Guest sh002 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 i think i like the vf-25f a little more after seeing and hearing some of those parts moved and the diecast areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anime52k8 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Edit: If I may review the review, its great! I would have liked to see the transformation process though-- and there were some slight inaccuracies with regards to the background story of the VF-25 near the end of the review. But an AMAZING job overall! I would have liked to have seen it without the nearly 5 strait minutes of ridiculous pan and and zooms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wizartar Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Yeah... This is the only Wiz review I don't like. OK, I'll lay off the pans.... put only a little! I also plan a transformation if I can fit it in under the 11 minute mark. But I'm not sure about how the head is meant to mount as every time it seems to end up slightly different.

Folka Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 I think the only problem with the video was that it had a bit too much panning with music. Your other videos were a bit balanced with talking and displaying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I can make it sit a number of different ways but don't know if any of them are the correct one... Learning Japanese is still on my to do list.

mpchi Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Yeah, I kind of knew it must be you, as you were bitching about my video Is there a Transformation guide for the head of the VF-25 here? As I can make it sit a number of different ways but don't know if any of them are the correct one... Learning Japanese is still on my to do list. Yeah, that neck/chest transformation is a bit funky. I tried following the instruction closely (the pics with the back view showing the cockpit block leaning on the neck platform), but the neck turn out short even on my Alto. But today when I transform it again and did the neck/chest slightly at a different angle, the neck sticks out more and now looks great (though the back view is not as close to the instruction pic as before). Since the chest assembly doesn't lock at a specific spot, I guess its up to us to arrange it however we like to get the best results? Not sure really.

Graham Posted January 19, 2009 Author Share Posted January 19, 2009 OK, I'm sold on the VF-25G & RVF-25. Actually, I was sold already, but the latest round of pics makes them a must buy. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted January 19, 2009 Author Share Posted January 19, 2009 Still wondering how the missiles that come with the Gallia IV set will attach, give the lack of hard points on the toy's wings. I really hope it's not an over-wing clip, like on the old 1/55 Strike Valk, but I can't see how else they will do it, unless the set also includes all new wings with hard points.

Cent Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Damn, I'm really liking the VF-25G... the only problem is that i'm still not seeing any shots of the gun mounted in fightermode. makes me more and more worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted January 19, 2009 Author Share Posted January 19, 2009 I'm reasonably confident that the VF-25G's gun will be able to mount in fighter mode, but I doubt it will be able to be displayed with landing gear down. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I was looking on Hobby Link Japan and it seems the 1/60 Ozma and Alto versions have been discontinued according to HLJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twoducks Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 OMFG!!! FTW!!! You can say that again! I was thinking of giving Luca's FP to Alto, but the radome looks awesome with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwin3060 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 (edited) Sweet!! There should really be a link in the scoop thread. About the Gallia IV set-- are we even sure it is coming out anymore? Afterall we haven't heard anything about Ozuma's super parts or the Ghost's for Luca. On a related note, Alto is now USD160 on Angolz! Is this insane or what!? Edited January 19, 2009 by edwin3060 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edwin3060 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Ghost, no..but Ozma I'm assuming would get the full armor before it got the super packs. That doesn't make sense, since the moulds for the super parts are done. Given that they haven't announced the web exclusive for the Ozma Super parts, I can think of 2 scenarios: 1) There was such high demand for Alto Super parts that they diverted production of Ozma's to satisfy demand. This could explain why they re-opened the web ordering for Alto. 2) They are slowing down releases in lieu of the current economic outlook. This could explain why there haven't been any announcements of new products past March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmegaD3k Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Is the fuselage a new mold? O_o Looks far more sleeker and less chunkier compared to Alto and Ozuma's... That, or they did a bit of Photoshop work... Amazing pics. @_@ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Letigre Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 If demand was high on the Alto Super parts, I don't think they would have diverted production unless Ozma's wasn't expected to be high in demand. I bet many people, if not most, are waiting for the Ozma Full Armor pack and probably would be skipping the Super, atleast for now. Also there's money to be made on the Full Armor since there is an Alto set to be made there as well. Besides, with the Super packs molds done, it isn't as if they can't go back and release a Ozma Super version (maybe even as limited edition) later on to catch collectors who wanted the complete set.

Guest sh002 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 after the vf-25g, rvf-25, and armor, bandai should do the vf-27, vf-171, and maybe a 1/60 vajra and koenig. or do anything not released to be done in 1/72 scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkReaper Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Why are they always on their tip-toes in those gerwalk pics. Just lazy transformation or are they trying to hide the poor angle in gerwalk. Also there aren't any pics with their gunpod attached so I guess displaying a parked VF-25G with Gunpod is impossible. What were they thinking when they designed those landing gears? It not only looks bad but also prevents a major feature of the plane itself.

That, or they did a bit of Photoshop work... Amazing pics. @_@ I think its more the fact that the Super packs make it look much better, with the bulked up portions making the other parts look slimmer and closer to the anime. sh002: The VF-171 EX Alto custom should be a shoo-in for production, as will the RVF-171 Luca, and probably a CF version. The VF-27 should be made as well I hope. The Koenig Monster... I wish but probably not. It would really be MASSIVE. DarkReaper: +1 to your gripe about the landing gears. Maybe they will release the movie version with proper landing gears as a bonus Edited January 19, 2009 by edwin3060 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sh002 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 yes the koenig would be too big in 1/60 scale even though it's just the koenig. a koenig in 1/72 scale or bandai's take on it in 1/100 scale would be cool. i just want an extremely large in-scale macross figure to be made by bandai like what hasbro did with the large millenium falcon that used to hang in toys r us' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
