Does some one still have pictures of the monstrosity of battroid that Toynami showed many years ago? Around the time of the MPC VF-1s. I have been looking for those pictures on google but so far none.

Holy!

315 for an unopened Legioss?

I still have my Eta unopene waiting for the Tread. If it happens to come super expensive I might have to let go the Legioss too.

Knew the dude and the end reminded me of some one. And seems people is already talking about it

Do you think the thrusters might light up, or is that just some weird coloring?

In the video says it is clear parts. It might light up.

At 15:14

With so many in coming I just wonder which ones will be TWE.

So a reissue but with the ball jointed head and whiter color of the standalone 1J release?

Extra hands seem to be tv hands. And a extra head with the grey visor.

Does this mean they will reissue the VF-1S Hikaru or is it just a set of clear strike / super parts?

As the card specifies "Strike Valkyrie" this could be a bundle, like the reissued VF-1J with the GBP.

Holy. I'm definitely in for Kaki, Max and that GBP revival.

I still have to pick up my VF 0S from the post office to inspect it. Since this will be my very first Hi Metal toy I want to see if the line fills me I don't really like small scale figures. But as my collection is growing it could be nice to add small missing figures from other lines like that VF-0D and the Max's and Kakizaki's VF-1

Thought this was an illustration at first!

Finally finished! Had a blast panel washing and some decals a task not too overwhelming thanks to its pocket size.🤪

It would be nice to have downsized payload for battroid mode to improve a bit the possibility. Like those that Revoltech did long ago. 

Found the FB page.

No progress since early September

I think the KC implemented a joint like that on the newer versions, makes you wonder if they’ll ever release a DYRL 1S in that line 🤔. 

Seems to be back in stock at HLJ

I understand the replacement wings for battroid mode (to give that tucked up look), but why the other two sets?

It is only 3 sets of wings. The short ones for battroid, and the 2 for fighter, one with pylons and the other without pylons. Out of the box the figure has non installed.

My two just got here. As expected, the box length is because the base of the stand is included in the main tray, though there is still a small sub tray for wings and part of stand pieces.

 

The included "divider background" isn't just a solid color like many previous releases but has some schematic style drawings included. 

 

 

 

That back drop looks very sick. I might have it framed once I get mine. Out of Valkyries I don't have any art or other stuff around the house.

Such a big box for small bird.

Box is pretty much OK.

This were BIG boxes

Way back to the V.1. late Yamato VF-1s

No, I am referring to the covers/tanks(?) on the topside fuselage, so you have a slot for topside armaments and ghost wingtips... explained by @jenius as per ye olde yamato with ghost...😁

oh yes, i that's one thing the HMR will have as an advantage(?) being a parts-former....

i dont mind arcadia's coat tails though ...😁

I think inclusion of a ghost may tip that equation somewhat. A ghost + reactive armor pack HMR would fit in nicely as a premium bandai release.

But yes, i note the 1st HMR 1J armored was a combo pack release and so far for vf-1 (M&M, booby duck), supers have been included too. Rolling the dice on it.

Yep those are fuel tanks. I knew I read it some where

This from the Macross Mecha Manual

In the final episode Shin ejects all missile pods, the booster and you can see how those tanks get ejected too

Who knows? Maybe that hole in the hip can still be used for the Reactive Armor? Assuming that they're going to make it. 

 

To tell the truth, IMO, the adapter is quite odd or horrible if the hole can't be used for something else. I haven't seen the adapter for the Arcadia VF-0 but even Yamato have a prettier solution.

That yellow-marked?

It ain't a mystery...

Totally missed that one.

Removable fuselage covers.

HMR Ghost/Reactive armor/both packs confirmed! .....probably? 😅😁

All right folks....bring on HMR VF-0A/0D and SV-51 next!!

oops.... we are getting hikaru's 1S next...sigh...

 

Aren't those things just conformal fuel tanks? Maybe is just a gimmick.

But there is a mysterious hole near the leg intake.
