  1. Wow yeti,awesome shots! You are opening up a whole new way to display here... I can imagine painting the wall (blue skies, moving ground) which would instantly bring out the display with background! Or a mirror solution with a gap in the center where the wall mount goes, to show off the undersides of the valks flying on the wall.. nice!
  2. We need more proof! We need the extended directors cut edition!!!

    BANDAI DX YF-19!!

    whoever is going next year, remember ... stealth camera or long zoom! Their no photography policy is most likely to encourage ppl to go to the events, instead of trawling the net for......oh......OK. Pardon me..
  4. two legs but a single thruster? x-wing did it! tho whether its two halves or 2 full rings joined closely together, is anyone's guess. We need a zoomed in directly behind the nozzle picture to confirm this!
  5. 2 words. pre-order madness. Thats one sexy paintjob and sculpt!! Looks like it fits together very well!

    Bandai 1/35 DX VF-1

    thank you for the nice laugh , autocorrect!
  7. tochiro, you just made my saliva glands act up with ur statement! plus you got to spend some close up time with it .... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aether_(classical_element) aether means pure or fresh skies...fits the hero valk nicely...am not sure if it would be adressed as the VF-31 aether version...

    Bandai 1/35 DX VF-1

    easy with google translator! 変換!! henkan!! thats taking valk fetish to another level!
  11. thats an avatar (hair) and macross plus (brainwaves) rehash! hey but if it works it works... I would rather think of it like having fold powers tho...like they can activate space fold anytime...and ...warp in weapons!

    Bandai 1/35 DX VF-1

    waiting to see the 1/35 gunpod that fires bb's! or an internal lighted up instrument cluster.....swoon.....
  13. The pointed ends of the draken pilots hair look a bit like Plus the fact they named the draken with anti-UN desigs...SV....should be link to the past somewhere... more questions than answers!
  14. Magenta area for shoulders do seem so, looking at how the insignia is tampo'ed at the side of the valk instead of facing upward (which normally r the cases!). Nice catch scyla on that. It would be awesome to have a shoulder patch, looking even more beefier now! The lower blue part i suspect could be the arm! Due to the single thruster config, the legs would require centralisation, and if the lower blue is a leg, then the legs would be gigantic! I cant see where the arms would slot to if that is the case, leaving me to believe that it most likely the arm/wrist area. All said, how do the flaps sit in part of the arm or leg! Agree with you also that maybe the head unit would be underside.. Weird all this discussion on beefy/arms/legs is giving me a strange vibe... The 262 wing stripes look like zentradi pockets!!! hmmm.,,you may hv a point there, now with the european castles backdrop...a german influence?
  15. This draken looks like he would be wearing boots with piston like joints facing forward...a bit Frankenstein-ish perhaps?

    Go mandarake online I mean... You can browse at ur leisure and it covers many mandarake branches across JP.
  17. One flap? If u can call it that..still looks more pointed than the other..I tried to reason that it maybe folded wrongly but seems like a totally different shape still to me...edit- 2nd glance yea I can imagine it being same if the right is angled more upwards...Plus I still can't make out the head unit outline behind the cockpit!
  18. I try not to comment too much on colors, as even the anime isn't that consistent scene to scene either..depends if ur a stickler for that stuff... The big grouse many have is the choice of colors of arcadia's leg fins, which seem to be more blue than navy grey. However it's localized mainly on the leg fins and some don't find it too far off from the naval colors. The white Arcadia's 0s does look whiter at the moment for sure! You probably be better off questioning if u are ok with the new mold, whether if u want to pair it w the armor or even if the price is reasonable to u.
  19. The main point is that it would be compatible with the upcoming reactive armour release, whilst the old yamato has a much wider chest which has been mentioned to not fit. Secondly its the updated mold and metal parts on the swingbars. Also,, depending on your preference on anime color accuracy, you may or may not like the paint scheme better.

    Forget e-Bay its scalper haven.....You probably would hv better luck on madarake or even the for sale section of the forums...
  21. Thanks for the close-up IXTL...noticed several areas of interest in the pics... 1) Those flaps really got me scratching as they seem to be different in shape between the left and right wing. Not sure if its some form of pull out which were not pulled out properly. What funstion would they serve as the shape also looks triangular... 2) The head structure seems to be very integrated to the extent that wondering if its positioned there or perhaps like the old vf-1's where its underside.... There doesnt seem to be any gaps at all... 3) Hinge on the tail fin seem to indicate it could fold either left or right.... 4)Ankle joints seem exposed...is there a cover thats been forgotten? Not to mention the thickness of the valk from the rear view is very different from the flattish 31! Questions questions!
  22. arcadia should sock em to bandai by releasing 1/100 delta valks!
  23. i would like leave this thread open....there may be more annoucements coming up since the airing is not that far away on Dec 31st.. Its hopefully gonna be more civil and quieter after the mega announcements over the past few days... or perhaps monitor the situation a bit more...
