Bolt Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 I like it ! But I'm on the fence. Would only get it for the water slides. But they're not so special, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC something similar happened with the Regult recently, something about the joints being updated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOG Water Dragon Posted October 21, 2022 Author Share Posted October 21, 2022 Wait, the variants of the original armored VF-1 come with better hands??? So I need to buy a spare copy of one of the new ones to donate hands to my original armored VF-1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I need to buy a spare copy of one of the new ones to donate hands to my original armored VF-1? I honestly don't know. The original Armored VF-1 kit came with both the original VF-1 Battroid hands and a set of original Armored VF-1 hands. On second glance, these appear to either be taken from MG 1/100 Gundam kits (MG Sinanju? Sazabi?) or other third-party articulated hands (like these Hobby Base ones).

I'd compared the instruction sheet for both kits at Hobby Search, the hands are and feet are not new parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMBounty_Hunter Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 This is why you always link the source instead of just the images https://hjweb.jp/article/758204/ The feet are beefed up with styrene While they don't specify which exact hands they stole from another kit other than it's "movable type", from the extra pics it's pretty safe to conclude these are layered injection hands probably from a recent Bandai MG. It has the pip for clicking into the weapon handle slot that's needed because the movable fingers can't hold anything. Unpainted pics show the extra styrene sheet on the back of the hand to give it the VF-1 detail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big s Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 I preordered the scout last night. Kinda surprised how fast they’re pumping out these variants. Also surprised this came out before the heavy missile version. I really think the scout is a bigger transition and now I’m confident that the regult variations will all happen very soon. Now we gotta see what project will be beyond the regults. Glaug, armors, gnerl who knows, I hope there’s more to look forward to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just super happy that they are doing the scout type since it’s the most drastic change from the standard Regult. I’m pretty sure the heavy is on the way soon since it’s just a replacement of the missile pods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect they’ve already done the design and tooling for all the variants, and they’re just staggering the releases so they don’t overwhelm people’s hobby budgets. I’m sure people are more likely to buy multiple copies when only one model is released at a time. I also think it’s logical to spread out the two missile types with the recon one in between. Since the recon is the most different of the four, it’s the riskiest investment. They wouldn’t want people to be tired of buying Regults or decide they can’t afford any more by the time the financially riskiest variant hits the market. Really excited to see this one. I’ve procrastinated on buying the light missile variant - need to order a couple. Edited December 2, 2022 by VF-1A Grunt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOG Water Dragon Posted December 3, 2022 Author Share Posted December 3, 2022 I'm sure they had em all planned out. I just would have expected them to save the super exciting one that most people want (which I assume is Scout but I could be wrong) for the end.
