I just found out that the Series 2 Weapons Pack also includes the joint stabilizers, including pieces for the elbows and heels.

I also got the Yamato Parachute Sack. Do you guys know that it came with extra pieces that strengthened the armpit joints and stiffened the toes of the mechs? It was a cool surprise to me, and now my v1.0 Scopedog is much more stable.

Did you hunt down one of the Wonderfest conversion kits for the Purple Bear?

Yeah, I saw it on your website. Been looking for it ever since, no luck. Until I find one, this will have to do.

To be clear, the Purple Bear visor I'm using here comes from the Strong Bacchus set.

nice job!

Thanks man.

Got the Melquiya version of the v1.0 Scopedog, gonna turn it into a Purple Bear. The v1.0 mold isn't that bad. The only difference I see with v2.0 is the angle of the hip joint lock and the lack of ratchets on the toes.

Looks great, I think Yamato was pretty limited in the production run size for the latter relates. I paid a grip for my Odon set

Apart from rarity, would you know how The Last Red Shoulder Custom set is better than Red Shoulder v2.0? I have the latter, and it's pretty solid even with all the add ons.

Sweet looking Bacchus!

Thanks man.

Here are a few more Votoms from my collection.

Hello, everyone. Long time lurker, first time poster here.

I've recently become addicted to everything Votoms. My recent acquisitions are the v1.5/2.0 Yamato 1/12s. And I made this (thanks for the email, bong):

I have a question for you guys. What's the difference between the latest releases like the one below and the v1.5/2.0s? From my experience, the latter ain't too bad. There's some looseness and fiddliness, to be sure, but nothing a bit of nail polish can't fix. Why are the latest releases going for 3 times or more than what the v1.5/2.0 go for?
