I don't know, for the 25th anniversary I think Yamato should do the remaining TV valks. . . Both Max and Kakizaki's VF-1A in TV colors in 1/48 scale. At least since they've scraped the idea of the two seaters in 1/48. I mean if they are having SO much trouble with any other valks, just stick to what works. But really come on Yamato, bite the bullet and make the two seaters: stretch those molds out a little more. . . Pack the boxes full of goodies not HK air. . . Then use the time releasing those to perfect and tool the 1/60 YF-21 to be a badass follow up. Hell I'm sure we would all like to see a little VF-4, VF-5000, VF-17 and the VF-9 or something new. Think how well just those will do if they are designed and put together well.

That looks to be the case, maybe I'll pick up another one. . .

I was thinking the same thing. Graham how soon till we see one of those awesome previews?

Amen to that Bro

Just cool your jets. . . I started this thread to see if any other members were having the same issues with the newer toys. Not to be a witch hunt or flame session at the owner of the website who just happens to get the inside dope on most things Yamato plans. Who knows they might have screwed Graham over last minute and chose to go with ABS. Or, (dare I say it) the almighty POM idea wasn't all it was cracked up to be. So far as I can recall he never seemed to try pull a fast one on us before, so why start now especially on an item as hotly debated as this. I don't really see the benefit of knowingly passing bad info to members on a site that he pays for and enjoys as much as rest of us here do. Also, I have yet to see Yamato put up a sales banner/link to garner/weasle our hard earned dollars out of our pockets. Sure he may give good previews/reviews for their toys, but that is because he does get to see them sort of in the making. What comes out of the factory for the final result is anyone's ball game. Name one member here who would not want to be in his shoes, be it with Yamato, Bandai, Hasegawa, Hasbro, Takara, Takatoku or any other company that could produce good versions of these Macross toys. You too would be stoked to have the inside scoop and be pissed if it look like you were being BS'd in front of fellow fans that you respected and respected you. The choice is yours to buy or boycott. . . But don't try and light a fire under his shorts cause he didn't give an answer quickly or tell you what you wanted to hear. Just stay on topic and leave the flames at the door. . .

Could this be the start of an unfortunate exodus for Yamato products??? Who knows???? (duh-duh-duuuumm. . . . .) lol But seriously to each his own, and sad to hear about your change of heart. . .

Zent Power Armour!!!!!!!? Hell yeah I'd buy three of those. . .
-
True 'dat, it does suck major ass. But so far I haven't seen anybody else offering them for free either. And I think if anyone had seen it elswhere for free by now they should put up a note on it.

You have to contact them directly, then order the parts. . .

How about Starcom, or even Bravestar?.....

From the look of it all the valks are finally getting to their home bases. . .

Sucks to hear about the trouble you went to. . . But let's keep the constructive info coming guys.
-
But think of it piggy-back on the 19. . . .ohohohhohohohohoh! Yeah I know overkill, but just picture it.
-
Yeah, but you gotta admit it looks even more lethal in black. . . Hell, you could mod it with recessed gunports and rename it "Ghost Raven" Think about it, how cool would it be to fly into a dogfight use it (attached) to down a few bogeys. . . Then activate the "Raven" A.I., auto-maping enemy radar sigs to it. Pull a cobra manuver, gettison the drone, sicking it on enemy fighters or have it hang tight on your wing and watch it do what it do. . . AWESOME!!!!!

I've said it before I will say it again. . . The VF-2 HAS to be made in to a toy. If there is a young upstart toy company out there looking for a hot first seller, this is it. . . Do not pass this up you will make serious cash anywhere you sell it. It just has that hardass toy, but easy to transform look to it. Hands down a true follow up to the VF-1. Hell, they could do a knock-off of it and make the fans happy. I would easily buy four or five without a second though. Just make it in a good scale (1/60, 1/55, 1/72), prefect change and of strong plastic.
