That makes sense actually. And they just changed that chest to make it Prime-like. -
From what I read the hip joints on the new 25S are quite stiff, and support the weight of the full armor set well. I wonder if they would do the same on this to support the full weight of the Tornado sets, which are almost all on the back

Its not that I dont understand their motivations, its their actions I disagree with. But also I'm not trying to pick a fight, I think we are just coming at it differently. And as i said, thats ok.

It actually just occured to me tonight that it might have the tighter joints that people say the 25S Heavy has, which would make it worth getting another 25F to me....

Cheers! I wish I could find pics of the 19P, but the pics I took that year all disappeared. I lost a bunch of stuff, which bums me out
-
Oh thats cool! Well hopefully I'll see her in a collection sometime. Thanks I was proud of it Here are pics I took when I finished it initially.
-
Yeah kind of. I still think Seiba is justifying a lot of crappy behavior, but thats just my opinion, not so much any kind of fact. And its all good, art should be interpreted differently, thats part of the fun

Ok, fair enough. Rrrrrriiiiight, but thats a very 'Minority Report' kind of looking justification. Was there any indication that the Windermereans were looking to do that, or just a "Well this thing is here, and one day maybe someone might do this so let's blow up something of cultural significance to these people just in case, and also maybe a lot of people will die" sort of scenario? Thats incredibly deep, muddy moral ground there.... Again, thats very muddy ground. IIRC they took remote control of his fighter to drop the bomb. If they had that much control, they could have detonated it in the air, causing less damage and killing Wright (Which would have prevented capture). Doing what they did still didn't achieve their goal, killed innocent civilians, and then on top of it all they covered it all up to make it seem like the Windermereans had bombed a NUNS base. Thats shady as all hell. Was that to combat Var, or did they do it for another reason that they pivoted into Mikumos eventual role? I'll grant you the second one, but the first I don't remember. How did they delay the evacuation of Ragna? Because the Elysium went off world instead of evacuating the civilians? Theres a very egotistical "Well you know our species are saving the galaxy!" kind of vibe to them a bit. Because they are the strongest force combatting the Zentradi now (As far as we have seen), they seem to feel like they have this moral imperative to spread their culture and override, or at least uplift as you say, the cultures of the species they encounter. You could argue that if they had never told the Windermereans about the protoculture or the significance of the ruins in the first place then it may have just gone on being some ancient ruins that the WM's knew was on their world but didn't think anything of.

Almost 10 years ago I sold a custom VF-19P and Custom VF-11C to someone in this group, and Ive never seen them since. I always hoped id see them in a collection pic one day, but never have
-
I kind of wish that somewhere would 3D print or offer the file for the small black piece that goes under the crotch plate to help hold it forward. Never understood why that didnt just become a default piece for the 25 series mold.
-
OOooo, its got the Tampo on it! That's looking like ew MIGHT actually get it this year!
-
Im holding out for one to arrive on Mandarake. I never actually go the heavy armor for the original 25S (It always priced me out) so Im quite looking forward to this. Good to hear the joints are tighter; hopefully they do the same on the 27.

Sure but they also had the Dimension Eater weapon that was dropped on Windermere in their possession (Which was illegal IIRC?), and covered up the incident later on, which added to the resentment of the Windermereans against the rest of the Galaxy. In fact wasnt Hayate Dad (Wright? something like that) originally supposed to drop the bomb on the Protoculture ruins which would have caused significantly more damage to the planet? They also stole the 'Star Singer' material and made Mikumo and later the clone in the second movie right? I dunno, the NUNS higher ups always came across like villainous to me. Not so much the local forces, but the overall ones for sure. There was always a vague "Colonial invaders" tone to me from the NUNG interactions with the Windermereans to me. I'm not saying the Windermereans didn't over-reach in their response, but since they were never happy with the original terms of the treaty I would assume it wasn't a very even one.
