That was one of the theories that a former member on the boards mentioned it @Pontus (have zero idea if it’s actually true). Styrofoam and plastic clear trays are made from stuff that can “gas” out fumes and leech onto the surface of the next item that it contacts it, plus that item itself that we got it also may have other materials that have off gasses that may cause yellowing as well. It’s like pleather on some 1:12 and 1:6 scale figures. Pleather is a curse in these things as it know as a cheap version of synthetic leather and it will destroy itself in very humid environments, but there are cases that it has zero effect on other instances. * Sidenote: Bonded leather materials are also s*** as they will definitely degrade overtime and you’ll be left with multiple flake material that looks like snake that just recently molted.

I actually have the renewal 27y and the renewal Alto 171EX with the corresponding add on set @Apok451, so I don’t have to waste my money in getting the Revival versions of each. 🙂 I’m wondering if we’ll ever get a Revival Maruyuma 171EX as I’ve seen the prices on that starting to get to mid to high 30kish yen on those. The yellowing is another issue on those if you do manage to find one at decent price.

So that means that I can shred my copy of the revival 27y. 😁 Edit: Maybe the Revival 171EX Alto and the corresponding add on too.

$116 USD, delivery date not announced.

Since he's been peppered sprayed on Mezco's Instagram, Sparky is most definitely a Wednesday drop. Edit: Here's the load out
-
Very possible that this will be the next drop Want it? Then be prepared for the eventual pre-order to go live.

I think the Revival 27y hip joints are not as tight as Bandai didn't want to over tighten them during the shipping process and not shatter apart upon transformation (if it does happen?) but you don't want it like the WWM Blue 25 which was a total flop upon taking it out from the box (or like Onnasake's DX YF-19 Full Set explode at the hip joints when he tried to the transformation to battriod mode not knowing that those three screws where on very tight).

Just had a thought here after reading all of the posts here, as know it shouldn’t be in this thread in general, however I’m going to ask. With the advent of the Sentinel Tread showing up recently (or about to make it’s rounds eventually), there will be collectors that will be interested in combining the Legoiss and Tread together on the Archi Stand and how would the weight distribution be distributed between the different arms and special adapters that will have to be made?
-
Phtt…. Bandai couldn’t be even bothered to make the M&M 1J set with Supers even if they cared. Just leave everything half a** done and there will still be collectors complaining about as well.
-
So no love for Max’s or Miria’s 1J then (as per the model kits by Imaii or from Bandai back in the day). So.. that means Bandai is going to leave us high and dry by way their teased yet never will be done projects (which seems to be the norm)
-
Are you serious Bandai? This was teased more than five years ago when Hikaru’s GBP was shown in public with Max’s version of the GBP as well. Bandai said that they were not going to make it, but they decided to after all (now 6/7 (?) yrs after the DX 1j & GBP combo set was released). 🤨

Up tomorrow on Mondo. I think that you guys should know who these are? If not, then you might have skipped over them as they're not to your liking. -
Do I need to tell anyone here who this is?

That's one thing that irks me in regards to Heppoko Samurai's post, no further explanations on why so and so doesn't work and there's no proper explanations on how to fix it. I get this is first impressions, but its like he's condoning that this version of the revival 27y is not up to snuff.

I'm stuck between the Scorched Xeno and the Big Chap Version 2, but the issue with the melting jaw with the first iteration of the Big chap has got me on the sidelines for now. Waiting to see further confirmation of the possible changes to solidify my decision. -
Looks like that Heppoko Samurai has not been reading in between the lines in the respective threads in regarding the yellowing of the various valks in its proper threads or just experienced it now.
