Valkyrie Driver Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 It's pretty clear that that 1A was never supposed to have those lasers, but that Armored 1A was intended to be there, poorly animated as it was... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie addict Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 (edited) Thanks Wmkjr but that is not the one i first saw here, although it looks pretty good the guy who posted it made reference to it being based on model boxart The old 1/100 and 1/170 IMAI/ARII VF-1 plastic kit had several variations of the 1A with GBP-1S that were later reissued by Bandai Sorry I can't find better quality pics at the moment.

wmkjr Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 (edited) I believe jvmacross had pics posted earlier in this thread sometime around the beginning of this year of different gbp box arts. My memory is kinda fuzzy on that. Edit: Found it! From jvmacross: Gotta have one for each of these!!!

jenius Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Mirya's is weird. it looks like her Vf-1j is a base white model rather than red. Yeah, it looks like HIkaru's 1J but with blue piping instead of red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Driver Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I want to do a 1A or 1J custom in Vietnam US lizard camo, with woodland GBP... That would look so great... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrinG Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 The heads on all those paintings look double the size they should (IMO). -------- I still remember the day my older brother brought home the 1/100 IS GBP kit - think I was in 8th grade. Voltron was on the TV when he came in - and he said "Screw Voltron - check this out..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wmkjr Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Hmm, it's still on Arcadia's Twitter and their staff blog on their website so maybe my info's not refreshed. Unless it was sarcasm and I totally missed it. Also, what's with the time stamp being in words and some in numbers. Is there a way to change it?

Tking22 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Are these still available anywhere? I only ask because I've decided to sell my 1J Hikaru, he doesn't have the GBP because I already sold it, so it's just the valk, instructions, valk stickers, box, and all of his hands and little side cover doo-dads. I'm not even sure what I'd ask for him, transformed him once, he's perfect, nice and tight, I just decided to go all in on the Hi-Metal R line instead, I don't want a random 1/60 sitting around collecting dust.

Valkyrie addict Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Sorry, I expressed myself wrong, I meant that Arcadia notice about their errors in a certain way contradicts ("shutting down"), MrK comments about why their products are so expensive.

no3Ljm Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 It's not possible to place this on a stand with the armor on right?Are you asking about the Yamato/Arcadia stand? If so, you can since it came with a display adaptor. Hope that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArchieNov Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Oh did it come with adapters for the armored mode? I'll check the box again. The only adapters I remember are for the unarmored/bare valk since it locks onto the hip bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krazee_k Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 The adaptor is the only non armour piece on the GBP tray. its just that the wings need to be partially open as it interferes with the stand piece itself (refer picture attached) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 silly question.. I tried googling it but couldn't really find what "GBP" actually stands for. I had assumed it was an abbreviation for something but the best I can find is "Ground Combat Protection Weapon System" My son asked the question and I kinda felt a little stupid not knowing the answer considering Macross has been in my life for so long.. anyone know anything more specific?
