Valkyrie Magnus Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 It needs to come with a pilot figure that's being squished to death. Just smear some ketchup on one hand and a few drops more on the ground, instant liquified Valkyrie pilot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aceoftherebellion Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Eh, IDK. I'm excited for a Vajra toy because I like their designs. Generic large bug toys are just generic large bug toys, they're not even close to the same. It'd be like taking a Starscream toy, panting it white and calling it a Valkyrie. It just doesn't work.

ultraman zoffy Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 The SH Figuarts monsters are more along the lines of Bandai Super Robot Chogokin scale, which is too small to look right next to the 1/60 valks. Take a look at the SH Figuarts Godzilla line for an example of their scale... really nice figs, but generally small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omegablue Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I've never seen any SH Figuarts monsters in person, nor much interest till this and the Eva Angels to follow them on the net. It's just silly to make it that small if there aren't any plans for Valks in it's scale and quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aceoftherebellion Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 (edited) Supposedly it's scaled for the Robot Damashii figures, where there's at least an Alto Messiah, a couple of Queadluun Rares and technically that Chogokin Monster they made, so it's in fairly good company in the line it's meant to fit in with... Plus there's also that upcoming video game tie-in with Frontier units being playable and everything. It's a choice that makes perfect sense for Bandai if you think about it. It's just that I'm sure most of us here would have much preferred something scaled for the DX Chogokin/Yamato lines.

MacrossJunkie Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 New Picture. Looks horribly small. It does look pretty small using the RVF-25's wings as comparison. I'm not sure how much more in the foreground the RVF is compared to the vajra though. I may still get it if the price is right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aceoftherebellion Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I've had some luck as a customize scaling up very small models by adding spacers to joints to try to 'stretch' a model as much as possible, but that usually only adds a few mms at most. Enough to make a shrimpy non-scale figure or kit scale better with it's series-mates, but I doubt it'll be much help here. I'm just going to have my fingers crossed that it's slightly bigger than it looks, but I'm really not holding my breath. As for the RVF comparisons- remember, that figure's actually on a stand. We've seen photos of the same display from other angles, so you can't measure based on pure height. It's actually really hard to figure out what the actual scale here is, since the Vajra is on a platform that's at least an inch thick set back from the others while the Chogokin is in the foreground and perched on a stand, so any actual measurements are near impossible from the photos thus far.

MacrossJunkie Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Oh I wasn't speaking of the height of the RVF, only the size of the wings in comparison since they look huge compared to the vajra. Which is why I wondered how much closer to the foreground the RVF was. It's too bad there isn't a pic that shows more of the surrounding area so we could see the positioning of the valk.

MacrossJunkie Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 (edited) Hmm, yeah. It's still too hard for me to tell. Oh well. I guess we'll just have to wait for actual measurements or something. It's around 15cm tall without it's cannon thing. 15cm? That would make it only reach between the hips and chest area of a 1/60 VF-25. Edited November 15, 2012 by MacrossJunkie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
