Whats next for Arcadia?

I wish they would do one of the rarer Valk's that have yet to be done, like:

  • VF-1 Orgroid
  • Mylene's VF-11 MAXL
  • Varauta Fz-109F Elgerzorene, or any Varauta valk

I know those are both unlikely, but I think VF-1's and VF-19's are overrepresented by Yam-cadia.

Blech! What ever happened to that vomiting emoticon?! Honestly, I think this is hands down Kawamori-san's fugliest Macross design. But it does have uniqueness in its corner. Just the same, unless Arcadia could make it so gloriously cool that it transcends its own eyesore-ness, I think I'd have to pass. I don't think I could look at that every day without feeling equal parts of remorse and disgust.

I'd sure love to have a high end Variable Glaug, though. They could pump that out in several color variations as well, for maximum investment. And the VF-14. I want some 'Space Pope" in my life! :lol:

No early prototype or even a cardboard standee or a coming soon sign.

Cardboard standee you say? Don't panic yet. You might want to check Mr.K's twitter post last month. ;)

Kidding aside, you'll never know. :D

Even better would be a new scheme, there's plenty of other canon VF-11 schemes. Milia's is the most-shown, but VFX-2's is awesome.

(yes, Milia actually has 2 totally different but equally canon VF-11 schemes)

(for VFX-2, it's gotta be the yellow-canard variant like this)

the first one is supposed to be a YF-11, the second is a VF-11B. reasonable enough explanation for the change in color scheme.

I forgot abt that! haha :lol: Yes definately a possibility :D

I would actually love to get my hands on a VF-11 reissue. Even better if it's a new mold but the Yamato version was pretty solid too.

If only arcadia did do this, i know i definately will be all in.

Frankly am not sure if arcadia's price point position is somehow preventing them from possibily re-releasing older toys.

Posted by Arcadia on Twitter yesterday, courtesy of Google Translate:

"Good morning!

This month is a perfect transformation YF-19 (reproduction) release date! We revved up!"

So there's that.

Arghh, not the 19! Oh well, I'm probably not the core demographics for Arcadia. Too cheap.

Because everyone needs a YF-19 reissue...

Even if that's sarcasm (which I partially share BTW) the Bandai VF-19 Advance has really filled my want for a YF-19.

Sorry Arcadia - you can't have my money on this one (barring a ridiculous sale some time down the line, which would be bad and a repeat of the last days of Yamato :().

I had a thought; it took arcadia 2 years and a month to reissue the YF-19. At that rate we'll probably be getting a VF-0D reissue in March of 2017. between now and then? VF-1S reissues? :rolleyes:

I want a VF-0D that doesn't break so bad though. :(

Assuming Arcadia doesn't keep releasing eventual bargain bin items that is.

Seriously, how hard is it milk the VF-1 molds or revisit them? Give the people what they want...

*sorry, Flu has me unusually glass-half-full right now

I'm guessing mech wise for this year it's VF-4, YF-19, YF-19 weathered in summer and maybe VF-0A CF in Fall with their 3Dlabs doing a limited Battle 7.

Also, I wonder with Delta having the VF-1's appear maybe that would be a consideration?

I'd love either a VF-11 2.0 or a VT/VE-1 assembly kit if they could.

How well are Arcadia's products selling? Is it weird for their products to be available for so long? I get the VF-0A and VF-0D rotting due to their propensity to fall apart, but the VF-0S seems to be sitting a lot longer than the YF-19. Back in the heyday of Yamato would their products just sit for months and months? I would definitely like to see more signs of life from Arcadia, especially since I don't think their non-Macross business adds up to all that much. Some SDF/DYRL reissues would be most welcome, particularly the rarer 2.2 stuff (VF-1D, VE-1, VT-1, Super parts, etc).

A VF-0D that doesn't break and has the correct Anime blue finish, the current versions blue is really dark. B))

Arcadia normally takes a while to clear, so i think thats pretty normal. However i do thk that frequent re-releases and a high price point, stretch products to be on the shelf a lil longer than usual.

I thk the 4G was a nice re-release but the YF-19 seemed a lil too soon.

I do however want arcadia to hv a seperate category for lower priced items, as i am not sure if everyone can constantly afford such high pricing.

I want a VF-0D that has that super bright saturated blue that the first prototype had that everyone complained about. :p
