Yeah, but it also doesn’t show the VF-19. There’s still plenty of time for some surprises

NoctisTalem Posted April 5 Posted April 5 Just ordered a 1S to try and make into Max's 1S from DYRL, does anyone know if the Hasegawa battroid hands are compatable with this model?

I’m pretty sure they aren’t. Although I don’t doubt the movie version of the battroid kits will be coming up fairly soon since they’ve done quite a few of the tv variants already. I think that as far as major ones for the show, it would just be the M&M 1-J s and cannon fodder 1A. There’s a few that have those brief but cool showings, but I think that since they’ve done quite just released the super and strike fighters that movie battroids will be very soon
GMK Posted April 12 Posted April 12 (edited) Plamax PX-11 VF-1A Super Valkyrie just released. Love the DYRL? artwork. Edited April 12 by GMK

Chas Posted April 14 Posted April 14 (edited) Wow! Stunning paint job! Outside of the painting there are some very subtle changes to the kit. The bicep area on the kit is tapered from top to bottom, this build is square. Plus I'd be interested to see how the hand was modified. It's funny how when using this paint technique removing panel lines and details actually improves the impact. Edited April 14 by Chas
GMK Posted April 24 Posted April 24 PLAMAX PX16 VF-1S Strike Battroid (DYRL?) announced, complete with Minmay figure & DYRL? hands.
GMK Posted April 24 Posted April 24 (edited) More parts. These complete the initial release material. Ideally, they’ll cover the VF-1D fighter, the Gerwalk range, & GPB1, but I’m not confident. Edited April 24 by GMK

lechuck Posted April 24 Posted April 24 This is the money shot! Decades of various different PT toys costing hundreds and to this day none of them can pull of this dynamic pose.
sh9000 Posted April 24 Posted April 24 (edited) I like the shoulder joint of the Playmax. The pose is off in the arms though. With the exception of the shoulder placement, I've done the pose with my HMR. Edited April 26 by sh9000

cool8or Posted April 24 Posted April 24 Plamax is doing a wonderful job with Macross. I love to see that Minmay figure, but I hope they consider to include the corresponding pilot in DYRL? suite for each version.

They do have dyrl seated pilots, but oddly I thought they’d include Hikaru standing with this one as well. Maybe they figured the 1/20 minimum version was good enough, but I would have liked the in scale figure

GMK Posted April 25 Posted April 25 Is there enough interest in a SDFM Super Valkyrie in either Fighter or Battroid modes?
