    Oooh. Not bad. Now I can't help but think more of Jetfire. Hehehe. But to be honest, I kind of like it. If Hikaru's nosecone tip is painted grey, it would've been perfect. Does Millia's shade of red almost the same as Hikaru's? Thanks for this one, sh9000!

    Nah. Have to control purchases this time. Cool. Cool. Looking forward to it.

    I know, right. Hahaha! But I have to make sure it's manageable: VF-1J, VF-2SS, (teased) VF-4. Even though would love to have a set of Destroids, I'll just stick with the Valks. Also, is it ok to ask for a favor since you're the only one who has 'most' of it. Is it ok if you post a pic of Hikaru's VF-1J in all forms wearing Millia's Super Packs? Thanks in advance!
  4. What other versions? Is there another company that's making one? Or you're referring to different model and color schemes (e.g. VF-1S, VF-1A, Roy color, Max color, CF color, etc.)?

    Thanks Seti! Well, technically it's 3 since I PO'ed 2 VF-2SS. I'll just decide later on what to do with the second VF-2SS. Hahaha! So true, JVM! Go get one now. And just worry later.

    I just did. Bought a VF-1J at HLJ. Hehehe. Hope it looks good besides the VF-1J since VF-1J figure has more panel lines than the sleek looking VF-2SS.

    Tsk. Tsk. I should've closed my browser. After this relaxing and easy PO experience, it made me buy a VF-1J TV too at HLJ. Oh man...

    FYI. That 'split' looking claw is there for Gerwalk mode. As per lineart courtesy of Macross Mecha Manual.

    Good thing my alarm set off just right in time. I can't help but PO'ed two at AmiAmi when it showed up. Happy 4th of July everyone!
  11. I'm assuming the size of the battery wasn't printed on some panel within the battery compartment?
  12. Itasha rules!

    It's true that Bandai's listing is almost 100% accurate. However, it was mentioned on the description text that included is some part 'reproducing of the gunpod when it's removed'. And this is just based on what it's being translated too. And here's the actual line where it was mentioned in nihonggo: ガンポッドの取り出し時を再現するためのパーツが付属。If anyone can translate that better than google or Tamashii's own translation tab in the bottom right corner, please verify the part included. And no, there's no need for any swappable canopy/heatshield parts since the nosecone area slides back under the chest where the canopy will be resting behind that gray part on the chest. Same with the previous Evolution Toy VF-2SS. Right now, it's still early to speculate on how's and the why's regarding this figure. Only thing they showed us is photo and release date. For sure, more info will coming up once they put this beautiful figure on their Hi-Metal R Special Web Page.
  14. I'm assuming too that you misread what I wrote where I got it from.
  15. Ofcourse we will! VF-1's is the only business for Arcadia. Period.
  16. Now I'm curious as to what everyone will say about this weathered version? Does it look like it's being Photoshopped?
  17. Hey Acemillion. Try to PM @jenius regarding this since he reviewed most of the Toynami releases. Maybe he knows what size.
  18. Curious. How big is the 1/35 Legioss against a 1/60 VF-1 side-by-side?
  19. No worries. You're welcome sir!

    You lose. It's the 1% that's going to make you buy this one. And not the 99% of avoiding it. You can bet that Evolution Toys will go back to their drawing board once Bandai releases this so that they can reverse-engineer it and slap a 'Renewal/ver.2' on their 1/60 release and charge us Y38000 again. We hate you now for checking on this thread, Duymon. That means we have another contestant for PO night. From the looks of it, those tabs is somehow good enough since this is just a small toy. Bandai's tabs looks wider and bigger for a 1/100 figure compared to the Evolution's 1/60 figure. Gorgeous, right? I'm no HM-R collector, but I'm really really going to nab one of this. Yup, me too. Hoping for two. But if I can actually nab one during PO madness, I'll be happy. Looking forward to see you on PO night, Mr. Cheng! Oh, you can really bet Evolution Toys will do another round of this one after Bandai's release. IIRC, there was no indication that the gunpod can be attached in Fighter mode based on lineart.
  21. I agree. But I don't think of this as hideous. Let's not forget that this was being 'mass-produced' so they're following some procedural methods of doing it. Once they deviate from that same procedural method it only means one thing - the price of this one from producing it will cost more back then so basically you will pay more.
  22. Great photos! I'm on the classic default theme so I didn't notice there was a text above the link. Sorry, old guy here. I just like the white background minimalist look. I added background color to see what it says.
