If it's ~6.3" up to the top of the head/helmet, that's pretty good for me whether armored up or not.
-
Yeah, very lucky if in HMR at all... not so lucky for me if they go the HG route since I suck at applying stickers/decals.
-
Didn't realize they included unhelmeted heads. And that gun to rifle conversion is a nice touch.
-
Awesome pics. I would prefer if they were 6" figures, but the faces on those look pretty decent... except for Ezra in that 1st pic... looks constipated or something lol.
-
Great snag! That's even lower than current HMR VF-19P prices right there.
-
Always great to see pics of the Ghost, esp. with the whole crew . It's been a while since I last rewatched Rebels. The lego one I bought my kids over a decade ago has sadly been all but forgotten. Still waiting for the day Rebels figs with toon acurate faces come out... hopefully after those SHF Clone Wars figs 🤞

Not really a big TF collector and I'm only really into the characters (Autobots) I remember from the original cartoon up until the 86 movie (which is the only TF show/movie that I can stand to watch these days). Plus, Hasbro TFs are not as easy to come by here... so it's great for me that Takara came out with this set. I wanna say I got this 100% cuz of nostalgia, but I also wanted to see if I could fit those backpack wing thingys and shoulder cannon onto my earthrise Wheeljack since this one will be staying in its cybertronian vehicle mode.

Touché! I have to admit that I almost always skip Gerwalk mode during transformation . Plus, out of all the VF toys I own, only 1 is displayed in Gerwalk (≈75% in Fighter and the rest in Battroid). All very good points for this VF-1 Gerwalk mode and very cool pose too. I did transform my 1S to fighter and propped it on its stand... that lasted less than a day cuz I just really prefer that beefy Battroid mode with that glorious 1S head with its perfectly green, transparent visor. If 3Z makes a 1D or Max's 1A, I would definitely consider displaying those in Gerwalk mode.
-
Fair enough. I myself very rarely open the canopies on any of my VFs anyway 😅. As for my 3Z VF-1S, and any other VF-1 I may acquire from them in the future, they're gonna stay 99% of the time in battroid cuz that's mode they shine the most in, imo.
-
It wasn't an option to get the refund and just purchase a new one, or is there a substantial price difference? I didn't realize that there were others with QC issues with the 1S. I got my replacement parts from 3Z a little over a month after requesting them... for a scratched vertical stabilizer and damaged right shoulder pouldron out of the box. They gave me the whole backpack with both fins and 2 shoulder pouldrons.
-
I've been taking a break from collecting, but I just happened upon a couple of good deals that were just too good to pass up. didn't preorder the VF-19P cuz I balked at the TWE preorder prices esp. compared to how much the HMR Kai was selling for, but I'm happy to finally have a 19P in my collection, even at a smaller scale. I also got a second VF-0D to display in battroid for a relatively cheap price. The VF-2SS I got a few months ago... still a great addition to my small but ever growing HMR collection.
-
Is that stand from the new Tread or from your Zeta? You would think that after hearing of several reports of this and some even requesting for a replacement part, Sentinel would reinforce this part of the stand or maybe even totally change the way the Legioss is mounted in fighter mode.

Mog’s Last Custom Mecha Hurrah. . . Most Likely(?)

Great job! Red combo looks good. That rotating gatling gun is esp. cool -
That's one hell of an expensive flight stand for the Legioss!
