Sanity is Optional Posted March 30, 2022 Posted March 30, 2022 5 hours ago, no3Ljm said: What you're saying basically is Bandai can just ignore the Fighter mode, since you already have Yamato's in Fighter mode. How about for those who's planning on getting their first YF-21's and can't afford how much the Yamato are going nowadays? Or for those who want all modes to look better than what's available out there? Just saying. Nah, I’m saying since the 21 needs too much anime magic to ever make a perfect transformation toy that looks good and accurate in all 3 modes, they may as well prioritize the one that has been done dirty prior, rather than compete with the Yamato in its best form.

That's the thing. It's either Bandai should rework the design to make it look good across 3 modes. We all know that YF-21 has too much anime-magic going on, so it's going to be a challenge accomplishing that. And not sure how fans will take it if all forms not matching what. To be honest, I rather have something like a partsformer or has options to replace parts (like what they do on some of their Chogokin releases) to make it look closer to the source. That way, I can have a good rendition of 1/60 YF-21 in all modes. And not something like Fighter is perfect, Gerwalk is ok, Battroid is mediocre like what Yamato did. I rather have them find a way of making the 3 modes look good, but not 'forced', and not prioritize one mode than the other.
borgified Posted March 30, 2022 Posted March 30, 2022 Nah... Bandai is not going to make the eventual YF-21 any easier for us @no3Ljm. They're going to make more screwed up like the SV-262 Hs and the SV-303 which we all end up tossing it against the wall (either brick, steel, concrete, or drywall) in frustration.

So far, I haven't toss my Draken on the wall. Hahaha! But true. I don't think they will make easy for us. Also, I wouldn't blame them yet for the 303 since we haven't seen any prototypes yet. For now, that's all Kawamori's.
chriswoo Posted March 31, 2022 Posted March 31, 2022 So far I am ok with the draken sv 262 once you get hang of the weird transformation. I more worry about arcadia su-51 that one prone to break if slight force pressure.

I'm just waiting for Bandai to make the Elvis Draken.
chriswoo Posted March 31, 2022 Posted March 31, 2022 haha i tempted to buy another Draken to paint it white Elvis version

Thanks for sharing. The Unicorn isn't transformed quite right. I'm sure he's super fiddly though so your call if you want to fix. Amazon seems to have decent enough reference pics for you to look at and compare. https://www.amazon.com/Bandai-Hobby-Unicorn-Gundam-Model/dp/B00O3RUFQ0/ref=asc_df_B00O3RUFQ0/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=309830256687&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=4349427885989403465&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9032188&hvtargid=pla-439647228466&psc=1
