Good point....several things are different in DYRL vs SDFM.....maybe 310 gets the 1....320 gets the 2....330 gets the 3.....who knows.....anyone know the answer to how the numbers get assigned to GBP's in DYRL?
-
You are stuck on the idea that only Hikaru can commandeer a GBP armored VF-1J....clearly the film demonstrated that this is not the case....in the DYRL continuity....at least during the time in which the viewer is introduced to Hikaru...Hikaru pilots a VF-1A.....so obviously someone else is piloting the GBP seen in DYRL.... The HMR is marketed as DYRL version....the logo is right on the box.....additionally it is a BigWest licensed/endorsed product....Bandai knew it was not Hikaru piloting the GBP....so they probably just took the liberty with the pilot scheme.....as no one knows exactly what that pilot looks like or who he/she is....you can't say it is wrong or right....in other words...saying they screwed up the pilot is incorrect....what we do know is that the missile tips should have been yellow....that they did screw up....unless there are red tipped missiles seen in DYRL..... Oh and regarding the gunpod....it's right on the box....so if it's good enough for Big West....it's good enough for you....
-
But if they never showed the pilot in the DYRL GBP sequence....then how do you know they screwed it up? Next thing you'll be telling me is the pilot of the VF-4G is you, when I know it's really me!!!
-
I sent a message to NY whether order placed during the early window would be guaranteed the stand....they said yes... I don't trust them enough not to screw that up, so will probably use a proxy.... yup...
-
In DYRL, the VF-1J you refer to is piloted by someone else, not Hikaru....so Bandai did not screw up the pilot.....the GBP-1J is a DYRL type....what Bandai screwed up was the missile tips....
-
I have not checked....but is the pilot on the new HMR VF-1J removable this time around? Guessing it still isn't, but it does look much better.

1/100-ish

Basara shades as worn on Macross 7 by Movic..... Power to the Shades!!!

IMAX TFA poster 1 of 4....not sure if anyone posted..... -
-
Except the helmet is painted in SDFM colors.... ....kinda cool since it is not supposed to be Hikaru anyway, but some random pilot...
-
I was thinking they may do it as an exclusive when they release the VT-1 Super Ostrich...maybe take advantage of the same plastic color dyes?
-
Old School never gets old....
-
I think it is mixed...or a hybrid of sorts....the GBP is definitely not Hikaru, as they did not go out of their way to label it as such on the box.....but the Regult and Glaug are SDFM......the Regult would have been "green" if DYRL...perhaps a future websclusive? Anyways, even the Max and Milia -1J Supers are not correct "lineart" SDFM....I doubt Bandai will spend the cash for separate TV armor molds.....
-
It'll most likely be exactly the same as the HMR VF-1J...except the head!
-
So I guess the first HM Fokker VF-1S should now be considered the "DYRL movie edition"....
-
Between the HM and HMR collection...it is essentially the only DYRL VF they need to make to match Yamato's output.... Will they be leaving the yellow head arrows off? Hope not.
-
Should we be expecting more Tenjin boxart? Or was that just for the GBP-1J?
-
TFA is keeping it real!
-
I concur!
-
Until proven otherwise, I stand by my original assertion that the Ewoks were radicalized by the remnants of the Empire!
-
So I guess maybe I am not clear on how "Force sensitives" come about....were they "detected" by the Jedi Council?....If so, I would assume similar methods would be used by the Emperor....or is that what the Inquisitors do (sorry have yet to watch Rebels).... So anyway.....did force sensitive kids stop being born after a certain point? TFA takes place 30 years after the Emperor has died....somehow the remnants of the Empire kept searching out for Force sensitives to eliminate them....or suddenly there were no more being born? Or this that part of the whole Force Awakens again plot?
-
Well, at least you didn't mention the Alan Parsons Project....
-
I was thinking the same thing...and it kind of goes well with the qoute from Kylo Ren about "finishing what he (Vader...or at least how he/his group sees it) started"...it is easy to imagine growing up in the clusterF after the destruction of the second Death Star....ORDER and PEACE across the galaxy suddenly a stolen dream....think supporters of dictators like Hussain....their regimes are toppled and suddenly your world turns into a mess...you may yearn for the "good old days".....FIRST ORDER may refer to this vision of a Galactic ORDER promised to Luke by Vader during their Bespin duel....
-
For sure there will be more....I'm thinking something from MD next!
