Then it must carry some big ass missiles!

Where did you stumble onto this info?

Outstanding! Can't wait to see what you dish out next. Maybe a battle damaged roy?

Gamestop says the new release date is 4/15.

I hope they pack it with a VF-1S Hikaru or maybe a 1S low-viz Since I missed out on the super armor, I wish Yamato would release like a limited edition Super Duper Armor Bundle Pack! That comes with valk, super armor and GBP armor. That would be so awesome... sigh, but thats wishful thinking.

I don't really like the new look of scott, but man is marlene hot though! Hopefully scott will look better in his armor.

I'll buy one if the price is right.

Good to hear that progress is being made on the armor, so how much longer do we have to wait for this?

Nice job , but the lines look a little too thick on the nose cone. I see you have trouble keeping the green alpha's head in place in fighter mode, I have the same prob. Everytime I get it in place it pops back out. I wish Toynami made it fit better.

I know they're different shades of gray. The 1st VF-11b is a little a darker than the fastpack version. Also the fastpack version comes with a pilot figure and better cut stickers, unlike the 1st release where the stickers look like they were cut by hand Thats the only differences I could think of at the moment.

Try grabbing the wings at different areas, then give it a wiggle and pull. You don't want to pull it too hard because the holes that allow the wings to be pushed in and pulled out are drilled too close to the inner edge of the wing; which might snap if your not careful. I don't have a pic of this, but if you take it apart you will see what I'm talking about. As for the legs you need to put a little force into it, but make sure you have a secure hold on the leg and thigh at the same time when extending it for battroid. If it doesn't work, try increasing the amount of force of your pulling gradually.

Your chest hatch is upside down Also hows the quality on your Rook? I recently bought one, but I sent it back because it was poorly painted and assembled, and got a replacement. Unfortunately I had to send my replacement back because that one was worse than the first and they were both numbered around 4000.

Actually that ugly toy would be a good idea for a custom. I haven't seen a custom toy or model yet that showed the chest with its internal systems

You forgot to post pics in gerwalk mode! But awesome job! I say keep your custom because its one of a kind. Also how long did it take for you to complete the custom?

Did you make sure the middle torso was collapsed all the way? It took me like 5 transformations before I finally figured out how to make it good in fighter again. Did you read the instructions carefully too? Because I didn't do that, and that's prolly why it took me soooo long. Yeah, I think that's it. It still doesn't want to move but I will monkey with it. Thanks for the reply. The instructions are pretty poor IMO but at least it's in English. The Toynami is a bit more complex than I imagined. Yeah, I had the same problem when I got my greenie. For some reason the greenie was really stubbern when it came to the middle torso and wouldn't go all way down. I have no tip on how to remedy and prevent the problem, but just be patient with it. It took me several tries before it finally collapsed. Maybe it needs to be broken in, but I doubt it. Yea, the instructions are kind of poor, but just the pictures can really help sometimes.

Another way to position the guns, but this way prevents the wings from folding all the way back.

Back view.

The Alpha reaching for it's gun.

Well, hurry up and post 'em! In the mean time I'll post mine.

Never thought of having the gu-xx in that affixed position before, and sounds like a good idea. I'm gonna try that out! Hmm...I wonder how it would look with two of them

That sucks, my boxes are still holding up...so far. You should make a formal complaint to toynami and ask for replacement boxes. Can you post a pic of the parts on the box peeling away?

Watch then gun hand. The damn thing is fragile as hell. Yup, the fingers broke on me when I was trying to attach the gun on my blue alpha. Waiting for my replacement hands to come in, but now when I try to attach the guns on my other alphas I just connect it to the palm without wrapping the fingers around the gun handle.

I heard it just makes the whole head glow when you turn it on... I can vouch for that! Ever time I turn that thing on it reminds of how thin and poor the plastic is, compared to the yamatos. Which Valk do you have? I just switched on the light in my Max VF-1J, and only the only part that lights up is what's supposed to. For the 35 bucks I spent on it, it's not a bad display piece. I just can't afford a Yamato at the moment. I have rick's vf-1j, which was the first and last mpc valkyrie I bought. Where did you pick up your max for 35?

Me thinks you're only of that opinion because there's no light in your Yamato to show you how thin that plastic really is... Hmm.. good point. *grabs mini keychain flashlight and shines it in my vf-1s to check*
