A non-PF VF-0D, using plastic colors similar to the HMR VF-0D, would be insta-bought... (as in, a VF-0D in the right colors, but without having to pay hundreds of extra dollars just to get those correct base colors)
-
Same---still waiting for Max and Milia. I refuse to buy any DX VF-1 before that. Doesn't need a single new part, and can re-use 90% of the tampo printing. Just need new pilot names and modex numbers...

With Macross Seven? It's gonna be Basara Prime, or Rodimus Song. Mylene/Arcee/MAXL would definitely work though, if they make a 2nd one...

Well, the Shield Liger-Optimus has a ton of new parts, but the Godzilla OP and Megs look like minimal-effort repaints. So Basara's valk could run the gamut--I didn't instantly recognize the silhouette they showed, but it looks like it has half a VF-19 hanging upside down off its back. So likely a re-shell of an existing mold.

I really like the Aces of Aviation HELMETS, I'd buy all of them, for display. But I'm not paying $$$ to get a whole big figure, just for the helmet...

Getting this instead of dark green, or even better, Elvis pearl-white, is just mind-boggling...

Yeah, I was thinking "starting with an unpainted one" might be the easiest option, than trying to remove certain bits of markings and REpaint. "First time they've ever been painted", in red, of simple stripes, would be easier for the wings and tailfins. Take the legs/fuselage/armor of this one, "blank" wings and tailfins, and go from there, if you want a truly G1 Jetfire.
-
I was thinking similarly---red FAST packs alone are almost worth it. A Hikaru DYRL VF-1S was never that far off to customize, especially if you used some bits from a Hikaru TV 1J. But "completely repainting every bit of dark blue-grey-green FAST packs into bright red" is difficult for most anybody, especially if you want it to survive more than one removal of them.
-
Yeah, I'd be more inclined to buy it if it was "blank" or more Autobot-esque markings---no diamond kite, no skulls, no UN SPACY. To get "proper" Autobot colors, will take more than just some insignia stickers---you'll need to repaint some areas. Could be just me, but the white skulls on the red tailfins seem especially odd---like, you gotta have a black background for white skulls. They are the #1 thing I think "it'd look better if they'd left them off".

Hi-Metal R Fire Bomber (VF-19 Fire Valkyrie, VF-11 MAXL, VF-17T)
David Hingtgen replied to sh9000's topic in Toys
I'd be happy if they did, as there's zero chance I'll buy Basara's, so Mylene's doesn't need to "fit" with it. Though with Arcadia seemingly refusing to reissue the VF-19F/VF-19S, HMR versions of those based on this one, may be my only option for non-insane money...- 242 replies

David Hingtgen replied to sh9000's topic in Toys
If they make the MAXL the same *size* then it'll be a way different scale, like 1/85...- 242 replies

It's August now---any consensus on best transformation video etc? Have any of the new ones "discovered" anything that the earlier ones missed? (still eagerly awaiting AnyMoon/Scorched Earth's)
