  1. Any news???
  2. The nose is totally wrong, shape, size (too short for a fighter or gerwalk), etc, etc, etc About the durability, It's a Model Kit, not a toy, I have like 80 or more model kits, they are dissing for display, toys like Yamato (expensive ones) were dissing to be "playable", so you can manipulate the toy and have some interaction with it. I know model kits were toys but that's not the case these days, no one, play with model kits, because the small parts, they are fragile, etc. So you can't ask for durability IMHO Seriously, I'm not against these new Bandai VF-1, its just I don't get the idea of a new 1/72 VF-1, with Hasegawa having a great line of fighter/battroid VF-1 in the same scale. Gerwalk was so forgiven, why not a new and good non transformable model kit of a VF-1 in gerwalk mode????
  3. Why you compare these bandai with yamato,?? these is a model kit, Yamato's are toys IMHO. You can compare these bandai with Hasegawa or ARII but no with Yamato, totally different. For me these Bandai VF-1 is terrible, the nose is really bad (shape and size), wing size are too big in Battroid and too short in fighter, Gerwalk dosn't look good, so what's the point, the arms and legs are off in fighter mode, etc etc etc... Well is just mi opinion, I know a lot of people don't agree with me.
  4. Mr. Cheng totally agree with you. I don't even like how it looks in gerwalk mode
  5. For me at least the Studio Halfeye Macross kits are the same with these Bandai option. If you want to transform, buy yamato, if you want a model kit, well buy hasegawa or bandai if you want, but as a static model kit. Did any one build a Bnadai VF-25 and try to transform the kit? after the second time you will have a lot of scratches all around the joints, All I said is, this is some thing we modelers don't need, we need gerwalk mode model. The toys people don't need it, they have Yamato, so whats the point??
  6. mmm... looking the kit as a plamo I just think "how do I fill all the gaps and still transform this model kit?" To me its the same thing as the Vf-25, you will never transform the kit because that will ruin all the paint job, all the gap filling, all your sanding, etc, etc etc. What we really need as a modeler is a really good reprecentation of the VF-1 in gerwalk mode, but It will never trasnform. If I come to buy one of these bandai VF-1 i will build it as a Gerwalk, for sure, but it will never transform. The Hasesgawa VF-1 fighter/batroid looks a lot bether than these bandai, proportions, especially in Batroid mode, the wings are to big, arms are very thin because they need to fit in the space between the legs in fighter mode, etc. I mention these as a modeler.
  7. Well... these wil need A LOT of puty to fill all those gaps
  8. I don't hate the bandai VF-1, but I really don't like the nose, so different from the anime (to round). Just my opinion
  9. Hasegawa decals have improve in the last 4 years or so. The decals that came with the late 90's until 2008 were terrible!!! The Yf-19 are not that bad, well at least for me
  10. I know it's an early stage, but the all round nose, the skinny legs and arms, the wings in Batroid mode look to long, etc, etc. There is an old thread here about the Hase 1/48, some one post a picture of the Hase 1/48 converted (as a test i think) to Batroid, looks exactly the same, skinny, wing out of proportion, etc. Just my opinion. I just pray some day Hasegawa will do a Gerwalk mode kit in any scale!!!!
  11. Petar, really nice job!!!!
  12. NICE!!!! but where is the Super/Strike in 1/48???????
  13. I already pre-order 1, but I'm looking for variants of the classic Macross Plus schema, but I can't find any. I found some different sachems but for the C or D variants but not a single one for the B variant. Some one have any pics or any good reference?
  14. Really really nice !!! I have mine in the closet waiting!!!! ... someday!!!
  15. Any news? Almost 2 1/2 years si ce the lounch of the 1/48 vf-1
