The point is nastalgic is on Yamato side which lead to this milestone of constant improvements of the VF-1s. Unless the new waves of kids has knowledge of the 80s stuff. But I don't foresee the VF-1s to last another decade or two.
As soon as the wave of 80s kids that grew up watching and playing with Macross toys begins to dwindle (dies), Yamato has no further reason(s) to continue its improvements for the VF-1s.
I'm disappointed in you! How can you not see this coming??! The molds on the V2 1/60 has a two-seater, the VT-1, VE-1 and everything else in between.
It is safe to foresee many possibilities....
All this talk about hurting the wallet is definitely not hurting mine. I think Yamato is moving to freakin SLOW...... I'd have liked it better if its a different valk each month.
Too lazy to browse through it.
Anyways, I'm really glad I got rid of some of my 1/48s. These 1/60 V2 seems so right in terms of design, size and price! I'm so looking forward to the MG, LV1, LV2, Stealth Strike set and the Angelbirds.
We were talking about the color scheme of the VF-1's jets. Regardless, the yellow/black is there already.
However, the LV Focker which I recall had a split second of screen shot from the episodes.
The Focker is universal in DYRL and TV already.
You should have seen what the LV1 goes for. I'm sure Yamato would love to make one for the V2 line.
I don't foresee this for couple reasons. Majority of the line are in 1/60 scale. The price would be much higher and not everyone can easily afford a $200 dollar toy. Why do you think there's a V2 for the 1/60 from the get-go rather than a 1/48 V2?
Hmm... 80% is not good enough. I'd rather have 97% close to the prototype. Anyways, I thought Yamato would have given the fan a Misa in the passanger seat?!
IMHO, I suspect my last haul from HLJ was over charged in shipment to cover the lost from their "On Sale" items. What is more disturbing is that I placed much larger order with Orverdrive and the shipping was about what HLJ charged me and both were EMS.
HLJ lost my business when it comes to bulk orders!
It looks YUMMieeeee! Wow, I'm quite impress with the VE-1!!
However, I'd would have loved it if it came with some weapons just like the old 1/55 despite it not being an attack vehicle.
I do suspect the VE-1 to be delayed just like the VT-1.
