    Just received mine from HLJ at my office. Can't really play with it here though as gotta work But I did briefly take it out of the box for a minute. Initial comments: 1) It's bigger than I thought it would be. I've always thought the VF-2SS was quite a small Valk, so the size suprized me. 2) Plastic does look cheap. 3) Not much detail or panel lines, but that's not really Evolution's fault, the original lineart doesn't have a great deal of detail either. 4) Box art is pretty spiffy. More comments later after I have time to actually handle and transform it.

    Personally, I never really liked this kit, due to the extreme down angle of the nose.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Yeah, the location of the rear landing gear is one of the current unresolved mysteries of the VF-31. The panels on the underside of the wing are clearly the forearm shield and the hand cover. There definitely doesn't seem to be any panels on the wing for rear landing gear. And unlike the YF-30, there don't appear to be any doors on the VF-31's shin for the rear landing gear. Bu the VF-31A underside line-art clearly shows what appear to be front landing gear doors, so we have to assume that the VF-31 series doe's have landing gear.

    I think I'm in love.

    Damn, that's really not what I want to hear:(

    Sad to hear the fighter mode doesn't lock together well, as that's always my favorite mode.

    Here's a clear and close-up a shot of the gunpod(?) detached from the weapon pod and shown in the VF-31J's hand from the cover of Figure-Oh magazine. Sure looks like a gunpod to me, but the question is is it shell firing or an energy (beam) gun, or other? Graham

    Personally, I've always had zero interest in a live-action Macross movie, regardless of whether it is from Japan or Hollywood. A live-action Hollywood movie would likely be too Americanized and loose much of what makes "Macross". Anyway, we already had the live action Macross Plus adaptation "Stealth", and look how well that turned out Live-action Japanese sci-fi movies have never impressed me either with acting or special effects and would probably end up looking like a Super-Sentai show (which I hate).

    As the plastic has been described as cheesy, I'm thinking a piece of sliced cheese could be cut to shape and used to cover the underside bars

    Defintely buying the 6" Sabine, Ashoka and Kanan figures.
  11. Graham
    Yeah, me too.

    To be honest, I can live with the underside swing bars, they are not pretty, but I'm seldom gonna look at the fighter mode from the underside and will just have to avoid loooking at it from the front......hahaha. Apart from either having 3 different swapable hip joint parts like the Bandai kit had, or having a removable white plastic cover piece to hide the hip bars in Fighter mode, I can't think what else Evolution could have done.

    I just wished back in the day we'd got the Aliens sequel we all wanted, with the Aliens getting back to Earth and a mass infestation breaking out and Hicks, Ripley, Bishop and Newt along with Colonial Marines and other Earth armed forces fighting for the survival of mankind. Instead of that shitty dog alien in a prision movie we got......urghh

    Easy pass for me, as I've never been into films that use flashy, unrealistic wirework fighting. I far prefer films were the fight scenes are as realistic as posible and showcase proper skill at arms.

    Yukikazi, otherwise known as Brokeback air force.

    I really hope this is not Banpresto VF-1 bad....urghhh
  17. Graham
    Errr..........ok, not sure what's being said there. Mmm.......cheesy!
  18. Graham
    Ohhh........I like that pic. Yeah, it does look good next to the VF-1.
  19. Graham
    I like it from certain angles (like the ones in the photos above.....haha), but I really wanna hear about how well it locks together in the three different modes. I'm preying it's not a froppy mess. Well, I've paid HLJ. So now begins the agonizing wait for the snails at HLJ to actually get it out of the door.

    I sure hope that's not her everyday normal speaking voice. If I was her boyfriend or husband, I'd probably end up taping her mouth shut or gagging her to stop her squeaking speaking. Her voice would drive me bonkers otherwise if I had to listen to it everyday.......hahah

    I'm passing on this one. My one Yamato VF-4G is enough. To be honest, I've never been a huge VF-4 fan anyway.
  22. Graham
    Buying the Dropship and the APC for certain.
  23. Graham
    I too loved Predators and was hoping for a direct sequel. The original Predator is of course the best movie, but I have a soft spot for Predator 2 as well.

    Just got my HLJ payment request.
