Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Anyone hoping Yamato switches to a more vibrant blue for the VF17D stripes instead of the light blue shown on the protom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptormesh Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 I kinda like the subdued blue to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lechuck Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Not sure if the poster pictures are old, but the head still looks very ugly. Frankenstein or bald Vader... though decisions... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IXTL Posted May 17, 2012 Author Share Posted May 17, 2012 Not sure if the poster pictures are old, but the head still looks very ugly. Frankenstein or bald Vader... though decisions... The head design in the poster is the same as the one which was hotly debated here some months back. I wonder if Yamato took note of the feedback Graham compiled and improved the sculpt on the final version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamadoma Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 (edited) I don't like the fast packs much. I wish they'd release the 17D without them too. Has there even been a 17D with fast packs in Mac7? Edited May 17, 2012 by kamadoma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamlin piloted a 17D with super pack in the last few episodes of the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamadoma Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Thanks for pointing out. Well at least now I find it reasonable for them to release it bundled. Still not liking the packs though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IXTL Posted May 17, 2012 Author Share Posted May 17, 2012 Nobody has commented on the WHITE stripes yet. They look white in most pics except the promo poster from Wonderfest in the opening post of this thread. I think the stripes are a very light blue that doesn't show up well in photos.

Mommar Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Interesting. Based on the box art there I think Fighter and Gerwalk look pretty good with the packs but Battroid is so chunky they almost look obscured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Weren't we told the Super Parts were coming in August/Sept? If they're now bundled with the 17D does that mean the 17D is also due around that time as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scream Man Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 I want one, but this is going to cost a fortune dammit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 You're right, these things are already pushing $300. With the packs that means they're likely $320 to $350 now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're now bundled with the 17D does that mean the 17D is also due around that time as well? The 17D and 17 Super Pack were announced as Fall releases at Wonderfest. Now they've ended up as a bundle, also with a Fall release planned. No news if there's also going to be a Super Pack stand alone for the 17S. Perhaps a web shop exclusive?

Loop Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 (edited) Personally I think the stripes should be slightly darker, but I guess I could deal with it if they don't revise the color. I actually like the fact that the packs are included, but when buying multiples the overall cost is going to be higher. Maybe they will release them as separates later kind of like how they do with some of the VF-1 releases and the old runs of the YF-19/YF-21. I am also getting the feeling they might release a super nightmare bundle. Edited May 17, 2012 by Loop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamadoma Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 I don't think it's really sure if the super parts are to be only released as a bundle. And they're unlikely to be exclusives. This is Yamato, not Bandai. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is Yamato, not Bandai. That's what Yamato did with the initial release of the VF-1 Armor Pack. Bundled mass release, exclusive stand alone Armor Pack (with missile launch effect parts). The stand alone Armor Pack was mass released sans effect parts much later. Edited May 17, 2012 by IXTL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErikElvis Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I wasn't sure how I felt about the super parts in fighter mode at first but now Im kinda liking them. Battroid is meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Like I said, fighter and gerwalk look good with the packs. Battroid, the leg part seems kinda smallish and doesn't really sit on the calf all that well. You can't even see the backpack portions.
