  1. Question: Is it possible to remove the "boob" guns or are they glued into place? I just noticed that the guns on my unit aren't aligned properly. I've tried pulling them out but it won't budge.
  2. Just read your review. FINALLY, someone I agree 100% with. Honestly, I didn't understand why people were praising this toy like it was the best thing ever while ignoring the obvious flaws that it had. While I agree that it has a lot of good points, I just didn't feel it was fair that others would be just ignoring these flaws, the same kind of flaws they would be so unforgiving about if it was a Bandai product (not proportioned like the line art, prone to scratches in some areas, gappiness, etc). I don't really favor one company over the other, but I would at least like people to maintain a fairly objective stance when reviewing these things. Each product has its own pros and cons, let's learn to recognize and accept these for what they are but at the end of the day, let's all be happy that these toys are actually being made.
  3. For a moment there, I thought the VF-25 was mounting the Shield Liger...
  4. That is a matter of opinion I personally find the YF-29 1S color scheme quite nice and much better than the 19P. The 19P looks like something that has ketchup and mustard on it.
  5. Damn that looks awesome. Can't wait to get mine. Glad to see that it can stand by itself in battroid mode with all that weight in the back and also that the back doesn't droop in gerwalk.
  6. Hmm, that's unexpected. On my unit the lock on the bar is pretty secure and can hold up the weight of the legs without being undone, even when I lift up the battroid and jiggle it. It's possible that everyone else who's still having problems with it may have forced the swing bar too much in the past, and have loosened the locking mechanisms. I could be wrong though and may be a QC issue. Well, at least I tried. I really hoped that this would've addressed everyone's swing bar issue.
  7. Yeah, you're only going to hear the click on the right swivel bar. But like Kanedas Bike mentioned, the right and left bars do move in conjunction with one another, so locking the right is the click you're after and will lock the left as well. But as I said earlier, there may still be a little swing remaining, but it should be a whole lot more secure now. Besides, that's how you're really supposed to transform it. Also, perhaps I may need to mention that when swinging the bars forward, you should move them together as if they're one piece.
  8. To everyone having a problem with the hip swing bar: Earlier today, I was looking at the manual of the 171 again and the stand adaptor for battroid mode. I've figured out that we're supposed to tilt the swing bar forward while it's extended. You should NOT push them back in. Tilting it forward will make the hips move a little higher and to the front and help lock the swing bars. You'll hear a click once it's in place. The legs will be a lot more secure now. They still swing a little, but nowhere like it did without tilting it forward. With that, I no longer have any issues with the 171. I love it even more now. So again, do NOT push them swing bar in while in battroid mode and do NOT jam the gear doors between them. Just keep them extended like the instructions say and swing them forward till you hear the click. Hope that helps everyone on this board.
  9. The answer is yes. The two tabs are supposed to connect to the back of the Quarter. And yes, the waist bar on my Quarter is also tight as hell so it's very difficult to swing it into place.
  10. Hello. I've been reading a lot about the "Gerwalk ankle issue" and how the ankles can't be pointed down as much as others would like. But at the same time, I see pics like the ones here that show that the aggressive A-stance pose is indeed possible. http://gamu-toys.info/goukin/yamato/vf19kaif/vf19kaif02.html Are you able to replicate these? Or will doing so cause the ankles to loosen as it is being reported?
