one of the earliest MACROSS toys i ever owned, the infamous YAMATO 1/72 VF-11B. i too suffered the breakage issue not long after purchasing from the long defunct JUST BE TOYS of PORTLAND OR. in 2001 for like $85. the shop accepted one exchange, and, after the second copy broke, i just put the blasted thing into storage, where it remained for years. just recently i made a move, downsized some, and came across the old thing again, and decided to attempt a repair job. it worked pretty well, and while i was at it, i tightened up all the joints and reversed all ratchet assemblies throughout so they would no longer detent, and instead provide a tight but smooth friction, allowing the toy to line up and fall right into properly aligned place in all modes;

Oooh! Joke Machine! Now that brings back childhood memories for me. Had one as a kid. Mine had the super parts though. Nice Mojacko!

got this for about $65 shipped, for parts for my first HCM VF-1J i had paid $150 for some years ago; turned out, that this one, despite broken head lasers, was in far better shape overall, all but mint, in fact, including nice, tight sparingly-used joints throughout. my first HCM's intact head unit was moved over to the newer body, and i took the opportunity to do a new detailing job with fresh TAMIYA COLOR, a set of ultra fine paintbrushes i recently got hold of, and some spare VF-1 decals i had tucked away; Lastly, i threw together an effective gunpod strap for my BANDAI 2001 1/55 reissue;
