Negotiator

Why thank you, edwin. I didn't order a dx rvg though, only the 1/72 if only to satisfy my ghost needs. Let's face it, Luca didn't anything I did try the alt neck with the armor and it still works fine as long as you keep the shoulders at a horizontal level and since the shoulder armor is on ball joints instead of pegs, you can mess with it more to give it a nice angle. *I think I need a new 25F, it's been so abused.

My 25g contribution: Flip the sniper rifle around and attach the connector thingy. Wedge the connector between the wrists. You can't 'whoosh' around with it like that, but it does the job for display without mutilating anything. Also a few layers of super glue(with the brush applicator) on the thigh armor attach points have helped it stay nice and snug. And please, attach it when it's dry...lol

The lowest bidding factory wins for bandai's business. This factory must Have satisfied bandai requirements but whether the factory has outsourced Certain parts or it's within their own division, somebody is has gotten lazy And now you have production flaws. I don't blame bandai because I'm sure This isn't what they wanted. Anyway for those of you that can't bend the knee w/ sp, use the OTHER knee joint That's connected to the thigh. It's tuff to move at first, but it does move.

@ ff95gi Your rvf actually looks pretty cool. More military like. I was never a fan of pastel green.

Don't have a stand, but I can hold it at the intakes and the legs stay up. ------ I think most people are dissatisfied with the toy design flaws. There's plenty of things that could have been improved without sacrificing durability. They just need to think about it a little longer. Example, the knee caps prevent a real gerwalk mode. There should be small pegs at the very end of the back plate to connect to the end of the legs for fighter mode and not where they have it now, which is behind the knees. The small fins should cant at an angle, they would only of needed to make that slit a little bit wider. I could go on, but meh. I accept it for what it is.

There is a way to simply make the legs come up higher, like so... Don't force the wing plate pegs to snap into the legs. This peg is what seems to prohibit the legs from going higher. If it were at a slight angle instead of straight down, it would work better. You can still connect the legs and the wings together via the peg, but just don't push it in all the way. The side effects are slight gap in the knees and gun pod will touch the ground.

doesn't look like shiny plastic. hope it stays that way. thanks for the pics!

*stares at the quarter instead*

which is what makes that part hard to believe... IF they retooled it that much they need to release it bundled with sp or ap to get their customers to double dip so soon. these are hard times, even for japan.

Graham, just curious but are you transforming the G's neck the "right" Way or the instruction's way? I can't tell with all the armor on.

Ya, I meant when the ankles are extended. Thanks drifand. Too bad about the thigh armor Just poppong off

Great pix everyone. Now how strong are the ankle locks in sp batt mode?

They're all great colors but i think you cant go wrong with nora or ivanov. if you get the cf one, you might always wonder "what if I had a main villan's' fighter". personally i have ivanov and nora. the dark grey is cool and all but nora's has that hot rod feel to it. (for me it does anyways). good luck on your decision!

I get what he's saying. Even though there is a ball joint there, you're only able to spin the arm around like the old star wars figures. Of course you could move the rest of the shoulder to make it more dynamic. The 1/72 model does actually have a joint there that lets you move the arm outwards.

Does anyone really know how the landing gears are supposed To come out if the armor is covering the whole shin?

simple solution: the armor itself can have it's own landing gears. edit: ya beat me to it

You didn't extend the ankles out. That is why it's short.

You'd think after retooling them, they coud have just fixed the wings to mount the speakers or missiles

whitening tooth paste applied with a damp q-tip works too. Same thing as taking the yellow or stains out of teeth.

@ eriku Mine had the same problem and as edwin said, apply a thin layer of superglue to the crotch part where the peg goes in. Mine now holds very tight after multiple transformations. lol there's so many innuendos here.

Ya, that's what scares me

Hells to the motherf'n ya!!!!! Roughly $190+ usd whew, I almost impulsed bought the standalone. Guess that cash will go to the vf-1d now. *I hope it's true!

rfv-25 - 1/72 with superpack in fighter mode vf-25g - with and without packs and alt between fighter and battroid. vf-25f - when the 25g doesn't have packs on. I'll put it on this one and alt between the 2 modes. vf-25s - don't have it. should I get it now??? or wait??? I want armor for it and will probably give in to seperate packs if thats the only way to get them. I wish they would just say.

you have NO choice but to get it and you know it!
