Hmmm...I didn't even read that it says "in stock"...even better I suppose...I have to check if there is any movement on shipping....maybe they made a mistake on its current availability?

Convectuoso Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 (edited) I'm definitely leaving the helmet on on this one. I'm no liking how it looks with the helmet on but the mask off. Edited December 2, 2023 by Convectuoso Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm no liking how it looks with the helmet on but the mask off. Now that KC have figured out how they want to present this figure, we still are waiting for the release. Are we supposed to undress the Dana figure to achieve each look. I don't know how good a black suit going over a white suit would stand up over time. Died or dark material has a bad habit of bleeding colour onto whatever surface it touches. Thanks for the share.

I would like a bigger DX type toy that includes everything in the box with no expensive add-ons . I suspect some of us might need oxygen if not just need to sit down to truly contemplate that one. Collecting those would probably would result in divorce for some, and involuntary commitment proceedings for others. I'm all in, of course.

Well you could always try and convince her it's both of yours hobby together while saying to her every time the collection gets bigger so does your heart for her .

When I finally get around to reviewing all these KC releases I'm going to have my work cut out for me on the 'version' side of things. I personally had not seen it before either....I looked and they snuck it into this listing...https://www.kitzconcept.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=59 I did not go through all their current VF-1 listings but the ones I did did not include it... As I said, the relocation of the leg tab was a major mold change from their first VF-1J/2.0 release...the fact that it is omitted from this slide says to me it was not an "improvement"...which is amusing after being told by KC that it was when I brought it up initially... They still look good to me in Battroid and Gerwalk....the KCs are actually the only VF toys I display in either of those 2 configurations...but I normally prefer fighter mode for any VF...so I guess I can thank KC for forcing me to diversify my display choices!

Zeliard Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 i can actually understand the criticism towards the quality of KC. The weight, the handling, is way below what Bandai or Arcadia can offer. But to compensate the deficiencies, the details in the valks are good.
