Finally received my super parts. It's very tight and hard to snap-in the wings onto the super parts (in red). And it's very loose on the green. Keep falling while installing them.

Yeah, finally successfully added into cart and check out VF-25 WWM from Amiami.

Thanks for sharing the photo. Looks good on Arcadia! Love your photo.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Appreciate it.

I did. I would say once you use it for the display don't touch it. Mine has been cracking due to low quality of PLA I guess. Or maybe I have applied too much of force on the screws during tightening process.

Hey guys, hope you guys are doing well and staying safe. I am sorry, probably this is considered an old thread already but I wanted to buy SV-51 Ivanov use. I can't make up mind to get Arcadia one or old Yamato. I searched over the Internet, some said the Arcadia joints are better but also at the same time I am confused as some of the collectors also mentioned that it is equal loose as Yamato. What I found out are: 1. Arcadia has diecast parts. 2. Arcadia has better cavity to fill up gaps and holes. 3. Arcadia has no stand, stand purchase separately. 4. Yamato has gap everywhere on the fighter mode. 5. Yamato has loose joints and no diecast part. 6. Yamato has display stand included. 7. Price is cheaper on Yamato one Brothers here who are having both Arcadia and Yamato, can share some lights? Especially the joints performance. And I saw a lot Acardia is having issue with the both left legs. Can anyone share the picture if it can still stand by itself without a display stand? I actually came across a local store selling off slightly cheaper Arcadia one with both left legs issue. Is it worth to buy? If the leg issue not obvious on fighter mode, I am considering it over Yamato. Many thanks!

And yes, 1 hour later, out of the blue I went into Amiami and saw it's opened for pre-oder. I got it finally. My first successful PO from Amiami. Hopefully they don't cut me away when it releases.

I tried to PO at Amiami. Was standby in front of the desktop 1 hour before 1pm Tokyo time. The system was having heavy load. Right before 1pm Tokyo time, Amiami website back to normal. I was happy for a moment. At 1pm, I can load the page and add into the cart. Then pooooffffff it said order is closed. It was less than 30 seconds!

Love the box art design.

It was a failed removal. I used WD40 multi lubricant, I thought it can remove. Then I use small amount of alcohol also failed. Probably I rubbed to hard.

Yeah, thanks for hearing me out. Can't replace it anymore as I've destroyed some paints while trying to remove the glue stained.

Thought of sharing. Got mine yesterday and opened up today. Unfortunately, she got some QC issue on me. 1. Glue stained on the wings 2. Poor paint job on the left wing. 3. Uneven Fold Crystal is installed. 4. Saw some glue on both shoulders joint. It's very tight and I give up transforming it. Stupid me trying to remove the glue stained but end up destroying the paint.

Loving it, can't wait for it.

Many said Mirage will be delayed. This is actually worrying as like you said, there isn't any display on the shelves and this Bogue is kinda too early to show.

Hey guys, I came across this video. Seems like need to pull down the grip in order to hold it properly. I have yet to try it though.

Just noticed the poor paint jobs.

Ya, not too bad. Lucky no cracking parts.

Sharing some photos, some scratches may not be able to capture under camera.

Finally, I just got my VF-31AX. Not sure the quality control is bad or someone had opened my unit, played and put it back, sealed again. The paint job is terrible, a lot of scratches and the gaps are awful. My VF-31J Kai has perfect paint jobs and everything is tight in one piece. Anyway, still glad that no crack is seen.

Damn, all looking good!

That's alright. Life is unpredictable. Thank you for your message.

Hello guys, just to share the latest update since the last post. Lost my job during this pandemic and with extra time, I have casted the BP8, BP9's hook (I lost it from my VF-1J) and SV-51's stand's connector. I feel that using the AB Resin is much better than AB Putty.

Around $390, sealed in box.

I am lucky that a friend of mine letting go one of his unit.

Awesome for you! From Ami too? I just managed to get 31A Kairos. To console myself that didn't able to get hold of 31AX preorder.
