ChaoticYeti Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) Hey all. Long time lurker, first time posting. I recently picked up a Yamato VF-22s. Everything looks great, except an odd blemish on the battroid head. Is this common? (Sorry... Head Sculpt).

MacrossJunkie Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 It looks like the edge of the "jawline" is cracked. I don't think that's normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Yeah, I couldn't guess at how, but it appears that head was subjected to a lot of pressure that caused a split and some warping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie addict Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I can't possibly imagine how that could happen... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UN Spacy Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 The only S-type without four head lasers. FAIL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaoticYeti Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) This is fresh out of the package. Purchased new from amazon. I suppose with Yamato being non existent at this point a replacement part is out of the question. Bummer...

Loop Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I would at least talk to the seller about it. What is their policy on damaged goods? You may be able to find another Gamlin if they don't have another for exchange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaoticYeti Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 I sent the seller a note with the pic. Haven't heard back yet. Just a bummer. Fairly minor in the grand scheme of things, but would rather it weren't there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renato Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 The only S-type without four head lasers. FAIL. VF-0S doesn't have four, either... FAIL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArchieNov Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 The VF-19S has 5 doesn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Considering I don't care for the Battroid mode on the 21/22 I've never seen seen the faces on my Gamlin/Max 22's. For all I know I could have the same problem and not know it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaoticYeti Posted September 13, 2013 Author Share Posted September 13, 2013 The seller has contacted his supplier, which was Yamato's distributor. I am told they are looking for a replacement head for me. Admittedly, they probably don't just have one laying around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
