Congrats! It might be awhile. One of the booms arrived broken and I’m having fit issues. (The left leg and right arm won’t attach to the body). I think the broken boom is entirely FedEx’s fault but in regards to fit I think I was shipped a mismatched set. The boxes should be numbered like ‘38-1, 38-2,38-3’ but all my boxes have a different number set. I’ve already emailed them and am waiting on a reply. Sucks but it is what it is at the moment. I’ll upload more pictures tomorrow after work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grey728 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 (edited) @sqidd I took a bunch of pictures of my 1/1200 SDF-1. You can find them all here. Let me know if the link doesn't work. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/15yqUQqbHpNP4e6v121I3TjZRFq3IdBvq?usp=sharing Basically, the item arrived damaged with the right shoulder boom snapped in half during shipping which is unfortunate. On top of that the item was shipped in three separate boxes that should be a set. Unfortunately mine came from different sets and I couldn't properly put it together. The right leg and the left arm won't plug into the main body. Even if I didn't have a broken piece, this fit issue alone would have prevented me from enjoying the item fully as I can't assemble it. The AC plug that lights the item is in the right leg, but I couldn't plug it in enough to light up the rest of the statue. Anyways, from head to toe, the SDF-1 stands at about 25 inches to the top of the antenna and about 34 inches to the very top of the shoulder booms. The base adds 5 inches more in height for a total of 39 inches. I have placed picture in my Google Drive folder for anyone to take a look at that might be interested. I purchased this at BigBadToyStore and they have been gracious enough to accept a refund and pay for return shipping as they don't have any additional units to replace mine. That being said, I still really like this piece and I might just try again and buy direct from Kids Logic. I'm currently asking them what their return/replacement policy is in case I run into problems again.

Thank you for your post. Make sure your numbers are sequential. The smallest box is just the base and the electronics so it doesn't matter what group that came from. The bottom two should be 'XX-2' and 'XX-3'. If not you may have some fit issues like I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like DX series in 1/48 (too big, and I prefer them in 1/60), yet, this scale enables Super dimension combo! This Megahouse Orguss is roughtly in 1/48, right?

Mine have similar issues, even though the set is correct: XX-1 and XX-3. XX-2 is a different set, but it is the base. I could not fully connect the two arms and the right leg to the body. I could not test the audio, because I don't have the AC cable. It seems like Kids Logic is lacking QC department. So disappointed. For the price of the model, Kids Logic could do much better. I emailed BBTS. and waiting for response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what’s going on with your left leg though. It seems like it’s connected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I plugged in the cannons and they still did work. I think if they sanded down the joints a bit, they would work. The parts which light up, the joints fitted perfectly, I am very disappointed. I hope Sideshow would do something like this. The QC would be much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spanner Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Found a Yamato 1:48 VF-1A Angel Birds from Mandarake quite cheap purely for display in fighter mode. Looks to be in pretty clean condition with nothing broken and without any yellowing at all. Though the sticker sheet is missing.. might use a couple kite logos from the DX VF-1J but I won't have the Angel Birds signage for the legs unless I find a cheap Hasegawa 1:48 kit and use the decals from it? Handling this toy it feels so old school! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanedas Bike Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 (edited) So I was requested to throw some pictures in this thread (mostly of the DX Chogokin Max VF-1S) but since I had other new items on display, and/or not yet put away in storage I figured I'd do some group shots. Forgive the "blah" nature of the photos, making my toys look cool through pictures isn't really one of my strengths . Cheers! -b.
