recon Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 That is good news on the booster pack... now I may have to go back on the whole "wait for 2nd release thing..." Will still wait for the reissue or 2nd version as a precaution, it never hurts to see wait till the reviews are out cos you are paying a premium price for them.

recon Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 haha you cant blame me for it due to yamato records for not churning a perfect 1st version variant without any QC or design problems. Of cos i would love yamato to prove me wrong on the upcoming 1st version of SV-51, cos it is really a torment to see many other MWers enjoying theirs while i wait for a corrected version to be reissue.

Lonely Soldier Boy Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I'll wait for the reports too. Besides it'll give me some more time to save money for it, but I'm glad that Yamato seems to be listening to the complains of the consumers. BTW: Any sign of the Maxfactory Garland? Now... To the Legioss/Tread dicussion thread! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kensei Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 (edited) oh yes... well i think you have to get a whole packet of oreo kensei... think u need them.... anyways.. i will get myself 2 sets, no three sets... hahahhaha... but start saving now for the items in summer.. any one know of any release dates?? So you're saying that the Toynami's is better, and yet you are buying the CMs? Graham, have Yamato posted up the RRP for the SV-51, and is the one displayed at the Festival a coloured resin or final prototype?

wolfx Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 No SV-51 pics anywhere on the net? Apparently "Scary Yamato Booth Guy" was there again and even tokyohunter couldn't get any pics of the stuff at the booth. Guess we'll have to wait and rely on Graham.

jenius Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Those are the Popy pieces right? Sometimes called "magnet action?" Man, I've been dying for pics before I preordered and no one was coming through with anything solid. I think HLJ bumped the released date back to April.... Hmm... not sure how impressed I am...

recon Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 These magnet 1/144 series valks look real good..hell they even have pilots seating inside of the cockpit. Erm whats with the landing gear, as the valks seem to be slanting to one side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruskiiVFaussie Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 They are brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Man i hope i get a decent lot from my box. I will order another if i get all doubles. Go the CF Squadron of DOOM! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The angelbird look okie but not for the VF-1J Millia...maybe the landing gear was attached in a incorrect manner. Anyways would be getting these for display in my office..*zoom* Zoom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonely Soldier Boy Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Is it the wing? It's probably not extended, but it looks like the VF-1J is on an angle. I think there's an odd perspective going on on that picture, since all valks are tilted the same way, not just the landing gear ones. Looking at the picture of the box they are as detailed as the 1/48's, but they're not for me. So much great stuff coming. Gotta set my priorities Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwwmwww Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 well emm hmm but then we need graham to confirm on it right? hahaha... i am pretty damn sure it's from wonder fest.. cause toynami dun use japanese words for display labelling .. am i right people? =p GUYS!!!! What's up? You are slipping, I got an email and a PM about the new Liquid Stone YF-21 but not a peep about this Legioss and Tread. I must know all there is to know... Who is CM? Is this a garage kit or hopefully something I won't have to spend $1000 on to get. Thanks, Carl P.S. Just kidding about the slipping part.

Guest sh002 Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Really no Yamato pics? Someone should have just pretended they were on the cell phone and used their camera phone or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonc Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Really no Yamato pics? Someone should have just pretended they were on the cell phone and used their camera phone or something. That's what seperates the pros from the newbs (j/k) I'm gonna be anxious on seeing the new SV-51. I guess I'm gonna start saving now for that, the Tread/Legioss set, and whatever other goodies we see when everyone post their pics up.

HoveringCheesecake Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 (edited) Even if the guy did shoo Graham off - didn't he say he had a meeting with Yamato officials? I'm sure that he has SOME info, he's probably just busy with work/too hungover to post anything. EDIT: Fixed my punctuation.

wolfx Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Not sure if Graham even has photos. He mentioned he was lining up at a 2 mile queue to enter Tokyo Big Sight, so i suppose he doesn't have a Dealer or Press Pass which would allow him to take photos freely, unless of course Yamato gives him their blessings.

Lonely Soldier Boy Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 I read somewhere a post by Graham stating that he took quite a bunch of photos, but he'll post them when he's back home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Posted February 27, 2007 Author Share Posted February 27, 2007 Don't worry, I have lots of pics of the Yamato stuff at their booth including: - 1) SV-51 w/weapons. 2) VF-0A Shin w/Ghost Booster. 3) Ghost. 4) Motoslave. 5) YF-19 w/Fold Booster (the LEDs are really cool). 6) 1/24 RC Turbo Custom Scopedog. 7) 1/12 Red Shoulder Custom w/full weapons. Of course I'm allowed to take as many pics as I want. It's gonna take me a few days to get them all together on a page. Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
