Rtype Just received btu unfortunately the smallest details were broken during transport.
It is not a big deal for such a low price, the details are impressive.
I was so happy to find this Rtype shuttle as it is a spaceship I liked so much during my childhood.

Excellent Product! But... This is a wonderful little gashapon of everyone's favorite shooter game ships! However, as is inherent with larger model-type kits, the ships may have a tendency to fall apart without any glue to hold them together. :3
As far as I know, this problem is most apparent with the Darius' Silver Hawk; once I set it down, the guns fell off! However, a little glue can keep them together although, ideally, gashapon need no glue.
These are very high-quality gashapon figures despite this minor issue. I have nothing to comment on the 0F-1 Daedalus, Metarion, or Vic Viper (!) because I ordered only three figures and those were, well, not in my order!
I rate 5 Stars because this "falling apart" issue is very minor, and probably wouldn't happen if the ships were handled with care. (Although R-type seems to be doing great no matter what...) It's all up to personal taste. I build models, so I found a need to glue.
