  1. Haha So while decaling I learned why the NUNS emblem is on that spot on the YF-25. It's because the shape of the 25's nose makes other insignias look awful when plastered across such an uneven surface. Only the SMS insignia looks good there. I looked through my old valks. The 25s and 29 (even the recent reissue) are metal. I can't determine if they are metal on the WWM 25 because of the paint. Anyone care to damage or destroy their WWM ankles for science? How did you make that determination?
  2. Fixed up the WWM VF-25 a bit. The matte finish out of the box looks great, and it does incorporate some of the improvements from the recently reissued YF-29, but the overall QC is pretty bad for a $200 toy. It easily has the worst QC of the 25 line. Still, it's a VF-25 and she's quite lovely to look out.
  3. Bandai also botched up masking and painting the stabilizers. Even some of the internal tabs don't fit that well, which may be why they decided to just glue the front fuselage shut, when it was unnecessary on all previous 25 releases. This valk feels more like a 3P KO than an official product. Or maybe it doesn't, after seeing the 31AX.
  4. Yep, no way shipping alone can account for the steep markup on the VF-0S when looking at the comparably-sized and weighted Ez-8.
  5. I'd be surprised if Nora wasn't pushed back and came out before the YF-19. But I won't complain if it comes out as currently scheduled.
  6. Wish Arcadia included the damaged guns on the PF version. Would've made the steep price tag easier to swallow.
  7. Is the 31AX supposed to be a two seater?
  8. The owner of that yellowed VF-1J must never have washed his hands after eating because that thing looks like it was basted over where it would be handled.
  9. Mentioned it a few weeks back. Mirage sees over the console just fine on mine!
  10. First Bandai valk?
  11. I'm really enjoying my completed HMR Skull squadron and destroids!
  12. Maybe the second half will be better than the first half, but I wouldn't bet on it. Of course I'm someone who thinks the last time something truly great came from Star Wars was 1980.
  13. Oh I'm sure it'll be readily available like all HMR toys after release date. They've almost always been shelf warmers to some degree.
  14. Yeah I always thought there would be a bunch of joints on the early version design so I was surprised that it had no moving parts. I always thought it did looking at pictures.
  15. Looks great except for those horrible seam gaps. Hope it's fixed on the final version.
  16. You just have to remove the 4 screws on the rear underside and the screw inside the landing gear bay. You'll have to rotate and twist the fuselage around in order to get an angle where you can reach and turn the screws with a small screwdriver. Once those 5 screws are out, the entire thing comes apart.
