1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 (edited) Best GERWALK is probably the Variable Glaug. It's not technically a valk but it is close to a valk. It has big powerful bunny/kangaroo legs. It looks stable (not dangerous to be standing up in that mode), aggressive, and the weapons all seem to make sense with the big cannon thing right at the top similar to monster. As for transformers with GERWALK. megatron war for cybertron: you can do a "super dimension cavalry southern cross" style GERWALK mode for this guy. What is interesting when you do one, is how practical it seems for hitting targets at angles higher than you get with hovertank mode. If you are right near a tower and want to shoot right at the top? Go into GERWALK mode and point the cannon vertically towards the sky. The thing about the feet is they are similar to a konig monster in that they are wide and flat so it won't lose balance or topple over easily. Another transformer with GERWALK is generations lugnut: I know what you are saying: Isn't he already a triple changer? yes he is suppose to be but he isn't officially one for this particular toy line unless you discover the GERWALK mode yourself. He was only designed to be seen in bot and vehicle form for this toy line despite the character trditionally being triple changing.

JB0 Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Yes you're right about them, but my question was more about toys that are not supposed to have a gerwalk mode, like Transformers for example. Maybe I wasn't clear enough... I'll edit my post accordingly. G1 Jetfire. ... What? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojacko Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 love the Gerwalk on the VF valks as well....as this is the only mode that distinguishes a Macross from a Transformers...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanedas Bike Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 love the Gerwalk on the VF valks as well....as this is the only mode that distinguishes a Macross from a Transformers...... Disagree with that last part as you have plenty of Transformers that are supposed to have 3 distinct modes, but it's not really an apples to apples comparison. I think it's the PURPOSE of Gerwalk that differentiates Macross Valkyries from other transformable mecha/robots. -b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sreichma Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I never cared for the VF-25S head sculpt, the face was too bug-like imo. The VF-25F was my favorite; very evocative of the old VF-1J (which I prefer over the VF-1S head) Also, I prefer the Pure white with black and red to the grey, black and yellow. I never liked the rwo lined on the jaw area that make it look like its smiling at you like an evil joker. I love the 25-s but i think it eould look a lot cooler without those lines. I never liked the two lines on the jaw area that make it look like its smiling at you like an evil joker. I love the 25-s but i think it would look a lot cooler without those lines....

Zinjo Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 (edited) I would be inclined to say the GERWALK is the most "Underapreciated" mode of any valk. Frontier did a great job of highlighting the versatility of the mode since the 80's. The Armored VF-25 was the first time we saw a GERWALK with applied armor. There was an armored GERWALK concept done for SDFM but it never was animated (sadly). Edited June 11, 2014 by Zinjo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyankodevice Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 I love The gerwalk!!! Especially when The creators pull it of nicely, There are some mechas that doesn't pull it of so well though... When the nose is way to long is one example... The best gerwalks IMO is VF-1 and VF-25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendel163 Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I prefer Gerwalk mode arms out out of the three. My yammie V.2 1/60 VF-1J has been in Gerwalk for almost 2 years and I never get tired of displaying and flying it around like that. After getting and messing around with the Yf-30,I find I like it most In Gerwalk. Probably because of the new waist joint, that gives it a ton of new posability options.

no3Ljm Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Valkyrie for me is not a Valkyrie without the Gerwalk mode. The next 'gerwalk' robot for me would be Orguss. Then Galient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McFly!! Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Since you're onto this subject, I'd like to ask the community 2 things: 1. Which valk has the best looking Gerwalk in your opinion? Give me your 3 best. 2. Which non Macross toys can have a gerwalk mod that are not supposed to? 1.a. VF-1s with the strike pack 1.b. SV-51 Ivanov 1.c. VF-0S 2. Not sure, maybe the gundams that can transform into planes, e.g. Zeta, justice, rezel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenius Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 So while my wife was using the computer and I was talking to her I picked up my YF-25 Prophecy toy and transformed it to GERWALK mode. She turned around at one point and I said "Look, it was an airplane, now it's half airplane, half robot." She frowned, "GERCOCK mode looks so stupid." I was actually a little proud of her for almost knowing the term and of course laughed pretty hard about the way she did butcher it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devil 505 Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 For me, it's a tie between the Variable Glaug and the König Monster for best GERWALK mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanedas Bike Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Agreed that certain Valkyries just need to be shown/displayed in Gerwalk mode. And like others have said the VF-1D is one (if not "the" one in my book). -b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vsim Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 For my toys on display, I probably have about: 50% fighter 30% gerwalk 20% battroid 110% awesome! I would not say that I dislike any mode in particular. I am actually quite fond of gerwalk mode. Sometimes it depends on the toy. Some of them I think look terrible in certain modes.
