>>7014237 Really? Got a pic of that? Sounds cool, also is the origin manga the one Tomino wrote where Armaro dies doa random Gelgoog beam and Char takes over, or was this the remake of the og series where they're starting with Char Aznable's rise to power.

Got my first Anime figure, the Gundam (with no Bazooka) for 24 bucks. I love the figure, but the shoulder joint is really stiff, and the beam sabers feel a bit too large.
Anonymous
>>7014265 You can work out the shoulder joint overtime, strange yours is lik ethat unless maybe you got the first touch one?
Nothing doing about the sabers, I thought they were fine personally.

>>7014301 No, this is a normal release version, the seller had it at 25 since he wasn't including the bazooka. Since it's used I'm really surprised they're that stiff.

>>7014240 The latter, the first thing you mentioned was Tomino's novelization (as in words not graphic novels) that came out a long time ago.

My dudes, does the Alex have a mid-knee swivel? It kind of looks like it does, and that's something Bandai has been doing recently (in fact, the Alex itself has mid-elbow swivels!). But they won't budge on mine, if they are indeed joints.

>>7014667 >>7014708 If that's not a swivel, then that's my only disappointment with the Alex. It doesn't seem to have a thigh/knee/calf swivel so I am limited from doing certain poses.

>>7014717 >>7014708 >>7014667 The 0080 ANIME releases don't seem as nice as the 0079 ones
Anonymous
>>7014996 I feel the opposite, honestly. The Alex kills the 0079 RX-78 engineering-wise, and the Zaku FZs are absolutely superb figures once you loosen up the hips.

Welp, lesson learned, I'm going to stop buying all white RD's. Living in the Caribbean fucks them up in less than a year. My Talgeese and Victory both are yellowed after 2 years.

>>7015905 From the sun? Just keep them out of the light. Or you can try Mr hobby super clear UV cut. Comes in gloss and flat. Though I'm not sure how safe it is for the bare plastic, it is made for models so I assume it'll be okay.

>>7015998 Not from the sun, the room they're in is well ventilated but has no sunlight, it's the heat and humidity.

I have like 24, so I don't want to rush into this with the wrong case.

Got my Titans MK-2 today. Overall looks great, I love the proportions and the paint on seems pretty sharp with minimal sloppiness. My big complaint though is the beam rifle has a giant seam line straight through the camera sight. It looks like the gun belongs to a shitty 90's no grade kit, not what is supposed to be a premium line.

>>7015350 wait, the bazooka on the Ball is a BEAM bazooka?

Just ordered pic related for around 110. I own a could RDs and am happy with them, but no other Hi-metals. How did I do? is it a good, fun fig? I've always wanted a decent transformable valk at non-assrape prices, and even if the scale is off, would probably look good displayed with my old G1 Jetfire.

Do check that the armor parts on your valk all fit properly once you get it in though, as some folks did get miss-assembled leg armor on their copies of the 1A Hikaru release. Happily, mine had no issues.
