jenius Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 So a reissue but with the ball jointed head and whiter color of the standalone 1J release? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DewPoint Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Well not exactly a reissue. The original release was technically the DYRL version. This is the TV version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave IV Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Isn't there usually more than just some extra parts and color changes for a release to be considered "Revival"? Is there any change to the armor parts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvmacross Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 At least they got the color of the missile tips right.... I'm in for at least 1...of everything teased! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh9000 Posted December 22, 2022 Author Share Posted December 22, 2022 Preorder 1/12/23. Release date 5/2023. 13200 JPY. Nice set of TV hands, a swappable VF-1J head, side covers for the VF-1J, and the armor looks to be a different color blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MKT Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 (edited) Detail wise for the armor, the transparent pieces for the legs are now clear, instead of the previous release’s blue & red. The UN Spacy kite on left knee is now red on white, instead of white on black. In other words, it will be an exact mini-me Chogokin 1/48 Armor.

Doubt these will be insta-sold out like the DX'es I agree with you on this sentiment. Cool mini me of the GBP, but might have to pass on this. I’d rather have a new mold released from the Destroids set. Besides, the DX GBP turned into a shelf warmer so this strategy to push a dud is strange.

vladykins Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 I still have an old set sitting on a brownie 1A I have to paint up like the black one in "Love Flows By".

Convectuoso Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Of course I'm getting this one, but I may use the included VF-1J for displaying without the armor, and use the armor on my old VF-1J that's showing some yellowing signs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScrambledValkyrie Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 I'll be looking to get one of these, mainly as a more TV-accurate replacement for the original HMR release. I just hope the "white" on the armor matches the white on the valkyrie, instead of the gray in those photos. Maybe Bandai will dial that in better for production, but I'm not terribly optimistic. Either way, it's great to see more HMR Macross getting made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvmacross Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Would have been cool if they had included the pieces to have made their previous GBP release a proper DYRL-type...but then again.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh9000 Posted December 25, 2022 Author Share Posted December 25, 2022 https://tamashiiweb.com/item/14259 I might buy only 2 as I have many of the first Armored Valkyrie release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
