Bandai Spirits SDF-1 TV edition


Swoosh

Recommended Posts

60cm in length!

From Google Translate:

 "In commemoration of the 40th anniversary of the airing of "The Super Dimension Fortress Macross", this item, which is currently being planned, is a three-dimensional version of the TV version of SDF-1 Macross. It is said that it has achieved complete transformation from a ship to a strong attack type. Of course, it will be an action figure that can reproduce the impressive scenes in the play, such as the main gun firing and Daedalus attack poses."

Time to clear off some space. That is really a beautiful piece.

Bummer that it has no landing gear like the Takatoku.

I hope they fix that before actual release.😅

I don't know, may be landing gear was just a toy thing, never saw it in any design art.

Oh frak me!

I would hope it's a little more white instead of greyish-white.

But my goodness!  I'm already itching to panel-line that sumbitch!

EDIT:  Just checked:  no way this sucker is fitting inside a Detolf shelf.

And just because I’m a facetious ass, they better make sure this secures strong and tight and doesn’t tend to look like this:

If it flops or constantly misaligns, I’m gonna scream bloody hell murder.

(Prepares to be yelled at)  Overall it looks good, very well detailed especially if you wanted to panel line it. My only real gripe with it this is the length of the main guns, needs to be longer IMO, just like the old 80's versions the guns need to be extended. Otherwise looks good, I can't imagine what this will cost though... pending it's actually produced.

Looking at this pic, it's actually longer than the old Takatoku/Matchbox one:

On the custom I did a few years back, you can see where the original main guns ended.  And compared to my custom extension below, Bandai's main guns are just a smidge shorter (and probably accurate to the line-art):
