VFTF1 Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Thanks. Well - that certainly is a minor alteration...but I guess it is easier to slide the leg hinges in and out after this? Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reïvaj Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 (edited) A lot easier, actually. But yeah, it’s not like the old system was awfully difficult… Edited May 27, 2012 by Reïvaj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Thanks. Well - that certainly is a minor alteration...but I guess it is easier to slide the leg hinges in and out after this? Pete In addition, it also holds much better when the Fast Packs are attached. The old Crotch system would tend to sag. The new one holds much better.

m0n5t3r Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 A lot easier, actually. But yeah, it’s not like the old system was awfully difficult… Easy enough to slide in, but a real pain to take out... And because it was difficult to take out, scratching the paint off of the metal hinge was more likely to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugimon Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 A lot easier, actually. But yeah, it’s not like the old system was awfully difficult… it wasn't awfully difficult, no. But it was needlessly difficult, which is worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyarque Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 and sagging Crotch...ewww...i hate it if it would happen to me...err...to my valks I mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m0n5t3r Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 oh, and one more thing, the neck looks so much better with the updated crotch... not too much collar showing (for those who bitch about the head placement of the v.2 VF-1s being grossly lineart inaccurate ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamadoma Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 In my case, the metal bar on my 1D did suffer some tiny scratches since closing the panel on mine was a bit too tight. And even if the metal bar has locked inside the nose, it still seems to "fight out" when posing, making the panel open a little bit. But it doesn't open the panel as much as my other two v.2 Valks which had the first type of crotch. The bad thing I noticed with the first crotch design was that the hinge just above the legs needs to be loosened a bit before going to Battroid. I didn't try to loosen mine a bit when I went to Battroid on my VF-1A Max, and I struggled a lot to get it out of the nose when going back to Gerwalk/Fighter. No matter how much I swung the legs, instead of the hinge popping out of the nose, the legs just simply rotated at the hip. It's really good that they reverted to the 1/48 style crotch where you can just pop the damn hinge in and out as you go. No more fancy leg swinging just to get it out of the nose.

OptionZero Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Do you think Yamato will release Super/Strike parts as a bundle with VF-1S/J/A or separately? I am contemplating getting in on the VF-1S with option parts but don't want to have to re-buy it just to get armor . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
