I still wonder which would sell better, the SDFM or DYRL version. While DYRL is bigger in Japan (and with most Macross fans I guess) the SDFM version is also the, like it or not, Robotech version. Older fans would jump at one, if they were aware it existed. That's a world wide interest here (provided we can all remember this thing from 1983) simply because it was more widely viewed across the planet by Macross and Robotech fans.

VF-4 scratchbuild from Model Graphix 209 & 210
Mommar replied to dialNforNinja's topic in The Workshop!
I think both of those modes are interesting interpretations and the Battroid in particular is very imposing (save for the incredibly stupid feet) but I like the Yamato better because it's damn near the look of the lineart in all three modes and can actually transform. The Battroid here, while cool, is too busy and doesn't at all look like a Kawamori design. -
In terms of cruiser mode they're really rather different in many respects.
-
COnsidering how little it would take to modify the current VF-17 I don't see why making a whole new vinyl version would be a good idea. Maybe the Maxl.

THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Like I said before, I think it's just to cover potential fluctuations in the pre-order prices. Once the 171 was released it was cheaper other places and NY offered to upgrade my shipping or give me a discount on other Macross Merchandise. They're keeping that money one way or another but they did offer additional value for the increase.

Boy, the Gerwalk on this and the 5000B look bad-ass. I want a toy now Yamato!
-
Man, I really like that Gerwalk mode. It's like a hybrid of the VF-1 and VF-11.
-
I'm with dialN, if I could swing it I'd have at least three for each mode as well. As it stands I keep hovering over my one pre-order considering a second. I really love the Battroid design and seeing it painted and standing I'm becoming a believer in Gerwalk (much like what happened with me and the VF-17) too.

Looks like US $360.97 at LocusHK now. Before shipping.

Hopefully they know this.

Nice and clean man. The West Side. Taylor Ranch. How about you? I know all about the graceful looking. Especially from head on in Fighter and Gerwalk it's so sleek. -
So here's the real question.... how many VF-4's Kicker? I'll be disappointed at anything less than a 20 grand armada. LOL
-
*IF* Yamato ever released a 1/3000 SDFM version of the SDF-1 I would pay $500.
-
Huh, I'm all confused. I could have sworn the F was October and the D was August or September but sure enough the websites are saying the F is August. That's a hell of a streak really. F beginning of September. G beginning of October (likely anyway), D beginning of November, P beginning of December and VF-4 in January... this is murder man. And that's not even considering the possibility of Luca's 25, or 171 and/or a CF 171 appearing sometime between now and then.

The chest guns on mine easily slide off. I had to glue them down so they would stop.
-
I don't know, this might be some sort of numbers test too. If they see numbers high enough they might decide to pull the trigger and release more? I don't know how these business decisions work.
-
As far as I can tell we've all pre-ordered via Nippon-Yasan and they haven't required payment yet. I can't speak about Yamato proper. How many?
-
The shipping was higher for my 171 as well, they asked if I wanted an automatic upgrade to Fed Ex later once the item was about to ship otherwise I could get a credit on another Macross item. So it's high now but you might be able to angle it to your liking later.
-
Well... great. has anybody attempted some sort of a coat to protect that part of the paint?
-
Well i just bought a spare VF-0A for this conversion so I'd be happier with your project going forward rather than not.
-
I'll third it. I've had no troubles with them yet.
-
I'm now wondering if our 171's are going to become scrapped up from the EX armor as well now.
