My bad, there IS a Hikaru VF-1S weathering special to be released in May 2010. Appears to be an exclusive.

And I also found this regarding the 1/210,000... ah no, that's the price ... regarding the 1/2000 SDF-1:

compare them with the super pack on please...

Actually, since I'm selling the blue super parts I didn't open the plastic tray, sorry

With a darker background the color difference is not so obvious...

Later today I'll try to take pics in battroid mode...

I imagine how blue the tint is will depend largely on the warmth of your lighting but I would love to see some comparison shots of movie version next to TV version.

EDIT - that request isn't directed at anyone in particular, just anyone who may own both.

Here you go...

I think it's definitely not better than the original release, but it appears that the crotch lock is a bit tighter (maybe it''s just a matter of time before it gets loose). Some details like the intakes are painted in metallic dark gray which definitely look better than the original, and the hands are also in the same color.

I'm actually thinking of selling the Super Parts since I'm not so fond of the new color "based on the movie CG" (as it's stated on the box)....

Is the 25f light blue?

I second the question... any changes in the VF-25 besides the Tornado pack?

Was the release date for the next movie revealed?

Thanks to those that have posted the reviews btw

Another look at the movie's "Tornado Pack" for the VF-25:

A new pic of the DX VF-27:

And I just realised that the Tornado Pack DX VF-25F is also there

A new pic of the DX VF-27:

The new VF-25F's stand has the SMS letters in yellow

What NewType issue was that, that had the new delta wing fastpack???

If I remember correctly it's no. 11, released on the 10th of this month.

Overdrive's latest Web Mail states the following:

We have started taking orders for the VF-11C with Super Packs and the the two VF-22 versions(Max And Millia). As the first run of all three items will be limited to 1000 pieces each there is a posibility that all three may sell out fairly early.

I think the same was said for Gamlin's VF-22S... and I haven't seen them being sold out in many places... or has there been a new production run?

I thought we were saving these kind of threads for April 1st

Wow, scheme looks really fresh! I must say the paint application looks very natural. did you have to take it apart before paint application?

yup, took apart everything so that the masking worked without a problem.

First I had to use primer to cover the red stripes, then apply the blue color.

might post some more later. oh yeah, hikaru ex-gear wins.

:edit: want to add a red stripe, and need to find my DYRL? Hikaru in helmet to complete the image.

NICE!! the head is from the CM's Macross line?

hahaha! so far so good GGemini

wish you the best of luck on your brave adventure!

I really like the light blue highlights GGemini!

Thanks!

Here are the rest of the pics... first, this is where the idea came from (paint used : intermediate blue US Navy)

in these pics you can see the actual color, which is a bit darker than what appeared in the pic from my last post
