  1. Am not sure if its the same thing but was commenting on the hip intakes connecting to the body via tabs. On mine, the legs stay connected to the body after tabbing them with both legs on in gerwalk mode. Yea its kind of a bummer due to it being the 0s. However, dont thk there is a rush to cancel yet until after some reviews have come out. But knowing arcadia there wouldnt be pre-order madness anyway and you can still hv a chance to resecure it if reviews are positive.
  2. I think it had something to do with the weight balance as two legs attached to the underside of the valk meant the leg weight on one leg tab was halved, or in other words leg weight was shared when both leg tabs were in. Thats just my observation after i had both of them retabbed in versus when i was struggling with just one leg.
  3. SV-51? talk abt more delicateness!
  4. Who knows if they did a robust enough test...maybe they used ppl with delicate fingers to transform and it passed!...
  5. My conclusion is they should have made the ball larger to handle the stress of puling on the legs.
  6. That thought has been running through my mind for the longest while as well...
  7. They should have made the hip ball/socket joint bigger to be able to handle the stress of pulling on the legs...
  8. Similar to mine and jenius it seems to be the left leg..tho with yeti's i thk it was the right..
  9. That gerwalk review turned hilarious with that unattached leg although i know it was not meant to be hilarious...no offense.... The reason the leg tab to the underside of the plane doesnt stay too well is because the other leg was unattached. Once both legs were attached to the metal swing bar, they fitted in nice and tight in gerwalk mode. Thanks for the honest review though...I was put off as well when the leg fell off, but after i got it fixed, really enjoyed the valk with its new proportions and handling.
  10. Talking abt the 0a colors, I thk its a unique color, I thk only the vf4 comes near ....and with its shape, looks like a truly navy spec bird!
  11. They should have provided the dang stickers this time second that and make it fire at gatling gun rate....
  12. Does it umm...do anything? Shoot? I wonder if these pose problems getting thru customs nowadays with all the sensitivity abt security.
  13. I wondered the same when all these happened. After opening up and fixing the bum leg, it would seem similar to what Scylla mentioned abt friction. the joint feels tighter as the plastic provides friction against the metal surface, sort of like a rubberized surface. Metal against metal won't be as sticky and in the long run will be loose as the metal surfaces smooth out each other. That's my observation. The Qc issue was abt tolerances of the half plastic ball being too large and not to spec. It also left a gap for adhesive to seep thru and contaminate the hip chamber resulting in the hip socket being stuck to the half ball half metal joint. However it would seem not everyone experiences it but I do think if it was a car it would result in a recall!

    Hi-Metal R

    dont worry am sure some will turn up nearer release date...just keep eyes open!
  15. How is that transforming lego even possible!! Does anyone know how to do it, ie is there a manual or what needs to be bought to create a transforming lego?
  16. Walküre...https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Die_Walk%C3%BCre Perhaps clues to delta storyline can be found in the german opera.....did kawamori travel or become a fan of german opera by any chance? (i thk we will know who are the kawamori stalkers, if so...just j/king..)
  17. haha nice one....

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Yikes! Now i remember what irked me abt the 30 too! Though i thk the 31 is slightly more visible due to the blue ... it is a minor thing, time to forget abt it again
  19. forgot abt that! nice! so perhaps add-ons are on the cards then .....well but those things are big if's....for now am resigned to getting arcadia's version! Just have to close my eyes to all the good stuff i have to let go due to the $ commitment... If i decide to go 1/100 i can always find a way, like releasing stuff back into the wild ...
