Jin_Kune_Do Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 If Yamato is gonna do anything special for the ani...i think that the "2500th" would be a great choice. They dont have to make a new mold of anykind, only a simple repainting. I personally think this is better choice then the latter... - Jin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mister_e Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 As a Macross toy fan, I fail to see how this is good news. How is releasing nothing at all better than releasing something? If you didn't like the scheme, you didn't have to buy it. I thought it wasn't too bad. I would have bought it were it an official release. Now I get what? Nothing As of this moment, we don't know if Yamato will be releasing anything at all for the 25th anniversary. Graham hasn't even hinted at anything (unless I completely missed it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macross73 Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 (edited) just cause its official doesn't make it good. heck they could have made these and whos going to buy them.

Nothing As a Macross toy fan I'd rather have nothing than that "Spilit of Valkylieminogue" But you would buy a polished turd with "25th anniversary" on it, as long as it's official?

Jasonc Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Man, I must say, it is pretty Fugly. If I was that Valkyrie pilot in charge of that POS, I'd ask for a transfer. The paint scheme makes it look snub nosed, and much thinner than it is. That paint scheme has a really bad illusion of size and design that makes it look like a knock-off. The YF-19 looks "OK", but just that. Nothing to wow over. I'm not getting these unless I see a 19 on sale for $70 or less... maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kensei Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 that i would buy, these on the otherhand...well you know. Kinda like those crystal versions of the MGs and HGs that Bandai pans out with their Gundam kits. Wouldn't be such a bad idea with 1/48s.

Sumdumgai Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Ouch, brings back memories of my crushed Q-rau. I don't hate those two 2007 valks that badly to want them destroyed... I just really really don't like them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kensei Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Or the gold or silver plated VF-17 by Bandai. I don't know if it was ugly due to the primitiveness of the toy or the actual fact that it looked like something Mr T would wear on his neck.
