Yamato USA sent me replacement parts many years ago even though I live in Australia. You could try contacting them, but I don't like the chances of them still having any. Those toys were released about a decade ago.

There are a few upcoming Garland toys you could consider over the woeful Yamato version.

Thank you for the reply... I was afraid the thread was too far gone.

What are the other toys that you mentioned? 1/15th scale?

Can you send me a link?

Hello all,

You can add Northampton, PA to the great big map of who we are.

I realize that this is akin to thread-necromancy, but I am in great need of your help.

Several years ago I was able to buy the Garland Operations Unit toy from Yamato Toys. It is the red, white and brown version. (1/15 scale) After the fact I found that there were a lot of issues with certain hinges/joints not holding up. Alas, I found one.... two actually. The shoulder assembly cracked and now the arm barely hangs on. BUT the biggest problem I had was the "Swing arm" that holds the half-wheel assembly and swings back around to form the left shoulder...

The peg broke and now the shoulder is only held in place with the magnets.. The model is able to be transformed, but the "play" value is greatly diminished.

I read a post where Yamato was really good with replacement parts, but now I cannot find them online. Do they still exist? Does anybody know if there are replacement parts available anywhere?

I really need your help.
