Hi-Metal R, Damn, I'm in.
-
From all the photos I've seen so far of the Threezero VF-1J, the large chest vents and weird head sculpt just don't do it for me, so I don't think I'm going to be picking one up. Happy enough at the moment with the Bandai DX and HMR for my VF-1 needs. I even got rid of most of my old Yamato 1/48 and 1/60 v2 in the last few years as most of the ones with white plastic had yellowed to some degree.

Hoping that on this release they may finally have changed the tab design so that the arms and legs lock more securely in place in fighter mode. But I'm probably expecting way too much. 😅
-
Definitely getting 1 in B4. size. Kinda tempted to also get 1 in A4 also. 😅
-
My Bandai DX VF-1J with GBP-1S Armor set also includes the Battroid egress seat.
-
It's common with the DX line. 2 out of my 5 DX VF-1 toys came with loose cockpit instrument panels.
-
Just saw an announcement on Facebook that the release date has been delayed until January 25th, 2024. ðŸ˜

Just the lighting from my phone camera's flash.

So, anybody else having trouble getting the wings tabbed all the way into the legs in fighter mode? Especially the left wing.
-
Only issue with my recently purchased Mirage VF-31AX is that one of the arm railguns is angled a bit downward in fighter mode. Apart from that the toy is fine.

'First time I've ever seen a Valk wearing roller skates!🤣

I know I'm very late to the game, but after a 6 year hiatus from all things Macross, I finally decided to get myself some Bandai DX VF-1 this in the past month. 😅 Got VF-1S Hikaru + Strike Parts + missile set, VF-1D, VF-1A Kakizaki and VF-1J Hikaru + GBP-1S Armor. Really nice toys. My only complaint is the way the arms and legs peg into the toy in fighter mode is not really secure enough with the Super/Strike Parts installed.

The box art is new Tenjin art. It's not in any book yet.
-
On both my HMR VF-0D the wings cannot peg in all the way into the legs in fighter mode. The pegs only go about halfway into the leg slots. I think the pegs or tabs (whatever you want to call them) are slightly oversize. I may need to try carefully filling down the peg/tabs on the wings.
-
Wait, you want tires on your DX VF-1???? That'll be a web exclusive for 10,000Yen 🤣
-
At this point with the DX VF-1 series, I'm surprised that Bandai doesn't sell us the FAST packs piece by piece or the missiles, missile-by-missile as Tamashi exclusives, LOL😅 Peasants......Just count yourselves lucky that we actually get a pilot figure with the Valk, not as a paid web-exclusive, limited edition extra! Hahaha I really shouldn't be giving them ideas.😂

Living in Hong Kong, I'm kinda worried about the "excluding China" comment.....sigh.
-
Any VF-5000 toy is welcome, but I'd personally prefer a VF-5000B, rather than a VF-5000G.
-
Yes, and edited my original post.
-
TH VF-1S has more HP than the YF-19 and a better rolling stat......hmmm?

New Macross Animation Announced, to be animated by Sunrise
Graham replied to seti88's topic in Movies and TV Series
Delta also had the downside that 9 in a row (after episode 13) had no mecha or almost no mecha scenes. -
I love Frontier, it's my second favorite Macross TV series after 7.

I used to love playing Philosoma on the PS1 back in the day. So it's good news for me if this game plays like Philosoma.

New Macross Animation Announced, to be animated by Sunrise
Graham replied to seti88's topic in Movies and TV Series
I think it will be interesting to see how Sunrise handle a Macross show. As long as it is better than Delta, I'll be happy. But that is a pretty low bar, so it shouldn't be difficult. Hopefully there is a decent budget allocated to it and we get some good animation quality and and a fair amount of mecha action. I'm fine with Macross animes always being based on the standard 3 pillars of music, mecha and a love triangle, but at least give me 5 minutes of mecha action per 20 + minute episode. The thing I hated most about Delta is that after Messer died in episode 13, we had no mecha action at all until episode 24 IIRC. I remember week after week hoping for some mecha action, but there was nothing. Heck I'll even settle for just 2 minutes of mecha per episode as long as it's well animated. My guess is that Sunrise will go somewhere back in the timeline, rather than do a post-Delta show. -
Hard pass, not digging the sculpt.
