There are alot of quirky little things with this release,definately not one of my favorite SOCs,as the excitement died down for me of initial ownership.I mean the Gattai is fabulous,but it lacks in final quality,too many tiny issues that need to be addressed as a whole on this release.I can name several off the top of my head.Im not talking about problems with the two Daiojas I own specifically,or problems specific to members toys like above,but with the toy in general,and then adding those specifics.....it adds up.Cant think of a release of late with all these little issues that could have been easily addressed.Such as things locking in place,or staying on!

Here is the maximum I can push the legs in... Sorry for the late reply, yes it is hard to get the legs back in place. But it should click in with a solid enough push. For some reason it is hard to lock the inner frame back in place (Sorry I forgot to mention this earlier everyone). Once you get the "feel" of the right amount of force it takes to pop the inner frame, repeated attempts will be relatively easier. Gold |

... But it should click in with a solid enough push... I will try it... maybe. The first thing who afraid me with this Aoider (the big blue one of the trio) was "sh*t, it reminds me Zambot Ace" ! No screw, only rivets. Nop way to open the shest, and my last big damage (except the GX-31 Voltes V which lost it's half body from my hand and encoutered the floor : I was standing and I am 73 Inches tall), was on the slide system for Zambot ace leg......... BROKEN ! So... I will try with my 2nd exemplary, just in case. Thank you GOLD for the (dangerous) tip. ^__^ |

It seems the thing that keeping the clip parts to go in deeper is the plastic that sticking out a bit from the inner two rivets. So the solution is maybe sand paper it a bit, or just not put the clip thingy on |

I have been impressed by mine as well. Had to hold off reading Gold's review until I messed with mine. Great review, Gold! Spot on on all the things I liked and didn't liked. Now to find time to read Chachi's review... |

Here's a little advice, never hold your Daioja upside down without holding the chest part. It WILL fall off and smash the head fins to bits. I speak from experience.  |

Chachi teh chest attachment on this guy is very odd,the shoulders I believe should move over about an 1/8 inch if teh chest is in correctly.And then make sure the armpits are in correctly.Its strange but this connection can easily go in a few different directions when assembling,I had to fiddle with these to see which is correct,Im sure you guys have noticed this.
Although I havent had mine upside down,if you ghold him right side up tug on teh chest upward to see if its really locked,it shouldnt come apart when held upside down this way.BUT its possible the weight could make it give,as possibly in Chachis case.Im sorry Chach,as I know you are as anal as I am about your robots.I know youve probably reordered,as a glued head piece would never do for us.
BTW was it all seen in slow motion??? ugghhh

well its not as bad as it sounds. You can see it on the next cdx show coming soon. It was caught on video. I cant stop staring at it. I guess its the obssessive side of me. |

BTW was it all seen in slow motion??? ugghhh Im trying to source a replacement but if that doesnt work out iwll most definitely get another. Yes I am anal about it...obsessive even as most collectors are. Im sure someone out there doesnt mind a bend mark on their figure and would provide a good home for it. Luckily it didnt break off completely. |
