    Against all better judgement I'm going to wind up with all three of these I think.

    Can I just thank you for spelling "Voilà" correct and not confusing it for some nonsense word beginning with a "W."

    Damn, I can't wait for my S, F and P after watching those videos. Something I did notice in that second video is they're using the fact the ankles tilt left and right farther than forward/back plus the legs being splayed to make an aggressive a stance instead of adjusting the ankles forward/back to get the same pose. It's not impossible to get something really aggressive you just can't do it with the legs straight forward/back.

    I'd love some alternate paint schemes as well but with the prices as high as they are I'm skeptical the market would even bother bearing that.

    The toes have clickable positions? That's way better then those damn floppy toes on the Hi-metal VF-1's.
  6. Mommar
    Does the "toe" joint make up for the lack of ankle movement?
  7. Mommar
    I thought there was something about increasing range of motion as well but maybe I'm going crazy.
  8. Mommar
    That is a pretty good idea. Though we did still find ways to break it in many spots.

    No offense to anyone here but I've always been curious what the definition of "force" has been for most of the guys around here. It makes me think back to a video I saw concerning men and the complaints women had about sex with them. 90% of men thought they were being gentle when in reality it was more like they were punching a woman in the crotch. I know based on a lot of the video reviews I've seen I've always felt like there has been way too much force applied to most of the toys during transformations and wouldn't be surprised if some of those toys eventually broke.

    I'm pretty sure Graham already said the ankles are going to be ball joint but that Yamato is reworking them to be better.

    To be honest a few of my 1/60 V2 Yammie VF-1's also have wings that are curved up a little so it's not like this issue is limited to Bandai. Both my 1S TV Roy and 1A Anglebirds have slightly upturned wings.

    I went back and looked at the two schematics and I really don't think it would take that much to rework the nose for a 17T. While it's true the neck/cockpit need to be longer the transformation is the same and the addition of extra long neck also makes hiding the extra long cockpit easy and doesn't change the transformation in the torso at all. It's still more tricky than the VF-19 changes but shouldn't be too difficult. It would still be easier to just slap the paint scheme on a regular 17 and change the head though.
  13. Mommar
    The forearms also have to be changed to cover the cannon ports which may or may not affect the transformation depending on how Yamato has implemented it right now. They COULD always cheat and just do the paint scheme without modifying the body at all.

    I really don't think those in-dents are going to actually hold missiles. I think they're just there for looks.
  15. Mommar
    How did I miss that? I can't seem to find it.

    "The top of the VF-17-S's head (excluding head lasers), comes to the top of The Fire Valks head fin." Except in that chart the VF-17's head doesn't stand as high as the tip of the Fire Valks head fin. They're pretty much exactly the same here, as was the assumption. But being as tall as the head fin is adding quite a bit more height.
  17. Mommar
    Not that it concerns me any but won't some people piss and moan that that's too tall? I thought the VF-17 was slightly shorter than the VF-19 in Battroid.

    Funny you should say that. I really like the way these molds look with the gray color. I'd probably prefer more realistic alternate colors to the actual animation on these birds.

    I'm not going to assume AmiAmi has a discount. If I haven't seen it advertised as such then it isn't that cheap yet. As it stands it's $300+ with shipping. $290+ with shipping isn't a huge step up.
  20. Mommar
    That price does not include shipping.
  21. Mommar
    That's not surprising but I was really hoping it wouldn't be $300+.
  22. Mommar
    I hope the pics start coming fast and furious now. Now that we've seen an official shot from Yamato is there anything else you can let us in on about them Graham?
  23. Mommar
    It also didn't appear like that in the animation either.
  24. Mommar
    Just like it appears in the CAD image, this thing is going to have MONSTER shoulders.
  25. Mommar
    Just to add, Yamato's website says this thing us due out in November.
