The matte metallic red is unexpected, but I like it. To me it looks better than the photoshopped pics they used for PO, and now I'm thinking of putting in an order, but then I remembered ThreeZero is also coming out with a 1/72 VF-1.. So, Dana figure to be out in April 2023. Rick in orange jumpsuit to be released this month itself?
-
Sometimes little figures can surprisingly fun..
-
Thanks @Angesdad & @no3Ljm Is it modded? Just it being able do an A-stance makes a whole world of difference and gives it a more modern look.

Revisiting the Sentinel Legioss..

Wasn't very happy with a previous SV-262Hs pic, so went ahead and re-did it. I'm not familiar with in-universe mechanics, but it appears the 'eyes' for all the valks in Delta are self-illuminated? This as compared to Frontier, whereby although some scenes show the eyes / lens light up, it is more akin to external light reflecting off them instead..
-
The last of the Evangelion trio.. selfie time!
-
I am pretty satisfied with the HMR, but DX is always welcome! Part of me though, wish Bandai would continue the Macross 2 HMR line. Really want them to do a VF-2JA, and eventually a Zentran VF-XX as something different. Hate to think that Macross 2 valks are looking to be on a long hiatus yet again..
-
Couple of leftover pics from when I was messing with the HMR VF-2SS not long ago... One other thing I like about the cockpit canopy, is that although it is green tinted, it is still quite transparent and hence can make out the details within, rather nicely for its scale. Take that Chogokin 31!
-
I don't really build model kits, but I can imagine how amazing this find is.. what a time machine experience.
-
Today's figure is quite a fair bit older than CM's. An Arii 1/6 Minmay...
-
Never watched Evangelion... but just like ladies in tight pilot suits.
-
Ah gotcha ... with the head, and shape of wings hanging off the back, the whole VF-31F look just gives me moth vibes overall.
-
The thin body & limbs sort of mirrored Kawamori’s own fashion sense I guess? Lol.. VF-25 was still very acceptable to me when I first came across it, but with the VF-31, just that big hump on the back throws the overall proportions off quite a bit. Its not really back kibble in TF toys kind of way, but it sure looks a lot like it… Not sure what you mean, but is it regarding the crotch flap? I think I inadvertently bumped it out too far whilst moving the toy into place for the shot, & didn’t notice until well into processing.
-
From a lot of angles, VF-31 have the most insectoid body shape, but the bug-eyed 31F head completes the look..
-
They are really oldies but goldies. Molding isn't very sharp by today's standards, but that's ok because when we first watched TV/DYRL Macross, chances was it was all in its grainy glory on whichever media it was in then, so these figures kinda followed in that vein.
-
Just appreciating an old CM's Minmay...
-
Yeahh it is a loose reference to Initial D.. I loved it too, it was what started my love for driving at that time, and my cars are still manual / stickshift-only till this day. Stage 4 was prolly peak Initial D for me; Stage 5 was pretty forgettable though. I agree 3-cylinders are interesting for those cars in that era. Because 3-cylinders were almost exclusive to very small cc engines, they were always installed on very small & lightweight rides that are slowly becoming extinct in today's environment. It's a good thing this engine configuration still being developed on & soldiers on in top applications such as the GR Yaris.
-
Perhaps there are fly-through jet wash & wax tech by Frontier’s timeline onwards. But yeah Zero has such a lengthy production time. Budget non withstanding, they could add as many details as they wanted, and now thinking of it, it’s kinda crazy to wait half a year for each short episode to release, especially in today’s world of whole season dump in streaming.
-
Now that I think of it, are the Mac Zero valks about the only weathered color valks shown on screen? Those in Frontier or Delta don’t seem to be..
-
FD3S legend..
-
This would be a great scheme.. and I'm optimistic about it seeing Bandai love doing repaints.

When your Persona has its own persona..

I just find it somewhat amusing both 0Ds coincidentally have same blue, if Arcadia's was supposedly wrong.. But I'm not hung up about it myself, it's not different enough to my eyes to consider it bad. Yeah here's hoping Bandai releases those variants Arcadia would not.
