So I've glued back the Yamato display stand connector (the tip is broken). And testing some repair work. Earlier was testing to add the broken tip with 3D pen PLA but it didn't work. Too weak to support SV-51's weight. Then tested few ways of AB casting.

wow, loosk amazing. You have a fast hand!
-
Finally, got mine too from HobbySearch. Not too much crumple on the shipper brown box. I just realized Nora released had cancelled the window box display. WHY!? I like the convention box since Yamato that have a window can see through the fighter. Anyway, hope the Arcadia one can last longer and doesn't change color over time like my Yamato's one (both wing's hinges).
-
Yes it does. Speaking of digging out the old Nora, I took it out have a look while having the "thirst" of waiting the Acardia one. My display stand's adaptor somehow broke and all fell down on the floor. 😠Managed to glue everything back but no longer perfect.
-
wow, thanks for sharing. Is that waterslide decal?
-
Exactly, the shop seller gave me the explanation was that someone sabotaged it before mailing it to me.
-
Yes, managed to return it. phew....
-
This was the broken unit that I shared about having two legs issue and selling cheaper. But when I received it, it is more broken parts.
-
Anyone got your Nora? Mine still stuck at Customs. Already 5 days and yet to release. However, I am happy to receive pre-owned Ivanov. I have phobia and been receiving broken unit last time. Thank goodness this time is perfect one.
-
Agreed with you. I enjoy too.
-
Got my Kiki today and applied on my Yamato SV-51 Nora's folded wing. The result is amazing! Thanks for recommending such a good tool.
-
Yes, same here, really like the Ivanov version. Too bad I am late to the party. Can't get any now. Previously saw the last piece from Hobby-Genki and later was told it was a listing error.
-
When I looked for SV-51 Nora yesterday and found out that Hobby Genki has the last piece of SV-51 Ivanov. So I checked out just today. Hopefully this unit has no problems such as same ankle. This is my first time using Hobby Genki. Are they reliable? Thanks!
-
I also just paid 36800yen for the SV-51. Bit cheaper than AmiAmi (37600yen). Such a relief to see this SV-51 is not sold out in seconds like DX Chogokin. Anyway, I didn't preorder it.
-
LOL, I have not transform too.
-
Just to update I received my SV-51 but returned it. The unit is not just same ankle issue but also with broken wing and flap. Too bad, perhaps need to wait for Nora release. But I have Yamato version already. I just want an Arcadia Ivanov.
-
Wow, this is madness collection.
-
Both of mine are okay. Same as bro Anasazi37, popped off a few times while installing. But now it stays firmly. Applied some force to snap-in.

😵
-
Nice display you have there, mate. Where can I get the same display stands like yours? Looks like custom made to me.
-
wow, how did you do it? Do you mind to share? Repaint or using hydrogen peroxide method?
-
Wow, all are still white and no yellowish. My Alto already yellowed 🥲
-
By any means, I love this matt finishing.
-
I bought it from China via Taobao platform. The seller 3D printed the connectors (top and bottom) so that it can be used together with the flexi bracket on Bandai stand.
-
I've opened my VF-25 WWM. First look, fell in love with the color scheme and the matte surface. Carefully examined it, not too bad. Just little paint stained (on the wings) and glue stained (on the left ankle piecing). Saw some small scratches marks at the edge of the plastics. Probably due to transformation (friction between plastics) by factory workers during packing.
