I know just wanted to stop Yamato! Bandai! PEPSI! COKE! Posts! Im now interested in getting a cheap Alto

this is stupid I go from deck swabber to a destroid waxer!!!!!!!!!! COME ON!!!!

this thing just doesn't do anything for me. Im happy with the 1/72 version. Maybe another colour scheme would be nice. Like stealth black. Then I might be on board for this release. just doesnt seem sleek enough

you are a brave brave man!!!!! Better poses aside, I would not want to do that to a 200 dollar toy Thank god i hope the prices drop soon. Some of my friends at IBM just got laid off and I'm worried. The hobby shop in toronto Pacific Mall got some in and is asking 300 cdn for an alto. Last time I paid that much was for the SOC Dancouga and Aquarion and I can say that they at least are substantial. No way an Alto is worth 300 bucks Man I really miss Hong Kong. Too bad! Maybe I need to make an excuse and go visit the in laws in Guangzhaou

Question on Price Since we are not paying so much for line art do you think 220 Canadian is expensive for the Aldo DX I m finding a few on the web. Should I wait? Times are bad and our dollar took a nose dive so it seems a little expensive to me. Also I found the fast packs for alto for 139US!!!! Wow I dont think the fast packs were that much for the yammies

Here is mine

thanks I will ask someone to go check. Only reason I though you worked in japan was because you were close to yamato I guess they have an office in HK

hey Bud Which Store. Is it in Tsim Tsum Choi, or Kowloon toy district? I would like to see if I can have someone pickup the vf 25s. Wait a minute I thought you lived in Japan???

Funny thing my 1/72 has none of that and I have transformed it a billzillion times. I have yet to take a look at my 1/60 but im scared. reading the Bandi Thread makes me happier with all the small flaws of the VF 25's that Bandi is making them but time will tell. Maybe Yamato should go back to 1/72 and diecast as there y-19 hasnt broke nor has my vf-1 Footnote: I really like the Patlabor mecha and when I saw Yamatos version I was pleased and really wanted it. I have recently purchased a GGGG and GFG and i just touched the wing feather of gadget gao and it broke were the screw is???? How craptastic is that. Such a nice mech but shoddy work, I digress, Anyhoo so I was in no mind to buy the CM's version of Patlabor but for 300 for a Yammie one that doesnt transform I think was a bit much! considering all the QCs they have. So I went the middle ground and got the WHAM 1/48 version and WOW!!!! really good design engineering nothing broke, and I like the rubber better than the cloth because it looks more realistic! I will post the review with pics in the appropriate thread soon. PS never dealt with overdrive. Does have replacement parts for CMs gaogaigar stuff

Glad to hear your not spouting YAMATO, YAMATO, YAMATO!!!!! I too want Ozma's valk which to me looks better. Stupid impatient me I just pre ordered mine from a local Asian Toy Hobby Shop! Set arrive on Jan 20th. Ho Hum! I NEED one of these valks in my Display cabinet. I will make a fix on the neck issue and bendy antenys Quick Question. Does Glossy white plastic yellow??? I dont think so if there was a semi gloss paint right?

what scares me is that I am patiently waiting for Michaels VF-25G yet I cant seem to find pics of it in flight mode or Lucas for that fact??? Why is that?

I voted Yes to liking Bandai's attempt at a valk collection piece and that I am purchasing the G version

good points I hope they improve Micheal's VF-25 G Only points that really bother me is swapping hands and therefore cannot have the marker perfect transformation. Altos White plastic if it is cheap TURN OFF as this will eventually go banana yuck yellow The neck on Ozuma OMG that looks horrible. The Head Gunbarrels dont bother me as much lack of Fast Packs I dont really care if its slightly of scale the little white blob of a pilot does bother me I think people are being a little too spoiled and too sensitive. This cannot be geared as a childrens toy way to pricey unless japanese kids had huge bank accounts It is very sleek looking and a cool collectors piece. Again I will say this if you never saw MF and didnt know about it and it came under Yamatos Brand I KNOW all of you would be gaga over it. So anyway The model kits are way to brittle I know I have 5 PG gundams and they are very sturdy including the ZETA. I have the Zeta MG V2.0 and its still brittle with only 3-4 more transformations before it explodes so trust me the kit IS not the way to go! IF there was a PG Vf25 Then yeah go for it! Best wait for the 100s and Maybe the G and Lucas will have some improvements If your unhappy about some of the shoddy work email Kawamori Im sure he would love to hear from us about how unhappy we are and might refuse to work with Bandai in the Future until they get their act together. The Japanese have a very strong sense of Pride about the things they do and thats were we can take advantage.!

depends on sales Dancouga was about 6 months and aquarion was about 2 years

Thanks for the review and pics Still looks nice tho. It looks sturdy. Is it sturdy and solid. Kinda of upset about the neck thing but my mind is made up now its the G version for me. Still willing to buy one as they are nice. but it has to come with the fast packs also cant belive so many of you can afford to buy multiples of these!!! But then again I also collect a lot of SOC and Transformers and oh yes MP Grimmy is on my list But you wont be disappointed in the Beta fighter. I know it robotech but they are related to macross as the storey was arched together and their still is the Beagle 1/15 Ride Armor which looks nice!

WTF WTF WHHHHAAAAAAATTTTT THE F**&&^.............. Movies!!!! when where and how much and how many!!!!! LOVE THIS ANIME! Where can I download the soundtrack! ie " Fight the Power"

Im adding some comparison pics with other toys and with the alpha and beta decals added thanks

Here is the last bit of Pics

Overall the quality and paint apps are very good. I only have 3 toynami toys the alpha, beta and voltron MPC and I have very high recommendations for the voltron and Beta One thing when I was displaying the toy a very small screw fell from somewhere on the beta which I will find and screw back in and add crazy glue. Posing is ok the Legs are a little loose due to the heavy diecast. As a BIG fan of diecast I will say that this should have had none. It would have been easier to pose and make the toy firm. The stand and connection with the alpha is pretty sturdy and very well thought out considering a lot of anime magic was left for imagination. There are two connection rods to use with the beta to connect with the alpha One for the alpa when in Battroid mode the other in flight mode. Buy it you wont be disappointed. I dont have the CMs I do have the CMs GGGG and GFG and i think the overall qc problems with toynami releases have improved with the beta and I will assume is much better than the CMs version. One other thing. When you try to add the pilot in cockpit it doesnt close properly so you have to leave it out thanks

Part 2

Here are some pics of the toy more to come with review I give this 4.5 our of 5 Very good release unlike their previous alpha fighters.!Part 1

dam you do good work oh well now i have to get on e

wah wah get the kid a pacifier

you need a women and by that a real one whinning about a dam toy holy &^%$

and thats what I have been trying to convey all along. I dont know any high end toy thats 100% perfect. and people have a choice buy it dont buy it Could bandai do better sure so could yamato and so could taktomy but boy it looks sweet. I really am looking past the very minor flaws and enjoying this piece the more I see it I too will wait for Mikhail as I love that dam snipe gun. I think this one will have the super strike parts available for it later. I just hope they dont release it with the plane that would piss me off
