David Hingtgen Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Personally, I want to see a darker YF-21. They've all been too light, but the new one looks the lightest. Give me Blue Angels blue or thereabouts, or maybe even slightly darker than that. It needs to be DARK blue, not a dark version of Max blue.

Lonely Soldier Boy Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 I want an all black 21 with white or light gray stripes. Can't wait for the repaints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me Blue Angels blue or thereabouts, or maybe even slightly darker than that. It needs to be DARK blue, not a dark version of Max blue. True about the "Blue Angel" Blue but, Japanese collectors items have a very bad habit of being too light/wrong shade when it comes to red, blue, or purple. The companies tend to release them a shade or two brighter than any art of the subject ever was. For example the "Cartoon Colors" Galvatron released a few years ago. I like it's colors better than the original (Yes I know about the UK Comic.... ) but it certainly is rather lavender looking compared to the movie and cartoon art.

Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Wow, so did the previous QC guy really suck? Hope he didn't get a job with Boeing or somebody... Naw he must've gotten a job with Aoshima, and his first project was probably the Legioss.... I'm glad someone new is onboard. I have a feeling less people will start waiting for the 2nd run releases from yamato from hereon out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diddo on that note. I am pretty sure that you are right. After this guy comes out, if it does'nt have a ton (hopefully none) of issues alot more people will be more likely to buy the first wave.

SuperHobo Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Good to know there is a new hotshot QC guy on board looking over the production. Considering how well the guy supervised over the Nora release I have more confidence in Yamato's first releases. However there is still that chance of getting a lemon, but hey its just time now to play the waiting game. By the way lets have a look see at the guy who makes the box art. Could we have his name, address and phone number please by buddies would like to have a word with him. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 (edited) True about the "Blue Angel" Blue but, Japanese collectors items have a very bad habit of being too light/wrong shade when it comes to red, blue, or purple. The companies tend to release them a shade or two brighter than any art of the subject ever was. I just hope it is close to the anime. Maybe they are told to make it bright for other reasons like getting attention? (like how the original gundam was supposed to be white but they went with other bright colours to make it more appealing as a toy) If they make a non-canon dark yf-21 I hope it is as close to the gamlin vf-22 as possible. Oh yeah BTW graham: will they eventually release a VF-22 after yf-21? Would seem a waste to not do this. This is why I think bandai having the license for macross shows isn't always a good thing because they might choose to not do anything. It wastes potential.

Vermillion21 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 One thing of interest I found out is that since the Nora SV-51, Yamato have had a new QC guy on board. I think you will all agree that the QC on the Nora was excellent and a big improvement over the Ivanov. This bodes well for the YF-21. Awesome news Graham! Thanks for letting us know, now I feel more confident about pre-ordering the YF-21. I've got a good feeling about this one. After all, the new QC guy is BoB...

Sumdumgai Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 You've got an instant buy here if Yamato releases a VF-22, preferably in a dark scheme. I really wish that yamato would include an alternate faceplate, canopy, and belly plates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 The goth chics go for the pilots of dark valkyries like vf-17 nightmare, credit card vf-1, and batman's VF-22.

I figure if we make it to 100 pages......then we'll here some sort of noise...almost like when Mario turns into Fire Super Mario and then *ZAP POW WHAMMY* we'll all get emails telling us that our orders are filled and on the way.
