ok, nevermind then about the elint not being able to be in normal valk mode. It can but it just has that post sticking out in the back. That's ok I guess. Now, my other gripe is the super O doesn't come with any arm armor? LePoseur's pix show the super O with no arm armor. Wonder why it doesn't come with any? Man, as more pix come in, more flaws are pointed out. I guess nothing can be perfect. I guess I'ma have to wait for a miracle like bandai reissuing their elint and super O!

Nope, it doesn't come with the arm armor. The old bandais came with them, but as far as the anime DYRL is concerned, there is no arm armor, Yamato is just being accurate to athe anime.

but having said that, it does feel kinda wierd to have no arm arm armor.

i notice something. if yamato can print the skull and macross logo on the fast pack boosters, why can't they print the eye symbol onto elint's boosters as well?

cut cost?

I was wondering about that as well..... so far all the other boosters have got the tou-gou-gun symbol tampo printed on... what makes this different?

Hi guys, sorry, typed a big thing about the tails being different from the regual VF1's but like an idiot hit the preview post and then back button and lost it.

Short version: Backpacks are different. Not only the stem, but the size of the vertical stabs and of course the degree (about 45) at which these packs are mounted. Any conversions will be work... not impossible, but work.

sorry about the pics, I never said I was a cameraman.

In a side note, while none of the above really bothers me, the fact that the stem the dish sits on is hinged at both ends kinda disapoints me. The dish rides up too high for me, and I wish I could lower it a bit, but with the system as it is now, it's really at the only height it can sit at without being tilted.

**Note** I was wrong about the bump in the folding section, is should go perpendicular to the body, it's just that with the bulge on the pack I didn't want to force it and end up cracking it. It takes a lot of presure though and makes a nasty crack when it pops into place. *scary*

Actually Leposeur,

the side antaenas dun fall off easily, you just have to make sure that they are pushed all the way in into the holes. Thats what i did for mine and it stays on very well.

I just can't stop lookin' at those pictures....... they are soooo beautiful........

Aaaahhhhhhh..................

*drools all over my lap.....*

Barrel rolls with the boosters is no problem at all. The main reason for this is you flip up the hook to hold the backpack in fighter mode as well.

Cool! Thanks!

Leposeur, Can the super valks do a barrel roll in fighter mode without the back pack and boosters being floopy?

I think you are toking abt the ones with the Hesegawa battroids, not the yamato ones. here's a pic to see if i'm correct.
