Wasn't there a episode on SDFM called Booby Trap? What happened in that one? What mecha were in it? ep-1 of SDFM-TV. VF-1D was the only mecha in it. The Roy VF-1S and all other valks were in fighter-mode (1A, Angel Birds, Ghost). 9 hours ago, Chronocidal said: I feel like it's not quite so cryptic if you translate it, but I can't imagine he's actually hinting at what comes to mind. 1 hour ago, jenius said: The SDF-1 fires its big cannon. Global says something about nazis leaving behind things that didn't seem dangerous, like a pen, that would then blow up when people touched them. The idea is that the SDF-1 would seem destroyed to its pursuers, then they would approach it and it would blow their faces off... like what happens in the episode. So the humans had built up the spaceship but hadn't managed to purge the instruction that told it to fire as soon as certain ships were within range. Holding a smoking pistol that just blew up some visitors is a tough introduction! Edit - the most obvious hint would be a TV SDF-1 in this case since that doesn't happen in DYRL. 1 hour ago, technoblue said: I think Mr. K is being cheeky about the lights on the tower. I mean, I really don't want to read into it and get my hopes up. To start thinking that Arcadia is considering a TV SDF-1 is folly (but that would be fantastic if there is a glimmer of hope). The only other ideas that come to my mind are a reissue of the 1/60 Angel Birds VF-1A (not bad) or a reissue of the 1/60 VF-1D (meh). To be hopeful, i say it's either the much-wanted 1/3k SDF-1 TV-edition, or they gonna reissue the 0A and non-PF 0D coz those seemed to be toy "booby traps" ... 😝 Or maybe they'll reissue the 1D since that was the only valk in battroid-mode in the episode.

Okay, not so meh if you missed Yamato's original v2 release and the 30th Anniversary reissue. I'm nonplussed about the idea since I'm content with Bandai's DX.

Chronocidal Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Yeah, I think right now is probably the worst possible time to try and sell a repop of the VF-1D at 1/60. Unless they're hoping on catching the eye of people who missed the DX release? But since that was a webshop order, there (theoretically) shouldn't be anyone who missed that release. Right at this particular moment? I'd love to see a TV SDF-1, but I think my primary hopes would be for either a PF VT-1, or a PF YF-21 and VF-11B release to go with their PF YF-19. Think about it.. Macross Plus getting a US theatrical release? Just imagine if they could actually sell them here to capitalize on the sudden opening of the floodgates!

no3Ljm Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 I was just checking the DX YF-21 thread earlier. Seeing that there's no movement on that figure from Bandai, vaporware at this point, Arcadia should take advantage and revisit Yamato's YF-21 and apply their magic touch to it. I'm sure you guys will agree on it even though half of you guys are already appreciating Bandai's YF-21 Battroid prototype. What say you, Arcadia-san?

borgified Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Didn’t I read that Mr. K wanted to go back and redo the YF-21 (et al.) at some point in time if it’s possible? We’re talking about close to ¥40k for base and ¥50k for PF when the green light is given. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like the Yamato v2 1/60 VF-1's slightly more, they fit with the other valks scale-wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, there's nothing even secret about this, the PF YF-19 was supposed to be out weeks ago and got delayed. Would be happy to see production picking up, but would be even happier to see them revisiting the entire Plus line, PF or not.

I honestly don't know why they haven't done that one yet. Weren't the Ravens popular in Japan too? You see plenty of other toys that reference the color scheme, it seems like it crops up in other places often enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I'm still holding out hope for a ghost booster bundle of the 0A or 0S (they do have those adapters, after all). But I've been waiting for... a long time.

Mommar Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 (edited) People have been speculating because the VF-0 is a "Roy" version that they can't release the HMR version here. I wonder, because there's nothing tying the design to the original series, if they would get away with releasing the SV-51's and the other 0D's and 0A's because they don't have any of those markings or name associations? Unless the Kite holds up the 0's. Edited November 23, 2021 by Mommar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
