From MW FB page...tenjin-san's signature and close up of one of the insignia,...Skull with batwings..
Maybe this guy is the pilot for that VF-31. He look old and gritty enough to be the Ozma/Roy type.

All you guys trying to get multiples for display....don't forget....you also need to display fully clothed.....and butt naked!
Possible removable armor panels that expose the inner mechanical detail? Yeah, that sound like something Bandai would do.
We are slowly moving towards 1/1.....baby steps!
We might need to sell our houses to be able to buy it if that happens.

So, will there be pre-order madness this Sunday night?
Forgive my ignorance, but what's coming out this Sunday?
I know it's probably Bandai... -
Slaves and armpits?!? Are you on the right forum?
LOL
Here you go man.

waiting to see the 1/35 gunpod that fires bb's!
or an internal lighted up instrument cluster.....swoon.....
BBs? You're thinking too small my friend.
A voice activated fully automatic transformation system is more like it. You have to yell TRANSFORMATION!! (in Japanese of course, we international fan doesn't exist remember. ) for it to work though.

I'd say the previous owners either broke it.. the gap around the door itself is large enough to allow dust in regardless.. obviously not as bad as having the door missing completely. He did say he's not fussed about it anyways. To be honest neither would i be!
Honestly, I got so much stuffs in my room on display that dusting them can be a real chore. I have one display case with door in the house that kept most of the dust out, but majority of my stuffs is left out in the element.
While it is true that dust can still get inside a display case like the detolf, it also help keeping the dust level low inside the case. But if he's okay with it then more power to him.
All I read was no door and my mind was going DUST DUST DUST!

So... Aerial Knights of the Kingdom of Wind
Kingdom of Wind
...Wind....
Sara and Shin descendants maybe?
Wow, that's...pretty mind blowing if it's true.
However,I don't think a single couple is enough to populate a planet. Unless, they found some magical protoculture tech to make that happen.
Great theory though, I love it. I would like to know what happened to Shin and Sara too. (Macross 30 doesn't count. )

Does anyone knows if the new Arcadia display stance works with old Yamato valk? or are they the same as the old Yamato stance? Thanks.Never mind, I figured it out. Thanks for the help everyone.
It's still better than the exploding Arms/shoulders and other issues that plagued the Yamato versions.
Ha! True enough.
-
Finally picked up an IKEA detolf today. Second hand, but unassembled, and missing the door. Works for me as I didn't want a door anyway.
It begins...
Wait, it's missing the door? How are you going to keep dust out man?
-
Why do it 1/35 when 1/60 seems more appropriate?
Why go small when you can go big! but with Bandai's Hi-metal 1/100 line it seems they're going both ways.
And someone already mention about licensing for the 1/60 line. It's probably too troublesome to get the license only to release something that Yamato/Arcadia been releasing the past x amount of years. Fans that wanted at that scale probably got it already.
-
Wonder why it needs a stand in batteroid is it that heavy he can't stand on his own?
Well, at 1/35 scale that thing probably weights a ton, and we don't know how stable it is standing straight up like that.
And it's a display piece at a hobby show. Someone might dump into it and cause it to topple over. It's not going to be a good look for a new product if that happen, people might start pressing the panic button regarding it's stability. So, yeah it's probably for safety reason.
-
and for a pretty darn good price too! looks like only a single bid on it..
People are saving their money for something bigger and nicer...
-
That looks like a really nice display piece even if it doesn't transform.
-
If Arcadia is asking 300 a pop for their valk, that hips better fix itself.
Seriously, great video Yeti. Video like these helped fixed a few of my other valk.
-
And one more of the rear from the presentation.
And one more of the rear from the presentation.
Whoa, a single engine Valkyrie. This is something new. Now, I really can't wait to see how this thing will transform.
Hype level for the SV-262 rising....
Yeah, and those legs are gonna be thick.
I love thick mech.

I call it as Bandai attempting to commit genocide on Macross fan's wallets.

Thanks! I just grabbed one.

I would definitely want some LGBTQ characters that's not tired stereotypes this time around.
Totally agreed. gay character exist in today's anime, but they're served more or less as stereotypical comic relief character. Bobby from Macross Frontier and Fire Emblem from Tiger and Bunny comes to mind. Both of these characters also happens to be black, so I guess there's also a racial element in play too.
Don't get me wrong, i'm not gay or anything or claim to know how people within the LGBT community thinks,but I do believe in human rights, freedom of speech, equality and all that. So, they deserve a place in society (and i guess anime) too.
Even though i'm half joking about making the entire cast of the show gay, I do share your sentiment about wanting a serious and mature gay character (or any character for that matter). But seeing all these reactions above your post, I don't think a lot of people would go for it. Perhaps one day humanity will have the courage to take that step in the future, but right now i'm not seeing that happening. Also, serious and mature story and characters don't really have a place in today mainstream anime. So, that's a double knock against that as well.
Good luck and godspeed.

And the Phantom proves that even a brick will fly, given enough thrust.
But that's another thread.
I hear about a story regarding an Israeli F-15 that was able to RTB with one of its wing missing completely. The pilot pretty much just kept the plane flying through high thrust from his engines.
The pilot got demoted for endangering himself and the base by bringing a bang up F-15 back (he should've ejected), but then got promoted again for bringing the plane back safely. Or so the story goes anyway.
Yeah ok maybe. It was a labour intensive jet - particularly at the end but her personality transcended all that and left her possibly the most celebrated and best loved USN fighter of all time. Those maintenance crews probably get all misty eyed now about working on a "real" machine vs the plug it into the diagnostic computer approach that the bug and super bug have brought to the fleet.
Sorry to go all off topic - I'm a little bit sensitive about the F-14 (and a lifetime member in good standing of the F-14 Tomcat Association to boot)
Back on topic, to quote from the Delta thread..
I think that would be a very cool idea. A Gundam style beam sword or a solid object with pinpoint-barrier style effect maybe?!?
Either way, could be cool!
I think a solid sword with pintpoint-barrier coating would works. The SV-262 can store the sword at the usual place at the shield, and when it pull it out the cross-guard can open up and the blade can extent Esacaflowne style.
A western style blade would really fit with the whole knightly order thing the Draken III boys got going on.
-
Maybe the "twist" this time around is a gay love triangle? Nothing wrong with that, right?
Sure, I'm down for that. It would draw in more female audience anyway.
We want this show to be successful after all.
But if we're getting Yaoi we need some lesbian love for the Walkyrie girls. The main character needs to be bi also.
This is going to a big win for the LGBT community.
Red hair and green hair girl fits the bill for being lesbian, they can both fight over the pink haired girl.

Kinda old news since Luke's Bespin saber turned up in Trailer 2 being handed over Leia. She must pass it on to Finn....
I thought that was the hydrospanner that Han requested since ep 7.

There are babes in these forums discussing toys?!!
No, those are very handsome looking..ah..Valkyrie pilots from the Draken III squadron.

The color scheme on the VF-31 toy that's been shown reminds me an awful lot of this:
A Russian jet with Merica's color? What blasphemy is this?!

I love how in the Delta thread folks are like 'I'm a grown man and this doesn't appeal to me.' And in this thread people see a robot squatting as it gets hit by a pipe and start fart and sodomy jokes.

You know I used to have a theory about the Walkyrie girls being idol singers during the day, and valk pilots during the night to protect Planet Delta from the forces of evil. You know, kind of like Sailor Moon.
Thanks for the correction guys.
