I'm glad I didn't get that since I already get annoyed that I have to swap hands for the DX version.

Great pics! I had the Alto version of this toy and I have about the same feelings as you. I actually thought it was a good toy for what it was. The plastic is high quality, it looks good in it's various modes, it's very articulated. But ultimately in order to truly enjoy this thing one must have vast reserves of patience. After I spent the better part of an hour transforming it to Fighter (not difficult at all, just time consuming because of the number of parts) and back to Battroid mode, I looked at it, snapped a few pictures and knew right then and there that I would never, ever have the patience to transform it again. This thought made me sad, so I sold it.
I do hope Bandai or someone makes another 1/100 VF-25 that is either PT or has limited part swapping, because I really love the scale.

great pix......i never thought that this thing could transform? do u need to remove some parts to transform this?
i hope Bandai would release a transforming 1/100 MG kit for this series....would be cool to display them side by side with those MG Gundams having same scales ....

Mojacko, yes lots of parts need to be removed and replaced. Its more annoying then difficult but it does look pretty cool and I love the scale.
Also if bandai has already done a scale comparable to gundams. Thier 1/72 scales are around the same size. Apparently Macross scale is much smaller then gundam which is actually pretty obvious when you think about it lol
eriku, there will be nontransforming robot damashii in this scale. Alto is already out, hopefully I will get mine shortly and do a review.

Yeah, that Alto looks really nice but the lack of transformation is what will keep me from buying one. Are you going to pick up the Q-Rau? I plan to grab one of those after Xmas.

I like the batroid mode better then anything, and i really dont mess with my figures much after i initially get them so no need for tranformation.
Im not that interested in Rau so ill pass on that one.
