Moosey Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Good stuff Moosey! The biggest issue I had with my CF-171 was swapping the wings over and getting the little locking button pins to stay in tight enough. Had to glue them in on my sons Alto-171.. sh!t design that idea is.. Agreed! I thought the little pin had to come out also. Took me a while before I figured the small one is fixed. The right wing peg went in ok but the left one took about 15 minutes to get right! Nice work, Moosey! See, you can get lucky with a CF 171. Thanks mickyg. I was really tempted to transform it to battroid just to see it like that once but had to stick to the script. Thanks to Jungle for sending me a good one!

505thAirborne Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 One that not too many folks will be familiar with.. Dica Model?? / Marsan?? / Arcadia?? (can't tell who makes it) Gordian!! I threw a random best offer on the italian exclusive on ebay and to my surprise the seller accepted and i was forced to buy it love the fact that this set includes parts too assemble either version of Gordian My friend across the street when we were kids (early 80's) had this toy, we used to play with it all the time, Awesome score, enjoy it!!!

ChaoticYeti Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) Thanks! It was a fun set to build. Lots of interesting techniques make this thing really solid, and the silhouette of it is perfect.

anime52k8 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Cool! Maybe you can do those on our Valks. I wouldn't trust wall mounting anything that can't be snapped back together after it falls to the ground and shatters into a million pieces.

True. Oh well. But would it be nice to mount it everything on the wall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have any worry about this falling off the wall. It's in a spot it won't get bumped into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Arms Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Damn that's awesome Yeti! Thank the Maker I never got into Legos! I've been contemplating my next impulse buy.

Lolicon Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Thanks guys! Might sell off my destroids though, what with the HMR destroids on the way. If I do, I'll probably keep the olive drab weathered version. That thing looks pimp! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll bet it was cheap being incomplete!? not that they are hugely expensive to begin with anyways.. and I was going to say what about the dust problem not having the door but these things are pretty useless in that respect even with the door..
