I myself prefer the shoulder plate sections to be either more flat or even slightly forward facing as pictured above in Saburo's photo.. but hey to each their own..

like this! :D

*snip*

The YF-25 looks pretty sick with the blue Super Parts. I think I need to get one because I have a spare set of VF-25G Super Parts after I got the Tornado Parts. I wonder if I could deal with the wrong call sign on the parts. ^_^

I also display my Messiahs with the shoulder pads up because I think the look too lithe otherwise.

I gave it another shot and success. The pictures helped and I paid more attention to how the cockpit sat in the neck piece. Much better results.

Good to see that everything is locked in place. Yeah, somehow I want to display my VF-25F/S with the shoulder armor aligned to the neck but it's kinda felt like it's wobbly and not solid. I guess, to each his own. ;)

Good eye on the the arms. I managed to over look that as well. Going through the instruction manual again, Bandai was very thorough and did a good job. It's that reading comprehension that's not so good and the kid in me rushing things. I don't need instructions to tell me how to play with a toy! B))

hehe! yeah i only discovered that the arms extend by accident and had been displaying them un-extended for a little while. Although some are quite tight to pull out.. :wacko: I never bothered to read the manuals much.. that has since changed! :D

What?! It came with manual? :blink: All the while I'm just basing my transformation method via Jenius reviews, CollectionDX, or any YouTubers out there. :lol:

I think so.. you know I don't actually know!? might have to check the box when I get home! But now in general I do have a quick scan of the manual when ever something new comes along. And yes thank god for Jenius reviews and transformation guides! A true life saver! :)

P.S. nice sig mate! :p

Yeah the YF-25 tends to look a little too boring without the super parts on in my opinion.. The 25G parts are a perfect color match too! It really helps set it off!

And the 25G super parts are still quite cheap to get!

I don't even notice the wrong number anymore.. seeing how good the thing looks it really never bothered me in the first place!

Nice Merc Moosey! :) Is that a C63!?

*edit* ahh yes it is.. sorry couldn't zoom in the pic on the phone. Nice bit of kit!

Thanks Spanner, yeah it's a C63. I've been wanting one since the car was launched, but was only finally able to afford it recently.

It's so freaking awesome. Every time I start it, I grin a big cheesy grin.

I bought this for $95 off Amazon when I saw the news that Warner Bros. cancelled licenses for the General Lee products showing the Confederate Flag. It just arrived today and they are now going for $400 on Amazon. I'm thinking of selling it soon for a profit or keeping it to gain value in my collection.

Yeah, bought a whole bunch for the different armor sets. :)

This is the first destroid I've purchased. I know it's from the VF-1 era, which is why it feels so small after years of getting larger valkyries. It still looks great though!

My monsterarts loot has finally arrived!

Why is normal King Ghidorah pictured when your box says Mecha King Ghidorah? I sold my normal Ghidorah off a while ago, I was horribly upset with how many QC issues it had, especially for what I paid. I see Mecha King G is still readily available, if he's a solid piece I will probably grab one while he's still available, since I have a literally Ghidorah sized hole in my MonsterArts collection that needs filled.

I got King Ghidorah and Mecha King Ghidorahs. I just haven't taken them out of their boxes.

Yamato destroids are really well sculptured and look great! Wished they had proceeded with the phalanx. Congrats on your purchases!
