VFTF1 Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Well I just want to get a head start and say the following: 1) That does not look anything like the line art! 2) That is so chunky! 3) That sucks! Look at the landing gear....or something... No but.. on a serious note: this is good news. Goods news because Frontier needs to have EVERYTHING: The valkyrie, the human characters, and the big ships. It will be really nice to pick this up Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Seriously, I mean just imagine how not flush the legs will be in fighter mode. ZOMG... Yamato would make this so much better! The size isn't quite as big as I'd like but who knows how it's being measured just yet. If it's WHAM SDF-1 size I'll be a little sad, hopefully it's bigger.

miriya Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I am so glad it is official now. Just earlier today I was thinking that I wanted a quarter to pose next to my vf-25. Sweet. 20cm is way too small though. I want it to be at least 40cm tall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chet Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Hope its on scale with WAVE's Macross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante74 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 If it's gonna be huge as many predict, it'll probably be expensive as hell and shipping will cost an arm and a leg. This thing could be full of die-cast which would make it heavy too. I hope they don't give it the glossy treatment. I want it to look like WAVE's movie version of the SDF-1, not the first version.

Yeah....at least until you discover that the pegs that hold the bedroom together are loose and break after you step in it and curse that Yamato could've done a better job.

OmegaD3k Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 While it's great that one is in the works, I rather wait and see. Don't want Bandai to turn our beloved Quarter into a clunker, too. Here's hoping Bandai does a snap-together model kit version of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anime52k8 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I hope it is really coming in 40cm height, however the offical poster just mention that will be 20+ cm??!! even that article say's it will be 20cm tall. the 400m part is in reference to the overall length of the quarter pounder IN THE SHOW. also, just so you you all know, at approx. 20cm, the quarter would be 1/2000 scale approx. now, if the battle Frontier is approx. 1500m long in carrier mode, or approx. 1200m tall in attacker mode (assuming it's of the same size as the Macross 7) then it would be about 60cm tall, or about 2 feet tall.

anime52k8 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I'm fine with that! I still doubt it's going to happen, but it would be pretty sweet. if a big Mac does happen, they'll either make it the same height as the quarter, or more likely about 30cm (1/4000 scale) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vifam7 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I'm fine with that! I still doubt it's going to happen, but it would be pretty sweet. Just to remind - the poster for the DX Quarter mentions that there is a reason why they chose 20cm for the height. That reason will be revealed in the future. It's a bit cryptic and it tells us they have something else up their sleeves. Perhaps they want to also make a Battle Frontier in the same scale? That would indeed be sweet wouldn't it?

Just to remind - the poster for the DX Quarter mentions that there is a reason why they chose 20cm for the height. That reason will be revealed in the future. It's a bit cryptic and it tells us they have something else up their sleeves. Something tells me that the toy has an additional mode for turning into a display stand for either the DX or VF100s.

Sumdumgai Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 They make the packaging for the Battle Frontier be Island 1. So you get a monster of a box with a much smaller toy inside it. The Japanese way! Overpacking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miriya Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 At 20cm in hight it better be less than $80. I am hoping more like $40. I would pay $120 if it was 40-50cm. Damn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salamander Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Well, if it's 20 cm tall in Battroid mode, then it could very well be close to 40 cm long in Carrier mode. You see, the arms are the front of the carrier and the body and legs the back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
