I am sorry to read what happened and hope you are able to get replacements. Seeing the pics from Mommar and Kicker773 are painful to look at... I am waiting for my mine to arrive. *crosses fingers*
I am interested in purchasing the Yamato/Arcadia version and if you decide to make a Bandai compatible version, I would be definitely be purchasing those. My Bandai Valks out number my Yamato/Arcadia Valks.
Looking forward to seeing updates on this awesome project.
I didn't think about at first and realized the stands are designed for Yamato/Arcadia Valks. I think the stands are awesome, would you consider a version for Bandai DX Chogokin Valks too?
Thank you.
Wow, I am amazed at how much better the Arcadia Isamu pilot figure looks as compared to the pilot figures that come with the Bandai Valks. The Isamu figure looks larger? Maybe its because I am used to seeing the Bandai figures with stumps for limbs?
I think the Super chest armor should be able to fit. I was reading a blog post on Anymoon about mixing and matching armor packs for the V1 VF-25.
Its at the bottom of the page.

I have used nylon washers that I bought at the hardware store to tighten some joints on a some of my transformers. I have seen some that were was thin as a few pieces of paper.
