Jefuemon Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 So, if you want a gun pod instead of the camera pod, you gonna have to scratch build one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Model-Junkie Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 The gun pod is on it's own sprue for the VF-11B kit so most likely the VF-11D will not come with one and it will be replaced with a sprue for the camera pod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwmodels Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Actually, the Camera Pod for VF-11D is going to be resin parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonc Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 (edited) I was going to say that kit is pretty cool, but the most fascinating part is the camera pod. I just preordered one for myself. I haven't built a good Macross kit in a lonnnnng time. Edit: To add, it seems that by 2059, U.N. Spacy made the VF-11 series available for civilian use. To me, doesn't that seem a bit odd? It'd almost be like a news agency being able to buy an F-14, or the F-20, hell, even an F-4, and I don't think that's ever going to happen.

Fly4victory Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 The news agency would need a fast aircraft for filming the news/propaganda. Interesting looking aircraft. Add some more orange and it'll be an Irish VF-11. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Model-Junkie Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 (edited) Actually, the Camera Pod for VF-11D is going to be resin parts. Nonetheless, because the gunpod is on its own sprue Hasegawa will most like not include it for the VF-11D. Now the VF-1D did include parts from the VF-1 single seater kits (ie: cockpit, nose section & chest piece/top fuselage piece) but only because the VF-1D re-used parts from the same sprue. ......

Whilst odd, one excuse I can think of is because news crews will not be able to use helicopters in space?

Jasonc Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Whilst odd, one excuse I can think of is because news crews will not be able to use helicopters in space? That's one of the things I thought was a good idea with Macross II. SNS had an aircraft able to keep up and get the footage, and was designed specifically for their needs. The fact that it had a GERWALK mode was pretty good, too. It just doesn't seem feasible to have a news agency flying in, I guess what would be, a decommissioned fighter line. Not saying the kit isn't cool, cause it is, just a little odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reïvaj Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Aren’t VF-1s used for poaching whales in Macross 7 Dynamite? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonc Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Aren’t VF-1s used for poaching whales in Macross 7 Dynamite? Yeah, they were pirates, and it kinda explains where they get some weaponry from, which is like some arms dealer. Also, considering the age of the VF-1, that's probably a little more feasible, I guess. Even then though... In anycase, it looks like this kit doesn't need a whole lot of surface painting. I will definitely do a weathering job on this. Seems like mostly white paint, and giant decals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron5864 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Aren’t VF-1s used for poaching whales in Macross 7 Dynamite? Didn't Miria kept her old red VF-1J as a backup plan in Macross 7? That is until Gamlin got a hold of it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will definitely do a weathering job on this. Seems like mostly white paint, and giant decals. No, it was specifically a civilian model, the VT-1C. We saw them on the Zolan world too. It featured a shorter, stubby rounded nose instead of the longer pointed one most VF-1s had. We also saw construction VF-1s in battroid in Dynamite 7.

Jasonc Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 The first one looks a lot like a VF-9 at first glance. I really do like what's been done to the other two. Beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketchley Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Neat! It's the XVF-19-1 from VFMF:VF-19. Cool that the webpage also IDs it as such. Shame that those books aren't part of the official setting. [backstory: prototype designed to test the Y/VF-19's control system, under development at the time.] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
