UN Spacy Posted November 11, 2010 Author Share Posted November 11, 2010 The beauty of screenshots? 1. Please don't sculpt cockpit Basara with his helmet on. 99.9% of the time he's not wearing it. 2. If there's gonna be a standing Basara he's gotta be wearing t-shirt and jeans WITH guitar in hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reïvaj Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 (edited) Guys, I've been pushing Yamato for a standing Basara figure to be included. No word yet if it will be. Can I have some screen shots of what sort of bose you would like to see a standing Basara figure in, please. Graham Maybe something like this?

Graham Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Please don't sculpt cockpit Basara with his helmet on. 99.9% of the time he's not wearing it. Don't worry. IIRC, the sculpt had helmet off. I can check my photos when I go hom though to make sure. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham That's great news. IF they plan on releasing the Sound Boosters. Make sure they don't forget Basara's sound energy converter. They both premiered in Episode 28 "New Sound Weapon". So it'd only be right to release em in the same set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regult Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Where can I preorder?? Not my favorite but it looks like it's going to be a great toy. It has all my support. I'd really like a YF-19 v2 Just like Ignacio and I suspect a few others, the Mac Donald's Valk is not really my favorite, neither is Mac 7 overall, but this toy is coming together ridiculously cool and I think I am now fully convinced! Hope it's not going to have some evil weakness embedded! (crossing my fingers). (OT alert) If Yamato can pull off such a cool toy so many years after the show was over, I can only dream what VF-25 , VF-27 or VF-171 they can make in the distant future.

ff95gj Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 (edited) I am buying it for my love for Yamato, not Basara. Will we see the VF-17, Graham? I'll get the 17D, 17S and Millia 17S. Enough mold-milking to justify it? Edited November 11, 2010 by ff95gj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's gonna be a standing Basara he's gotta be wearing t-shirt and jeans WITH guitar in hand. My god talk about anime magic, I love how battroids are scaled up soooo much!! Basara looks tiny in that picture by the feet. Reminds me how big they made the VF-1D battroid at the start of SDF macross. If they do this hopefully they will make him acurately scaled.

Dobber Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 This sculpt just keeps looking better and better, too bad it has the HORRIBLE fire valk colors. Still want to see more of fighter mode, though the 2 pictures we have seen look fantastic!, I really want to see a good profile shot. Never the less I will be getting one of these! Don't know if I could wait for a POSSIBLE repaint since there is no guaranty there will be one. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueMax Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Unless I remembered wrongly, Graham has mentioned that the blazer valks AKA Emerald force valks will be sure to follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Unless I remembered wrongly, Graham has mentioned that the blazer valks AKA Emerald force valks will be sure to follow. The only problem is their wings aren't shaped the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueMax Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Haha... there is still the Zolan Patrol 19. That is almost identical to the Fire valk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regult Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I am not sure if we should assume they'll make the repaints and variants just because they have a tooling they can work with...the driving force will and always was sales and profitability, gosh, there is more than one toy I wanted and even saw a preproduction photo of, only to turn into vaporware!

Can I have some screen shots of what sort of bose you would like to see a standing Basara figure in, please. Graham A kneeling pose where he can be placed near the battroid cockpit hatch or on the chest would be cool. Also the flower girl in the distance, would be a neat nod. Was the sample you handled full of ratchets and detents? I hope Yamato thoroughly manhandles/tests the Fire Valky before final production to iron out the kinks, no V2 1/60 shoulder issues please!

Uxi Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Yamato can reuse the wings from the Fire-Valk to make the VF-19 variant from the Master File, too. IIRC it was the D/E? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruskiiVFaussie Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 (edited) Is it too much to ask... for the sound boosters to have actual speakers inside them, make them exclusive (speaker versions only, cheap versions normal), get Yamato to pair up with samsung/sony whatever and make it so!!!! I'm adamant i'm going to make my 1/60 urge me to "LISTEN TO IT'S SONG!!!!" via USB etc. Think about it, how awesome would it be, the technology is there!!! Use it!
