I feel your pain - its really simple to fix actually. Just glue it back together and when you do so - keep slowly moving so that you can still move the joints back and front for transformations between battroid and fighter. Its not the end of the world, trust me. If you need more info scroll back a couple of pages for some tips and advice as it happened to me a couple of months ago.

yeah..don't forget man....the antennas are not removable, they can be popped off but can't be put back in, unless you're willing to suffer..... Sorry for the side-tracking - I got mines fixed, followed the advice of a fellow poster - nothing good old crazy glue cannot fix - both antennas are good to go now - just a bit of warping on the left one - oh yeah - tampo printing rub off is kinda well...a bit bad - hopefully some enamel repaint touchup will suffice - and yeah, don't move the legs too much because the upper part of the intakes rub off against the sides of the plane, looks very bad when transformed in plane mode - mines is great, but afraid to really get him into many crazy poses because of the tampo rub off

You know the brand name of this glue??

You know what - you are right. Thank you so much for the support, I'm not throwing $150 plus on another figure - this can be easily fixed and I will try it too. I will take pics to provide support for others who happen to be in the same situation. Anyways - I guess tomorrow, no partying or drinking - just staying at home with the crazy glue and blue tac - operation VF25F antenna fix will start up. I'm pretty positive it will be successful, I need to completely tear of the loose, weakened, teared ball joint - re-crazy-glue, sand the ball just enough to fit in again - and reinsert. If loose - blue tac, as I do need the antenna to be fit enough to move between transformations without falling. Problem solved. Thank you so much for the support guys - is just, this has been my most expensive item I have ever bought, and man did it hurt so much when that happened....(I got misty, dunno if anyone else reacts the same way, heh) Will post later tomorrow to let you guys know what happened!! EDIT: Ahhh, thanks UN Spacy, that was exactly what I had in mind - thank you so much for the support guys, I feel so...loved here (damn self-esteem issues...) and yes I was aware of the paint application problems in this figures - it was the reason I popped off the lasers in the first place - I wanted to re-insert the head in battorid mode because the back of it kept getting scratched against the back piece of the wing frame - however, I soon realized I was so f*cked because the ball joints of the lasers were almost impossible to put back in.....

ahh thanks man, I don't know, I just feel so depressed right now looking at this thing of perfection - Maybe someone should start a warning thread of the dangers of transforming a vf25 DX as to inform and enlighten people so that they may learn from our mistakes....I don't know - Anyways - you think Bandai issues replacements parts or am I better off buying another one? (thinking of keeping this Alto for transforming purposes to maximize transforming experiences and perks......

Quite true, for anyone out there - please do NOT ever remove the head lasers for the vf-25F, I made that sad mistake and found myself struggling for over 40 minutes trying in to put it back in. I was so dumb enough to think they would pop back in when putting the head in, because it popped out when going to Gerwalk to Battroid mode, and I suffered so much. They have rubber balljoints which make them so durable inside the head - but once they are taken out depression hit me so hard. I was left with one antenna in the verge of having its main joint broken from the stress I applied when trying to pop it back in the head - the rubber head joint of the antenna is so tick its almost impossible unless shaved off to reinsert which eases the insertion of it. However as I detailed before - one of my antennas is really loose...I feel so depressed...I feel like just breaking it off and try to somehow find another rubber piece which to shave off enough, glue and re-insert but for now, I can only watch this perfect figure be so......fragile... .......that was a great first post here..... Anyone else run into the same problem as me? as far as I know everything holds up pretty well and there seems to be no problem whatsoever, just that....
