Swoosh

Great pic. I really wish the gunpod were the correct color though, then it would look even better.

I see you painted on grey lines.

Sharp eye!!

Great shot!

Thanks, your Flickr album is amazing!!

This is Animation Special

A few iPhone quick snap:

1/72 2nd Edition, this is what everything begin!!!

Yamato 1/60, the second generation

Arcadia 1/60, the thrid generation

Done some Panel lines and stickers

Just pick up mine, before transforming it, just but visual inspection, first problem I got is the head unit slightly mis-aligned to its neck, see if I can unscrew it and move it back to center.

Now I going to transform it the first time and see if there are any QC issue.

It seems banking is the way to go, it save a lot of display space!

Ta da!

BTW can't read Japanese, August 2014 for pre-order date or for release date?

Not too far away!!!

Give me a release date!!!

You want a jointed arm that fits on the Bandai SMS base?

That's a great idea, because renewval Bandai SMS is already painted, then a complete Yamato/Arcadia base with Kite logo with looks good together!!!

One more day and it will be mine!!!

I'm hoping more for a "no-frills" version. Just the fig, gun-pod, 1x Isamu pilot fig and FAST packs at 200 USD. Hell, they can even keep the FAST packs if it helps lower the price.

Talks about milking the mold, I want this paint scheme, just the gunpod, random pilot figure and no FAST pack is needed:

Worst of all it is made-to-order which means getting replacements would be harder than retail release of a valk.

I think YF-19 is not made to order, unlike VF-4G.

Pew Pew Pew!!!

Gamu Toys review is up!!!

Thank's to OTM, MW even has a FB fan page !!!!

Didn't pre-order it but I want one now... hope I can grab one this weekend...

on the toysdaily review the chinese caption says waterslide decal...and that the decal sheet on the new release is bigger than old one. hope it's correct.

People in HK love to says decals when they actually mean stickers

So this means water slide and stickers right?

I think he got 2 stickers sheet by factory mistake.

As far as new Valkyrie molds go, yes. The next is the VF-0D next year.

Otherwise, there are various Wonderfest items, the mimi SFD Macross kit, and the possible re-issuse of older Valks.

The first repaint of this mold could be the MF version with SMS FAST Pack bundle.

In hand pics from Toysdaily:

what's that stand you're using in the last pic?

My VF-25F turns into a floppy mess once the Armored pack is on

No stand is used, it can hold the balance just like that , I think it is because the weight distribution is better with some action pose, too back heavy if just standing straight.

I had just opened my 25F armor pack last Sunday, took some pics:

I love it!!!

What is this? A new YF-19?

I guess it is.

I got the VF-27 with fast pack last week, the fast pack attach much more secure than those on VF-25 V2.

Just got the VF-27 new version last week.

Looks really nice!!!

Edit: Ok, may be just the angle, vertical fin look large enough from the rear shot.
