Renato Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Grahamany chance yamato wil rpoducte a separate 1/48 Tv series booster pack?? no. they only released the TV armor with the VF-1J hikaru and the M&M's(but those are colored). if you want the TV FP armor, you got 2 choices....buy a super VF-1J or try and convince someone to sell their TV armor. otherwise you can get the strike armor and not use the strike cannon(though the color isn't the same). The movie arm armour is different to the TV one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connor99 Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 (edited) Rick Randy, just post an ad at the Wanted section of the boards. It's easy and you might get lucky enough to get a reply from someone who might have an extra set of TV FP's they're willing sell. I did that last week and sure enough I'm getting me a set to outfit one of my 1/48 HIKARU 1J's ! Edited April 1, 2005 by connor99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Re: [???] The unknown outcome by the end of '05Posted by: MattAlt (Moderator) Date: March 31, 2005 08:09PM The Aquarion stuff looks decent in toy form (that's definitely one of the prototypes that Kawamori's holding), but the show itself kinda leaves me cold. I find the robots a little "busy" for my tastes. They were handing out DVD "teasers" at the fair, but it isn't long enough to really make up my mind one way or the other. Forget that, though: Yamato had a complete prototype of the 1:48 Armored Valkyrie on display, and it looked spectacular. Too bad I didn't have a camera with me! from toyboxdx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn, that gives them 3 months to release this baby I reckon or at least officially announce it. Assuming that it is a complete prototype.

UN Spacy Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 IF this is indeed true I'm surpised MW hasn't come up with pics. What was the fair this guy from TBDX was referring to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfunk Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 wow, dont know if this was posted yet, didnt feel like reading,,,,anyway,, Looks like the hinge on the missle cover for the arm actually retracts to hide the pin when closed. I think a lot of development is going into this one, more then the FP's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bariaburu Faita Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 IF this is indeed true I'm surpised MW hasn't come up with pics.

Radd Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 Notice the nosecone! I can't see the nosecone, there appears to be a piece of GBP in the way. Anyways, this looks most excellent. I can't wait to nab mine, packaged with a VF-1J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kensei Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 My only dislike is the crotch armour piece. I think they should have made it so that the nosecose must be removed. Minor bitch only, it still looks absolutely fabulous. Multiples it is, and it's not just going to go on a J! I want to see someone makle a Max and Millia version of the armour, stuff the LV.

Air Elijah Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 (edited) Notice the nosecone! I can't see the nosecone, there appears to be a piece of GBP in the way. Anyways, this looks most excellent. I can't wait to nab mine, packaged with a VF-1J. Looks like they decided against the "remove the nose cone" option but I wonder if they will make that nose cone cover removeable so you can chose to go with our without nose cone. The whole armor suit is fracking HUGE. It has to be though since the line art was so slim it left no real room for a valk inside. The chest area shows this most readily. Looking good though. I can't wait to pick a set up! Edited April 3, 2005 by Air Elijah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fugly Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 Holy fart...that's intense. Wowzers, I hope they sell it as a two-pack, ala 1/55 and 1/60...and sepreately, but if they sold one together I'd SO get one...wow. Who'd be up to spray-painting it into a Low Viz. Version? I would... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Posted April 3, 2005 Author Share Posted April 3, 2005 Looking closely at the groin armor it looks like the nosecone cover is a separate piece and not molded as one-piece with the groin armor. You can clearly see the line between the groin armor proper and the additional nosecone cover. I think Yamato have chosen to go both ways with the GBP, you either have the Valk with no nosecone and no nosecone cover, or you keep the nosecone on the Valk and use the nosecone cover. (gawd... is this what life has come to, starring at robots groins ). Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll get a couple of these but it looks so big. It looks like a little valk buying from the Big And Tall Valk store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
