cool! love that walker!
-
haha! yeah I couldn't resist! it did put me out just a little but at the end of the day its only money and more always comes around.. and besides paying bills is overrated! oh I assure you I certainly was counting the seconds! it did cost me a bit but im glad I got the three of em! They look awesome on display! resist the urge to resist and buy one! you know deep down you want to! yeah its cos he made a cameo appearance in one of the Zero eps! LOL! jk.. yikes! bits falling off already! I guess it was inevitable.. I had a quick look at those parts on mine and they seem secure enough. I'll admit I don't really like those fan blade looking exhausts much but were they like that in the anime? I would have thought they would have been similar to the VF-1 exhaust tips..? hehe! there is nothing wrong with having a few extra! even I was thinking of picking up another just so I can play with it and still leave the other three on display! but yeah on the other hand they are still kinda pricey and there are other things I have my eyes on that I want to buy.. Scream Man was in the process of doing so and im sure we will see some pics very soon! Gerwalk is BOSS! and this thing can pull some pretty aggressive poses too!
-
that was the original reason that I decided on the Klingsbo over the Detolf but I never expected Valks to get so large! When I restarted collecting I was only going to stick the VF-1 but that didn't quite work out as planned! yes lots of tension relieved! The gun pod location was a bit of a stuff up! they could have made two different slots on the arms to mount the gun in different locations when either in fighter and gerwalk / battroid modes. The gun only needs to move about 10mm forward for fighter mode. its a shame the arrestor hook can't work as it should..
-
yeah I did try see what it was like with the head laser pointing forward but it doesn't really seem help much and I think it looks a lot cooler pointing rearward. The biggest problem are these crappy display cabinets! I should have gone with the Detolfs.. but seeing I now have a half dozen Klingsbo im sorta stuck with em.. I too have my VF-1D posed in gerwalk and you're right it does look pretty sweet in that mode!
-
ok so they are a little cramped but I am going to reorganize my display and have one next to Nora's SV-51 so they look like they are battling each other as in the anime! I managed to get the Zero in Battroid to fit but have to keep the feet retracted to their lowest setting and the head laser sticks back a bit far but at least it fits.. Loving these things to bits! Most transformation elements are very similar to a VF-1 which I like but they are a little more tricky and fiddly to do so.
-
well my fears have been confirmed, she doesn't fit between the shelves of my Ikea Klingsbo cabinets in Battroid mode! the only way she is gonna fit is with a really aggressive action pose which I will have to do some experimenting to find one that looks good enough to keep in.. Dang some of those joints are friggin tight!
-
So back home now and time to play around with my Zero's! As soon as I saw the Zero-D I knew I had to have three, one for each mode!
-
my babies finally arrived today! First impressions are.. OMG! they are stunning! Im really liking the color and they feel very solid too! Took them all out of the box for a quick inspection and all looks good! Will have a better look and attempt a transformation in a little while as I need to tip out for a bit.. Here are a few photos anyways!

Thats a crazy good deal Gakken!! Well done mate! -
Fantastic review! great photos and very informative! Can't wait to get mine today!

We have some very thin clear film at work which might be worth a try to apply over that part of the leg. I don't think a small clear patch will be that noticeable. My Zero's are on board with the courier driver for delivery today! Woo!

Hehe! hey that's cool! I can't thank you enough for all the cool stuff you threw my way! Its a shame the 25 broke to begin with but on the other hand its good it broke and you replaced it cos now I have it! Well my son will be taking it along with the 171's but at least you know they all went to a good loving home! The paint job looks really great too! and the panel lining is fantastic! Really adds to the whole look! The Alto colors make a perfect donor Valk for it I must say!
