kyekye Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 (edited) I know..It's Kids Logic.. It won't be called Macross, It will be probably expensive and Their Cockpit speaker is horribly delayed + $450 shipping But hey, they are trying to make cool looking stuff based on Macross mechs. Gotta give them that. Here are 2 images from their Boss's facebook. 2 busts they are preparing for Hong Kong Toy Festival this weekend Edited June 14, 2018 by kyekye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolicon Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Those look cool, like the Gundam Formania EX line. Wish it was more than just the head if it's going to be super expensive. https://hlj.com/product/BANN55001 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DewPoint Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 The air brake looks a little small to me. Not too sure what I'd do with one. My display space is limited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seti88 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Hmmm not too sure abt those neck pistons either. Nevertheless interesting to see KL's attempts to prototype concepts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chyll2 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 imo, it worked great on gundam but looks really off for VF-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vi-RS Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 The VF-1S head looks a bit off with huge visor, and I think I like the one done by danbickell. Too bad it’s not completed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvmacross Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Very nice....would consider the -1J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Convectuoso Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 There's the rest. VF-1A and VF-1D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolicon Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Movie 1A head in TV colors. Interesting. 1/8 scale? That's pretty big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Of_Tetris Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Looks pretty cool! And....1/8 scale? Wouldn't that make these heads the size of one of those bouncy yoga balls you use for a chair? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Everything they make is way too big for my storage or display capacities. It's cool for those who have the room though the airbrake does seem small to me in proportion to the head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chen Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 It says these will be 29cm tall so just under a 12". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Eh.. not my cup of tea to begin with, but they need to stop making up panel lines and extra details that didn't exist on the original designs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanity is Optional Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 I'll be honest, depending on price I might go for the -1S head, if it's only ~12" tall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macsam Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 i am really liking the vf-1j and vf-1s preorder open already. wonder if it's going to be a 2018 release? kids logic has a history of lengthy wait time when it comes to product release Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickyg Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 (edited) "Warning: Hot Air" on an air brake? Not sure that's all that logical.

kyekye Posted June 16, 2018 Author Share Posted June 16, 2018 new photos from HK toy convention, I think It says HK$1799, so I guess that's around USD$230 - ish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vi-RS Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 If that’s how they scale the airbrake, I’ll like to see a cockpit with pilot above the plague instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a franchise that goes to such great lengths to mimic real world aircraft, it always just leaves me dumbfounded how much of a disconnect there is on items like these. There's more than enough source material to reference... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight26 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Interesting, and yes the Airbrake is far too small. Plus the VF-1D does not have an airbrake there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanity is Optional Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 I'll be honest, I still think it looks cool. Just not $230+shipping cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvmacross Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 I still would like one.....current order of preference...maybe there will be a way to safely eliminate the goofy pistons... 1) -1J 2) -1S 3) -1A 4) -1D (looks the worst to me and would likey not buy any if this was the only one left to PO) Every interesting piece of Robotech stuff Kid Logic wants to sell should really be "half-sized"...at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seti88 Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Will wait for a version that allows head to tilt forward and seat to be placed on neck, with a corresponding scaled pilot figure to be added on. too much to ask? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
