AKA What Macross Zero should have been.

Hmm, I've noticed in both of your pics that the head can actually move up/down and left/right. My head can barely move at all. It feels like something is blocking it.

Another month... another chance for shameless self-promotion. http://www.mixcloud.com/JDCB/a-little-love-a-lot-of-lard/

I'm with wm chang, very nice looking. And what case is that? Also, be sure you leave a bit of room for the YF-30 as well.

Though it does make you wonder if he was so impressed with the Kai that it became official... what's the new thing he's so impressed with now?

My YF-29 arrived this afternoon. This is my first YF-29 and taking it out of the package I was underwhelmed. I wouldn't say it's the worst toy ever but compared to the 25 Renewals and the 171 (sans the exploding shoulders) it feels like it has the worst fit of all of them. Taking this thing out of the package was kind of like pulling out the YF-19 after already having a VF-1, 11 and 22 first... definitely the first attempt and a step back on several accounts compared to the VF-25's. I do have some sloppy paint apps. There's a bit of black on top of my cannons that's pretty noticeable. It's one of the few times I've been bothered by a botched paint app. It also wasn't transformed into fighter mode correct. So not a fantastic first impression unfortunately. I still disagree with the tan color they chose, it doesn't look great, especially with the glossy plastic. It's VERY toy-like (yeah, yeah... it is a toy.) In pictures I never found Battroid that cool looking but in person I've been enjoying posing it. I think Gerwalk looks like a beast, especially with all of the missile's showing, and it's my favorite of the three modes. Fighter I'm actually relatively disappointed in and probably won't mess with it much. Once the Super Parts arrive I may change my mind about fighter mode. I do feel like the wings should fold further back in Battroid however.

That thing looks bad-ass!!!

I do think people really like the design of the Zero line Valks, I just think the toys are so bad they aren't worth the effort.
-
Despite how some of us may feel about the look of these models there's no denying they are putting in an impressive effort.
-
All of you US people who have already received your YF-29's, where did you order from and by what means did you have them shipped? I'm very impressed how quickly some of you on the East Coast have managed to get yours. I'm still waiting in NM.

Mr K has said over and over that Mac2isn't profitable. It doesn't matter which of the Valkyries you choose to list from that series, it's still a no.

If you're going for a 17/19S there's very little "plunge" so to speak as they're heavily discounted and quite a good deal. If you prefer the white stripe/head style of the 17D/19F more then they will be more expensive. Personally I love all of my 17/19's S/D(x2)/S/F/P and think you would be happy purchasing them.
-
I wouldn't buy it. They just aren't very good toys. Hopefully Arcadia will eventually release new versions as the old one's are in desperate need of redoing.

1/48+fp's, 1/60+fp's, 1/72, 1/2k, 1/3k,1/100 and now 1/144
Mommar replied to VF-18S Hornet's topic in Toys
I just noticed the 202 on the nose. I hadn't done that with my Max (or my Milia.) It looks good. -
I would take both of those schemes plus the Teal Zolan scheme.
-
Oh, you're referring to the 22S. Everybody has been discussing VF-1 reissues and I was confused. The ghost isn't a Valk though, right? Neither is the SDF-1. Or do we know if it absolutely has to be a valk or for some reason I'm under that impression? I would buy all three of those things, however.
-
What's wrong with the red color on Milia's Valk?
-
You're in luck, he's already said it isn't something that's already been made (VT-1) and they aren't ever making MacII stuff.
-
Except for that first quote, which actually analyzes the movie as it is, the rest of the reviewers seem to be reviewing this movie like it' Rocky/Raging Bull which it is not.
-
Well, they do seem to be releasing things in the order of highest popularity. Roy, Hikaru, soon to be Isamu. Not sure if they would re-release Basara but Mac7 was pretty popular as who else is popular from that show? We've already got Gamlin and Docker covered... and they didn't go over too well. So that leaves Mylene.
-
I'm starting to get the feeling it's the 11MAXL with all of this information.
-
I did forget about that one... and it's a Delta wing, which may have been a hint way back when the 19 was first being talked about. Actually, wasn't there also a Sheryl sitting alongside that 0D? A female singer and a delta wing... could it actually be this? Those two pieces of information fit.
-
Well then we can heavily narrow this down. If we only know of DYRL, M+ and M7 there's nothing left from DYRL they can make. If it's a new Valk never been done before then there isn't anything left in M+ but the VA-3, which could also include the VA-3C from M7. Then there's the VF-14 (also in M+), VF-5000 and some of the enemy Mecha (which seem to be skipped as they don't sell.) There really aren't many options here. One thing I will say is the most likely to have re-sculpts is the VF-14. VF-14 PLUS version, all of the Varuta versions and the M3 version. VA-3 and VF-5000 are limited.
-
While all of the TV speculation is cool would that really impress Kawamori? He's already seen the DYRL version so unless they've whipped out some amazing new mechanic we've never seen (or he's just REALLY a fan of the original design) I kind of doubt that's the one.

Why try harder?
