There was a re-release not too long ago. It came out about the same time the 1/48 WS Roy was released. Keep an eye out you can still find some at decent prices.

I soooooo want the Pan figure!!!! I've been wanting all the characters ever since I saw the movie.

I just hope this isn't another smoke an mirror trick like Toynami has always pulled in the past. Abracadabr....... ......2025 ahhhhh

Here is are a few pics I took at this year. My favorites were Rob's TH & Exo's Konig Monster SMS Variant. Here's the Customs Contest table and the cake as well. Thanks to all involved for putting a great con together. I swear these cons get better, year after year.

The head could have fallen off during packaging. From all the protoype pics, there has never been a designated screw to retain the head in place. Can someone post a pic?

If you went to this year's con, you would have thought twice before making that statement.

How about pics? The problem could stem from two things: 1. Weak screw tension. 2. Nub on the black lock is worn or warped.

That looks great! Hope this first custom isn't your're last. Keep it up!

Nice Kit!! See being patient pays handsomely. Nice to see a kit in grey.

I'll take take five. At least we know this will go towards a good cause and the sketch will go to a good home. MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE!!!!!

dnd - Nothing like this has occured nor am I stating or implying this is anything like what I have created. This is completely Yamato's interpretation of the VF-1D, based on their ability to go off ambiguous line-art. QuinJester - Thanks for looking out. Let's all keep calm and be civil while were at it.

You can't go wrong at that price.

Another thing to note on the 1/60 is the chest. The hump will be much longer and nowhere near the lineart references. I really wish Yamato would have designed this new 1/60 as a ONE seater platform. It's not like Graham doesn't have pics of what should be done to make it work properly, as a two seater.

The only way you could make the cockpit accomodate two pilots is by elongating the canopy forward just behind the antiglare sheild and back to where the hinge on the a standard VF-1 would be. Believe me it works this way.

And kiss your wallet goodbye! Congrats!

That looks pretty good in battroid, but let's wait to see the final product. I just hope the pilots aren't crammed inside the canopy (meaning we'd have amputee pilots).

I'm working on something totally new.

That's about right, $40.00 seems to be the standard for a 1/48 from HLJ. I bought some a while back. For the price their being sold for, it's a steal for the purchaser.

I would like one of each please!!!

Shhhh, you'll blow his cover as a co-conspirator.

Hmmm.. Battroid - Like most everything but that damn giraffe neck. It's the only part that keeps killing it for me. GERWALK - This is picture perfect. Fighter - Nice, but I still prefer the 1/48 fighter over this. Likes: Telescoping head. Double jointed elbows. Telescoping knees. Spectra sheen canopy. Hands. Dislikes: Detachable escape pod. Legs (a bit slender). Wrists (shape is kind of weird). Head (a tad on the small side). Neck.....don't get me started. Still, I want to own at least one.

Definitely not a drawing. Two items that give it away as a Hasegawa model: 1. Ultra skinny feet. 2. Ball jointed thumbs.

Read two posts up.

Well you might get lucky and have it released to the masses in the V.2 1/60. But then again, that would be yet another slap in the face. Either way, it still looks as though this might just be sprayed on paint overall and have the markings screwed up like on some of the WS Roy(s). Just who is 111? I thought Max was 102 in the TV SDFM.

A bit harsh... I would think this is in direct response to the mass appeal of TV Max. I personally would NOT want Yamato to make any exclusives for the V.2 1/60, I'd much rather they keep moving forward with the 1/48s.
