Dat Pinche Haro! Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 yeah...i think they're just plain lazy...that accurately describes the original 1/60 scale VF-1... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted July 30, 2006 Author Share Posted July 30, 2006 No need to panic guys. I can say with 120% certainty, that the VF-0A has not been scaled up to 1/48 and neither have the legs been redesigned to be detachable....LOL! It's safe to say that Image Anime is either a) being lazy, b) talking out of their collectives asses, c) have no idea about the products they are selling.

Dobber Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 Or the old 1/100 Vf-0. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugimon Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 I was checking out image anime and stumbled across this description of the VF-0A. Detatchable legs? We're not talking a repeat of the 1/60 VF-1 leg fiasco, are we? Or is that description innaccurate? 420860[/snapback] the only fiasco I can see, is your post.

Dante74 Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 Image anime; Another online toy vendor that's rather expensive. IMO Look at this, taken from the site. 1/60 VF0A Regular price: $225.00 Sale price: $179.99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeta Otaku Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 I order from Image Anime often (mostly Gundam stuff and for next day delivery for standard rates...) They DO know what they're selling... on the phone at least. Who ever does the web page is a dolt though. Great guys that work at the store. I had ordered the Super Stealth, they accidently shipped out the non-FP Stealth and called to let me know. Did an exchange and only charged me the cost of the regular Stealth as an apology. Hmm... I still have that guy's number... maybe I'll call to let him know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CdnShockwave Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Well, that's a huge sigh of relief, thanks Graham. Image Anime's always been fairly good to me. My bro got a killer deal on the TF reissue God Ginrai. And yeah, speedy delivery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

connor99 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Man, this one's just looking too damn good to pass up. I was able to ignore the 0S when it came out, but when I saw the pics for this lil' baby, I knew it was gonna be hard to have to miss out on buying it. Thanks a lot for the info, guys !

ghostryder Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Just ordered mine from samurai-monkey. Can't wait. Jeez, this thread needs a bump, why is the VF-0S getting more attention? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowe Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Just hit me when I look at Dante74's pic that for those who missed out the 1/48 LV I valk, the VF-0A may be your next closest thing if you like the grey scheme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 By the way, I just noticed on Dante's pic (not Dante's Peak), that the feet on the 0a seems to have a lock at the ankle, unlike the 0s (look at the clearance between the calves and the feet on both battroids). Hey Graham, can you confirm this? Is this an improvement over the 0s? Thankyou. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Graham, can you confirm this? Is this an improvement over the 0s? Thankyou. 422544[/snapback] Hey, good eye! I know on the -0S the only way for the feet to lock was to butt up against the lower leg section. Maybe they just tightened the ankle swivel to enable the feet to support the weight of the battroid at an angle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kensei Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 (edited) I seriously don't mind it being this colour....to me the VF-0A was always grey... I actually had to break out M0 to watch again. I seriously couldn't tell the difference, at least not in ep2. EDIT: 2000th Post! Promoted to New Edward's Test Pilot! Thanks Dante.

Dat Pinche Haro! Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 anyong remembers this promo pic for the hasegawa model promo? i was going thru my things and found it...it looks simular to the one current paint scheme but it's using blues instead of greys for the colors...

kensei Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 (edited) I reckon and touch of an airbrush here and there in the same manner as the 1/48 LVI, with some panel-lining and voila! A classic. You got to have guts though if you don't paint much. Edited August 8, 2006 by kensei Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
