For the size of this Thread, Sentinel could have designed fully articulated hands. Also missiles should be included by default, for this price, without considering the notion of "store exclusive" or not "store exclusive".

Considering its size, it would be great if the Ride Armor from Moshow Toys had articulated fingers. The elephant feet look a bit strange, maybe for more posing stability (?) For the rest, this toys looks great. Also, it does not have weird pants/pyjamas, so that's much better ! 😀

I used this tool to reduce the thickness of the part shown in red frame, in order to have more clearance and make everything align correctly. Any other equivalent tool ou sanding tool can do the job. As you can see, it is not perfect, but the result is fine for me. I also used this same tool to reduce the thickness of the wing pegs. Again, if you plan to do this, do it little by little and check the result, in order not to get the issue become worse...

On my copy, the canon still goes downward even the arm panels are slided to the max position. One solution is to do some sandings. For the price, this is unacceptable from Bandai. This is not a plug-and-play toy, but a plug-and-sand-before-play toy !!!

I was still not happy concerning the mis-aligning canons issue. So here what I did : sanding again, little by little, and check the result each time. It is long but I managed to get quite a good result. On the first pic, you can see were I did the sanding.

For me the main problem comes from the new design of the arms. The "origami" style design would require more attention to avoid all these QC issues. For the price and for what we would expect, this is quite disappointing.
-
That is what I have tried to explain previously. In most videos, we can clearly see this issue. The gun is pointing downwards and is wabling, because no additionnal peg to maintain it or design issue.
-
The new design of the arm makes the gun wabling and adds gaps. Bandai should have added an extra knob or something like that to make the gun remain at its correct place.

According to some forums, this company has been created by some ex-employees from Nippon Yasan. They still have my money from my 2020 pre-order of 4 SSP + other stuffs (equiv. to +500USD). The pre-order for VF 31-AX and VF-25 are available on their shop, but I am not confident because of my own (and very bad) experience with NY and because I hate NY.
-
As for my Super Parts order, Nippon-Yasan doesn't hear anything and keeps asking me to open tons of useless tickets. I have contacted PAYPAL to request a refund. If credits go to store, I may expect same issue and waste time.

I have pre-ordered 4 SSP in 2019. So far, no news. I have contacted support, opened many tickets, no update. Then I have pre-ordered 4 SSP in 2020. So far, no news also. They keep asking me to open a new ticket, in order the support reply to my previous ticket. I needed to open a ticket so that they reply to my previous ticket. That is CRAZY ! NY is just a thief...

Thank you. I Pre-ordered 1 from AE.
