rsvictor1976 Posted November 25 Posted November 25 @jeniusDid you already get your Miria VF-1J? Can we get pictures or a YouTube review? Quote
jenius Posted November 26 Posted November 26 Yes I did, and my Roy GBP, but I'm playing with Macross7 toys right now so they went straight in the closet. When Max arrives I'll do something for ThreeZero and I have a plan for more DX content but first Basara needs to save some space whales. Quote

jenius Posted November 27 Posted November 27 Love the group shot! Looks like a very vibrant red. Quote
Chronocidal Posted November 27 Posted November 27 Yeah, the paint is really what sold me on picking up this one. I just hope Bandai gets a color that vibrant.. you know.. if they ever get around to it. Quote

The advantage of predominantly-painted surfaces is vibrant, consistent colors, which has often been an issue with unpainted plastic molded in specific colors (that never quite match the painted parts). Transformers collectors know what I'm talking about. 😒 No corners cut or expense spared on the paint app's here, though! Even the smallest tampographed markings are crystal-clear. More importantly, the specific shade ThreeZero used is pure red, neither as fuchsia as the HM-R nor as maroon as the Yamarcadia 1:60. It's very anime-accurate to my eye. 1 hour ago, rsvictor1976 said: Looks good. What's your feedback? Well, as most of you know, ThreeZero's VF-1 is basically a downscaled DX Chogokin, with all the pros and cons of that design. The side-fillers are welcome, but are fiddly and require parts-swapping; the wings are never perfectly aligned in battroid mode, and the missile mounts are really tight; the legs are heavy with die-cast, so the entire leg assembly is likely to pop off during transformation. If there were factory QC issues with previous releases, there's no evidence of them here. I don't have problems with the canopy or the intakes or the landing gear or the sliders or the joints or the paint or anything else others have complained about. Some of the joints are scary tight, but I expect that with a brand-new toy; in fact, I prefer it. The double-jointed elbows are particularly appreciated: My only gripe would be the unsightly gap that cuts through the roundel on the port side of the nosecone. It's much less pronounced on the starboard side. Of course, I do wish it had come with FAST packs... ...and didn't have that Robotech-specific "Miriya Sterling" label on the canopy. 😅 Quote
rsvictor1976 Posted November 27 Posted November 27 (edited) New pictures of the Super Pack. It looks like we may have to buy an entirely new VF-1S Rick Hunter version to get the Super Pack unless they sell it separately. Edited November 28 by rsvictor1976 Quote

Froy Posted November 27 Posted November 27 (edited) I guess is this one. https://m.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1413814390753760 I see a bundle in coming since card reads "Rick Hunter" and original release reads Roy Focker on the canopy. Edited November 27 by Froy Quote

jenius Posted December 2 Posted December 2 Max just shipped. I'll do a double review with both once it gets here. Quote
Axelay Posted December 3 Posted December 3 Very interested to see what you think of these. I hope the Max 1J is good. Quote
rsvictor1976 Posted December 3 Posted December 3 (edited) I hope GokinPlus comes out with those ThreeZero Veritech adapters soon. Edited December 3 by rsvictor1976 Quote
jenius Posted Tuesday at 12:02 AM Posted Tuesday at 12:02 AM Max has landed. Someone asked about shipping before, it came from Uni Express and I didn't see a secondary tariff charge so I think TZ took that one on the chin. They have since adjusted prices. Quote
