So the mechanism is more simple then we think? Hmm. This thing is looking mighty done. We may be seeing a December 31st/January 2014 release.
-
I'm in that regret mode too. Oh well. Thanks for posting pics for us. I like the fact that blue is a deeper shade then what most other people use.
-
I guess that would be a bummer for some of you guys, and at one time I would have lamented that scenario myself. At this point in time I'm comfortable with, and sometimes prefer, being able to decal my own Valks so it wouldn't personally bother me at this point. I still don't think they will do that, however.
-
Why wouldn't they? Except for the designer who didn't care for the kites on the 17 every other Valk has had them where they should be.
-
Shipping has been slow on mine. I won't see it until next week most likely.
-
Has anybody tried the waterslide decals yet? How are they? I've never put waterslides on before. Some tips before my 30th Anniversary arrive would be great.
-
Buying used toys is already a risk. Buying used Transformable Valkyries... that's a HUGE risk. It sucks the gunpod is broken but maybe a fix won't be that hard/obvious?
-
I like the fact that from the top-down the Tornado parts essentially give the VF-25 the profile of the YF-24.
-
The website says 17". For the space I was putting it in I wanted it to be at least 19". I do like things sparse but sometimes I want to put the Valks three rows deep and 19"-20" works better for that as well.
-
I kinda want the super packs for my Max 1J but I also kinda don't feel like searching for them. They don't really sit right on the Hi-Metal.
-
Wow, that's why they looked so familiar. I had checked those cases out but wasn't sold as they aren't deep enough for my liking.
-
What kind of cabinets are they? Where did you get them? Dust proof?
-
Odd, you were the one who pointed out that the last several years the QC has been good, which I agree with, as I have zero valks with shoulder problems (including my original release Hikaru 1A). It was Black Valkyrie who was repeating inaccurate, dated information as if it were still fact.
-
I do get tired of people who still repeat that nonsense.
-
To be honest the white and red looks cooler.
-
Wow, you're right, it isn't. Hmm. Are there any special waterslide decals that could go there instead?
-
Yeah, I'm confused by that as well. At first I thought this was a fourth color for a Hikaru version or something.
-
I'm not one to brag but I have a lot more money than that squared away. However, I would hope these things are spaced out a bit... I don't know if I could justify that many similar heads (don't look at all of my VF-1's, don't look at all of my VF-1's...)
-
I find Nerd-linger's paint scheme ideas fun. I'd love to see what other combinations/styles he could come up with. Do you have the Master File book? Could you do up a SVF-440 Dullahan's scheme for us to dream about?
-
At this stage the M&M releases would cost $200+. I'd probably have to rebuy them for the side-covers too... and replacement decals.
-
Yes. There's really no other way to do it though. That piece, canonically, is completely impossible to represent in the real world. Chronocidal is right, it winds up being a big brick that does nothing for any of the modes. Maybe they'll actually have it flip here. I don't know, but so far it looks like exactly the same transformation as the VF-19's and none of them had that 180 flip and I can't see how to make that any easier on this one.
-
Canonically yes, but on this toy no so the issue with the coloring of that spot still stands.
-
Every single one you've repainted I'd buy. Really, like the VF-4, this Valk has so many possibilities but I doubt Arcadia will release many. They've already said too many repaints are bad and it's better to have a base color. I'm sure plenty of people could mod the Isamu version... the only issue is the tolerances are so tight the paint won't last. No it doesn't. That's the side that faces forward in Battroid. His best bet would be either a colored highlight around the edge with white in the middle or a small swath of the non-white across the top like on the VF-19S/F. Seriously, nerd-linger, you just came up with a way for Arcadia to sell nine of these (including the original scheme) to me.

What's with the odd colored Regult?
