    Transforming VF-0S

    in Model kits

    Posted

    WOWWY!!!!! IT'S NIICE~!!! (/borat). Woah... that goes to show you can either spend your time working to save up for a yamato VF-0S or you can go make your own out of a couple of hasegawa kits! lololol.

    I'm happy with my yamato products... so far. I've had no real issues where I can't play with them or transform them. My VF-0Shin is nice, so there's no problem there. My VF-0S had some excess glue on the head and some small stress marks on the shoulders, but that doesn't stop me from transforming him. I just loosen the shoulders and disassembled the thing, yanked on the head and scrapped away the excess glue... lol (yea it's not what some of you are thinking, even though it does!).

    I got spare head replacements parts (a couple sets of shoulders, heads) coming from HLJ. Yea I paid for them, but its only because I've had an extra VF-0S sitting in the box from BBTS and thought I should have the extra shoulders for future reference if I'm ever to open it!

    Hell when I get the spare heads in I'm going to take apart the one I currently have, fix it and maybe drop some LEDS or run up some fiber optic lighting and post a how to thread/reply here somewhere on the forums. I just paid for the parts like 15 minutes ago, so they should be here in about 2 or so weeks.

    I'm happy with my expensive Yamato toys. Toys are toys... they eventually break if you play with them too much. If they break right out of the box do what majority here would say: contact the distributor, then the company, if not then fix it yourself if you can. If you can't be successful on any of those then you're always going end up upset over it. If you don't want to be upset by any of it at all then stop playing with toys. I can guarantee you that you will be upset with something that you get or do in life. Me? I try fixing it instead of ranting about it and yea I may show a little disapproval/disappointment, but that won't stop me from trying to have fun with whatever I can get out of it. lol XD

    Damn those are some pretty nasty stress marks. Did your valk come in a nicely shipped box or was it crushed to hell (http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?s=&showtopic=22702&view=findpost&p=496158)? It looks like they mightve handled it poorly during assembly or maybe when they tried packing it into the plastic housing they ended up jamming it or smashing it in there. -=\

    I've had a similar case with my 1st gen 1/60 YF-19, but mine was self inflicited because one of their workers decided to get glue happy (http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=21130&pid=495951&st=120entry495951).

    Hmm... I got one with the fast packs as well. I didn't open it, but I did check through the window of the box with a MAG flashlight and didn't notice any visble stress marks (like yours). -=\

    Where did you get the 19 from (store, site, company)?

    I did notice something different about the FP 19. They did change (in that stress area you have highlighted) they decreased the corner into more of a curve where the fuselage splits. -=X

    Crooked gunpod fix?

    OIC... nice. Has anyone here added a bit to the GunPod to make it strait like that.. I dont have a list of materials i need so correct me if I am wrong

    hot glue-- i <_<

    exacto knife <_<

    plastic ruler ^_^

    Does the gun look funny with that peice of plastic on it?? and Does the battroid still hold it correctly?

    thanks

    You should skim/read the whole thread (not just the first page) because it actually pertains to the YF-19 entirely. The thread contains the replies, links and fixes/modifications for more than just the gunpod.

    Yea... I was surprised too...

    BTW:

    Is this anime accurate or is it just mine? I also noticed that they don't have the "311" tampo print on theirs. Did they just throw something together (parts of different VF-0) for their picture?

    I'm probably going to do a custom paint job just to make it look nicer. Since I figured all the VF-0(s) have them.

    Hmm... I just noticed something on the ghost that came with the shin. The rivets that hold the wheels in on the rear landing gear were riveted down so much that the wheels don't spin. Has anyone noticed this yet?

    1/60 YF-19 Fast Packs & Fold Booster

    Similar to VF0s, it attach to the leg using magnet, the FAST pack itself dose not hold to the legs very well in battriod mode (it is much heavier the VF0, and more solid), but in the fighter mode the FAST became less easier to fall off due to the rear wing's peg is pluged to this gate, the wings helps keeping it in place, which is good.

    Thanks swoosh.

    Woah... that's pretty bad... is it possible if you can get a closer image of the fractured area? (focused around the break)

    ***EDIT***

    Just checked my YF-19. Mine seems fine atm. Nothing but very very very very very very very light stress marks from I do not know where or how. Barely noticeable unless I hold the shoulder joint area about 4 inches away from my eyes and I have pretty much excellent vision (I don't wear glasses for any reason at all).
