Are you using a different stand?

It's a shame that a show with such awesome mechanical designs that would translate well into toys wasn't able to ever get a decent toy representation. Waste opprotunity.

The Transformers Thread (licensed) Next
Sandman replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Wow. Speechless. -
Actually the funny thing about ordering from CDJapan, is that i couldn't if i wanted to. I got my yf-29b there so they won't let me buy another due to the 1 per person limit. Probably another factor on why they aren't selling that fast.
-
Would love to get these but the shipping to Canada is too expensive.
-
Not including a the SAP or at least attachments seems pretty shortsighted. It's the Yamato VF-1 1/60 ver 1 all over again and i guess Bandai's VF-25 v1 as well.
-
The QC on this one doesn't help as well. Too many reports of bent head lasers. Not a big deal but when you're paying that kind of money. Especially when it's simply a matter of a sloppy factory worker(s).
-
The no nozzle on the gun is really bugging me now. Hopefully that gets fixed for release.
-
I'm surprised that this isn't selling well. I love this color scheme a lot. That being said though i'm kinda done with the yf-29 repaints. I hope they stop and start doing repaints of the Yf-30 and Vf-19. The nice thing about this mold is the piece in front of the cockpit isn't painted so hopefully it won't scratch.

Got mine today. Left head laser was all bend out of shape. Was practically point straight up in the box rather than parallel with the fighter. It looks like its partially pulled out from the head. I can't seem to pull it out or push it in. Anyone know how to pull out the head lasers. I dont want to accidently break it. It doesnt seem to want to come out.

This preorder doesnt look like its in danger of ending anytime soon like a bandai preorder. I got one. Well see how it goes.
-
Why arent there more armoured vf-1js for sale. I havent seen any come up since preorder day.
-
I thought you had a vf-25s already? Anyway i think vf-19advance will go in price sooner than the vf-25s. After the reissue i think there is a lot of them in the wild that will keep the price stable. I dunno i guess it depends on when you think you'll get around to buying other one. Things could drastically change in 6 months.

I actually find it's solid almost chunky monkey like. I feels like you can manhandle it without breaking it. Whats not so solid is the way it connects like the hips to the torso. It constantly separates causing your toy to come crashing down.

What is the tower of joy about? -
I remember having a getter posiden (before i even knew who he was) who was completely metal. That guy was solid and could probably hurt someone really bad.
-
We need a YF-24. It showed up on screen...kind of.

Well after watching Actar's video, i made another try at the super parts in fighter mode. I realized i missed tabbing in the legs to the torso. After i did that, the process was much better. The gaps still aren't perfect but they are a whole lot better than they were prior. Thanks for the video Actar! The wing tabs just sitting there really does suck. Shame on Bandai for purposely hiding that in promo pictures. I dunno why they wouldn't put in a notch to tab into. Looks like theres room for one.
-
I wonder if the yellowing will come back worse like it did for a member who tried something similar a few years back?
-
You make that look so easy.
-
What's wrong with the bandai neck? i'm looking at the pictures but not noticing anything jumping out at me.
-
I had a wall of yamato boxes like that when i lived by myself. That ended when the wife (GF at the time) and me moved into a bigger house. Now i have even less space.
-
Not transforming it seems like a waste. I had transformed it to battroid when i first got it. It wasn't that bad. Then i put on the super parts. Yesterday i tried to transform it back to fighter with the superparts which wasn't that bad until i got to the part where you swing up the legs. Like the other guy who posted earlier the little pieces on the back of the leg kept popping out then the sholder part kept flying off. I haven't had as much fun like this since the version 1 armor parts for the vf-25. I managed to get it all together but it is gappy in parts. Good enough for now though. I think going back to fighter without super parts won't be a problem. The super parts were even a problem on the yamato 1/60 as well.
-
At least the intake warnings will be there. The yd-19 will forever be marred by not having them.

Still waiting for more armored 1j preorders to reopen
