Chronocidal Posted May 14 Posted May 14 Holy crap, it actually looks like an aircraft! Underside will be where all of the garbage is kept, obviously, and you can tell it's still a a pretty chunky block underneath, but still better than I expected them to pull off. If we even get the opportunity to pick one up, I might do it, just for the luls. Quote
PointBlankSniper Posted May 14 Posted May 14 Plane towing the container would be topkek rad 🤪 Anyway, I wonder if Bandai got insider info and realized they needed to compete against this mouth, teeth, and tongue. 🙃 Quote

MKT Posted May 14 Posted May 14 Hmmm I prefer if Transformers were Macross-fied, rather than Macross being Transformer-ed. Make the jets more sleek all around, rather than hanging more kibble & random bits underneath. Quote

Already looks typical Takara TF jet design of having entire robot underside kibble... edit: here's a twitter-post showing a better shot of the underside from https://x.com/TF_pr/status/1922471928675369343 full-size of the image is thru the twitter-link...

Froy Posted Tuesday at 06:00 AM Posted Tuesday at 06:00 AM Is it just me or that traier-vehicle mode is just Rodimus Prime? Quote

Scyla Posted Tuesday at 08:29 AM Posted Tuesday at 08:29 AM (edited) 2 hours ago, MKT said: I said it in the Transformers thread and I’m going to say it here. The color layout doesn’t work for me. Basara Prime looks neither like the VF-19 Kai nor like Optimus Prime. Keeping it in the VF-19 Kai color scheme would have helped. The trailer looks too much like Rodimus Prime and I can already hear people over at TFW bitch and moan about why this is not Hot Rodimus Prime. It also takes away too much from the main feature of the set: the Valkyrie. Of course Takara being Takara, thex weren’t able to paint the inside of the trailer in a neutral gray to make it less stand out when you place Basara Prime on it.

Chronocidal Posted Tuesday at 08:51 AM Posted Tuesday at 08:51 AM Honestly.. that's so dumb I kind of really want it. Quote
Black Valkyrie Posted Tuesday at 11:49 AM Posted Tuesday at 11:49 AM I don`t know what to say, it seems I won`t be getting it, what a shame. Quote
PointBlankSniper Posted Tuesday at 12:07 PM Posted Tuesday at 12:07 PM The VF-19's design has gone full circle and returned back to Orguss. Complete with the tank mode. Quote
MKT Posted Tuesday at 12:12 PM Posted Tuesday at 12:12 PM When I see truck mode, 2 things come to mind.. One being it looks like the Kai's behind is stuck in a barrel, and he can't dislodge himself. The other is that same mode somehow recalls a very old show: Quote
Test_Pilot_2 Posted Tuesday at 12:14 PM Posted Tuesday at 12:14 PM That Elvis sneer... the convoy mode. It's madness. Quote
twich Posted Tuesday at 03:31 PM Posted Tuesday at 03:31 PM I’m not sure what I think of this….it does remind me of G1 Rodimus Prime, and the 4th mode of the Valkyrie looks…..unique. i agree that it looks like a VF-19 Kai Fire Valk and Optimus Prime were having a threesome with an Orguss Twich Quote

Dangard Ace Posted Tuesday at 05:06 PM Posted Tuesday at 05:06 PM That tank mode looks like an old KO toy I used to have. Still considering ordering it. lol https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/the-vintage-bootleg-ko-fake-and-weird-stuff-thread.1192933/page-3#post-17930904 Quote
derex3592 Posted Tuesday at 06:40 PM Posted Tuesday at 06:40 PM (edited) This thing is SO FUGLY and tragically sad looking it's almost cute, like an old little blind dog with two teeth that you can't help but love (I should know, I have one) 😂 Edited Tuesday at 06:41 PM by derex3592 Quote

Chronocidal Posted Wednesday at 05:01 PM Posted Wednesday at 05:01 PM (edited) Eh, grabbed one at HLJ, the conversion from yen will take a bit of the edge off, and that's a really long wait to save up for. It's just so goofy I can't pass it up. Easiest HLJ preorder I've had in years, too. Edited Wednesday at 05:02 PM by Chronocidal Quote
