It's really very simple. About as hard as using this forum.
-
Yeah, actually that same piece on mine was broken right out of the box. But there was enough tension in the shoulder joints to hold it in place regardless so it didn't bother me too much.
-
Thanks Seto. Another one: do you know if the VF-4's shoulders can rotate in-universe, or are its arm movements actually severely limited compared to other fighters, like its toy representation?
-
Is there anything written on the circumstantial advantages of using the gun pod in-hand vs. on the turret and vice versa, for the VF-31 series? Why have both options and not just one or the other like most other valks?
-
I'm the opposite actually, the 19F wing type is one of my favs, more than the 29 or the 19A.
-
Has this thing tightened up at all the loose wings present in the -19ADVANCE due to the high speed gimmick?
-
A good updated yf-21 ( from whoever) is my holy grail.
-
The ECA possibly causing the valk to become more padding squishy or deformed is certainly an idea I hadn't considered. Interesting. This reminds me of how the yf-21 moves it's wings.
-
So this is a question for the materials engineers... Even with the "energy converting armor" and super scifi metal, in battroid mode, wouldn't the pointy spiky bits like the control surfaces on the valkyries come under ridiculous torsion stresses in anything resembling hand to hand combat or being pushed up against a wall or something?
-
Fighter camos itself to the pilot's flight suit? "Look, no one's flying this plane!"
-
I agree, it looks like a bit of a mess, but more importantly it seems like a nightmare for the toy joints. Or maybe it needs a bunch of those separate braces we all know and love.
-
Freaky.
-
What are the runes attached to? Hair? Or are they a part of some sort of head tentacle hidden by hair?
-
Seriously, I’m on my fourth abortive attempt. One of these days though, I’ll finish it!
-
I would kill for a Nothung DX!
-
I think the point is that, at least the fighter development aspect is not as implausible as you think it is.
-
Yeah I mean it's fine, but not at the expense of floppy wings, which neither Arcadia nor Bandai seemed to able to deal with
-
Well you know. That's our real hobby: complaining. Macross is incidental.
-
My main thing is I hope they did something about those crap wings in high speed mode. If it were up to me I'd have ditched high speed mode altogether for more sturdy wings, but that ship has probably sailed.
-
It's weird, the 31 shows two different battroid pod storage poses in Delta - one where it's completely retracted, and another where it kinda just sits half way on the back. They both seem to serve the same function.
-
Oh god is that the v1 VF-25. Forgot how ugly that thing is, especially standing next to all the pretties.
-
Re: charger pods on VF-31A's- I like to think they may have some other function or other hardware contained in that housing than just drone charger. It's not infeasible, despite no on-screen evidence. Even the charging thing was only shown once ever.
-
Markup is % increase from base price, in this case 21,000JPY, so it's a little above 50%. Source: I'm a supply chain analyst in my day job, as if that's something to be proud of
-
The only valk I threw was the Version 1 VF-25S with armor parts. Right against the side of a dumpster. Got so mad at thing.
-
I'm sorry who is this character? She looks cool.
