ArchieNov Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 (edited) It's no big deal. I highlighted the area where you missed a step in the pink circle. The shoulder should be rotated outward first, then downward on the 2nd hinge (as shown in step 13 of the manual) Edited July 16, 2015 by ArchieNov Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArchieNov Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 To those that already have their copy, what color is the stripe under the NUNS triangle? And is it close to the CF stripe color? My CF triangles are still intact, but was thinking I might want to swap them out with this one's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scyla Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 (edited) On this one the stripe is gray. It has the same color as the trim on the plane (the one that is red on the Alto Custom). On the CF the stripe has the same color as the highlights on the rest of the Valkyrie. I assume you have the CF so you know what color they are. Sadly they are not close in color. On the Alto one the stripe is red and on the Luca one it is green so It seems that the ones form this version would stick out the least.

hkj711 Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 I just opened my copy and found out that one of the articulated hands were missing (the hands that are already attached to the figure hidden in the arm). For those of you who have not yet inspected your copy, you might want to check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duymon Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 I picked up this guy from mandrake for just 20000. Pretty satisfied and think I'll only have one since most of my 171 space is dedicated to my cf-171 fleet :0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArchieNov Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I think this version is the most well built among all the 171s so far. Most of it is pretty tight, even the wing pegs. But unfortunately the swing bar in the hips wasn't improved from before. I really wish they used a system similar to the VF-19 or something for it rather than relying on a spring loaded ratchet.
