A VF-11D from Hasegawa though... this one will be sweet. And yeah, +1 on Hase hopefully releasing the Super Packs for these bad boys.

Dobber Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 Regarding the VF-11B, that's why in my origianl post I said another VF-11B like maybe new markings or something...like they did with the VF-1 kits. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelsain Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Wouldn't be hard to add a fast pack sprue to the 11, a lot easier than the VF-1. I'd bet it's a new decal set, though. Maybe the M7 colors? Eager to see the D! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ae_productions Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 VF-11D? That's awesome! Can't wait. Now, to rob a bank to pay for all these new valks. Or, I can just steal legally and become a politician or a banker! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, I can just steal legally and become a politician or a banker! If you rob the bank, grab enough $$$ for me too! I'll take a VF-11D as well as another version of the VF-11B, maybe this one has the fast packs or different decals as Dobber pointed out.

VF5SS Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 I they're going to make the VF-11D I think that second VF-11B may be a typo. I mean, the VF-11D shares the same gunpod as the VF-11C so I'd figure Hasegawa would want to maximize the shared parts on two kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe plastic injection kits are unlike money. They're not traceable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Hingtgen Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Has a VF-11D that wasn't Jamming Birds ever been depicted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talos Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Has a VF-11D that wasn't Jamming Birds ever been depicted? No, but we know a few things about it based on the description of the mods for the Jamming Birds model. A basic, military VF-11D will have the smaller VF-11B/C canard and lack the additional VF-19-style verniers behind the cockpit, according to the Compendium.

Jefuemon Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Looks like it's the first "Macross the Ride" kit. Sorry, but color me unimpressed. For once, I'll pass on a Macross Plus era kit. (but that's just my opinion) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet101 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I'll buy the VF-11D, but I sure hope it comes with a good alternative paint scheme! As for another VF-11B, hope its the Fast Pack version or failing that a typo and a VF-11C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talos Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Not crazy about the paint scheme, but it's nice to see a VF-11D model kit coming out, along with a Macross the Ride one. Interestingly (and probably appropriate for a race plane), it has the VF-11D kai modifications that the Jamming Birds' planes got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
505thAirborne Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I'll still get the kit, but spray paints and other decals will be used for mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noyhauser Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 ^ don't forget that Fujimi is releasing a 1/72 F-15E too. I'm excited for the VF-11D and especially the Jamming birds variant... the spherical canopy actually is my favorite part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetarB Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 (edited) I really, really wish Finemolds would do some different subjects, rather than just the same ones in different scales. Pumped for that SpaceWolf though! Edited September 14, 2011 by PetarB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dobber Posted September 21, 2011 Author Share Posted September 21, 2011 They missed a chance with the A-6, they should've turned the egg around so the bigger end was in the front and the more pointy end was the rear. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
