VF-1J GBP and Super

[hevangel2]

I just tried to swap the armour of GBP and my old VF-1J super out of curious.

I found that the old VF-1J is compabale with the GBP armour (except one minor issue), but the new VF-1J is incompatable with the old FP.

The peg size of the fist is slightly larger in the new VF-1J.

I have to force the big fist into the old one.

The new VF-1J use the new gunpod, so the arm piece of the old FP won't fit the new gun pod. However, it doesn't fit the old gunpod either, please take a look at the picture.

Worked fine on mine.

Interesting report, but most people will either:

a) get the armor by itself to go with an existing VF--in which case by your account, all they have to deal with is a tight fit on the hands

or

b) get the armor + 1J bundle and either keep them together or put the armor on another valk--again, no real problem

I don't think many people are going to get the bundle and then use the bundled 1J with Super/Strike parts from another Valk. At least, I wouldn't, considering you never see the combo with Hikaru's paint scheme.

well i would like to try the armour on a max valk which i think most probably will work fine.
