Renato Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 (edited) Toppled over in Battroid mode while I was out and the main wing hinge (the one connected to the backplate) is split. Still attached and moves, though, so nothing is impeded, which is good. So far. Seriously, though, this toy is becoming a floppy mess like my other DX, the Michel. If the limbs were stiff enough to hold a pose this would look really cool but it's just ectoplasm now. Come to think of it, I'm sure it wouldn't have fallen over if the joints weren't so loose.

That sucks. Are they just basic friction joints? No ratchets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renato Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 (edited) Yeah, they're die-cast friction ball joints. Edited January 25, 2011 by Renato Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uxi Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 which is why they get so loose. Afraid to touch my Brera as it's a PITA to get it posed with the gunpod again. Ratchets at least for shoulder and elbow, plz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ratchets at least for shoulder and elbow, plz. it's not just the plastic on metal joints though, the plastic on plastic joints go all loose as well.

Uxi Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I was JUST reading your comments from December in the generic DX thread. Hadn't been paying attn to that thread. I just want a valk to have joints like my Hasbro MP Prime. Is that too much to ask? It's a shame, cause I really like Brera, even if I'm VERY careful when transforming to avoid paint scratching... but yeah, it's holding a pose with the gunpod... so probably not going to touch it again for a long while.
