vf-31 siegfried WIP: Alternate Weapons Pods for VF-31
Sanity is Optional replied to Sanity is Optional's topic in The Workshop!
Now that I think about, I guess I have seen the gun arm-mounted in battroid/gerwalk rather than the typical in-hand in any mode other than fighter. -
Arcadia is going to release an Ivanov (and presumable Nora, eventually) SV-51. No release date yet, but it is confirmed.

https://distill.io/ I have the plugin running on a computer I leave on, and set email alerts for anything I'm trying to catch (like Chogokin and Metal Composite figures).

Scratch built and non-articulated. -
Well, enough people aren't thrilled that it's retailing ¥4,000 or so below MSRP and is still easily available. I like mine though, and wish they'd release another so I can have multiple in different poses (without having multiple Keiths).

Maybe a pearl coat on top of a transparent bronze?

Looking good Xigfrid, looking forward to seeing how it looks outside of CAD. -
Oh, they're in-scale. Zentradi themselves, however have wildly varying sizes. Note that they're the same size as a VF-1, but also the same size as a VF-25, and also fit in a regult.
-
I'd suggest getting one of the Tomytec ones next HLJ sale, or possibly through Mandarake. Much more reasonable prices than retail.

Frontier VF-25 :: Renewal, Super, Tornado, Armored. HELP!
Sanity is Optional replied to Arkham's topic in Toys
Huh, he wasn't when I bought my Ozma from Mandarake a few months back in March (20,000 vs 25,000). Looks like he is now though. -
Frontier VF-25 :: Renewal, Super, Tornado, Armored. HELP!
Sanity is Optional replied to Arkham's topic in Toys
The RVF 25+super/ghost is a great looking setup, to me at least. Couple things to note. The wings won't fold all the way up in battroid due to the dish, but it still looks good (kinda locke a rocket-pack). Not strictly perfect transformation due to an extender that's needed between the arm and the shield due to the fin. -
Frontier VF-25 :: Renewal, Super, Tornado, Armored. HELP!
Sanity is Optional replied to Arkham's topic in Toys
The only problem with the above is that the tornado packs are exclusively for the 2 most expensive VF-25s: Alto and Michael. Ozma and Luca are a decent amount cheaper. -

The traditional placement of under the arms would be analogous to the way it's mounted on the pod, which I can't replicate due to space. I'll pull out the calipers and see if I can bash something out tomorrow. On a separate note, got the FED printed missile doors in from shapeways, which means I now have all the parts to assemble. Going to wait until the 31a shows up though so I can properly match the paint colors. That said, I got the fit good enough I managed a snap-fit: -
No leg missile packs, but it will come with the Drakkens! (The above is a joke)
-
It's up for pre-order on the usual websites, has been for a while. I've got 2 on order, probably going to ditch the one from HLJ.

That's what he, in fact, did according to the Japanese text.

3D Print replacement parts for Yamato 1/48's & 1/60
Sanity is Optional replied to pezley's topic in Toys
Probably, but not sure they'd be very durable out of most of the plastics available. Even the Acrylate material might wear over time. -
I know I'll end up getting one, the only question on my mind is if I want to buy it straight off, or wait until after release and try and save some money (assuming it goes down like the other 262).

Yeah, that's my next one to tackle, after I work up a bracket for attaching the rifle to one of the wing hardpoints that is. Looking at the book images, I think the cannons are meant to retract straight back rather than in from the sides, but I'm definitely planning to get it as flush as possible, it looks like the custom one pictured didn't actually retract all the way. -
They really did some cramming with the packaging on those.
-
The re-done scheme might explain the wait to release the Ba version? WTF on the 31 with Drakkens though, there's not hardpoints available for that at all.
-
Yeah, though if everything is still available they have let me cancel and re-order everything as one. Going to try asking if they can add an item to an existing order, as there's a Gurren Lagann that I'd like to ship with my premium SDF-1.
