I don't have the Arcadia, but I do have the old Yammies. From reports, they're basically the same quality. The old Yammies-v2s were very tight and will give you that uneasy feeling that you may break it or something. Lots of people here over the years have been surprised how scary tight the 1/60v2s are. That said, the 1/60v2 is very light when naked. However, attach the FPs and then you get the heft. Still not gonna be as hefty or even as heavy as a DX Chogokin or a SOC, but it'll be hefty enough. The plastic quality ain't model-kit quality. It's quite thicker and stronger. It's just different from Bandai's stuff. Again from reports here, the only valk that feels like a model-kit (aside from the actual macross model-kits) is the Evolution Toys VF2-SS. The Yammie GU-11 gunpod is not flimsy, so I'm a bit surprised that your Arcadia GU-11 is. Unless you just didn't quite pull and push/lock the grip when extended. However the default hands can be "flimsy" to some people. The wrist-joints, especially. If they are, then you can just simply swap it with the included solid hands. Also, the old yammie-v1 have had significant diecast parts (both legs, iirc) compared to the v2, so yeah, the v2's lightness will be a surprising feel if your only experience is from the old v1. The v1 was heavier than the 1/48, iirc. edit: also forgot to mention that, yeah, the sticker-shock of the current Arcadia-pricing does not really help in the satisfaction dept.

Seems like only the Draken and the Dougram got sold out at ami. In contrast, both Gundam 78s and all the SHFs preorders are still up and available. Good job, guys!

I just received my Ultimate GD and I must say that this UGD is rather quite nice. Fwiw, I never own any previous GD versions. Joints are tight. Very solid figure. Mine don't seem to have the grease, paint-smell and smudge issues that yt-reviewers have noted. Quality and stability is about the same as my old Cherno, which means it seems quite very good. At least, so far. Still, it's a NECA product so just hoping nothing breaks off soon after this posting. Nice accessories and light-up feature for a US$22 mecha figure. Dunno why the batteries were already installed, but it's all good. As such, for an "Ultimate" GD version, not quite sure why it doesn't include the boat... Anyway, quick shot with my old Cherno Alpha and CT's possibly moar awesome ancestor... http://i.imgur.com/ssKlzkxl.jpg

Not quite sure if that's such a good idea for now, as the box-art from Arcadia might just have the wrong shade hue colors...

^^ Yeah. This HMR-Dougram move is much more like a long overdue love letter to FASA and the BT/MW fans from Bandai...
