    Anyone got one of the new 1/48 fully transformable figures and could share their view of the AFC-01 Legioss Armo-Fighter (VFA-6 Alpha Fighter) ? How's the quality and detail ?
    And if you happen to have a Toynami Masterpiece VFA-6 how would you compare those to eachother ?
    I'm asking because I'm so excited and can't wait to get my Aoshima AFC-01H (blue) in hands, and I've already got an Toynami Masterpiece VFA-6I and I'm wondering if they're in the same league.

    I hate to break it to you, but the Aoshima is basically just the Toynami ALpha in a new box with some very slight differences. Worst of all is that the majority of reports on it say that the QC is even worse than Toynami's.

    Many people thought Aoshima's was going to be a whole new toy but apparently they just made a deal with Toynami to use the MPC toy. As a result of the backlash, Aoshima has cancelled their plans to release the Beta. However, Toynami still plans to release the Beta.

    Yea I know Toynami isn't the greatest. I have a few of their masterpeices which i got cheap else i wouldn't buy them. Well I guess I just have to see what this one looks like... it's not that like I'll ever be able to afford a real transformable Gakken VFA-6H :(
