Swoosh Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 (edited) More matte is a very good thing! So any in-hand experience of the need or lack of need for the brace/clip? Transformed once only, seems it can support its own weight without brace in all mode coz joints are still tight, this Valk is relatively lighter than 25 or 29.

Mommar Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Really? It's lighter? I wonder why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Did they actually print all those missile warning labels on the pod backwards, or did the picture get flipped around? Looking beautiful otherwise, that tampo is insane. All the more reason to stay in fighter mode forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xrentonx Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 That removable pod demands a weapons pack kit as a Tamashii web exclusive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking beautiful otherwise, that tampo is insane. All the more reason to stay in fighter mode forever. All labels printed upside down... or you may say all hatches are wrongly assembled..... However, if you look at them in fighter/GERWALK mode without deploying it, the direction is correct...

close313 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Nice pics! The amount of tiny tampo's done on this is phenomenal! And the details are just fantastic Oh no I realised that there's a paint chip on the valk's right shoulder! What caused that to happen?

ChaoticYeti Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 ...Gerwalk? Could you take pictures from the side of gerwalk, and battroid? One pic of each with the braces, and one pic each with out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro2k6 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I noticed that came with karate chop hands in FIghter mode. But Can be in fighter mode with the articulated hands?

funkymonkeyjavajunky Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I'm glad Bandai finally decided to tampo print the warning and no step markings. The stickers are a pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duymon Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Those are some nice pics Glad to see the 171 weapons work well on the 30. I have a bunch saved up since I have so many 171's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wm cheng Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Very nice! The other modes are looking better than I thought (I thought this was a fighter only mode for me too!) Thanks for the pictures. So are the shoulder chips from transformation/rubbing or did it just come like that from the factory? Sucks that the canopy is foggy, wonder if a coat of future will cure it?

Kanedas Bike Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Yeah, this is what I saw too. All before shipping. At CDJ, my order came to 20,000 shipped after applying funbux (gotta remember that one ), which is why I kept it. Nice! CDJ shipped mine last night as well, my total was right around $ 230 with Registered Airmail. thanks b Yup! Ah my discount code must have gone through. Hey, wait a sec, don't you owe me a discount code? CDJ are shipping the one I pre-ordered now, and I ordered another from CDJ. I had 2607 of said fun bucks, which brings the total to $207 shipped and I had an extra 47 bucks on my paypal balance I forgot about so I am going to count it as $160 lol. That's pretty awesome. Oh god it's happening heehee now i can stop watching this thread. ^^LOOOOOOLLLL Awesome pictures Swoosh, thanks for posting. I'm really looking forward to checking out the matte finish in person and I'm happy to hear that the joints are tight in all modes (at least right out of the box). -b.

Saburo Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Yup, those came with 171 EX Armored Pack. Thanks Swoosh. I may have to see about buying 171 armor packs now. Sorry, I know this has been asked before, will the Yamato/Arcadia missile fit onto the Bandai hardpoints? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaoticYeti Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 (edited) Now I am confused. What are the braces for? And great pics, Swoosh. Glad I decided to preorder. Edited August 8, 2014 by ChaoticYeti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
