On Jan 23rd I posted the DYRL version....now there is a tv version! The DYRL version sold for 10100 yen...wow The TV version is for sale too! Check out the 'underneath the deck' of the Prometheus and Daedalus pics on the auctions site, super neat. https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/m1221388661

Since everything post-production has been basically done before, it would be nice to see some pre-prod items....like that vf-1d or a Breast Fighter or the early SDF-1 design So many opportunities for new things with the Macross flavor.

I don't ever remember seeing the packaging for that one, actually looks like they spent some time on it. Space Castle...super endless transformations, neat What is Space Castle #1? Then the obvious, is there #3 and more?

If I recall, that model can be seen in the other model thread showing off cool builds...its the one where the SDF-1 actually rises up in flight yeah this one right?

Maybe when you finish this one, you wrap it up and send it off to @jenius for one of his toy reviews! It would be great seeing this in HD video going through all the improvements over the base 1/55.

@jenius Awesome review thanks for sharing! They should call this Hellboy mode!

Just so weird its cool...wow

Great thanks for the info. Going to try and vt1 backpack swap with my vf1d just to see how it looks next weekend

I sort of meant the entire backpack part, both fins attached and all, its just gotta be a screw or two right? guess now I'd have the orange and the light tan being off...I'll just need to close one eye when I squint

Can I just re-rant on Bandai completely blowing it on the VT-1 tailfins...seriously this looks idiotic. I have a burner DX VF-1D...how hard is it to swap out the tailfin backpack on a DX? Where are the DX disassemblers around here...is it hard? The orange on the VF-1D is slightly off, but maybe it wouldn't be that noticeable if I squint.

I guess it makes sense right They are doing another release of the VF-1S GBP in April 2026 or something I thought They just keep the factory running and put out a bunch more VF-1S valks in prep for the August 2026 release Hopefully end of this year we'll see something non VF-1J and non VF-1S...unless they pause the DX line and go with the 1/55 they were showcasing When is the next anniversary, 2027 for the 45th? That is when we'll likely see a CF DX VF-1, it would make sense its in episode 1 Unless they pause even harder and just release the DX SDF-1 at that time Taking bets now! 😛 2026 is the year of Fockers!

Sorry these types or requests are not permitted in these forums....but I believe you can find super cheap blu-ray players at goodwill (seriously!

This would look really cool on my shelf at night for sale! Just $430 https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/u1216907753 "The light spots on the hull are flashing, but not flashing brightly, just occasionally for a moment. There are about six different patterns with different timing that make it seem like it slowly disappears."

That is going to be LARGE!!!

damn you!! 😛
