  1. ^ Love the VF-25. Would really like to see an updated version on the level of recent releases.
  2. ガンダム、行きます!
  3. Yes, I would like to know if the issue is widespread or just a few unfortunate units got the shaft.
  4. HLJ asked for pics of the feet and they'll contact Arcadia regarding this problem. If it can't be replaced with a good copy, I'll take a store credit since I have a bunch of other stuff on preorder anyway.
  5. That pose pretty much sums up Arad's entire role in the series.
  6. This kind of QC problem would be unacceptable in a cheaper product. If HLJ offers me a refund instead of a replacement, I'm taking it. One of my DX VF-1Js didn't even come with a right hand, so please don't bring Bandai into this as an example of how to do anything right.

    Global just looks really depressed at being in this lineup. Also, it looks like he let himself go a bit...
  8. Been super busy with work so I hadn't had time to transform it or really get into the SV-51, but after you posted that I immediately went to check mine and it does indeed have that problem. I've emailed HLJ to see if there is a way to get an exchange. That's something I cannot fix.
  9. The ire should be directed towards Bandai for producing so few units and making everyone beg like a circus seal to get one.
  10. Sweet! I was hoping Bandai would release a green grunt version.
  11. Used a mechanical pencil.
  12. No, the stand adapter it comes with works fine with the current Zero adapter you have. The SV-51 stand adapter is clear and smaller, so it's not quite as obnoxious as the VF-0 stand adapter. Still, I wouldn't mind seeing a superior Yeti adapter that fits entirely underneath the fuselage.
  13. Arcadia VF-0S is not pink. Not even a little bit. It's white: It came out looking kinda beige in my previous pic with the SV-51. Color balancing is a fickle mistress.
  14. Use a toothpick and push them out from under the wing.
  15. The default adapter is blocky and doesn't attach at the center of gravity. I've always preferred Yeti's adapters.
  16. Compatible with the old Yamato simple stand and I'm assuming it'll work with the newer Arcadia stand.
  17. They're the same very fine panel lines Yamato & Arcadia have been using since 2008. Some people don't like them because it can be difficult to panel wash, but I love them.
  18. Just got home and had a chance to open her up and fiddle a bit. Nice and sturdy and huge! Love it so far. Someone page @ChaoticYeti because we need a new adapter, stat!
  19. She's here! Also got something from that other franchise that I hear is also popular.
  20. Just arrived!

    What do you mean all in the same location? Tokyo has 4 stores in different parts of the city, if that's what you're asking. Osaka has two. The others are spread pretty far apart.

    God I love Mandarake. Been to nearly every location in Japan. It's thanks to them I was able to complete my backlog of missed Yamato valkyries at reasonable prices. I've also spent more money there than any other hobby shop I think. Highly recommend visiting in person if you're ever in Japan. Aside from being a toy collecting nerd's heaven (though they carry way more than just toys), not everything they have for sale is listed on their website.

    That body is pretty off-putting as well.
  24. Was hoping to get it today, then remembered the date.
