Dang BBTS please ship mine! LOL Right!?!?! I couldn't wait any longer so I snagged one from AJ. Of course, they shipped it in a bag so the package was smashed.

Amazon JP shipping prices have both gone UP, and gotten worse with packaging. Maybe they're trying to cut shipping cost but the last 2 items I bought were shipped in a bag. One was a Metal Robot Spirits and the other was SOC FA CombattlerV. The MRS arrived okay but the SOC box got a smashed corner and a hole poked into it.

Great, just ordered A.N.I.M.E. GM from Amazon....
He was the last one from Amazon as a seller. I couldn’t resist.

I'm pretty lucky with Amazon.jp so far. But I normally order more than 1 so they are always in a box. Not a very strong box but at least it's a box. But I have amazon.com ship stuff to me in while plastic bags before too and that feeling really sucks.

Some one told me that if you buy from a seller on AJ that isn't Amazon, like a third party, they ship it in a bag. Whereas, when you buy from AJ as the seller it will come in a box. I'm not a "box collector" I just keep them for storage. A little wrinkling doesn't bother me, but full-on smooshed, then I get a little annoyed.

I’m in Canada, and have ordered from amazon JP (as the seller, and also as the company fulfilling for other sellers). I’ve never received a model/Chogokin, including last Legioss release, in anything other than a box. Usually the item is plastic-wrapped to a cardboard sheet, secured inside a cardboard box. Only time I have ever received an envelope/mailer is for a book/magazine.

Nice picture Kuma. I am still bummed mine arrived broken. It does seem to be on the fragile side. But that’s just my opinion.

Was just talking to a friend at length about it last night. It's really unfortunate. Mine came missing a vent cover but thankfully the vents are so deep that aesthetically it doesn't matter. Still reached out to Sentinel and Bluefin to see if i can get a replacement though.

Anyone in for the red one? Or are most out because it’s fiddly?

It’s by far the best Legioss out there. Still debating whether I need the red one though.
I didn’t think it was fiddly at all, but my expectations have been curbed by my experience with other Legioss releases: CMs was fun but didn’t stay together well in fighter mode. Toynami/Aoshima is a disintegrating mess. ET was, well ET despite massive improvement compared to their VF-2SS.
This sentinel one looks good in all three modes and pretty easy to transform. The only gripes I have are the hands not holding the gun well and the shoulder being too tight.

Please no more OVERLY tight shoulders, lets transfer some of that tightness to the ankles! I hope they put some metal pins in the wings, adjust the tolerances on the peg that goes in the gun. Tighten that bird up.

Second all of this. I got the original and am in for this one (but may call it quits after - TBD). Fingers crossed for some tweaks!! Anyone in for the red one? Or are most out because it’s fiddly?

Were any of you able to actually move the tight shoulder into different angles? I feel like mine will break if I even attempt it. Or did you guys just leave it alone and not risk it?

I left mine alone. I thought there was a fix? Never looked into it.

Yes, after bracing the metal portion of the joint and using some angry nerd fingers I was able to get both shoulders moving how I wanted them.

Just paid for my invoice for the red Legioss from Amiami. Hopefully I receive mine by the end of this week.
