If not mistaken, this could be the only Macross item Arcadia have teased but never followed through after. Unlike Bandai.. True. Arcadia's smart enough to just spent their budget on a glossy paper, ink, and an acrylic display to tease you for an 'upcoming' project. Not like Bandai where they will tease you 3 modes prototypes and ended up put it somewhere safe when they decided not to do it anymore. Bandai wins!

Sandman Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 I tweeted to Mr K asking if they still plan to release it. He said it was possible. That tweet was years ago though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Against the Arcadia guy who's going to end up with a 'print out' in an acrylic tabletop display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping this thing is issue-free, and they follow it up with the lovely 'B' series. Been some time since we had a new valk design to add to the display, and this one was high on the list, along with the Variable Glaug, VF-9 , and the VF-14. Oh yeah, and an improved YF-21 w/ good overall battroid proportions. This so cute lol, I really like the proportions of this bird. Had to sell most of my valks due to moving to Japan, only retaining a single 22 Gamlin. Two months in and I bought a VF-4S MHR 🤦♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabe Q Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Does anyone know if they'll release a PF version of this shortly after? I just saw this on HLJ and I've been wanting one for the longest time. I will hold out for PF version if I know it's on the way. https://www.hlj.com/1-60-scale-perfect-transformation-vf-19-kai-nekki-basara-special-with-sound-booster-reissue-aca82165 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure hope Arcadia gives us one though! I think a PF version would have some brown ink panel lines and way more tampo printing. They could throw in a bit of subtle weathering as well. They markup the price on the valks pretty good for the PF versions so who knows if they'll want to cash in on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, Mr. K mentions that the upcoming VF-19 Kai is being made at a new factory, compared to the previous issues. I hope everything turns out fine and we'll not get a repeat of the recent YF-19 spate of breakages. At same time, got to commend Arcadia for maintaining the prices for these reissues, when the MSRP of every other toy & reissues have risen steeply.

505thAirborne Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Since Arcadia seems to be revisiting Macross 7 I would highly encourage them to create a whole new VF-11B & 11C. (yeah, I know the 11B is Plus) @recon This, I'd be on board for a remake of the VF 19S/A Emerald Force & their VF17D/S. Standard & PF variants.

And if they are really lazy, i would settle for a VF-1S strike minmay guard with all the fancy tampos.

Raikkonen Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 I wonder what license bureaucracy there might be with BW and Bandai to proceed with all these suggestions? I'm still hoping for a VF-0A revisit... but perhaps a lot of that depends on exposure and the if eventual international Blu-Ray ever gets released.

We need a Premium Finish release of the VF-0A (with legs that don't break off) I would definitely second that! It feels like a no brainer with the secondary market demanding a premium on the QC plagued first release and the PF treatment having been done to the two other toys. C'mon Arcadia, get on it! Also, do a limited run of the CF at the same time and you'll save on costs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolicon Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Yes, please give us a PF VF-0A! And reissue the PF 0D while you're at it! And also a "premium premium finish" version of the 0S with all the weathering effects like the PF 0D! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treatment Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Honestly... I think Arcadia's still trying to recoup their losses from all those broken toys their previous (or current) factory produced. VF-0A, SV-51 Ivanov, and the YF-19/PF-YF-19 fiascos come to mind immediately... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
