I noticed in a couple episodes when this thing is flying in fighter mode, the gold highlights are hidden and then dramatically appear. What's that about? I couldn't tell if that was supposed to be significant somehow.

She was always my queen!
-
I wonder why they went backwards from the swivel waist of the YF-30.
-
Yeah, I mean, so it can point or shoot up, or whatever. Like jenius said. I'm wondering if it's just a limitation of the toy or if it's designed that way a la Kawamori. I don't really care either way, just curious.
-
Just out of curiosity, does anyone know if this thing's arms rotate all the way around? I mean, I know the toy's arms don't, but I was wondering if there are line arts or sketches or specs that show it.
-
holy crap
-
Anyone try a tiny bit of Bondic or super glue or some other method to create a fake detent for the tail fins?
-
Well that's fine, but I am. I guess I wouldn't be if the valks and toys *never* had them, but they always had them until the -30 and after, which seems kinda sloppy.
-
Same deal with VF-31 as with the -30: no visible forward thrust mechanism in Gerwalk mode, nor any obvious maneuvering verniers, that every preceding Valkyrie had. Are these ignored details on animation model/toys, or is there some new in-universe tech?
-
Hmm, this thing doesn't seem to have any verniers either (which are present in all over Valks also). How does it maneuver in space?
-
Yeah, actually I like all three of those styles. Nice variety.
-
ugh, no
-
I'm all about the -31C :-)
-
Yep, first episode of Frontier I think, Alto coasts forward in gerwalk mode for a while using those thrusters after he rescues Ranka. Damn, I really like the -30 but this is gonna bother me, haha. I'm silly like that I guess.
-
So.... guys. Where are the rear thrusters on this thing in gerwalk mode? I.e., how does it fly forward in gerwalk mode? As far as I remember every other Valk has some sort of thrust that can be used for this purpose; even the -25 has those tiny little things where the shield was connected in fighter mode. But I can't see any such thing on the -30.
-
I actually like the shape of the gear, although David's point about the doors acting as accidental air brakes during take off is interesting.
-
Okay thanks. :-)
-
Are you able to lock in the legs/intakes in GERWALK for more stability if you didn't need the waist joint?
-
Because of all those extra atms of pressure in the vacuum of space, right?
-
So this may be the worst idea ever, but... Has anyone considered just gluing the missiles in place?
-
The arms do take some particular aligning to go back. I'm pretty comfortable with it so you will eventually get an instinctive feel for it, but I hear ya, the first several times it was not fun.
-
Given your previous post history I'm not sure it's a joke at all. You have some sort of rage crusade or something.
-
Ahh yeah you're right. Now that I see that the module can store neatly in fighter mode I like it even more.
-
Hahahaha I really want this thing! The only thing that looks odd is the missile pod FAST pack in fighter mode.
-
This is pretty much it right here, for any business. Let's not kid ourselves here about company morality - what it boils down to is "this particular company's business strategy is not conducive to me getting foreign toys as an unintended market and that makes me angry".
