  1. fwiw re: bent lasers... Beginning to seem like it's really at the Factory assembly packing stage for both when and where the head-laser bending/breakage happens. The clamshell's got suffiicient clearance and firmness, and the valk is quite snugly fit. At least on mine. Still, Bandai could've at least included and packed an extra head-laser to mitigate this issue...
  2. DHL delivered mine today, after miserably failing yesterday. The head laser on mine is fine: whew! Damn Schroedinger Bandai...
  3. Clearly Bandai's unsurpassed design and engineering at their very best...
  4. OMG! That's the most Robotech thing to do ever! ROFLMAO!!! I really do pity the hapless reviewers for following that...
  5. latest from heppoko samurai... https://x.com/simsim5479/status/1807715271794454900 web-translated: Clck on his twitter link for full-scale pics and to help him earn twitter-bucks...
  6. this one seems newly posted and japan-based: https://x.com/himajinFigNeo/status/1807583253374878061 web-translated: Incidentally, are the the "bends" specifically that way? I haven't seen a posted bent-laser that isn't like that, yet.
  7. Aww, that sux! Were you able to communicate with HLJ regarding their response to this issue? Mine seems to have just landed at LA earlier, per DHLtracking. Expecting delivery tomorrow and really pryaing I don't get upsettingly Bandai'ed with a rather expensive toy...
  8. Well, somebody was bound to try this mode after the HMR VF-0A... https://x.com/otoha_42d/status/1807460236485431629
  9. https://x.com/MTM_025_8_S04/status/1807322194248388844 web-translated: add: snapshot from the BD (upped exposure and saturation since the native shot was too dark for details):
  10. Robolabo posted another retro-review:
  11. Yotsuba Toy Club posted their review (enable CC option for language subs):
  12. Those VF-1's at the back in @Mog;s old pic are the 1/48s. His 1/60v1 Max-1A at the front is the correct scale to pit against his YF-19 and YF-21, which are both 1/60, too.
  13. Do you mean like this? https://x.com/Fhima2/status/1807043270016720983 web-translated: -- Also, Wotafa will have to wait for his own YF-21 a bit later to review, it seems... https://x.com/wotakufighter/status/1807226193130991640
  14. hot from the oven, Bandai HG-comparo... https://x.com/simsim5479/status/1807248926388691302 web-translated:
  15. heads up! some new disturbance in the force... https://x.com/nseman/status/1807039563397017672 web-translated: As usual, click on the twitter-link for full-scale versions of the pics,
  16. hmm. Think they're about the same height and volume differences as our original Yammie YF-19 and YF-21 from years ago... DX YF-19 vs DX YF-21 from https://x.com/hyogetu_japan/status/1807211868878164343 from https://x.com/simsim5479/status/1806986792094335020 As usual, click on the respective twitter-links for full-scale versions of the pics.

  18. Don't want to clutter this thread with non-Robotech stuff, but your best bet for Yamarcadias is to check out the What's Next for Arcadia thread. The Strike Hikaru and Strike Roy reissues are both scheduled later this year.
  19. Good to know! Thanks!
  20. Great mini-review, @Actar! Unfortunately, that back-to-back battroid side shot is totally unfavorable to the DX. Seems Bandai engineers and designers just did their usual "good-enough" effort. It's clearly not even symmetrical! Based on MarkH's video, that Battroid-brace is quite dumb to be a separate accessory: The pilot-seat has so much unncessary finagling: The lock-pin seems necessary only for Fighter-mode, as it needs to be removed for Gerwalk-mode to compress/accordion the engines and stuff forward. Hacchaka pointed out Gerwalk mode is already unstable due to being back-heavy: https://hacchaka.net/archives/52110508.html That said, my order seems still stuck in a DHL plane, as no updates on the tracking since yesterday. Guess no Saturday-delivery for me.

  22. ahem... it's grey enuff to be Roy. Just add Strike-FP...
  23. Any way to alleviate that drag besides not installing the gunpod?
  24. Appreciate the comparo-pics, but TZ's chest on those pics really does remind me of Leifeld's drawing shenanigans...
  25. from https://x.com/neco_DXY/status/1806859640241803395 web-translated: downscaled sample: go to his twitter-page to get his pics at full-scale... edit: Ya know? That huge hanging backpack reminds me of Happosai's looting image...
