Tking22 Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Yup, looks like a VF-0 in gerwalk, I'll pop in now and then to see whenever they fix the color, because the Max look is just not doing it for me at all, molds looking good though.

abbadon Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 One of the coolest I've seen, if you ask me. !!! Agree! I plan on displaying it in that mode. 2015 can't come any sooner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tober Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Curious to know what happened to the tail wings... And how it's one of the coolest Gerwalk transformations when the backpack and arms aren't transformed. Unless that answers itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wm cheng Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Although (probably too early to tell) I see that droopy crack behind the cockpit by the upper intakes where the chest piece separates which was always a problem with all the VF-0s before - that separation closes up nicely if its sitting on its landing gears, but if you have it displayed in flight without the forward fuselage supported, it droops.

Mommar Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I know it isn't Anime accurate but I like the Blue as-is. It could be this or something else, I'm buying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXO Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I know it isn't Anime accurate but I like the Blue as-is. It could be this or something else, I'm buying it. I liked it too but curious to see what the new color will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Looks like they reworked the knee joints as well to use an extending hinge like the VF-1, instead of that weird double joint the first version had. I actually liked how much range of motion the old one had, but the design made it hard to rotate the lower legs out because the knee cap could interfere.

But the old, odd, double joint version really did make Gerwalk posing on the 0 better than the 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest davidwhangchoi Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 It is beautiful... as if it's telling everyone that doesn't like the blue to kiss it in the rear... if Tenjin says it's wrong.... then it's not possible to be beautiful. a grandmaster has spoken. but since you're a grandmaster of painting yourself (you're painting my figures... conflict of interest)... what part do i kiss? the backpack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaoticYeti Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 (edited) Anyone with a lot of VF-0 experience want to chime on the gerwalk photo? Does it look to be holding it more solid? I just watched Jenius' review of the Yamato VF-0s, and one of his critiques was that the nose of the plane was loosely tipped down in gerwalk.

Gakken85 Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 (edited) The old feet on the VF-0's just wouldn't stay in place. When you pulled them down to try to pose them left or right, or balance it, they would just slide back up into an unlocked position. The unknown soldier release was better, but the movement was limited. You couldn't get that locked out predatory bird look that you could get with the VF1s.

I just watched Jenius' review of the Yamato VF-0s, and one of his critiques was that the nose of the plane was loosely tipped down in gerwalk. That gap between the chest piece and the heat-shield isn't half as bad as in the previous version. I'd say pushing the nosecone towards the fuselage would suffice to make the gap disappear, but it's probably to early to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myk Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Glad to see this is finally happening. I don't like any 'Valk designs outside of 'Zero, Macross or 'Plus so I'm looking forward to buying another variable fighter after a long, long time...

Mommar Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Also, all of the preview models have been loose/gappy/etc...Remember, the YF-19 had three different prototypes and the first two didn't exactly fit together snug in all instances either.

jenius Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I'll be shocked if there's any semblance of that gap. I seem to remember some MWers fixed it by straightening out an internal piece of metal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcon18 Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 The gunpod has to shoot paintballs too. Or have The 0D be able to look like it's been shot up by paintballs. Stickers or whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raptor One Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Hope they didn't go the VF-19 route of giving the thigh joint limited motion. I want it to be able to go all the way down like on the VF-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Hingtgen Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 My new YF-19 has "dat gap". Annoys the heck out of me because it occurs across the intakes too. One continuous gap all the way across. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UN Spacy Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 BTW...any tips how to fix the droopy feet of the VF-OS/A? Mine don't stay in place in G/B-Modes...and one the replacement biceps have fractured LOL. What a mess the originals were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
