Mommar Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) Man, looking at the photos and seeing all the goofy ways people need to adjust the backpack/wings to make things work in Gerwalk pisses me off. Bandai did not implement the 262 correct. The use of additional braces for the lil drakens in fighter is also BS, they haven't learned a single thing from the 25 Armor/Tornado packs.

Chronocidal Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Or, from the 1/72 kit, which has the locking mechanisms for the wings located all along the outer surface of the legs, so the wingtips pivot freely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandman Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Well looks like n-y is at it again. The lil draken set became available agin tonight. I paid for one. Going through the payment process I noticed a new option for wrapping. 250 yen extra after shipping costs for a choice of 2 different wrappings or a bag option. You don't have to get it but I'm thinking they are going to ship these lil drakens out in the shipper boxes they come in and not an outer box like they have been till now. I hope this isn't true but I'm thinking it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArchieNov Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 That giftwrap option has been around for more than a year. Not sure why you haven't seen it till now. And N-Y will ship it using a shipper box like they always do, regardless if they have their own brown shipping boxes (e.g. Limited items).

Loop Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 (edited) What's new lately with NY? Seems the past several releases they have underestimated the size of the packaging. What did they originally charge you for shipping? I swear they should do what HLJ does and give you the shipping charge later when they have the item.

Boobytrap Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 They didn't ask for anything additional from me. I chose EMS though so hopefully, for me anyway, it's because you had a different delivery method. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizman Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Got my preparation mail from NY, ordered whatever the cheaper shipping option was and haven't been asked to pay more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loop Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 I got mine off the Tamashii JP site instead of NY. I did have them do the small price increase on me one time but that was because the box was actually way oversized from Bandai and I didn't mind it all, but we hear about it every time they ship something lately.

Mommar Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Watching that video, the little plastic piece they attach in fighter mode doesn't even really make sense. What does it do exactly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 From watching two videos it's more and more clear that Bandai totally f**ked up Gerwalk, and that nobody actually seems to know what Gerwalk is supposed to look like (likely thanks to Bandai messing it up.)

anubis20 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 For me the Lil Drakens only work in fighter mode. They kinda look stupid in Gerwalk and Battroid IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chyll2 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I only want the missile attachment on the legs. Dont need the drone, sword and fixed shield Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scream Man Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I got mine, and i dig the set. The Sword and Shield add a surprising amount to the toy, and definitely makes it worth keeping in Battroid. The missile pods basically complete the plane, Im seriously considering gluing them into place. The Drakens are nice solo pieces. Look cool on their own, look cool with the plane overall. I'm sorry people aren't liking them, but I'm digging it. Hell getting it out even made me get better at transforming the plane back to fighter again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzmaLee74 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 NY shipped mine. Didn't ask for extra for shipping but mine was EMS. I personally like the drones attached to the fighter. Initially thought the sv-262 with them attached was a different fighter when I was watching the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does it do exactly? Since the wingtips will be folded for the Lil Drakens, those clear plastic pieces will help to tab in again the wing section back to the leg area for support. And IMHO, that's really a stupid idea. They should've figure this out beforehand. 5 hours ago, anubis20 said: For me the Lil Drakens only work in fighter mode.
