Yikes. Does happen with Amazon though. Always check those seals. Hey, at least it has the US warranty sticker. If you had bought from Japan...well, you don't want those troubles.

I expect many do after falling for the barebones version discount at the moment.

I assume that's the proto or test shot, yeah?

Were/Are the full pack missiles ever sold separately?

That's what I feared. That would suck on an Axoid as it's all dark maroon and black. No point in a repaint unless it can match those colors. @Jarrod had informed me the DX cannot accept paint to the exposed joints as they are nylon, which would kill the appearance. Nylon supposedly can take dye, but it's not something he's tried yet, and I can't undertake any of this anyhow (have to commission him or someone) as I no longer have steady hands to get such an endeavor right. I just hoped this one could be a little more of an option than the DX.

Zero interest. If the scale supports transformation and it doesn't have any, it doesn't deserve my purchase. I don't care if it's a license restriction because a transformable license went to someone else, in my opinion there's no point to it. Tiny little ones to stick to an SDF-1? Sure, but that's it. Now, for their thicc transformable one, if it's as heavy as those thighs might lead you to believe (due to diecast), I'll chase that chubby. I still think it may be a fun toy. Maybe as fun as a Chunky Monkey.

I like raspberry, but I see cherry there. Gonna ask again: Are there nylon parts in a 3Z VF-1? At least one visible in any mode? I ask, because that Mirya 1J is one step from becoming my Axoid if it can accept paint. (Nylon apparently can't)
-
I wonder if 3Z will release fast packs for these as standalone releases, or only with reissues of the figures with them.

Kitz Concept Toy Thread 2.0
Radioguy replied to Stampeed Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
The original prototype looked so much better. Not so bummed I skipped the metallic 1A 2 pack with him now. Still would like to own those, however...- 2376 replies

I know they aren't huge, but I did imagine 3Z to be a company that might insist on full swaps of entire products. Hey, if it's cost-effective to offer to swap out components, good, but I am a tad surprised.

Watching Jenius' transformation videos has always been my go-to for any figure he's gotten before I have. Bandai really ought to be giving him a kickback and including the links on a flyer along with the booklet. In all seriousness, when complicated devices like PCs have a "quick setup guide" as well as a manual, and that many companies already utilize Youtube as a place for support, Bandai not producing even unnarrated transformation guide videos for their premium products at least is a little surprising. Anyhow, got my "bargain" Amazon YF-19, and he seems intact. Gonna watch that Scorched Earth video again before anything else.

I'm glad it went to someone here. I was watching it, but kept looking at my wallet. One day I'll get it. You could post pix, you know.

Radioguy started following SDF-1 DYRL 3D Build
-
I cannot imagine what this would cost to produce, but maybe I could see myself affording to buy one piece printed at a time...like a partwork? Speaking of which, the SDF-1 is MADE for Hachette or Fanhome/DeAgostini. I didn't do the VF-1S, 1701-D, BTTF Delorean, or K.I.T.T., but I would be on board for a transformable SDF-1. (TV version would be a little better, IMO).

That's a good response for a lot of situations. 😄
