I read the review and it seems like the reviewer is content with the toy. He mentioned that the toy in battroid mode is able to do the salute pose from the end of Macross F. He compared the model kit and DX toy, and he mentioned how the DX costs much more than the toy. I am still trying to determine what he was referring to with the neck piece, but from what I gather, it sounds like it might be loose/not very secure, which explains why we see Ozma without an exposed neck a lot. The toy is weighty and locks together well otherwise.
The pics in the review are good, I wish the landing gear was more detailed, and the nosegear a little bit taller, also I wish the nose did not droop as much. To be honest out of the 3 VF-25 items(DX, VF100s, model kit), the VF100s version gets the landing gear right in my eyes. The gear on the DX are too short and not detailed enough(though I like the look of bare, shiny diecast, reminds me of 80's DX diecast robot toys!), and on the model kit, the gear are too long and remind me of mosquito legs. The VF100s? Just right!
Man the DX 25 is tempting....the
entire thing might even lack stickers....everything might be
PAINTED!
Less than a week after first out of box images showed up, and
still
no breakages! Sure some can say, "it's only been a few days", but I have not read anything that even mentions potential breakages(just read to take care when moving transforming the head as the head lasers are made of a softer plastic). If this toy ends up more durable than the 1/55, or very close to it, we are in for a treat!
