Vegas Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Are you posting while drunk? If not, then you should. You'd more likely see a two seater Focker being liquored up, than Yamato ever producing it. *******C'mon stick to the thread. yes i am now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd more likely see a two seater Focker being liquored up, than Yamato ever producing it. Why wouldn't Yamato make a two seater? Graham already said that they've been engineered from the start to allow for two seaters. We just might not see one right after Roy, but we're gonna see them this time around, it's just a matter of when. -Kyp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miriya Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 I am a bit more concerned about who they put in the two seats. That original VF-1D was a bit of a let down on the pilot front. Hopefully the V.2 1/60 VF-1D will come with Hikaru (in orange civilian flightsuit) and backseat Minmei to be anime accurate. The V.1 1/60 Ostrich was right on though with the pilot figures.

Awacs Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Now this is where we will agree to differ. I'm not to worries by who they put in the seats of a two-seater VF-1. I figure there must be lots of two-seaters out there, not just the one Hikaru used, so I would be quite happy with a "generic" set of pilots. That said I think it will be a while before we see any of the two-seaters done. Given that they have started with the DYRL Fokker I would expect to see the obvious DYRL birds early on - Max, Hikaru -1S and -1J, before we get onto the two-seaters and TV stuff.

thankheaven Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 (edited) Im not sure we're gonna see the VE and VT though we will probably just see the VF-1D. The VF-1D looks like the regular VF-1 just with a second seat i think but the VE and VT has a different shaped nose and front witch needs a new sculpt.

Agent-GHQ Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I'm hoping Yamato can do the VE-1 and VT-1 as well. Not just the other already 1/60 VT-1 and VE-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I wonder if more 1/60s will be shown at winter wonderfest, and if they will be shown in painted form too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruskiiVFaussie Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Have to say the VF-1D is now top of the list of my "most wanted". then the VT-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 VF-1D show colors is a definite buy for me. However I also want to see it in low viz, and tiger meet colors. Surprised I've never seen a tiger meet VF-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicked Ace Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 (edited) Surprised I've never seen a tiger meet VF-1. I'm surprised, too. The Customs gallery on the main page has some really cool stuff. Skull-1's handy work in 1/55 scale: Kurt's custom in 1/48 scale: This would be cool in 1/60 scale, too.

Well you probably put it better. Kurt's design is like a fine painting, but on a Valk, it's kinda out of place. But yep, you can't deny that it was very artful.

Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 The VF-1A had its share of repaints in the 1/48 line, but I think the VF-1D should recieve more repaints in the 1/60 line. I like the design a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miriya Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Definitely! I hope they make a VF-1D virgin Road with Max and Milia in Wedding garb as the little figure pilots! That would be DOPE!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruskiiVFaussie Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Yamato could easily develope a special release like a 1D with 1S head. Cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the design a lot. Since this line is going to be cheaper than the 1/48's I can see Yamato milking the D mold with the orange and Virgin Road variants.

Then four characters in the captcha code. The odds would be (1/35)^4. That's a 1/1,500,625 chance...of it happening to you on any given occasion. The chances it happening eventually on the internet with, millions of people seeing captcha codes every day, are much higher. God I hope my math is right.

Sundown Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I would think it happening to someone who actually cares or knows what a VF1S is would be pretty small. But I suppose it'd happen eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since charger69 has hooked us up with so many new pictures, I think this member has earned a couple of passes to go off topic. Besides, when there's new pics, I'm sure this member will be one of, if not the first to give us what we want. So, which 1/60 scale two-seater are we going to get first?
