The Minipla uses pegs, not clips, anyway.

And pegs are usually superior connectors, as was used so effectively in Magiking (in my opinion).
When I saw the 5-6 or so clips connecting Plezuon's head to its body I felt my heart skip a beat. ![]()

As awesome as it looks on screen, I think it's the Battery Connection Feature that's doing this Mech in. Without they could've used pegs.

Just get rid of clips, Bandai, or supplement them with some support. In Magiking, the Red Phoenix connects to the main body by way of two pegs and one clip. THAT's support.

Hmm, but it's not the arms that's causing problems (so far). It's the backpack for Gabutyra, which doesn't use the battery feature, and thus doesn't require clips.

Well, the only way I could think of it having issues is with the clips on the back of its thighs for that skirt piece from Ground Gosei Great, but that isn't nearly heavy enough to cause problems. The connections might wear out over time, but it does seem like a sturdy figure.

Actually the most common problem with Gabutyra and Pteraidenoh is the arm clips not being able to support the weight of the arms and thus losing their grip after a period of time.

Wouldn;t taking out the Beast Batteries lessen the weight of the arms and help them last?
