Technically, a gyrfalcon is a raptor...

Heh. A western millitary enthusiast's nod that it is in no way a F-22/F-35 inspired design lol...

"Meanwhile, PLA Navy Rear Admiral Zhang Zhaozhong said in a speech in Xiamen on Nov. 17 that China's reverse engineering still has its limitations, and that it will take the country another few years to achieve a breakthrough in developing its own engines."

Yup, not too subtle.

Very nice Saburo. Now you need the VF-19 advance and do a reshoot!

Very nice pics everyone.

I wonder what they would say if it was designated J-22 or J-35 just to piss people off. Is that a Chinese raptor on the tailfin? Nevermind, it's called a gyrfalcon.

Looks like same as the vf-27w/supers but green. The hip bars by the crotch look like the newer one the older one is higher on the crotch plate.

Thank you IXTL for the pics and links! The destroids are a must have!

That stand looks similar to the one the YF-30 fighter mode had when it was first shown to the public although the base was a little different. I wonder why it wasn't released to the public.

That left wing booster in rear battroid pic looks like it's splitting from the bottom. This coming year is gonna be an expensive year! Hopefully they spread out the release dates to cushion the blow.

Wow. They must be really out to make a statement to release all these at once. Now if they can release Brera's ghosts.

Heh! I doubt this is legit.

Darn it! Neverending! In a good way.

Is that VF-171ex gonna be a bundle set and is Bandai gonna sell those stands? Kinda looks like the one used to display the YF-30 fighter mode and Arcadia type stands.

About this much:

See nothing. Exactly. Zero chance. If not, there will be a lot of unhappy folks here in the forums!

Is this one? http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/item_s-1863482.html.

edit: nvm, out of the price range stated above.

Awesomeness!

Thank you Tochiro!

Could anyone tell me what is this event? Is it like a mingling thing? Curious as there are two different dates for different ages. Also, the Sheryl Birthday food and drink items look good, I like the cake set and galaxy burger!

Also ineresting to see the leg swivel just below the intakes in tandem with the forward bend articulation, would like to know how they did that.

Probably like a flipped version of the vf-171 upper leg parts or YF-30 type and moved the swivel point above the knee into the upper thigh.

Edit: Nevermind, I just typed a different way of what you just put. Haha!

New releases, a exhibition of Macross collection and a 1/1 scaled Yf-29 something (image or mock up) it's in the VF-19 advance thread too.

Newest releases, exhibition of Macross collection, Life sized YF-29 image, Sheryl's Birthday,some kind of game for prizes, and talk show?

I don't think I've ever seen that before. Can it hold it with the gunpod attached?

Unfortunately I don't think so.

I don't know if it helps but here are some pics with the renewal flight adapter.

Renewal adapter.Rear leg support is longer and different angle Length reference. The area by the hip is too wide to fit.

Peg slots are a bit narrow But fit in the crotch slot

Very nice!

So that pic is the T-2 Mr. K was mentioning?

Still could use a non-renewal VF-27 adapter. There is no way to put it on ANY stand, as-is.

The only one that'll work are the Bandai Variable Stands (Images from anymoon.com. Thank you Jenius!):

Something like that for the front but thinner profile and a shorter renewal stand type rear bracket. Or, you can make a tab in piece that'll fit up inside the space between the crotch plate.

That's a lot of goodies!

Here we go!

Yup! Thanks to you Scream Man! She's in good company:
