Radioguy Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 40 minutes ago, Bolt said: As this a WWM release, I expect it to be widely available. I doubt it will be exclusive just to that event. That would be losing too much potential revenue. I kinda wonder if the event version will still somehow be different. Maybe a slipcase, or a free gift with it. If not, the draw is not as intense. I'd say the same for the Gundam or other releases they'll have there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolt Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 1 hour ago, jvmacross said: So is this the first ever attempt at a simultaneous release across all of Bandai's global markets for a "Macross" item? That's a very interesting question, indeed. I hope the Macross name gets more and more attention globally. I think Bandai is thinking the same..

Tking22 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 I might bite, I love me some M&M variants, and I really like my Roy 0S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
technoblue Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 For me, the “genius” livery is sooo conflicting. I would love to see more uncommon and interesting non-canon paint schemes and I also like blue…but this is so on the nose: a VF-0S made up like the 1J. I need to think about it.

MILK THE PAINT! Either that or somebody informed them the color was wrong and they found a way to use the paint anyway? But probably not...

TheLoneWolf Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Max's color scheme really makes the VF-0 design pop! Now if we could only get some non-canon Fast Packs with this non-canon paint scheme. 😛 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Looks like it will be available for more than a month from the Tokyo store so hopefully that means it won't be so hard to come by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it'll be like the 10th anniversary VF-31J Kai and be event exclusive followed with a normal release later. Maybe a 15th anniversary outer sleeve for the event exclusive?

jvmacross Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 (edited) Not bad...but they should just have stuck with the Tamashii 15th logo by itself like they have in the past.....at least for the front of the box...I like the minimalist look... ...actually, I can't recall now and mine are stashed away...was the Tamashii 10th a slip-sleeve cover?

Instead of the traditional Tamashii logo, it’s a photo of the product. Same I believe with the other products that’s coming out during the event. E.g. Figuarts Miles Morales below sporting the same anniversary banner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radioguy Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 2 hours ago, no3Ljm said: So it’s not a box sleeve anymore? The photo you posted of the Max 0S certainly is. I had assumed there would be one for the event before you posted that. I just wonder if that's solely for the event, and whether the box underneath is designed to be salable alone (UPC, etc).

MKT Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 I guess we are used to nice art on HMR boxes, which can double up for some nice background display. The box on this HMR VF-0S Max will be stuffed together with Arcadia boxes - right at the back of a closet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
