snooze Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 (edited) Does anyone know if Yamato ever plans to make the SV-51 valk that appeared on Macross Zero? I know they've already created the VF-0s but it would be great if they could also make the SV-51 Ivanov or Nora type...that would wrap up the collection for the Zero fans... here's a nice link to this SV-51 Ivanov: http://www.gamerabaenre.com/ivanov.htm Snooze Edited July 5, 2006 by snooze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugimon Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 I don't think there has been an official word... Graham may know but I'm sure he'll be keeping quiet until yamato makes their announcement first. I wouldn't be surprised though. I would love an SV-51 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RT junkie Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Dammit, thought this was a thread for it's announcement..........I knew it was too soon. 413753[/snapback] So did I. Got all excited for nothing. Probably for the better though..... need some time to build up the toy fund again.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CdnShockwave Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 I don't care much for the gerwalk or battroid mode... but I have to say that jet mode is pretty slick. I'd buy one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumdumgai Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Back when they were working on the 1/100 VF-0S, didn't they announce that they were going to do the SV-51? I know that all that got scrapped in favor of the 1/60 VF-0 with perfect transformation. I guess it'll probably all depend on how well the VF-0S and 0A sells, and how well the 19 turns out, since the 19 is a difficult one to get right (and the SV-51 looks pretty damned complicated to convert into toy form with perfect transformation).

Dante74 Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Seems damn near impossible to me to get perfect transformation for the SV-51. If they pull it off I'll get three just to show my gratitude to Yamato. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now look where we are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He first designed the mech with lego which could transform to all three modes. Then he overlapped his pencil drawings designs over a camera picture of the lego model keeping all proportions the same. I believe he did this process for the Monster as well. Anyways the whole process could be seen on his second Designworks book. Yamato shouldn't have too much of a problem except perhaps the way the nose cone bends back for the groin part and nearly dissapears. That and perhaps trying to make sure the toy is structually stable, articulated, and playable. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=10343 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kensei Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 See? A glimmer of hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GobotFool Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 I think with the release of the 19, a design radically different from the classic VF-1 mold, unlike the VF-0, we can be hopeful that we'll see some SV's, 11's and 21's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
