505thAirborne Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Here a gimmick, No broken parts at all. For the proposed $500+ price tag, better not be anything breaking!!
nightmareB4macross Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 What's the cartoon catalogue under the ARMD? Is Yamato considering to re-start where Imai left off on the 1/6 scale figs?
Project Phoenix Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 It's just saying this kit shown here is a prototype model to test the shape. The actual final product may be different.
MechTech Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 I've been away from the toys thread TOOooo long! This thing is huge (as will be the price tag). - MT
EXO Posted March 18, 2009 Author Posted March 18, 2009 you probably can't tell from previous pictures but the 1/60 Destroid Tomahaks underneath kinda gives you an idea...
Dobber Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 Would you guys want the "arms" to be detachable so that you could have scaled ARMD's to escort the sdf-1...or to just zoom around Looks like it would be fairly simple to do. Chris

505thAirborne Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 When you see the Destroids underneath the SDF-1, you really do get the sense of shes a Big A$$ Ship!!! I'll find room one way or the other to display this one!!
ruskiiVFaussie Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 Would be easy enough to mod the valks to make em magnatized! I hope they invent a wide range of 1/2000 accessories as well. 1/2000 Q-Rau and TV/SDF-1 Max... drooolzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
todd77 Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 Here a gimmick, No broken parts at all. For the proposed $500+ price tag, better not be anything breaking!! Or sagging. Those joints had better be tight in order to burden those giant legs and the ARMDs, particularly in fortress mode. My WAVE SDF-1 currently exhibits a bit of both symptoms.
505thAirborne Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 If Yamato is wise enough as far as joints go, they'll take the retro approach and use solid metal parts for the joints & arms. No plastic. For $500.00 it should feel like a solid & heavy toy.
geepogi Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 It's just saying this kit shown here is a prototype model to test the shape. The actual final product may be different. it may be the tv version.

UN Spacy Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 Those are the stickers Save mentioned. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=29445
eugimon Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 If Yamato is wise enough as far as joints go, they'll take the retro approach and use solid metal parts for the joints & arms. No plastic. For $500.00 it should feel like a solid & heavy toy. I really hope so. i'm hoping for metal throughout the arm, metal joints with some sort of locks and metal brackets in the shoulders to take the stress of the ARMDS hanging off them like that in ship mode.
m0n5t3r Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 oh... haven't visited that thread yet... good to know...
Radd Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 Sorry, still gotta root for the movie version. I'm unlikely to ever get my dream toy, a 1/48 VF-4, so I want this at least! Still, I hope the tv version fans get their toy, too.
logos Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 So it'll probably be almost twice as tall as the Quarter. OHHHHHHH YES! Now if I can just afford both.
alfye Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Mag scan. source 65 cm tall in attack mode. offtopic: Upper left, there is a big image of Cathy decal! I want it!!!
SchizophrenicMC Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Holy giant robot spaceship, Batman! That's huge. I'm gonna need to move a shelf down to make room.
eriku Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Wow, 65cm is huge. We're going to need to fill out adoption papers in order to bring one of these home.
505thAirborne Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 How can you not love it, When its shown in full color and the Storm Attacker pics comes out, Its money saving time!!
Cyclone Trooper Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 (edited) Well we at least have a definite length on this thing...65 centimeters (nearly 26 inches). That's 2.13 feet of Macross goodness! Edited March 20, 2009 by Cyclone Trooper
jenius Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 It looks a bit chunky undereath those front gun booms.
Batou Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 I'm secretly hoping this stupid thing is sooooo limited I can't get my hands on one. Because I might just be willing to part with a kidney by the time I see that thing painted up ... I can't help myself ...
kyatsu Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 65 cm? thats 2.13 ft wow, this maybe the last toy i will get for macross but if yamato were to make 1/48 elintseeker and ostrich, then that's a different story
MechTech Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 It will have to have a warning label on it " Warning - Keep away from children, it may fall on them and crush them." - MT
Kicker773 Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 65 cm? thats 2.13 ft wow, this maybe the last toy i will get for macross but if yamato were to make 1/48 elintseeker and ostrich, then that's a different story No but NB4M will
kyatsu Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 guess will have to talk to NB4M about that No but NB4M will
505thAirborne Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 I really hope so. i'm hoping for metal throughout the arm, metal joints with some sort of locks and metal brackets in the shoulders to take the stress of the ARMDS hanging off them like that in ship mode. Lets keep our fingers crossed!!!
