of 5 VF-0's i have 2 that had cracks. One I just leave as is, and the other was very minor stress mark, i strengthened with some glue, and now its fine. so I have 4 0'S that I can transform when i want too. 4 from 5, and thats gettign them from different retailers.
i dont deny the 0A was a mess witht eh arm problems; 90% of people who we know of who got em had some kind of fault with it. But from everything i can see here the Shin seems to be fine. Not so much as a white line. Now i know Mowes broke, but then it soulds like his was a faulty one from the get go, and ive had that happen with toys, so I know it can occour, and not just with Yamato. but other than Mowe, I cant remember anyone having an issue with Shin. i may be wrong, and mayeb Im just the fluke that has a working toy, but it seems they have solved the problem.
Now assuming they have, why are u still complaining? Ok, yes in the past one the VF-0A especially they screwed up big time. the charging for replacement arms is a joke, and Sam Monkey got told to get ne arms he'd have to get new entire Zeroes, which is even more insane. Im not saying that Yamato are heavenly angels. But im also not goign to crucify them over one bad design that, from my POV, they have fixed in later releases anyway. And i have ALOT of Yamatos under my belt (Not as many as kensei, but stilll...).
iots why the people who bring up the problems with the 0's in every thread on every board every chance they get really annoy me. THEY BROKE! WE KNOW! Let's move on, shall we?
