Sweet! Do the missiles come with the fold booster or are they a seperate set by themselves? How on earth do they attach to the DX toy?

Well, the site is quoting from Newtype Magazine, so I don't think so. And a Q-Rea is a given in 1/60 and (hopefully) 1/72 scale!

Somehow I prefer the classic glaug though.

Yes, but his amazing signature covers many faults.

It has, still, maybe the increased importance of Klan is an admission that moe-Ranka has failed and they need another character to attract all the lolicons? Or maybe Klan was chosen because she can attract two types of fans at the same time?

I'd put it down to pride and stupidity-- given that they themselves developed the VF-27 from the YF-24, why did they think that other fleets wouldn't improve on the basic design as well?

Saji is nowhere near half as cool as the Green/White Power Ranger!

Check this out for a quick and easy way to panel line and weather your models: http://www.promodeller.com/promodellers-weathering-wash/ It worked great for my 1/72 VF-25S!

Come on Pete you should know better than that! Women would never admit the truth about Sex and the City!

Hmm... the hip guns are still out of position though... I think its just a problem with the kit.

You have to admit, the Lancer has that 80s look about it.

Dude, it just came out. Bootlegs will probably take longer For some reason Yamato doesn't seem to suffer from the bootleg problem though. Jenius has a great review site up, check it out at www.anymoon.com. Otherwise just google it, there are some korean and japanese review sites with alot more pictures. Negotiator: Too bad there's no miracle fix for the legs in fighter mode VFTF: I know you're being so negative to suppress your inner urges to get the DX, no matter the looks! Don't worry, once you fix the model kit up it is so gorgeous that the urge to buy the DX will fade! It just didn't fade enough for me Come and join the chunky monkey side! Seriously, with all the bad-mouthing about the proportions and inaccuracies about the DX, there actually are some areas where it is more accurate than the model kit! I noticed this during my Macross F marathon yesterday. Firstly, the way the bottom hinge of the gunpod opens up and slides back over the lower receiver. Second, the details on the 25F head like the diamond port just above the eyes, and the position of the crest (which is reversed on the 1/72 25F). Third, the side of the feet with respect to the lower legs (too big in the model kit). Finally, surprise surprise, although the details of the landing gears are wrong, the rear landing gear is actually at the correct relative height from the ground compared to the hangar scenes! Unfortunately, the DX still requires some partsforming (the hip guns at least) for the attachment of the Super parts. Otherwise, this would be another major advantage of the DX over the 1/72 kit, which requires removal of many parts, especially in the legs, for the Super parts.

Good for you! Hopefully enough people join in so that there will be enough demand for the rarer valks!

Nice... all you need to complete that picture is a VF-0D! Where art thou Yamato!

From what I've seen, I think Luca's Ghosts will come with attachments that allow them to be placed on the SMS action base stand that you still have to buy separately from the model kit itself. Hikuro--- the prices are high because the US dollar sucks so badly right now-- its MSRP is actually 6500 yen, and I've pre-ordered it for 5850 yen.

I think it looks great!

Well in the last episode Klan and Luca brought Alto's VF out as well, but that was a dotted line.

Sweet, thanks! That's really good news! I guess that means that the Ozma Super pack pre-orders should open up next month then? Graham: Thanks for your pictures! That Ozma looks good. Finally a non-destructive tweak that makes the neck on the VF-25S show up! Yep that's exactly it, Negotiator--I don't know how I missed that picture, I guess great minds think alike!

I already got mine, thanks.

I think that the Q-Rea looks great!

Except that the VF-1J was released with only a Super parts option? I thought that didn't really make sense as well.

Thanks for the scans! They look great! Also, the SMS Action base stands are coming out in February as well, seems like it will be a big month for model kit releases! Does anybody know what the text on the first scan about the Sheryl Decals says?

Thanks for the translations, Azrael. Are there any new views of the VF-27 in the liner notes?

Now, if only they could find a permanent solution to the VF-1 shoulders...

I guess you could go with the movie versions then-- the Gallia IV sets are limited exclusives from all current information, and even harder to order than Alto/Ozma's Super packs.
