Anyone have GFF #0025 Xi, any pics?

Anyone who has this I would really like to know what you think of it because I can't tell from the product photos what all it consists of and how it all fits together. If you have pics, that would be awesome.

I'm impressed that Bandai made any attempt at all at making the Gundam Xi and Penelope from Hathaway's Flash. The Penelope is a rather complicated figure. What's a typical price for this GFF in USD? What are the major problems (defects/flaws) with this GFF? Thanks.

a typical price for this figure in the USA is probably about $50.00 to $60.00, the only problems i have are as follows.

the Xi Gundam mode the beam sabers do not stay on well

the Dragon mode is fragile and falls apart incredibly easily

i have tried the other modes as well. they are very good and seem sturdy. what is nice that even though they do not show it you can pose the Xi and dragon together, they always make it look like you cannot and always have the stripped down Odsyuss Gundam along side the Dragon. but you can keep it in the more awesome Xi configuration mode

I agree to zeomare. Xi/Penelope is very nice for display. Very nice detailing too but as a conversion, you will expect some falling parts. The sabers for Xi always pop-off from the shoulders. Just glue it if you want just the Xi conversion, and also if you have TWO GFF #0025. Get it! And if you have some spare cash, buy two for Xi and Penelope/Oddyseus configuration.
