I got my G today, but haven't had a chance to play much yet.

That said its now been 13 days since I paid for my 25F on Nippon yasan. It has said "preparation in progress" for the last 10. They have ignored several messages thought their contact form, so today I emailed them saying I expect a response in 24hrs or I'll open a Paypal dispute. Thank GOD I paid by PayPal!

I mean getting the G was slow, but this wait with the F is ridiculous.

don´t worry i´m a really big client of NY because much of my anime bussiness runs with their supply, they could be really slow but you will have your product 100% sure

Ozma rocks ! ( negative. looks like defold haha )

:3 many months of waiting, troubles and spends has ended to this hahha :

ohh yeahhhhh

I'm having problems transforming it back to fighter with the shoulders keep on popping out. Is there any video out there to transform the thing properly back to fighter?

yes, the shoulders are tricky, but are exactly the same of the red version

just see a video of the transformation on the red one, and will be exactly the same

one question..does yf-25g's blue paint get scrap off easily?

as far as i know 25g it´s white paint over blue plastic

This is an awesome piece..but the paint on the black parts can be easily scratch off..especially during transformation.. :(/>

Much of the paint on the back of the valkyrie head had already been scratched off after 1 - 2 transformations.. :angry:/>

extreme thanks, precisely tomorrow i was going to sell one, and needed to transform it in fighter again, thanks to your warning i keept without scratches the head, but it was very difficult, you´re right, the neck it´s really hard to go back to the fighter position, any kind of distraction there will scratch the back of the head, i´m not sure if i did it right because i don´t want to verify opening again ... haha

another problem i´m seeing are the big die cast blocks of the shoulders, the plack paint of them is really easy to scratch while you are transforming it, if the wings aren´t as back as they can do, the pointy plastick scratch a little the black paint of the die cast.

other observation is that seems really fragile... i had only the vf-25s renewal, but not the yf-29, and this one seems much more fragile in parts and paint, this one is hard to transform, is needed a lot of patience, attention and some luck to do it well

but unless everything... i love it :3

I like the glare in the cockpit, is it Sheryl's earring?

Oh ! it´s true, that was a hidden bonus :3 hahah

I made a little video, nothing great, but a close up in 1080p this pic is only a preview :3 soon i will upload the link here

(i´m making the lining on the durandal superparts, that´s why one is lined and the other don´t )

here is the video :

When the first renewal VF-25F was released my friend in Japan told me he expected renewal version of all the parts, including the Tornado parts. Will he be right? Time will tell... but I suspect he nailed it.

of course that all the packs are needed, because the figures are different, even things like the galia pack will need to be released again :3 , well i suppose, if dont, the new figures will be incomplete... in fact, i really expect that more packs and things will be released than the original version

(like the ozma tornado pack of the game and things like that)

I just receive the bird yesterday,

It s nicer than in picture in fact

just a little couple of seconds after the bird goes out of the box a little cleaning ...et voila

Next thing try to to rebuild the green canopy

Have a nice day ...

did you added the skulls on the rear fins ?

i will add to mine, i have 4 of them of my vf-0a but them are gray... maybe looks good, but i need to wait to have my 30th, in about 20 days :3

Tip:

Easiest way i know to post pictures here it´s uploading the pics directly to facebook, (you can use any pic of your facebook gallery)

Then right click on the picture and copy URL,

And reply the post using the "add image" button, then paste the URL in the frame and that´s all :3 (also can use directly the "img" code to the URL)

I love how the piloto turn his head to the camera behind the purple canopy like saying : "I have a f-35 and you dont" hahhaa

I needed to share this pics :3 maybe the best pilots in all the series covering their backs

Maximum damage taken:

Ozma Lee, One booster exploded by covering with his back a vajra major attack to the quarter´s command center

- (Almost killed by close and direct hit from an angry Vajra)

гг Иванов, 3 or 4 bullets in the arm, in an big effort of Roy Focker himself riding a VF-0s Armored Valkyrie

- (Killed in a hand to hand vs... AFOS !!! "torino hito")

Taking pictures with low light and high sensitive camera of the galaxy s2

I gotta be honest, I actually kinda dig the white tampograph against the white plastic. It's subtle but I actually like the way it looks. Probably in a minority opinion here though.

those SMS 030 are ok, the real problem is on the superparts... they put the skull white on white wings ... that´s what i´m worried about :S, the SMS 030 means that they are really capable to do it... i hope they put the skulls black or gray...

sugoii nice pics !

i can´t wait to have it :3 i ordered but will take some time, but with this pictures again confirm, that i like the white even more than the red one i have a fast pack for the red one (but the valky don´t) , i will use that pack on my 30th version :3 i hope that be cool hhaha maybe don´t .. I can´t wait !!!

Ugh. My VF-25S is suffering from severely floppy hip joint syndrome. I've removed one of the legs and covered the ball joint with 2 coats of clear nail polish, and that didn't help a single bit. What should I try next?

i take some sand paper and "polish" the balls, that helps a lot but you must do it after the super glue or nail polish (i used super glue) or you will remove the "paint" or coat that colors the die cast, the point it´s to quit the mirror polished of the ball, i think that solution will last longer

maybe alto is recovering from one of the many moments he hits the hospital

excellent :3 ahmmm

so i will show you my prototype :3 it was top secret but this will keep this missile rain on way haha

just a few more missiles and details, and will be ready the first launcher :3

not enough, i will add more missiles ! ! :3

this image (and isn´t the only one) is what i refer, look at the right wing:

Maybe some monitor configurations doesn´t let to see the white leters

I agree Twoducks, they should have left the green for the clear parts on the nose and I was also surprised they did not paint the stand. They did the same thing on the VF-171EX when I feel like they should have put a NUNS logo on the base. As far as the YF-29 30th, it does not have any SMS logos on the wing but it does have the the markings on the leg. This to me is enough to include a stand with the SMS logo on it if that makes any sense.

also haves SMS 030 in the back of the wings right ? white letters on white plastic ?

dang seem to have missed it! guess i'll see if they are back online later. anyoen have the direct link though?

here is the link, but All the page is down

Nippon-Yasen is down at the moment. What was the price on the super parts?

I'm totally not seeing the skulls on the super parts.

There are over the wings, but are white in the white part....

i´m pretty sure that ban-dai again wants to make a disscussion over that topic and then fix it making the skulls

black or grey or moving it to another place...

and appear as a hero :3 haha

NY is down now.... maybe they have now 1000 orders with a price too low....

that means: many otakus happy and one NY employee fired hahaha

maybe, but, in that case, i can live with two super parts sets one with black lining and other original

you can sell the parts later maybe, ( i pre-ordered 4 of them with payment on may) :3
