What's really surprising.. as far as all the improvements on the V2 that has been mentioned, I have yet* to purchase a V2. I didn't even bother to pick up the VE and VT. I don't know why for some reason it hasn't appealed to me yet.. but if I ever get into it, it will begin with those two. I mean I can get a 1/48 Roy painted to replace the V2 roy low viz, so nothing new here. Improvements.. hm.. majority has been already mentioned up here, but lets be realistic is it really going to be done? How about the QC issues that haven't been resolved, lets start with that before we can move forward. Seriously with this topic I get a feel that Yamato's research team has gotten lazy and wants to use us on the forum as their test subjects. (e.g. Simpson episode when a toy company takes over Bart's school and ask them questions through their homework and observe them through a see double sided blackboard.
