Knight26 Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Surprised no ones brought this up yet. http://experten.cocolog-nifty.com/blog/2014/12/1100vf-11maxl-5.html Quote
VF-19 Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Whoa, is that a MAXL? Looking mighty fine for something that is all anime magic! Quote
David Hingtgen Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 I saw it a while ago, but it has a horrible battroid mode (no excuse IMHO, when seeing the Bandai kit and how the leg shape really only affects the shield-shape), and a quite off-model fighter mode (nacelles sit too low, same as many VF-25 attempts). Yes, "anime magic". But the real MAXl's battroid mass is like 2/3 below the waist, this kit is the inverse. In short, really, it needs "shaplier legs" to look like a MAXL. And a smaller waist. If you don't have that---then you don't really have a MAXL. The whole point of the MAXL is an exaggerated feminine shape in battroid mode. It's like they missed the mark, and tried to minimize that, while still not really getting fighter mode right either. Quote
aaajin Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) It was mentioned a while ago..I think there are already pictures of actual figure somewhere in the threads. EDITED : here's the link to pictures (browse left/right for more pictures) : https://www.flickr.com/photos/gerwalk_w/14807209263/in/set-72157645580987959 Edited January 5, 2015 by aaajin Quote

I feel this way about basically everything Experten does. Their kits get a lot of attention because they're usually based on subject matter that's woefully underrepresented in figure form, but the actual figure itself always looks like junk. Quote
