What was wrong with those?

The color? I guess it depends on who you ask or what animation cell you’re using as your reference. As @Lolicon pointed out when the forum had the exact same debate in noel’s Arcadia Max 1J thread, “The parts change color quite a lot in the TV series.”

The arm armor packs are DYRL type....

 

Bingo. It’s nice to see that we could be getting the correct style arm packs with the TV VF-1S. Then again, it’s also a little frustrating since the new HMR mook shows Bandai was already planning to make them.

Why didn’t they just give us red and blue TV arm packs for the M&M 1J releases? It’s an unsolved mystery. :ph34r:

^ Apologies if this has been discussed before, why is the Tomahawk purple and not mustard yellow?

I think it is just a blue cast from the photo on the light brown color like the original Yamato(and soon to be Arcadia)  1/60 Tomahawk release. Like if you took a picture of this and your phone camera added a little blue to the mix:

And youb get this:

I think they will actually make it purple, to shake up the "old fashioned" color scheme. 

Then they will try to sell them again in the future with the brownish colors😄

I don’t know about those colors, but I wouldn’t mind it if Bandai released alternate color HMR Destroids. Maybe navy blue, khaki, and olive drab?

Should we be hopeful that the tomahawk is listed in the coming soon section of the new Hi Metal R book?  Or just another tease?

Opps i should watch the whole video in future, i guess the price and date was for something else.

That scheme is very nice and befitting that destroid.  IIRC, didn’t you customize a full set of Destroids?

That was the only custom I actually made but it looked great with the rest of the squad. B))

Which SDF/Macross is that? (in the middle)? That looks sweet!

Thank you. I'm 99.9% sure that is an Imai 1/5000 scale model kit, the Arms & hips are modified so they can actually be posed vs. the super stiff look it has out of the box. B))
