I think that we are all pleased with the VF-25
the design of the vf-25 has a lot to do with it
a sleek fighter mode !
but if this toy has poor articulations for sure
it feels really floppy or too tight on some parts
For those who have the bird : you can test the following, you will see what I mean
when bending the legs to the gerwalk mode from fighter it does not do a nice multi locking sound behind the air intake, it just go straight down to a 90° angle with a medium pressure
(I prefer when you need to force a bit)
regarding the knee section :
It is more noticible when you only hold the legs of the toy (still in gerwalk mode), the knee are not secured and locked
or simply place the gerwalk on a table a touch the nose
the toy is balancing from back to forward
I do not think that it is a reliable toy unfornately
strange from Bandai but well I do not have any non macross toy from them
I wish it had the same articulation as vf-1 v2 from yamato
Honestly, my dream will be a yamato vf-25
anyway lucky us for having a v2
