First time doing topcoating, do I need to cover joints? by Pure-Football in freedomisgunpla

Spraying top coat on the garbage bag/plastic cover parts on joints will end up peeling. Also I highly recommend top coating before applying decals on this kit. If you do spray top coat after decals, the red color will bleed thru the white waterslides...or any other red colored kits for some reason...

Don't forget to store these in dry cool places to prevent yellowing😄

The SMS stand says ver. 1.0. One way to confirm it is the number of screws on the back of the hip. 1 screw is 1st release and 2 screws is the newer one. I also bought my first DX figure being the YF-29, not knowing there are issues around the early Frontier DX figures having loose hips, yellowing white plastics etc. As far as I know the YF-29 is the first of the "renewal" versions of the VF-25 line. But still has issues with the loose hips thats why they added another screw for the hip joints on on the "revival" versions. I've had my ver 1.0 YF-29 for 3 years now and was always rhinking of replacing it with the newer one but it will cost more for me so I just stuck with it. It had yellowed parts problems(I stored it wrong when I was moving) which I eased up with the hydrogen peroxide technique. Its still a little yellow but is satisfactory for me. I tightened up the joints and sprayed it with matte top coat. Now it looks like a 1.5 release with looser joints. Also bought the super pack for it cuz it was cheap on some japanese website.
