Lolicon Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Which is your favorite Nightmare? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mog Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 We talking toy itself or design/color-scheme? If toy, the VF-17D. Better looking head than the S and comes with FP armor. Though, yeah, lot of anime magic going on for all modes. Design and color-scheme? CF 171. Love the teal, and it stands out from all the other hero Valks out there. But yeah, don’t need Toynami Alpha levels of aggravation from the toy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's always a chance that Bandai does a re-release of the CF 171 w/armor since they just did Alto's Valk, but this time without exploding legs, knees, hinges & triangles. As for me, the VF-171 CF is one of the coolest looking Valkyries out there, the Teal makes that design come alive!

Mog Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 So, the Bandai folks that designed the 171 and made the material choices on the CF? Are they the same people that designed Bandai’s YF-21? 🫥 Too soon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This followed by the 17, and lately I wish Yamato had stuck more closely to the line art for the nosecone shape. The Alto 171 usually doesn't really do anything much for me, but your customization really makes it stand out very well here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope so but I'm not sure Bandai will even finish the SMS squadron much give us any non-hero reissues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, it's rare that Bandai ever does the obvious, like reissuing the Valk's fans/collectors really want. I'm strapped for cash at the moment, but I'd find a way for a CF VF-171, maybe even two.

MKT Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 I'm trying to think the last time Bandai released anything CF.. was it the 31A Kairos? Arcadia seem averse to CF schemes, and it'd be a shame Bandai follows suit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a recolor of a mold they already have... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not realize that you could remove (swap-out) the forward fuselage/cockpit section on these. I might have to find a spare 0S & OD and do the same, tough I'll make my VF-0B look like the Hasegawa kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
