But man, that looks sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles_Wolf Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I hope the final colors are like in these last photos but they look like darker than they should, specially the one where you see the valk with other models together. I think the colors will be more close to what we saw in that convention than these. Still loving it. But I would like to see photos of the fighter mode without the booster on the back.

They're making sure that the head doesn't swivel so it won't break. Do I hear 'PO Cancelled'? Again, do I hear people cancelling their PO's?

Lolicon Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 M7 valks aren't my favorite liveries but I'm super excited about getting a valk that hasn't been done before, aside from some garage kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no3Ljm Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Would it safe to guess with current Arcadia's pricing that this will be priced between Y25000-Y30000? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're reserving it for their Premium Finish version which they will announce it 3 months after the regular release PO. Or worst, they'll probably announce it once the regular got released.

Chronocidal Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Eh, there aren't enough markings on the Macross 7 valks to warrant a PF version. I wouldn't mind a bit more tampo, but I think all I'd add are intake warnings anyhow, and they'd clash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronocidal Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 (edited) That's just Bandai in a nutshell though, quantity over quality, not caring if any of it makes a lick of sense. I'd much rather have 50% of the canon markings than 200% that are Bandai's garbage-looking made-up ones, including purposefully incorrect ones that they refuse to correct because they stand behind their mistakes like they're some sort of bizarre artistic statement. At the end of the day, it's a whole lot easier to add missing markings than to erase incorrect or ugly ones.

But do be careful though if you're going to add aftermarket waterslides to it. It might get scratch if you're going to use its stand adaptor.

kajnrig Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Pfft, you have to manually attach/remove the booster, it's not integrated into the transformation mechanism. PO canceled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly why I passed on the Angel Birds as well. I just couldn't get past the massively ugly emblem they invented and slapped all over the valk like a bad tattoo.

frankell05 Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Every time i look at that color scheme.....It at least needs some shading or something. It looks so bland now it actually take away from the great design of the mech. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolt Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Many of us panel line and shade our VF's right out of the box. But maybe a PF version is what you need. Either way, it's following an anime accurate paint scheme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronocidal Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Yeah, I'm actually really liking that shade of green in the newest photos, it's pretty bright, but not gaudy like the older photos. The original just looked nasty because there wasn't enough contrast with the yellow, but the newer shade has enough blue in it so the green and yellow start to compliment each other.

It looks so bland now it actually take away from the great design of the mech. For me it needs more definition on the head turret. Like painting the face plate in a darker green. The green color doesn’t pick up light the same way as the white of the VF-1 head turret for example, resulting in a loss of definition.
