jenius Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) It took a while for Yamato to grow and folks who funded Yamato might have been burned. Arcadia may be much smaller in many respects, a truly boutique operation. Edited September 26, 2016 by jenius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xigfrid Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Just asked Mr K about the possibility for SV-51 renewal today, he said its very likely to happen, and he would glad if Macross fans can support him to make Arcadia redo the older Yamato SV-51. Let me know where to sign the petition! I would be happy for the new SV-51 or YF-21 indifferently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetrollphysicist Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 A more correct translation of the answer would be:"We are probably be able to do it, if we do, please support us." thats what Mr K said And the pic i post to him is an SV-51 Cannon Fodder type Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoexcaliber Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Considering how well the VF-0A sold, I somehow doubt the SV-51 would have enough sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetrollphysicist Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) Considering how well the VF-0A sold, I somehow doubt the SV-51 would have enough sales. But then again, i think one of the SV-51 will have quality control problem like the VF-0's leg joints...fall off on Shin's 0A Edited September 26, 2016 by thetrollphysicist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seti88 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Considering they rectified the leg issue in the 0S, it shows that arcadia can learn from their mistakes. Of course, if they just did a straight re-paint of the old SV-51 for a CF version, then you would know what you are getting. it depends on what a re-do means to arcadia..

Sildani Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Well, it changes. For one of the VF-0's, they retooled the mold and resculpted some major parts. For the VF-4G,they supposedly made the missile tabs larger, but the missiles still fall off easily. For the YF-19,they introduced a beefier Battroid and eliminated the thick gullet in fighter mode. Then they gave it high-speed mode wings and introduced a thick upper intake lip. Of course, they always seem to change the colors as well, which causes some members here no end of grief. It's a craps shoot. I think I've read, though, that the 51 is so floppy in certain modes that almost any change might be welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetrollphysicist Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) Also, a throwback from 2015, Mr K personally wants to do Anti-UN mechs for Mac-0 line as well, it appears that its a high possibility that we might see an Arcadia SV-51 in the future Edited September 26, 2016 by thetrollphysicist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetrollphysicist Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 After the reactive armor set, we gonna get a 0A Mass Production release, possibly next year or this year.

jenius Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 (edited) I'm betting it's vaporware, it hasn't been mentioned in a long time. Edited October 5, 2016 by jenius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignacio Ocamica Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I hope you are wrong but it's very likely the VF-0A is vaporware! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvmacross Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 If the Macross Zero license is firmly in their grip...you would think they would try and milk their existing molds.... Ironically, with their pricing being so much higher and discounts/clearance sales on Arcadia valks now being few and far between....Bandai would now be on the other end of the pricing spectrum if they were to decide to release some Macross Zero HMR's....this time they would have the lower priced offerrings, when before, during the initial HM run...Yamato clearance sales prices made Bandai HM's a tough sell.....

seti88 Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Arcadia had numerous chances to annouce the 0a cf this year but nada news from them. The placard wasnt even displaced again in any exhibitions so far this year. Its likely vapourware for now. The exciting news is we all get to get excited anticipating what the next valk release would be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boobytrap Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 (edited) I just don't see why Arcadia doesn't capitalize on the easy money of making the CF VF-0A. They would have to do very little work to produce it. Sure, Shin's sat around for awhile but I think that had more to do with the leg issue than anything else. It seemed to me, that once word got around that they had fixed the issue, the VF-0S sold much more quickly. I'm sure that if they released the VF-0A with the leg issue fixed that it would sell fairly well. Especially if they timed the release to coincide with the same time frame as the RA. Hell, I would bite on a nice low vis repaint with fixed legs of the VF-0D real damn quick!!! Add me to that list!

seti88 Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Likely the 0s sold out better than the shin as its a roy variant more than anything. I think with the delta hype this year, they were kinda smart to lay low on the valks, as everyone would be bedazzled with delta valks to pay much attention to any Arcadia release, what more a cf that wasn't prominent in M0.

But since there's no official word yet, and 2016 is almost over, then I doubt it will be released this year. Hence, my comment if it's official.

warrhead Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 (edited) It's too bad Arcadia doesn't do projects in a similar way to how Yamato's VF-4G went down. Has anyone ever tried to start a crowd funding campaign to make a robot project happen? Arcadia's niche' business model would be ideal for bringing projects to fruition via alternative funding sources.
