seti88 Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 I didnt hear any official word on the color but all pics so far has been black. Maybe its in the japanese text? Or could it really be that their white turned out to be too pinkish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on the classic default theme so I didn't notice there was a text above the link. Sorry, old guy here. I just like the white background minimalist look. I added background color to see what it says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Universe1010 Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Congratulations the armor is worth it. I like it except the back find protection. It looks out of shape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizman Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 The only problem I have with the reactive armor is that I like it too much to take it off the VF-0..... maybe I'll have to get another one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

no3Ljm Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 That looks ok for a customed Low-Vis scheme. Wouldn't mind to buy an extra set if the plastic color is grey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sh9000 Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 It would be cool if the kit can be modified to fit the VF-0D but I don't need this so I'll pass. Arcadia getting very little of my money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly, it's a terrible design and I don't understand how it works on the 0S. do you have any spare yeti nubs? whatever you do don't put any super glue in the metal housing of the ball joint. if it's done correct, the hip bar and the ball shouldn't be able to pop out of the joint enclosure even if the nub is not glued. test it before gluing on a nub, if the hip bar is popping out, the enclosure is the problem.

anime52k8 Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 The problem is I just can't get the metal housing to fully close and yet be tight, either it gaps and the stem pulls out or the hip just flops around all limp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I've fixed my 0A multiple times now too... I also wonder what they did to make the 0S work or why we've seen fewer failures on the 0D. I can get my 0A leg to stay on pretty well with the YetiStand nub but the hip is pretty loose. The original nub needs to be handled gingerly and eventually fails. Honestly, I don't understand this kit release at all. What is the market for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kajnrig Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Hey everyone. I saw a Twitter post on Facebook about the Armor pack, and I was just wondering: Is this the Reactive Armor pack as a kit, or is it a VF-0A/S + Reactive Armor kit?

Photos from their site: They should've made all light grey like the shade of grey on the chest missile cover. It's an instant buy for me if it is because I really want one with that kind of grey.

Xigfrid Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I want to buy one, but I don't even know what to do with it ... or on which VF-0 it would be displayed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kajnrig Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Sheesh, that is one hell of a premium price... Is it even a kit at all? That seems more the price you'd pay for a regular add-on release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Focker Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 has Arcadia ever sold anything during their previous appearances at Wonfes? contemplating whether to PO at NY or pick up one at the Arcadia booth when i go to Wonfes this July Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boobytrap Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Not really interested in this, which is too bad. I want to support Arcadia releasing kits, but without a VF-0 I can customize along with the RA I just don't see the need to get it. Hopefully enough other people purchase this to encourage Arcadia to release other kits. I will be pretty though if they release a VF-0 kit after this has sold out.

chyll2 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 The kit's value will probably appreciate with enough time. Web exclusive means supply will only meet the demand. With that price, I am sceptic that people are lining up for PO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I don't know that this will appreciate... I think it will go down for a while before it goes up. You can still find the regular version easily and it will probably be available for less than the kit soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seti88 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 (edited) Hard to say, but looking at the unpainted kit makes the painted version ever much desirable, esp with the red/green and gold trims at the back. That being said, on the kit, am half interested to see what markings/stickers if they are, included in this kit. Markings really do significantly improve the look of the RA.

treatment Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I think it should just come included with the 0A as standard accessory, at no additional cost. Should act as an apology/appeasement for the 0A's kinda crappy build-quality for an expensive figure... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kajnrig Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I mean... the prefinished release is only 5000 yen more, and you can find the long out of production Hasegawa kit still selling for significantly less than either of these, AND it comes with the VF-0S included. It's a bit smaller in scale, but only just. This is just bad pricing strategy, or at least in the eyes of this particular plebeian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rather paint my regular one instead of paint the whole thing since I only want the blue parts on my regular one to be grey. And I get to keep the red/green clear parts and gold trims in the booster since they look superb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
