Bandai 1/72 Scale Macross Frontier Model Kit Thread Ver.3

I am happy enough with normal decals, these special decals get snatched up by stores in Hong Kong and sold separately so often...or there is sth I didn't get quite right. It was impossible to "steal" the Cathy decal from the superpack "S", but I don't remember seeing the "S" wearing super packs (wait, maybe in episode 3 or 4, but for such a brief moment) I only remember it as a Armored Valk almost all the time, so it's going to be a hard decision, Alto or Ozma? Alto shows up on all three confirgurations so often...but then I'll end up with 3 Alto customs!

I'm having some trouble getting my VF-25G with armor parts to fit together right in Fighter mode. The legs just don't seem to wanna fit right with the little part that is hinged on the side. And pushing the legs up seems to make the crotch area (and the piece it's connected to under the cockpit) pull away from the nose of the plane. Anyone have any trouble-shooting tips or a link to a vid/pic tutorial?

Actually. I played with it again this morning and took it from Battroid back to Fighter. I realized that what was happening was that the head was somehow not aligned properly (or at least the little neck piece) and that was causing the crotch to not fit properly. I feel kinda stupid now, but at least I got it finally! :lol:

holy **** man! thanks for the pics!

WOW, that looks like a 1/60 to me,

judging its size in comparizon with the stand

seems like we're finally getting a PG vf-25!!!

now, i am no longer in a dilema to get a DX or not

lucifer is awesome, cant wait!

and i cant believe the q-rae kit actually comes with klan sitting inside!

simply awesome, seems like the bandai model kit division just cant do no wrong!

thats what we expected from a toymaker like bandai!

I knew it!

I had a feeling those guys in the Figure Oh article were hinting at a PG level 1/48 VF-25.

The Queadluun has a planned release date of September.

Holy crap, 1/48 scale! Didn't see that comming at all. Wonder if it will be marketed as Perfect Grade.

That's gonna be huge, like 39cm long in fighter mode!

Think we need a new thread for the 1/48.

No VF-171? Bummer... But VF-27 rocks! Its confused design of good & evilness is completely translated to the model kit. Not a fan of the visor flare on the fighter mode... But what can I say... Bring it Bandai!

Edit: @wolfx, the Rae is 1/72 scale, most likely it will be a model kit, unless Bandai is splitting the DX to 1/60 and 1/72 size.

Ya never know. They may bring out a VF-171 later.

So that 1/48 VF-25 definately transforms? Unlike the Hasegawa 1/48 YF-19...

Little is known about this 1/48. But given Bandai's pass record, it most likely can transform.

A bit OT but can anyone tell me what this is? http://blog.hobbystock.jp/report/images/etc0093/002.jpg

From Gundam Unicorn, which has a movie coming.

Could be that Yamato has the Macross 7 license for toys, but Bandai has the Macross 7 and all other licenses for 1/48 kits. It could also explain why Yamato isn't doing much with their VF-1 in 1/48, and concentrating much of their efforts on their 1/60 lines.

Thanks for the speculation, but translation plox! XD
