Froy Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 (edited) An angle in particular? Fighter, battroid or gerwalk mode? Edited November 11, 2013 by Froy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie addict Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Had this pictures lying around. Not high res but I hope they'd help, what are you looking for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YF-29 Durandal Posted November 11, 2013 Author Share Posted November 11, 2013 (edited) An angle in particular? Fighter, battroid or gerwalk mode? Battroid... I just love robots but battroid + fighter is good too. @ Valkyrie addict: Yeah it's good but could you get the green to show in the valkyries face if possible? Edit: I found some more pictures on my own. Edited November 11, 2013 by YF-29 Durandal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie addict Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 to try and get the visor color is sorta difficult in pictures since their recessed inside their visor. But you can play with photoshop to make the visor pop out a bit more, the best I could do before making it look too unnatural with the surrounding lighting.

DarrinG Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Always wished they had gotten the green color more visible in the visor (its too darn dark) - so I added some back in Photoshop here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renato Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 The reissues use a darker green colour than the originals, so they look almost black. The first issues are unmistakably green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mechapilot77 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) I have a first release and they seem almost black to me . . . i have both but have only opened my first release and its too dark. Actually, MANY of the yamato vf-1s have green that is too dark for the eye/sensor IMO. I wonder if anyone has kept track of whic h releases seem to have darker green than others (to my knowledge, not even jenius has and he used to detail almost everything his reviews)...i've not paid too close attention BUT it does seem like some are better than others (although IMO they are ALL too dark). someone could make a pretty penny by releasing aftermarket heads with the correct shade of green (already molded in the correct dyrl/sdfm colors)....especially if that person were to include an LED gimmick for the eye too. It'd be perfect, as its not like the heads aren' t meant to be removed. lol. just sayin... although i'd take a simple one piece replacement clear correct shade of green plastic anyday too. :-P Edited November 12, 2013 by Mechapilot77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frogze Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 The reissues use a darker green colour than the originals, so they look almost black. The first issues are unmistakably green. I just checked my samples of both releases and the second one is indeed much darker than the first. The interior of the visor is painted has a reflective metallic coat and the green is clearer on the first release so that when the lighting is right you can clearly see it's green. On the second release the green is much darker, almost black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

close313 Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Is this a VF-1D fetish thread of some sort ? Mine's back in its box, so I'll take photos for your pleasure when I can. 1D's head has a very different 'feel' from other VF-1 heads. It gives me some kind of star wars-ish feeling or some sort.

close313 Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) Hahahaha i guess star wars isnt the best way to describe it. Looks like 1D wasnt the droid I was looking for. Its too bad yamato didnt do a 1/48 version of this(although there were conversion kits i've read somewhere) it would have been majestic.
