    Thanks TwoDucks. Is it possible to tighten up the screws again or are the ball joints becoming hopeless now?
  2. jenius
    Seems hypocritical to say 'I easily and accidentally broke the ankles on my toy.... But easily fixed it' and then point to another toy which might get loose but could easily be fixed and thump your chest and cry.

    They were blacklisted recently as being non responsive. If you don't hear from them in a couple weeks and don't get your item be sure to let people know.

    Yep, i was the only one who broke their 19, it wasn't something yamato's own employees did with some frequency and not a durability issue they themselves admitted needed to be corrected in the next variant. It was totally wrong of me to draw attention to it and your completely reasonable in your assessment. It's also good to hear that the people complaining about loose ankles have all admitted it was from mishandling. As to the 29, I've handled mine, it has been fine. If mine ever gets sloppy I'll be sure to document it and explain how to resolve it, if it can be easily rectified.

    I would only consider reducing my score if it proves the joints are hard to snug back up. Usually i've been able to resolve such problems with little effort. If the 29 proves to need more substantial effort that'd be worth knocking it down a notch. Should I also be knocking down the vf19k because od the ankles? Both my 19 and 29 were solid last time I handled them. I should have them back out again when the 29's fast packs come out

    Ha, I'm going through exactly the same paces right now. Now that the Macross well is relatively dry I'm trying to go back and get some of the larger VOTOMS toys and finding myself asking the same questions. This might help you out, go to Yamato's website: http://www.yamato-toys.com/items/goods_list.php?gid=60&cid=115 That's the VOTOMs section. You can then scroll and check out the release order. The more recently it came out the more improvements it will have. Based on Yamato's page I have a question, was there a Brutish Dog release that came bundled with the Falyna figure? I apologize if I just murdered her name, it's been a while since i watched the show.

    Mac+ has its flaws but is overall very good. Much more coherent than MacrossZero and not as familiar to the Macross universe as Macross II.

    I'd be all over a new Jokemachine but I don't think I'd purchase this. It would kind of fall into the keychain/tchochke no man's land for me.

    What do you think of the XTS that's coming out next year? I've heard lots of comments both very pro and very con. For my part, I think it's a huge improvement from the current STS.

    oh... that looks.... lame. The Space Helicopter in Southern Cross may never have had its rotors deployed in space... but that doesn't stop it from looking like a helicopter in space.

    Very interesting video review! Just goes to show you how much things that don't matter to some can completely ruin a toy for others. Who would have thought a little release agent would cause that sort of reaction? I hope he steers clear of Bandai's DX toys.

    Collection 4 boxes are 25x15x10CM. The ideal would be to get an unopened box but if you have to open all of them in search of your YF-19s I'm sure we could still work something out.
  14. jenius
    get lots of boxes, once you have your 19 sell me one of the other boxes!
  15. jenius
    I've been looking for a box of series 2 for the longest time... they seem hard to come by.

    If anyone wants to sell me a Double Nuts or Bird of Prey at a reduced price (or trade for VF-22S toys) let me know. I'm not a huge fan of the toy but would like to revise my YF-19 post on anymoon.com and include at least one of those birds.
  17. jenius
    In this industry, if there's enough demand a reissue generally happens. These toys selling for twice MSRP make me suspect that we'll probably see a bundle release with Super Parts early next year. Just a guess of course. -

    I hit the + icon for Sketchley's comment as I concur completely. Not an original enough sequence of events and poor decisions relating to the characters. On a separate level, the English dub is DREADFUL, Macross Plus is many times better. EDIT - while some of the MACII designs appeal to me more than others, I am bummed there aren't quality toys for many of them.

    It's very unlikely anything will change. Have you tried tightening a screw or adding some resistance?

    I stuck through Claymore to the end... which was surprising considering how horrid the boy's voice is to my ears. It definitely improved a lot once we got Claire's backstory. I didn't feel satisfied with the ending though although that's par for the course with me and anime. Now to figure out what's next...

    Hey, don't talk back to Eugimon. Respect his argument to keep this thread all about the pictures. Take a break and look at all the pictures he's posted in this thread and you'll start to understand why he cares so much about you polluting this thread with your opinions. When you're done looking at all of those, here's another one of the GBP Exclusive in action:

    man... I'll probably wait and get this, the VF-25 V2, and the VF-19K sound booster all in one shipment.
  23. jenius
    What's the release date on those super parts?
  24. jenius
    Us only... But right side drive?

    Did the LAF land with a thud? I remember some press for it a while ago, mostly along the lines of "what is Toyota thinking?" since it was at the time when they were being sued left and right for stuck accelerators and the global economy appeared destined for a long downward spiral.
