I didn't expect much about the quality because I heard it was recalled, but I bought it because it was sold at a great price on Amazon, and I was very satisfied.
I don’t live in Japan, so it’s not possible to return the item, the Ez8 is a highly anticipated unit amounts all Team 08 MS, but Bandai screwed it up big time, Member Sleep Walker was assigned to the QC (if there’s any at all) Left and right legs are supposed to have different parts allowing optimum ankle movements, but due to both legs mistakenly fitted with same parts, the ankle and shin (of one leg) has very limited movement when you try to pose it Shameful to Bandai to screw up in such a popular unit for the series May be a return to “Made in Japan” is the way forward These figures are not cheap, but made with labors who are paid cheaply elsewhere, and the consumers are putting up with it, this recall and failure should serve as Bandai’s Wake Up Call !! Stop making them cheap !! Robot Spirit needs some Heart and Spirit put into them Many of us are spending 10x more money than assembly models already, as life is too busy, so please stop screwing up with cheap labor who don’t care !!!!!! I wrote as if Bandai could hear us but I’m likely speaking to deaf ears or a heartless enterprise
