    Finally got my shipping confirmation today from Yoyakunow. I'm still trying to decide what mode to display the Ostrich in.

    I wouldn't buy anything from their site right now... the bankruptcy happened fairly recently so there's no telling if they'll be able to fulfill your order or even offer a refund. The site is probably still up because their web hosting service hasn't expired yet. https://www.tctmagazine.com/additive-manufacturing-3d-printing-news/latest-additive-manufacturing-3d-printing-news/shapeways-ceases-operations-and-files-for-bankruptcy/ https://www.cgchannel.com/2024/07/3d-printing-firm-shapeways-files-for-bankruptcy/ https://3dprint.com/311136/shapeways-executives-resign-as-3d-printing-service-files-for-bankruptcy/

    Since Shapeways went out of business, is there an alternate site/method to getting those replacements shoulders for the 1/60 Yamatos?

    Someone made third party cartoon hands and were selling them at the time. I’m not sure if those are still around.

    So I looked over the manual posted on Tamashii’s website after seeing all these broken head radars. I had always assumed it had the same mechanism as the HMR version. Were they broken because people assumed it worked like the HMR and tried to swivel the radar antenna around instead of the entire head itself?

    That’s pretty good.

    I want one of these but July was an expensive month for me and I’ve already splurged on enough stuff I shouldn’t have.

    Do the legs with the super parts on not attach at all to the tabs on the back plate for fighter mode in this video, or did she just do it wrong?

    So far Yoyakunow is okay to buy from in my book. I think part of the problem is they seem to have limited staff and everyone contacts them (I'm guilty of this too) for updates on their orders and they just don't have the man power and time to deal with both packaging orders and answering emails.

    I'm scared of transforming this toy now and accidentally mishandling the antenna, specially since a lot of it requires to handle the plane upside down.

    Holy crap! The ball joints attaching the legs to the pelvis are super tight. I can’t even pose them without moving the metal swing bars by accident.

    Thanks, good to know.

    I got my YF-21 today from Yoyakunow and am happy to report the antenna was straight as an arrow. A couple of questions though, was the YF-21 suppose to come in the brown P-Bandai shipper box? Also, I asked Yoyakunow to take a picture of the antenna before shipping it to me to verify it was good but I noticed the box I received had the big round clear tape sealing both ends of the box. I always thought the tape was something Bandai puts on so was expecting the box to be unsealed already.

    I have an order from Yoyakunow still pending too. They’re all waiting for their shipment from Tamashii Nation according to the email I got from them.
  15. rsvictor1976
    WOW, now I’m really curious to see what condition you got your VT-1 in.
  16. rsvictor1976
    Do you think we're gonna get RDJ as Dr. Doom in Fantastic Four?
  17. rsvictor1976
    I'm fine with this, My wallet needs a break from the VT-1 and YF-21 splurge.
  18. rsvictor1976
    I'm surprised no one has capitalized on the bent antenna yet and created 3D printed replacement/spare parts.
  19. rsvictor1976
    No, unfortunately my invoice for the shipping came and was paid for on Friday late afternoon in their time. Since they are closed on weekends, I'm probably gonna get mine sometime next week. But I'll definitely keep everyone posted. On a side note, I initially ordered the DX VT-1 from them and added the DX YF-21 a couple days later. My VT-1 wasn't ready to be shipped yet and I asked them if it was cheaper to ship both items together or separate through DHL and was told it was cheaper to do it separately. I don't know if this is true though.
  20. rsvictor1976
    Yeah, I was afraid they were pulling something shady like sending the same pictures to everyone when I saw that yours came with the bent antenna even though they sent you pictures.
  21. rsvictor1976
    Its crazy how much different the HMR color is. Its like Bandai were trying to get rid of all their extra brown paint when they release the HMR version.
  22. rsvictor1976
    I got sent these photos from Yoyakunow yesterday. I'm wondering if these are the same photos they sent you?
  23. rsvictor1976
    I'm curious, why are playing cards taxed more than toys and models?
  24. rsvictor1976
    Have you similar experience with UPS or DHL?
  25. rsvictor1976
    How was the packaging? I ordered the DX VT-1 recently and is my first time dealing with Yoyakunow.
