Gwynne Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 (edited) Anyone have any idea if the 0A might show up up again on NY? It seemed like the 1J preorder was available forever and the 0A is already not available. I keep waiting but I guess I could give CDJ my money.

Usually or most of the time, NY opens up again upon the toy release. Or some of the time, they will post it up after a day or two of PO items (e.g. Bandai's DX Valks) with a marked up price. Though AmiAmi and HLJ are still open if you're interested. Edited June 4, 2015 by no3ljm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

no3Ljm Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Oh. Was it? Usually, Arcadia release or POs last longer than Bandai PO releases. 'Not sure why though.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwynne Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Oh. Was it? Usually, Arcadia release or POs last longer than Bandai PO releases. 'Not sure why though.' Yeah. I have been real busy this last month and never got around to it because I figured I still had plenty of time, so I was getting concerned that I missed my chance. And NY just opened preorders back up a couple of hours ago... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sreichma Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I'm glad to see Arcadia begin to put a contrast color on the underside of the pieces, the black goes a long way on the pics I have seen of the zero, I wish they would start to do it on the VF-1.

I'm glad to see Arcadia begin to put a contrast color on the underside of the pieces, the black goes a long way on the pics I have seen of the zero, I wish they would start to do it on the VF-1. True. But they missed out on doing that to the just released VF-1J/GBP so I don't think they will do that if ever there's going to be another VF-1's reissues/re-releases. Even if it's not black but a darker shade of the main color will do for me. (e.g. White Valks = Grey / Blue Valks = Dark Blue / Brown Valks = Darker Brown, and so on and so forth.)

wmkjr Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Just read the VF-0A development blog. Mr. K discusses about the conformal tank for the ghost, tailfin design, addressing the arrestor hook down with the gunpod, the triangular cover and how it might affect transformation to battroid, coloring, why there is a peg hole by the intake, chest gap cover, fast packs and weapons. He also mentions that as of now it is undecided about the reactive armor but he wants to do it. http://arcadia.ac/vf0a/diary/02/page_02.php. Also looks like preorder is closed at the Arcadia site.

The VF-0D has the belly plate molded in dark gray, and that means the underside of the wing glove had to be painted white... the part that the shoulder rubs directly against for transforming. I'm all for making things better colors, but only if it can be done with individual parts of the correct color. Painted sections on transforming toys tend to not last.

Does this mean there will be a new separate option parts, added parts to cover those hole, or it will be integrated/attached in the chest area of the VF-0A? Hope they will include something for the VF-0D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 That looks like an integrated double-hinge, so a built in part that couldn't be offered for the VF-0D... but maybe included if they ever do a second run of the 0D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wmkjr Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 (edited) Integrated in the shoulder hinge like in the pics. He mentions if they ever do a v1.1 for the 0D it will be incorporated. The translation says something about 9 new/modified parts added to the VF-0A. Edited June 22, 2015 by wmkjr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no3Ljm Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Thanks guys! Probably Mr.K got inspired by Bandai's folding sliding gimik on their VF-19 Advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 It is interesting in how many ways Arcadia is looking into tweaking the 0A and S to be better than the D. Would be nice if they fixed the crap ankles though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arrow Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 nice color. I'm on 2 minds at this point for collectibles. black and dark colored ones or drab military colors are great but when put on an unlit shelf, it practically disappears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
505thAirborne Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 (edited) Looks like the tampo will be like the 0D... minimal. Although at least UN Spacy is on the legs. Edited July 9, 2015 by 505thAirborne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronocidal Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 You know, dunno if this was pointed out, but if they don't make the armor, I'm going to be really pissed at those useless holes they left in the intakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wmkjr Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 (edited) Those are pics of the prototype painted. Not the final colors shown yet that I could find. You can see more of those pics here (scroll down) and here. You can also read (translate) part 2 of 2 so far, of the development blog here. Mr. K said he wants to make the armor but it's still in the air and those holes are for future development (But come on really? It should be a no brainer if not it'll be useless holes).

jvmacross Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 (edited) Arcadia needs to perhaps go into a partnership with Hasegawa to release the VF-0B and VF-0C...web exclusives? Edited July 9, 2015 by jvmacross Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scyla Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I really like the blue highlights. It would be a bummer if they aren't present on the final toy. Than again it doesn't seem to be line-art accurate right? The parts should be a darker gray don't they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
