Prime 1 Studio Non-Scale VF-1

I see the folks at Robotech are still of the opinion that a camera lens (in the head) should emit light rather than absorb it.

I remember when they released one of their earlier “Veritech” toys with the stupid LED head unit gimmick, the window-lickers were all over it like fat kids in a candy store, lol!

This isnt a toy, its a statue. In fact has there been a valkyrie statue before? :unknw:

Not too sure if its gonna be lighted either those could just be CAD highlights.

*correction* looks likely it could be highlight areas where LED point could be used. I just saw their bumblebee transformners statues lighted. 

With statues, details are upmost priority, so expect a lot of details on this one, especially since its prime 1.

If it's not cheaper than the Hi-metal Max 1J that just came out it's a super easy pass since the Hi-metals can easily do that same pose

Since the non-transforming Revoltech VF-1J is much cheaper than the Hi-Metal R. Wait, did I just say non-transforming? Because this one is basically just a statue, right? :lol: So I should say if it's not cheaper than the Revoltech VF-1J that came out like 10 years ago it's a very super easy pass for me since the Revoltechs can easily do that same pose. ^_^ 

And here's a proof:

LOL i would consider that a sovenier trinket. :rolleyes::p

btw, that revoltech would look tiny next to a statue. but i get the point that if its the pose your after then a revoltech may suffice.

Am not a prime 1 fan or even a fan of statues in general, but am quite excited to see what prime 1 would come up with for this.

A statue is a display piece and could come close to everyone's talk abt scale of 1/20 scale! ok.. maybe not close but still much larger than anything we have at the moment...

I honestly dont know how tall this would be but their optimus prime statues were 27inches tall!

Yeah, only those morons at Harmony Gold would do something like that, and only those Robotech-loving "window-lickers" would want a toy that did that.

Dat evangelion is dope but again the price is for hard core collectors...

I do like however how they manage to have separate heads, arm configurations and hands that could be swapped out. For a statue that's bringing more variety into a fixed pose.

 

The TF starscream, its so far altered from the comics that i dont like it at all (blame the whole TF movie franchise if you will), but for comparisons sake....anticipating perhaps the valk boosters to be lighted up would be nice...

Cant wait to see what they have planned for the valk..

Too bad they aren't making a VF-1S. At least not yet. I never liked the head sculpt on this version. I do like to have transforming vehicles be transformable in toy / model form. But Prime 1's Evangelion statues look really good. I expect the same of this one with a detailed base.
