anime52k8 Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 CF VF-25 is green, I think...more olive drab. CF VF-27's are Green.
xrentonx Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Are you sure or are my eyes bad? This looks green http://www.mech9.com/blog/2011/07/vf-25a-messiah-valkyrie-cannon-fodder/
Rabidweezil Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 looking at my photo of Bandai's 1/250 Fighter collection, they colored it a sandy brownish color
Mommar Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 (edited) Are you sure or are my eyes bad? This looks green http://www.mech9.com/blog/2011/07/vf-25a-messiah-valkyrie-cannon-fodder/ I think that's a trick of lighting. All of the scene's with them parked in the hangars they're definitely a sandy color. In the second movie leading up to the scene where Ozma beats up Alto in the hanger next to the YF-29 they pan downward and there's a bunch of CF 25's that are all Tan/Brown. That guy at the website makes a good point though. They made a CF 27 (though there were less options to re-use that mold) and now there's a CF 171 as well (once again, less options.) Maybe Bandai will eventually get around to a CF 25 at some point? Edited April 18, 2013 by Mommar
xrentonx Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 I haven't sat through the movies yet. Maybe they changed the schemes like DYRL... Did they show up brown anywhere in the series rather than "khaki green?"
Mommar Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 I'm pretty sure I've seen them in the show that way too but I can't quote a specific show really since I only just flip through them because I can't stand to sit and watch them.
David Hingtgen Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 I'd call them khaki green. Greener than a VF-1A, but tan-er than a VF-27B The 1/250 looks right to me.
valhary Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 there a lot of cool paint schemes only for the messiah by the way bandai where are the missiles
raptormesh Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 The VF-25 in tan looks really good. CFs are the best
anime52k8 Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 (edited) If they do a CF-25, I want FSS markings on it: Edited April 19, 2013 by anime52k8
miro79 Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 i really digg the YF-25 paintscheme and headsculpt. Would buy it instantly!
Mommar Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 If they do a CF-25, I want FSS markings on it: That's the scene I was referencing. I'd be all over a CF 25.
erikos0311 Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Does anyone think the VF-25G will be re-released anytime soon?!?
jenius Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) No, it's still widely available. EDIT - maybe not... but if it's not any more it sold out recently. Edited April 20, 2013 by jenius

zzgundam010 Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 No, it's still widely available. EDIT - maybe not... but if it's not any more it sold out recently. even NY doesn't have it. Oh where Oh where can I find one???
erikos0311 Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) even NY doesn't have it. Oh where Oh where can I find one??? Lol yeah I know where I can find one ..., lol just was asking if they where scheduled for pre-orders anytime soon. Thanks guys! Edited April 20, 2013 by erikos0311
jenius Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Sorry, I looked around, it looks like it has indeed sold out at most places. He who hesitates.... pays secondary market premiums. Seeing as we haven't gotten a VF-25S renewal re-release I'd say the odds are very much against a reissue this year. So my guess is we'll see Super Michael and Luca parts Tamashii exclusives announced soon for concurrent release after the RVF hits. I think we'll also hear about Alto Tornado parts before the end of the year. Then next year we'll see a Michael reissue at some point and then Tamashii exclusive Michael VF-25G Tornado Parts. Hopefully I'm wrong and Bandai decides to go the gift set route sooner!
OzmaLee74 Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Amazon Marketplace still has it for $267 shipped if you're willing to pay at a markup. Still less than $300.
plastik Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 maybe I'll sell you my 25g for $250 shipped and you can save $17

David Hingtgen Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Hey, they've got pre-orders for the reissue renewal Alto, too---for 10 yen less than N-Y.

SaitouSad Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 man, I got excited when I saw they carried the vb-6 monster.. but then my heart sank when I saw the price
miro79 Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) This one first! Seriously! and with superparts: Edited April 20, 2013 by miro79
Twoducks Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 This one first! Seriously! and with superparts: That is the one I want. I'm a sucker for mechs with orange.
David Hingtgen Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 I always like the real-world schemes: 1st page, bottom. VFA-81 Sunliners. (esque) 3rd page, top. VF-33 Starfighters. 4th page, bottom. Compass Ghost. (F-15)
