Maybe not-- after all, it broke because the VF was hit and he probably hit his head against the inside of the cockpit. Onto the larger issue-- the wonders of the plot device that is the ISC means that there is no need to change the animation style for higher gs--- because if a previous series pilot was pulling 9Gs, and a MF pilot was pulling 27Gs but the ISC reduced the effect to 9Gs, the animation effects would be the same.

If you mean the BD/DVD release, no.

Thanks for the reviews! I can't wait to get my own 1/100 and check it out.

Aww mann... thanks for screwing all of us early buyers, Bandai.

It's the Hippocow soft serve ice cream that he needs to lay off

Heh I read the same article. The reasoning behind it is not entirely sound though.

Looks like with Yamato if its not one part breaking its another! I hope this is a one off incident, and good luck with OD

OOOh all white versions of Sheryl and Ranka? Looks good! I get the feeling white may be a significant theme in the movie, seeing as to how all these models are coming out with a white version (see Ranka's Monster Girl). Also, I didn't know Zentradi female vacuumsuits had high heels! Must be hell to fight in those!

Amen to that! I think the problems are to do with the complicated wing glove area.. its just impossible to get everything to line up properly.

Would the Cathy decal come with every set?

not much fun drawing a valkgirl from a valkgirl is there?

...With a Mechanically scanned array, still none or minimal air-to-ground capabilities and having to deal with all the Euro-bickering? No thanks P.S. I've got nothing against the Typhoon as an aircraft, I'm just really frustrated that all the politics surrounding it are hindering the development, when old aircraft like F-15s can get AESA, and Block 60 F-16s can Supercruise, and just about every other fighter has some LO stylings--- what does the Typhoon have that makes it better than those fighters I wonder? Not to mention that all the composites used in the airframe to reduce weight are going to come back and bite it in the ass 10 years down the road.

I hope the data on the VF-27 would be more significant! It's really the first look we have at it, and I can't wait for HQ scans to show up on your website

We do see Alto pull so much g's in the last episode that his helmet glass breaks.

You can't say that they pulled the same maneuvers because you have no objective reference. For example, you see both the VF-1 and the VF-25 bank to the right-- but the VF-1 could be pulling 7 Gs and the VF-25 could be pulling 27 Gs but you wouldn't know the difference unless you were standing far enough away to see the turn radius/turn rate, or maybe sitting in both planes and feeling the Gs.

Yep my bad.

Great! I hope to see two new reviews tomorrow then! I really hope the VF100s line succeeds because I think it is about the only way we can have all the valks from all the series together in the same scale.

Yea! And I guess I probably soaked it in water a little too long too-- the decals started to tear and fall apart. Oh well. Stickers just seem less fussy to me, I don't have much problem aligning them.

You're welcome . I just hope someone can come along to translate this and confirm my guesses so that Mr March's amazing site can be updated Also, I have added some observations about the RVF-25 and the Super VF-25F as I look through the manuals in detail and start to build the kits. Those are highlighted in red.

Very true! I should be receiving my 1/100 in a few days.. we shall see how it goes. Worst case, they become permanent displays on my wall cabinet

Yep if you wanna play with it the toy is the way to go!

I guess-- I've had better luck with stickers though I remember my first decalling experience--totally screwed up a Nimitz carrier.

Nope. None at all.

Not yet-- he's missing the GNU-DOU

Well, given that the Macross Chronicle seems to be far from done with the VF-1.... You never know the relevant data may just pop up in the Chronicles if you are lucky Oh well, I guess it is kind of an impossible task then, unless something comes up. I agree, there are far better things to spend you time on.
