UN Spacy Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Yamato...you missed out putting speakers on the Sound Boosters. Don't pass up the chance with this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UN Spacy Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Isn't this supposed to come with a Mylene figure? I think it was reivaj that noticed it a few months ago in an old photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renato Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Yamato...you missed out putting speakers on the Sound Boosters. Don't pass up the chance with this. This is a kit, so if you buy it, it's up to you to put speakers in it if you want them... Isn't this supposed to come with a Mylene figure? I think it was reivaj that noticed it a few months ago in an old photo. They actually had the whole of Fire Bomber on display, even Veffidas and Ray. But they never actually said how (or if) they would market them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonc Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I hope it does come with a Mylene figure. Down the line, I'm really going to have to make the sound booster play music with real speakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody on here has already done that. It's not that hard, either... apparently. The main problem is that Yamato glued the whole damn thing shut, so you have to pry the two halves open and if you screw it up... you're screwed.

Scream Man Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I would buy this thing if it meant getting a little Fire Bomber! that would be awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamadoma Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 (edited) Just a question, guys. When you place the gunpod in the Battroid's hand, do you always force it to be snug fit with the tab in the gun's handle and the index finger well inside the trigger housing? I noticed mine has a very slight stress mark on the index finger while trying this whenever going into Battroid. Though it doesn't seem to stress anything when I keep the index finger out of the trigger housing. Edited April 6, 2012 by kamadoma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scream Man Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I do, and bothe the kai and blazer seem fine. The blazers fits especially well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reïvaj Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Sometime around the end of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UN Spacy Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Guess my 2011 version had a good run. Plastic durability strikes yet again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightmareB4macross Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Oh that sucks. I hope this doesn’t affect the limited gold accent version. My regular release has the same issue on one arm. I might have to look into repairing the part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanity is Optional Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Now I'm worried about the 3 Emerald Force VF-19 figures I have. Maybe I'll go check for cracks and maybe drip some superglue in the opposite end of the pin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Funny to think about.. this is the exact same trouble my original release Yamato YF-19 had. The arm assembly and design just weren't any good, and I believe that was during Yamato's "explodium" phase, the one where they kept churning out parts in this strange fragile plastic that would fail catastrophically. The plastic in the VF-19s was certainly much better, but the design of the arm really didn't change any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The plastic in the VF-19s was certainly much better, but the design of the arm really didn't change any. The design of that particular section is inherently bad. The joint is only supported on one end of the pin, and there's an un-chamfered inner corner to concentrate the stress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
