This issue is definitely much interesting compared to issue 32. Here we have a lot of Macross mechs packed in this issue like Macross Quarter, Destroid Defender & VF-5000G, VF-27 (green) been featured. I can't wait for the toy of Macross Quarter and VF-27 Lucifer to be released. This issue has an awesome drawing of dogfight between VF-0S & SV-51. As for the toy review, it had 1/60 YF-19 and its variants. I only have the original 1/60 YF-19.

Marvel: Mighty Thor

Removable accessories
Just like I mentioned on my previous Marvel posting, I have brought the Mighty Thor to you. Here we have Thor in 4", 7" & Mighty Muggs. These toys belong to Mr Erik and I must thank him again for allowing me to blog on them. The right hand to the 7" Thor had broken when I received it cos it had skydive from the work desk previously. However, I had managed to stick it back with gun glue.
The 4" Hasbro Thor has more point of articulation and resemble more to the comic version. The 7" in new chain-mail costume design, has more detail, more muscular and look like statue. As for Mighty Muggs Thor, just one word 'adorable'.

1/60 Chogokin DX VF-25S Ozma

Don’t you think the goat skull printed on the back of VF-25S impressive?

The antennas on the head are pretty soft, hence will be break easily
This is my second attempt on taking pics of 1/60 Chogokin DX VF-25S Ozma since there were a lot of error on the transformation previously. I hope there would be less mistakes on the transformation and hope to see a better pics taken this time round.
The design of the box is very simple with only pics of the toy printed. I would prefer the box having some anime artwork or having Ozma shown on the box. It is a good thing that the box didn’t come with plastic window so you don’t need to worry about UV lights getting into the box.
The packaging is very neat and the space inside the box is well utilised. Bandai definitely did a better job than Yamato by keeping the big toy inside a relatively small & slim box. The insert for the toy is made of non-biodegradable Styrofoam which is not very friendly to the environment. But I seriously think that it is much better than using cheap quality plastic tray that turned yellow before the toy does. If only the reissued 1/55 valkyries come with Styrofoam insert.
Personally, I think that VF-25 design is a blend of YF-19 and SV-51 whereby the valkyrie looks really awesome in fighter mode. From the front view of the VF-25, I noticed that the wings are slightly curled upwards.
Just like the 1/55 scale valkyries, VF-25 has solid metal landing gears and metal die-cast lower legs. There is no need for any stickers’ application since the decals were already imprinted on the toy. Don’t you think the goat skull printed on the back of VF-25S impressive?
There is certain difficulties transforming the toy to battroid mode and the Japanese instructions manual ain’t very helpful. I very much refer to the pics on the instructions manual and ‘agaration’ (guessing). Well, you will feel good quality plastic during the transforming process.
