The final color will certainly as the grey/blue of Superparts As i said, it was the prototype color, the real color is as the superparts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh9000 Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 The updated colors on the Max and Milia Armored Parts don't look too bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKT Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 KC must have gotten quite some feedback to change the colours rather substantially so quickly. Still not Takani’s but much more acceptable than what they initially showed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark-1s Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 I really like the updated 2 tone look, but the chest is a little excessive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 That chest is deep looking. This is a big improvement from the first attempt while simultaneously bringing something new in the two tone approach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MKT Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 (edited) The chest does remind of Yammie’s 1/48 GBP. Which could be a good thing; classic puffed up chest power pose. Edited April 24 by MKT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, I am over here looking at the odd angle on my DX Armored 1J and its not any better. I blame camera angle TBH. As for colors.. the revision IMO looks better, I do like the deletion of the Robins egg blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glane21 Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Got the KC Dana Sterling in from BBTS and I think it’s pretty great. The cloth over figure plus armor is very similar to the Sentinel ride armors build and basically correctly scaled. Which is nice if you want to do a mashup display. They should go back and restart the Macross characters in their flight suits (rather than their sailor uniforms) in this new style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spark-O-Matic Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 They should have just gave white boosters with it, then red & white or white & blue. no worries it still looks ok but I'm not buying when I've got this guy. they need to do something better. In the meantime I've got these guys to keep me company . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spark-O-Matic Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 They should try to do a 1/35 scale series especially with Three Zero right around the corner or do something cool like this 15 year old kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's one thing I've learned from the multi-year (~ 4 yrs ) delay on the Dana figure is to never preorder anything directly from them. It is best to go through a e-tailer like BBTS so you can just forget about it until/if the item is released and be charged then, instead of having your money tied up "forever".

MKT Posted Wednesday at 12:04 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 12:04 PM (edited) New video detailing May 2024 promotion: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/kdKmdwZso3n6jf9t/?mibextid=w8EBqM Not sure what he meant on the SD VF-1 being pre-production. Didn’t they already do SD valks for the longest time? What is more interesting though, is the segment right at end of video..

So they found more SD VF-1J's and VF-1S's...at least these won't get in the way of production for the GBP Hikaru armors and the Regults....which should be released any day now...right?

If they do more southern cross , I’d preorder from bbts for sure just like I did with Dana. I’ve waited a few decades, I can wait a couple extra months or even years as long as I know it’s in the works. And if the project is cancelled, bbts doesn’t take any of my cash, so it’s no loss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenius Posted yesterday at 12:33 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:33 AM It's such a smart move though because they will pair perfectly with the Sentinel toys. They should include a 1/48 version with each to go along with the Legioss toys. A 1/48 Jeep as a PO bonus for one of the figures would get my money.

I do wish they will continue with more SC figures first though. But yeah assuming & likely them making 1/12 Mospeada figures is really cool & tap into existing Sentinel ride-armor market.

Ooh more Hikaru.. at first I thought it could be Hikaru in the blue pilot suit; always wanted the old 1/6 Popbox Collectible, but then I recalled that's in DYRL . If they come out with this white uniform, I'll likely skip it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
