Box cover should have omitted the pic of the toy...then it would have been classy...but then again, is this the slip sleeve cover?....the box itself probably will be like the 30th VF-1J.....or maybe the line art minus the pic of the toy....that would be nice...overall I like it better than yamato's photoshop'd boxes... Either way...keeping the pre-order due to this not being "off-white"...as it should be based on the animation and every color pic I have ever seen of it....never understood why Yamato went "off-white" for their DYRL VF-1's... looking at it again...the design is a combination of the 1/48 weathered VF-1S box and the built "no-paint" 1/60 VF-1S...2 of my favorite box designs...good work Arcadia....loose the toy pic for the Hikaru box!.....

What exactly did the Anti-Unification Alliance believe it could accomplish on it's own against "what they knew was coming"?

GGemini custom Macross the First VF-1J.....http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=37248

Probably....

Wonder how long before Arcadia gets this bold in their releases? Then again...it was an exclusive (although briefly available at some online retailers for a while)... It's ironic that the VF-X is actually one of the few valks that still commands a premium these days after the fall of Yamato....but that Yamato/Macross Chronicle must have over-estimated it's initial demand (thus ending up at HLJ along with the Angel Birds)...I'm sure this lesson played into the new strategy of valks "made to order" from Yamato for the VF-4 and now Arcadia.....a wise choice....too late for Yamato, but a good move for Arcadia.... Another marketing/sales strategy would be to build them per "fan choice" polls and up-front payments......that may be the only way to ever see obscure valks (like the VF-X) in the future....

White DYRL VF-1's with SV-51 style stands and water-slide decals.....this is nothing like a Yamato valk!
-
Wait......they will be white like the TV versions???......suddenly (as of yet unseen) photoshop'd box covers are no longer a reason to cancel my preorders......never understood why they weren't white to begin with.....every time I've seen them in DYRL.....they look white to me...not off-white.....

...and for godsakes do not ever transform it! Doing so puts you in direct violation of Big West licensing and copyrights!!!

Can someone ask Mr. K if Macross the First VFs and SDF-1 are on the way? Was kind of hoping for them as perhaps a Macross Chronicle exclusive, but I guess there will be no Macross Chronicle exclusives at all....

I thought that was ultimately the point of the entire SW saga? But now that we have a new set of movies coming out...I guess that was not the case.....or is it? I think the plot for this new trilogy is the return of Palpatine and the rise of the sith.......again.....what else can it be? Star Wars without some new Sith menace is not Star Wars......Throw in some more Skywalker family disfunction and you have a whole new 6-part series based on redeeming a whole new generation of Skywalkers....like grandpa, like grandson...... -

Thanks....sent the designer an email about scaling up to 1/60.... As far as line accurate...I'd say close enough....

Happy Halloween!!!

If he/she can.....would you make a 1/60 crew for it???
-
Hope so, I think Arcadia/Mr. K's perception on the popularity/profitability of Macross II VALKS is unfairly based on the show's unpopularity....Macross II valks would sell well even if the actual show is a low-point in Macross history..... Arcadia needs to start doing fan choice VF's based on online polls via their website......need skullmilitia to suggest this to Mr. K....

1/60 has become the defacto scale for Macross perfect transformation toys.... If you really sold off everything, then just head to your online shop of choice and pre-order the VF-1S Hikaru and Roy....plus the new and improved YF-19 from Macross Plus....you can find info about these new Arcadia (new company risen from the ashes of Yamato's bankruptcy) releases on the Toys thread..... It seems that most of the standard VF's will eventually see a re-issue...so it is probably best to wait and see....the high prices for most of Yamato's 1/60 V2 line seem to have calmed a bit....however, there are still a few that command higher prices...but some of those will likely be re-issued by Arcadia.... Good Luck........
