if any of my bizarre media player boxes will disable them and let you guys know if possible.

Happy with the artbook, I don't recall ever seeing a good percentage of this production art. I have the Japanese DVD and Blu-Ray box, the two "this is animation" art books and some of this stuff I have never seen before. Now the hard subs of course are an atrocity...... Hoping to actually be satisfied with the Japanese DYRL 4K Blu-Ray, but we all know how terrible the video quality looked last time on the standard Blu-Ray. Fearful it will be a smoothed out AI mess.

"- The English subtitles are always on when you switch to the Japanese audio track. You can't turn them off" What a total autrocity! Same master as the Japanese blu-ray right? Glad I still got my import set At least the book is cool, not much in the way of artbooks for M+

Anyone that may have ordered from Anime Export. Have you heard anything back other than: Thank you very much for sending me the pictures, We will transmit them to the manufacturer and let you know as soon as we receive the replacement part. I'm cool if Bandai is ignoring them, but at least let me know... Been exactly 3 weeks.

"Did several passes of heat gun followed by quickly clamping with a non-textured plastic clamp" Ha, Yeah, don't be like me

Strange thing is mine friction fit pretty well, after seeing this post I removed them and reinserted a few times and no problem.

Fire the whole assembly line!!!!!

Seriosly dude...... You got FIVE of them? Bless ur heart!

Crazy! I was working tons of OT when I got my YF-21, so when it arrived I didn't have much time to check it out. I brought it to work for a few days and just marveled at the engineering. I work at an aeronatical college and I had to fight off the "let me see it requests ^_^" LOL, I don't think the average person really gets what goes into the design of these "Airplane Transformers"

That's what I keep telling myself Happy Little Accidents..... I got the meme wrong.

I should have left well enough alone..... It looked fine, but after a 13 hour day yesterday (I work in IT). I tried to get it Oshan OCD perfect, it got too hot and the tweezera/clamps marred the plastic, same pattern on both sides Chalk it up to a happy little mistake as it kinda now looks more like a "laser emitting protrusion on top of a stealth aircraft" circa January 2040.

It sure did!

Using a heat gun and self clasping tweezers on the head laser worked really well for me. https://x.com/oshanruiz/status/1813748479149158882

Thank you kind sir!

To remove the head laser, do you just pull it up? Or do you guys suggest I heat the part that clamps the sides with a heat gun on low? I won't bother uploding a picture of mine, looks like everyone elses.... I agree with it being an issue at the factory, looks like they pulled the piece out of a mold when it was still warm. If anyone has ever done resin casting, you really gotta wait until pieces fully cure before you pull them out of one part of a two part mold or they will misform (bend), especially flat pieces like swords.
