Correct me if I'm wrong, but is there any type of crotch/butt peice to this armor? I ask this questions for many reasons:
-Without it, Ashiko (whatever) is unprotected in a very vunerable spot obviously. -Without the entire thing being connected and grounded, there is no way it's supporting it's own weight. What person is strong enough to carry that much weight on their upper body plus two other huge leg components??? If the thing isn't able to carry itself, it's totally (even more) unrealistic and a little on the stupid side. -Lastly, and probably most importantly, what figure can support that much weight?? Most modern Joes have problems standing own their own due to the flawed hip joints. I doubt this thing can stand own it's own without some kind if brace like the one pictured. And Ashiko's hip joints are gonna be looser than a 10cent milkshake within 10 mins of taking him out of the box. If this issue is addressed and my observation turns out right, it definitely makes it unlikely I buy this thing. Or use the lame "armor mode" anyway. And everyone knows how I like bi-pedal mechanical suits! So, please, owners of this toy; clarify.

Are there any improvements re: the armor staying on? When Gyre posted his review that seemed to be the biggest issue.

Nice and will get. But not as cool as the Mospeada (Robotech) cyclone armor.

Anyone that customizes this into an actual Robotech Cyclone will get purchased by me. Preferably red with Rook figure.
