DX Chogokin KC Dark Red version!
-
I'll get YF-19 just for the Myung figure, even if she's SD'ed.
-
Slightly higher reso set of pics from HJweb link.. The whole sound force is a nice surprise. Hopefully won't wait 10 years for the whole team to be released lol. The VF-17T sculpt looks really good!
-
VF-11MAXXL omg omg
-
Super Ostrich is next. Yesss!
-
Scheduled to be released on May 2024. @Raikkonen you got your wish.

I can only think that figures like Dana, Battlepod & the VF-1 Armored add-on have received only very little PO quantities, so notwithstanding KC having their own factory, they are unwilling to go ahead with their internally costed minimum production numbers they have set to avoid tying funds & saddling themselves with stock afterwards. They are probably just wanting to slowly eke more PO's up to an acceptable number before production actually begins. How else can they be soooo far off targeted release date with umpteenth delays? Still, for better or worse at least they continue to iterate & improve on the prototypes whilst waiting for these PO numbers. VF-1 releases seem to be more consistent in meeting promised dates, and as we have seen, they sometimes even produce variants before opening PO's for them. I guess having the valks painted means it's easier to commit a base molding run then spread them out across the different paint variants. This is why we see KC opening PO's for new variants when they haven't sent out previous VF-1 orders yet - they just want to get as much total VF-1 orders as possible before they start producing.

For the earlier Delta shows, Bandai seemed more adventurous with their model kits, giving us schemes that never came out in toy form. For the most recent movie though, nary a SV-303 in sight even for a model kit, so hope is more distant for a Chogokin SV-303.. Lol.. but if looking at the announced parts & the instruction manual @Shawn posted earlier, there will be the normal colour covers included to swap out the clear ones with.

Thanks @seti88
-
Bit of a short downer that the prototype Kakizaki colors were better lol. Watch Bandai announce new HMR to be the VF-19 Kai on this coming weekend's live-stream.

Agree on this. I’m occasionally conflicted on how the Yamato 17 turned out. The 21 had gorgeous Fighter at expense of Battroid, whereas for the 17, Yamato sort of went midway between both modes. I like the 17 in Fighter as it is, but sometimes when I look at the line art the front end / nosecone of the toy is just so different in comparison!

Angel Birds VF-1A & VF-1J: https://www.kitzconcept.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=128 https://www.kitzconcept.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=127 It also looks like KC incorporated their own logo / insignia for the Angel Birds, different from the Chogokin lol..
-
Looks like a fun sequel, pretty excited for this one.
-
Thanks @Shawn. Would love it if Arcadia made a PF version of this.
-
Before heading back to the display cabinet..
-
No premium finish was released. But Arcadia did tease them last year, and we are hoping they follow through with it: https://ameblo.jp/arcadiaac/image-12758085033-15158689129.html

Apprently, a reissue. But looking at the release date, they are most likely old stock? https://www.hlj.com/1-60-scale-macross-mbr-04-mk-vi-destroid-tomahawk-reissue-aca82160-2

Something weird is happening at Mandarake. For longest time the 0S is sitting at Yen 11k, and 0D at Yen12k respectively. Then last week, new available listings of them went up by Yen 1k each, which I assume to be the prices having turned the corner, but then I find it has been retrospectively applied to all the sold listings in their other stores too. For eg, the 0S being at Yen 11k sold at their multiple stores, is now suddenly Yen 12k sold in all of them.

Who knows, maybe when it is eventually released, it will feel very much impressive in hand that the other faults we are seeing now in images will be overlooked. It has certainly happened to me in the past. The fact that is 'not for sale' makes it highly coveted.
