  1. I finally got these printed and they look great with the GokinPlus stands! Thanks to @Anasazi37 -- highly recommended.
  2. Kakizaki is definitely still flying a 1A when he's killed. The only time we see a 1J in DYRL is when the Armored Valkyrie fires off all its missiles in the opening battle. Looking at the screenshot makes me realize that the Hikaru reaction shot of Kakizaki's death doesn't match up at all continuity-wise with the previous shot of Kakizaki's death on the monitor display. You'd think the cockpit would be more damaged based on what we see on the monitor. But hey I guess continuity never stopped gruesome anime deaths before.

    Hi-Metal R

    It comes with the Kakizaki release. You can see it in the images in the tweet that @treatment posted earlier, both on the image on the back of the box and in the interior contents.
  4. Ah, smart thinking on the super/strike stand adapter vs non super/strike adapter. Very exciting to see these coming along!
  5. @Anasazi37 if you ever decide to print these up I'd be first in line for two!
  6. Slightly off topic, but related question: I have a 1/48 Yamato VF-1. As I'm sure you all know, the 1/48 Yamato VF-1's did not come with the part that attaches to the valkyrie so it could be mounted on the stand: these were later included in the first Yamato display stand. Outside of buying one of those old display stands, is there anywhere I can buy just the adapter piece that attaches to the valkyrie? I've tried looking at shapeways and other 3d printing sites but haven't had any luck.
  7. Up at Luna Park as well. ¥27,500: https://www.lunapark.store/product-page/dx-chogokin-vf-25-messiah-valkyrie-worldwide-anniv-japan-version
  8. Agreed, have low expectations for this one... but at least they understand that it's not Cowboy Bebop without Yoko Kanno.
  9. Cool idea. I can see the 1J possibly working as well.
  10. Wow, never thought I'd actually see this subtitled. Looking forward to it!
  11. I also found the shift in Char's character from Zeta to CCA to be weird. I remember a really old gundam site arguing that Char actually went insane between Zeta/CCA. I know Char was supposed to be in ZZ originally before the CCA movie got approved and wonder if this shift had something to do with that.
  12. I also prefer the red/black color scheme -- I have the Hikaru DX -- but there's no denying that Focker's yellow/black is the definitive VF-1S, both in-universe and among fans.
  13. Was the concert footage originally planned for the end of DYRL though? The story I thought I remembered was DYRL was supposed to end with a Minmei performance but they ran out of production time. The SDF-2 taking off and heading into space I do recall being planned as an epilogue for the TV series, like you say.
  14. Wow, the shading on that Hikaru VF-1A is amazing!
  15. Like many others, have been using them for 20+ years. Never a problem. Over those 20+ years, I've lived in multiple countries, and delivery has never been a problem.
