00Geass Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Not too bad! Unrelated, but can someone tell me about WAVE's VOTOMS releases? and is the Actic Gear line from Takara coming back? I JUST started buying those from Mandarake! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big s Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I'll answer those in the votoms thread if you want to be more specific. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NZEOD Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 you know the best thing with that Wave VF-4... is doesnt make the Repptu resin one irrelevant in that it looks so similar it would look fine on display next to one. Major noticable difference is the ram engine intakes are set both into the top side AND the bottom side of the centre wing sections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dobber Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 (edited) I really like the slight differences between this and the resin kit I built (in my signature) they look a lot alike, but with some slight differences. Displaying together they can represent different variants, i.e. a VF-4A and a VF-4G ect. I actually have another one of the resin kits all cleaned up to build and a great idea for a paint scheme (not an F-14 squadron for once, I want to paint it up like Thomas McGuire's WWII ride ) but I may just wait for this kit, as a plastic kit build will be easier then having to pin resin parts into place ect. This is McGuire's Lightning for those that don't know. I figured it would be one of those anniversary/tribute type scheme's on the Lightning III.

wm cheng Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Hmm, not bad, I would prefer to always error on the side of sleekness if you were to go wrong (which is what they've seem to have done here). However I think the nose is a little too needle-like - a little more VF-1 with that droop would be nice, the canopy seems a bit far back too close to the canards. Come on Hasegawa; "...your my only hope..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salamander Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 So...is this kit dead in the water like the Monster Destroid they showed a few years back that never materialised? Or is there more recent news of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazinger Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 It would be sad if there were no kit forthcoming especially since there hasn't been any HMR+VF4 related news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salamander Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Guess we'll have to wait for the next hobby show for more news then.... (I have the Club-M version, but that's the kind of kit that I somewhat fear building) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a late, late reply to this post, but I think that's one of the soft vinyl kits. The Club-M resin kit was 13,000 yen and looks way better than that.

NZEOD Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 M-Club is easy to build, the Vinyl one... not so much. I have both and the Resin kit went together in quick time but the Repptu vinyl one is way WAY harder to get looking right and not warped. Â The Wave display piece says its coming in 2017 so wait and see I'd say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't a fan of the VF-4 at first, but it's been slowly winning me over in ways. I'd hate to see this just go "poof!", you know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wm cheng Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 I love the VF-4 - its one of my all time favourites. I wouldn't mind if they started over as what I've seen didn't excite me at all - the lines and proportions just all seem a little off. Come Hasegawa, take a crack at this baby please!

VF-1A Grunt Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 I still remember learning about Flashback 2012 as a kid, when all that I knew up to that point was SDFM and DYRL. I was fascinated by the image of the VF-4 and hoped it would mean a whole new movie or TV series. I was disappointed to learn that it was just a short film, but I never lost my interest in the VF-4. I'm also a bit wary of the test shots of the Wave model, and while I would love to see a Hasegawa version (with lots of limited edition squadron schemes!), I'm guessing that won't happen, and we'll have to be patient with Wave.
