Osean Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 Does anyone else have a problem with the intake on their alpha? The left one on my blue alpha tends to get loose and come apart. I have to pinch it back to together in order to fix. Quote
Feyd-Rautha Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 my scott is a bit loose there on one side..but does'nt come apart.>>little floppy though in between modes Quote
jenius Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 I'll add some pics too. Holy Crap, is Winnie about to get dusted? Quote
Osean Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 I'll add some pics too. Holy Crap, is Winnie about to get dusted? Hell Yea! He went over to the inbit side, damn pooh. lol I don't have any enemy figures to pose my alphas with, so I chose the fat bear. Quote
Kin Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Cool pics here! I like the soccer field, it matches the scale ratio. Quote
GreenGuy42 Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 I went down to Clearwater last weekend, to visit friends, so I decided to pack up a TON of anime DVDs I didn't care about anymore and trade them back into AnimeNation for an MPC... (just couldn't justify buying one with all the issues people are having) Well, the first one I grabbed had some paint issues and the canopy has stress lines in it. I took it back, and got a near perfect example. Based on THIS piece, I love it, though I'll be making any further MPC purchases in person and at the store. I must say, it's a REAL pity Toynami skimped so much on the construction of this toy... I really like the sculpt, considering its size. Quote
Feyd-Rautha Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 green guy.. i think the reason you like the sculpt so much is 'cause: IT $%&^%^&%Y*#$@#$@#@@$^&%^*%& ROCKKKKKS!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
magicsp00n Posted March 10, 2005 Posted March 10, 2005 I picked up the Green Alpha last night, and it's a hella good-looking toy. I don't enjoy the terror I feel when transforming it, unsure if any piece is going to snap off, but it sure looks good on the shelf. Quote

Watch then gun hand. The damn thing is fragile as hell. Yup, the fingers broke on me when I was trying to attach the gun on my blue alpha. Waiting for my replacement hands to come in, but now when I try to attach the guns on my other alphas I just connect it to the palm without wrapping the fingers around the gun handle. Quote
shiyao Posted March 10, 2005 Posted March 10, 2005 I've just given up on putting the gun in the hand altogether. All my Alphas now have their guns affixed to their wings in Battloid mode, kinda like a slung-over-the-shoulder look. Looks pretty decent ... I mean, the Alpha's got missiles by the bucketloads, he can defend himself even without the GU-XX I'm sure. Damn, another "sad" post. Damn damn. Quote

Waiting for my replacement hands to come in, but now when I try to attach the guns on my other alphas I just connect it to the palm without wrapping the fingers around the gun handle. The first greenie I picked up lost part of his lower hand (below pinky.) My second one's holding up, but I'm REALLY careful when affixing the GU-XX.... Still, the first one still HELD the gun, and the fingers just looked slighly crooked. It's a pity. The hands have GOOD articulation and are very attractive. I just don't know why Toynami didn't choose a more malleable plastic like what's normally used in a polycap or something REALLY stress resistent, like Yamato's 1/48 hands. Quote
aaajin Posted March 10, 2005 Posted March 10, 2005 (edited) prolly they think by making the hands more uhmm...'gummy', they'll hold the gunpods much better...but then the offset would be that they break! & I mean reaaally easily... Edited March 10, 2005 by aaajin Quote

Never thought of having the gu-xx in that affixed position before, and sounds like a good idea. I'm gonna try that out! Hmm...I wonder how it would look with two of them Quote
zeo-mare Posted March 11, 2005 Posted March 11, 2005 that is how i have mine with the gun hooked to its back, i have seen pics with to guns it looks really cool. chris Quote

Osean Posted March 12, 2005 Posted March 12, 2005 Another way to position the guns, but this way prevents the wings from folding all the way back. Quote
