    I just noticed this, intentional or coincidence that VLeo's profile and Godginrai look the same with both having wings. As the anime presented them being the same 'bot but the manga was somewhat fuzzy because of the presence of Jan's sister.

    Already ordered a set. My chrome is fine but I bet it is not gonna last. I am waiting for the next set for Leo's stickers too but I don't know if my stickers are good or I was good at applying them since they look ok on my copy but I agree they are not the best quality.

    :confused:  Do tough as nails plastics have to be unpaintable? Or, at least Hb should have used a flexible labels that hugs the contour such as that part of the wings :mad:  better! To toyhax's credit, they have a certain type of label, iirc, G1 Blurr unless they also changed the material that really hug/sticks to the figure like crazy glue!

    Won't the Toyhax gold labels run the same risk of getting nicked/scratched when put into V-Star jet mode?

    Haven't had any issues with the chrome so far and I've gone to V-Star mode several times. Just be gentle when doing the combination.

    Same with the issues with battle mask and does shoulder blasters. Supposedly someone broke the latter and the former broke off for no reason. I hate to be the one to own a broken irreplaceable figure that is hard to repair.

    Perils of the trade.:(

    Not really my cup of tea and maybe this has been posted already but here’s a 3D printed upgrade kit for Victory Leo. Tail/sword, leg gap fillers, and a shield. I’m still holding out hope for a nosecone/shield and tail kit that’s injection molded (looking at you DNA Designs since you made 3 different kits for ER Scorponok).

    Thanks for sharing. Not sure if I’ll keep this kit attached, but it’s interesting enough engineering that I’ll bite as an additional feature for now.
