DestroidDefender Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 I've completed my Bandai 1/55 collection by getting a VF-1J reissue. I notice unlike the VF-1A, the Hikaru special does not come with a subsitute cockpit cover for battloid mode. I thought this would be a no brainer. Why supply a cover for some and not others in this series? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CID Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 The VF-1J was the first reisssued by Bandai. it did not include the cover. Subsequent reissues were included with covers. I am guessing that Bandai did not see the use for the cover initially. :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solscud007 Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 I believe they came out with the heatshield as an after thought to compete with Yamato's swappable heatshield design for thier 1/60 line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chowser Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 i wondered the same thing when I first got the VF-1J reissue. but it didn't matter much since he's always in battroid mode with GBP armor on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
