shinagami Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 (edited) hasegawa 1/72 scale vf-25g pre-order... http://www.hlj.com/product/HSG65826/Sci Edited February 20, 2014 by shinagami Quote
PetarB Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 The giant sound-system? I think this is where I get off the bus. Anyway, as usual, it seems like it's well-made by Hasegawa. Quote
mickyg Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 I've got one on preorder and I can assure you, the valko-blaster parts will remain in the box. Quote
ivorysniper Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 Same here. The sniper variant will go out with the huge Dragunov rifle on the ventral hardpoint, but the speakers might never see the light. Definitely don't like the aerodynamic drag they generate in my mind. Quote
chyll2 Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 you can probably modify and use it as thrusters for some big mecha Quote
electric indigo Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 Anybody planning to paint this in the CF scheme? Quote
Jefuemon Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 Just arrived an hour or so ago. You can build it as a regular, 1 seat fighter. It also includes NUNS decals, as well. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 I really hope someone builds it, and manages to wire real speakers for them to work. Quote
MJP Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Speakers, schmeakers, if there's a subwoofer in 1/72 scale it needs to go on this thing! Drop bombs AND the bass all at once! Quote
SebastianP Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 As I see it (I own the kit but it's still in my HLJ private warehouse so I haven't actually eyeballed it) Hasegawa made two mistakes with this kit - 1. They molded it in blue, making painting it a pain in the ass, and 2. They didn't (as far as I can tell) stick a regular gun pod in there, so you can't build it into an A without swiping the gun from an A/S kit. If they'd done those things, I guarantee kit number two would already be waiting as well. Given the amount of work needed to make an A (i.e. all the parts exist, we just need them boxed together) we'll likely see one released this year anyway, even if it's a limited edition. Hopefully we'll see some Super Parts soon as well. I really really really want a better option than the Bandai Super parts... Quote
modelglue Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Hopefully we'll see some Super Parts soon as well. I really really really want a better option than the Bandai Super parts... ...and an armoured, and a tornado, and a battroid. A guy can dream. But anyways, I like that Hase' went ahead with this esoteric (read: one-off) example. That's a good trend for us model guys. Quote
Zinjo Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 Just arrived an hour or so ago. You can build it as a regular, 1 seat fighter. It also includes NUNS decals, as well. I am sooo loving that Hasegawa is releasing these fighters!! I am sure the 25G is only a precursor to a future VF-25A release and the milking of the design for years to come with new paint schemes and decal sets... Quote
