MaveRick Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Hi.. could somebody tell me if SV-51 was already reissued/rereleased? I was wondering because there happens to be another forum stating that the second version is already up and released last October 30.. one indication of it being the second release is it has already a clear canopy.. this is the picture posted on that forum.. here's the link to the said forum thread - SV-51 SECOND VERSION (??) hope anybody could clear this up.. so i might be able to determine whether what to specially check on the item first before i get them.. fortunately our local specialty shops here are selling the SV-51s.. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scream Man Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 First I know about it. If it had been out since october, Id be pretty surprised if someone here hadnt heard about it by now. Still, u never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexx2 Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 (edited) he has just recieve sv51 ivanov with clear canopys with the command of Nora, and I never saw this type of canopy before. So I think it was reissued... Edited December 20, 2007 by Nexx2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaveRick Posted December 20, 2007 Author Share Posted December 20, 2007 according to that forum thread, the clear canopy version is said to have the fixes already.. though i am somehow skeptical about it.. how come something like this would fall undisclosed here in macrossworld.. so far, i've had almost all first hand information of just about anything from macross/robotech from this site.. was really surprised when i got by this forum.. anyway, perhaps graham could give us further enlightenment..

chowyunskinny Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 sqidd, were both of those from the same seller? If not, which seller did you buy the one with the fixes from? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mriboy Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 (edited) How does the 1/60 scale compare to the 1/55 master collection in size? Edited December 20, 2007 by mriboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclechopchop Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 I know that I'm super late (again) to the party, but is any of this theory true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aceoftherebellion Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 I haven't heard anything about any of this, but running-changes aren't unheard of in toy production. A silent revision, perhaps? I'd also be curious to see if anybody else here has more insight on this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scyla Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) Well Graham stated a few weeks ago that you should not buy a VF-0 right now because there was a renewal planned but no news from a new SV-51. But I read somewhere that the designer who did the SV-51 wants to revisit it. So maybe if Arcadia continues with 1/60th Valkyries and the release a new VF-0 and it sells well maybe you get a new SV-51. A lot of maybes there. At the moment I would not count on any news there in 2013. Here is the thread I talked about: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=38378 Edited February 16, 2013 by Scyla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mechapilot77 Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Wow did we just revive a 2007 thread in 2013? hehe. Anyway yeah before the whole Arcadia thing I do think Graham dropped a hint in the form of advice hinting at a new vf-0 coming. I was about to start thinking about selling my VF-0's until this whole Arcadia thing...Now, I'm keeping them unitl we hear something solid from Arcadia. My hope is that they revisit allthe valks that need revisiting/redesigning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aceoftherebellion Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Graham's been dropping hints, but IDK, I think we're getting close to putting words in people's mouths. I don't think we've been given any details on what to actually expect. As for rumors on anything else, it was in another thread a while back, it was Mr. K, as I recall, mentioning that he wanted to revisit some of the older designs that were done before he came aboard, including the VF-0, SC-51, YF-19 and YF-21... But honestly, that seemed more like an off the cuff pipe-dream and not really Yamato (Arcadia's) actual stance on it. As usual, the temperature in the air seems to be more of a 'wait and see' kind of deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slaginpit Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 The best official news will either come in from Arcadia or Dengeki sooooooo anything new in Dengeki? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclechopchop Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 And to think that back in the day, all we had was the Takatoku/Bandai stuff (with the exception of a few kits) and we were ll pretty happy. Now it's this version, that version, oh and wait, a revision of this version because version one was made with crap materials..... One more thing. Why not revisit older topics if the interest is still there. I asked because I just got an Ivanov. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aceoftherebellion Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Haha, I know what you mean. Honestly, I'm still of that mindset for the most part. Toys today as so consistently excellent that I think we've all become spoiled to it to the point where minor nitpicks are suddenly giant glaring flaws to us... It's kind of amazing, if you stop to think about it. It's good to know all of the little nitpicky changes though, now that we DO have the option. It's like coming out of the dark ages, almost.

Kicker773 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 You can revisit older topics its not a problem. At least not with me. I was just surprised and thought it might have been Maverick who the last time I heard got into an accident and was doing ok. Then he disappeared. I hope he's ok.

Archer Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 I recall something along the same lines. I really hope he's doing ok, as he had some awesome model work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
