Fair enough. I own 3x - VF-29s and all of them have floppy/weak hips with very little playwear - just standing and posing them in battroid mode. Very disappointing. Haven't had any weak hips with my VF-1s.
^ This. But I suspect the best we can hope for, is if the Tomahawk sells well, then Arcadia re-issues the Defender. * looks up wishfully *
I doubt they would create new molds for the other 2 destroids.
^ Gosh, I hope this doesn't happen.
I have 1x Yamato Tomahawk but would definitely get another if the price is reasonable. Would love to get an olive or weathered version.
^ Both of my YF-29s are the same. I bought the 30th Fokker and Ozma versions, posted them in battroid for about a year and when I moved them, they were floppy as hell. Unable to hold a pose at all.
PSA: looks like the stand alone Armor kit is now "common" leveling at 10,000 yen at Mandarake ...
