Man, this toy simply oozes quality all over. Upon opening the styro box, I was rather surprised they used cloth instead of plastic film to protect the toy! one for the back and one for the front. It's a really nice touch, I must say.

As for the toy itself, it's AWESOME. I haven't really played with it much yet. Just took out the main unit for inspection. It's sitting at the corner of my workdesk as I'm typing this. Yes, I'm stealing glances at it every 10 seconds. The quality is very different from the other Yamato toys I've owned. Almost as if they've outsourced this the way Toynami did with the MPC Ride Armor. And I've owned quite a few Yamato toys... starting with their first fully transformable diecast YF-19. The QC and plastic quality is actually very Bandai/CM's(their earlier Brave Gokins I mean) if you ask me. Even the material they used is different. Glossy hard plastic all over. And I like the leather better than the cloth-like material CM's used for their Brave Gokin Ingram. No tears as far as I can see, unlike an unlucky soul at ToysDaily that had a tiny rip at the back of the neck.

It's pretty heavy - nice solid feel. This is a pleasant surprise considering the box was a bit light.

I haven't played with the gimmicks yet. Probably exactly the same as the first AV98 so you can check out the older photo reviews to find out. Not very 'convenient' to play with it extensively with many managers and colleagues around me. Maybe I'll go home late so I can fiddle with him more since I can't bring him home anyway (my store room's filled up literally from the flooor to the ceiling). Will attach pics soon I hope, but I'm sure somebody else will post them.

Highly recommended!]]> Anonymous User Original Invincible BBS Tue, 02 Mar 2010 00:32:50 -0500 http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,199138#msg-199138 Re: Yamato 1/24 Ingram (Patlabor) http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,199138#msg-199138 > I've always pronounced it "Pat-lah-bor".

I feel like being pedantic. Why does he call it Pat-LAW-bohr? It's spelled Patoreibaa in katakana. The correct rendering is Pat-LAY-ber, which corresponds to the two words that its a contraction of: patrol and labor. If he wants to be faithful to the Japanese name why doesn't he call it Pot-oh-lay-bah?]]> Scopedog Original Invincible BBS Sun, 19 Jul 2009 16:12:30 -0400 http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,199074#msg-199074 Re: Yamato 1/24 Ingram (Patlabor) http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,199074#msg-199074 www.youtube.com]

It is, I got mine from BBTS, and I've seen it at a few other stores here in SoCal. It's $250, which is a bargain compared to importing is. It's the only reason I bought one, since otherwise it would be over $300 going through importers.

After importing two Mugen Caliburs, getting something locally for less is welcome.]]> Chirico Cuvie Original Invincible BBS Wed, 15 Jul 2009 13:05:20 -0400 http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,198854#msg-198854 Re: Yamato 1/24 Ingram (Patlabor) http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,198854#msg-198854 hillsy Original Invincible BBS Wed, 15 Jul 2009 12:38:17 -0400 http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,198836#msg-198836 Re: Yamato 1/24 Ingram (Patlabor) http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,198836#msg-198836 drifand Original Invincible BBS Tue, 14 Jul 2009 22:06:15 -0400 http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,198835#msg-198835 Re: Yamato 1/24 Ingram (Patlabor) http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,198835#msg-198835 Gcrush Original Invincible BBS Tue, 14 Jul 2009 20:49:58 -0400 http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,198829#msg-198829 Re: Yamato 1/24 Ingram (Patlabor) http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,198829#msg-198829 -------------------------------------------------------

This statement caused difficulty. Many hours of tense disagreement and several visits to the OED that we keep in our sacred Moon Hall resulted. I was at last able to convince our elders that the meaning of these words did not necessitate an intractable religious war between your tribe and mine.

It would help to cement my beneficial interpretation in the minds of our yet-wary elders if, in the future, you would often comment on the colonic health of giant riding fowl.

The CLAT colored Ingram was a bit unexpected, although I guess I should have assumed it was coming being how re-color happy Yamato is. I would have assumed we would see a unit 2 or 3 before a clat version at least. I would think either of those would be much bigger sellers than this anyways.]]> Anonymous User Original Invincible BBS Tue, 14 Jul 2009 17:59:16 -0400 http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,198822#msg-198822 Re: Yamato 1/24 Ingram (Patlabor) http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,198822#msg-198822 > NYPD CLAT Ingram

HOLY CRAP.
mind = blown
Why couldn't CM's do this?? It would fit so much better into their lineup of oddball labors, like the police Taisyos, and OVA Unit 2, and the new AVS-98s...
It does look awfully pretty with its candy-gloss blue, and I'd certainly like to get a Yamato Ingram eventually, but I really like my CM's Ingram, too, and I can actually imagine buying a CLAT version from them... I just can't see myself spending the price of the Yamato on such an obscure repaint without any other machines to keep it company.]]> asterphage Original Invincible BBS Tue, 14 Jul 2009 17:56:08 -0400 http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,198821#msg-198821 Re: Yamato 1/24 Ingram (Patlabor) http://toyboxdx.com/phorum/read.php?1,194138,198821#msg-198821
