Future Yamato 1/48 Color Schemes


Crazy Canuck II

Recommended Posts

Now that Yamato is going to release a somewhat obscure color scheme like the VF-1A Angelbirds, it got me wondering just what might be possible. The inevitable result being a list of candidates. Obviously some are more likely than others, but I thought I'd post what I thought was possible all be it in some cases very very unlikely. I also thought some of you could help fill in all the obscure TV and DYRL schemes I missed.

It is in DYRL during the final battle.

I just want to see the phrase "Thunder Hummers" in large bold letters on a Yamato box. That'd be good for a larf.

Seeisslee though, I can see the VF-2 recolours a lot more clearly in my oh-so-accurate crystal ball than any kinda retool. Especially that Platypus. I mean, it'd look like it'd be wearing adult diapers in Battroid mode. But I guess that "depends" on one's perspective. :)

I'd like to see one like this scheme:

or alternately, since it could be considered 'canon,' how about the heretofore unseen "Navy gray" officers' 1J; it's like Max or Milia's, only w/gray as the primary color?

oh yeah--the colors on this Angel Bird are off; and can anyone translate what the little captions say?

let's put it this way,these forums(MW) are great research for them(Yamato) we know it,so give them polls about what we want,they see it and respond,maybe not always in the best way, but hell different is good

I know it would be easier for me to put in a sig but I'll say it in this thread:

my wishlist: (assuming yamato care about what we think on MW for a sec)

just give me a tv Hikaru VF1-S (slightly greyish in color) with tv FP. (in the spirit of the tv max and milia super valk pack ie no strike cannon)

Maybe as a little bonus we get a Misa and minmay figure to go with it and we can have her in the grip of the vf1 hands as hikaru time and time again rescues her/them in gerwalk mode. I think that is an iconic part of the tv series - where he uses the gerwalk to go in and rescue by holding one of them in ther hand while he is in gerwalk. :D

If they want: they could just release a tv version of the VF-1S with no FP and roy in his tv flightsuit. (just like above but with no FP, and Roy instead of hikaru)

So for all those tired of the DYRL Roy reissues, this would sorta be fresh as it appears in the series, isn't non-canon release, (for those who aren't interested in alternate paintschemes) and would be recognisable to lots of people. It's about time they gave us a new 1S release. (enough with the 1j and 1a for a while)

A VF-1A painted in green to match Zentraedi uniforms/ships, complete with tampo printed Zentraedi markings and a separate sheet of Zentraedi insignia stickers/decals, to simulate a Valkyrie captured and operated by micronized Zentraedi malcontents/rebels.

Now with limited edition super special Exploding Action! Take it out of the box, it explodes! Display it with your other valks - it explodes! Do absolutely anything with it, and it will explode!

I like to order the TV Max/Mirillia two seater that they got married in: "VF-1D Virgin Road". ^_^

When I have that, I'll die happy.

In that case, why don't they just put a Garland in the box? It's guaranteed to break into pieces anyway! :lol:

No I don't. It's in the compendium. It's basically a VF-1A/J with an S head.

The difference with the VF-1S and VF-1s other than the VF-1X is the engine block.

Expect a brown S head on a CF body.
