I don't think there's any logical reason to doubt that they won't.  They've been steadily releasing product for the line ever since the first release.  As someone else said a few pages back I think what they're doing is pacing it out so as not to suddenly lose customers that were only in for the Macross products.  Pretty smart strategy if you ask me. Besides, if they weren't doing what they're doing we wouldn't have such sustaining product line to fuel our habit and give us fun stuff to chat about month after month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sumyumgoy Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 I'm very happy that the HM-R line exists.  My collection started with it so I never experienced the older version but I'm also not particular when it comes to parts forming / perfect transformation.  I think it's a great line to compliment our other options.  It's a good time for newbies like me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was me that said something to that effect. And it would seem that Bandai is even spacing things out across different Macross series, instead of pushing out all SDFM or DYRL first. As far as finishing what they originally announced, I would agree it's more of a "when" than an "if". Though it wouldn't surprise me if something like the VT-1 ends up being released later than sooner, as it's something that many (myself included) are really interested in.  1 hour ago, ZorClone said: Besides, if they weren't doing what they're doing we wouldn't have such sustaining product line to fuel our habit and give us fun stuff to chat about month after month Plus the slower stream of releases makes it easier on the bank account, especially when there are certain ones that you decide to skip.  2 hours ago, anime52k8 said: They showed so much stuff all at once, it's gonna take a long time to get through all of it.

Shukenzero Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 (edited) I'm on the fence about ordering the VF-2SS. I really liked the design when I first saw it years ago, and right now it's up for PO in local stores, but with the price tag and smaller scale, it's a difficult decision. Bandai won't make a 1/60 of it, and it looks like it won't be a huge seller, so stock should be available when it hits. Usually, regardless of popularity, I'm there with the 'take my money' mentality but maybe this time I should adopt a wait and see strategy. Thoughts? Edited June 26, 2017 by Shukenzero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Focslain Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Gods, $150 for the VF-2SS, not sure I can stomach that after already getting the Bandai version at the same, especially with the work needed to fix it. Â The Monster though I'll see about grabbing, always wanted one of those bad boys and will be much cheaper then the Forgeworld version.
