    it gives it a nice look, kinda similar to the Bandai Hi-Metal R VF-4G in the Focker color scheme. Twich

    I know that it is a translation, but I am still having hard time piecing together what that said: they are redesigning the hinges on the YF-21? it might release in a few years? what hinges? The belly plates, underside folding plates, or the side pieces the pushed in out of the way for the arms? Or the legs that would randomly fall off? don’t get me wrong, would love to see a PF YF-21.

    I don’t think that the way it transformed had anything to do with it: the YF-21 blew up, the YF-19 survived…. the YF-21 had morphing wing and control surfaces that were very expensive to make and yes, probably a nightmare to maintain the BDS/BDI system was also expensive and had some unforeseen side effects, I.e. the YF-21 forcing the VF-11B into the dirt with an errant thought, not the most stellar of Opsie’s Twich

    I for one am really excited over this. Have always wanted a transforming toy of this, never could afford the Arcadia 1/60 version. I Really like the HMR VF-0S, so I know that this will be a winner for me! Twich

    Gone too is his Elintseeker role. Twich

    Looking at the view of the top down, the YF-21 looks to have an air brake that hinges up. Pretty cool, to match that one landing scene in the anime. Twich

    Bandai Sv-262 DX valk

    Still nice to see them use the mold for another SV-262. If this sells well, we might see some further versions of the mold brought out. Twich

    I am really looking forward to this, as the Arcadia one on the secondary market goes for 85,000 yen! Twich

    Bandai Sv-262 DX valk

    twich replied to seti88's topic in Toys

    While it looks visually the same, to include the gaps from the Keith custom, I wonder if they did any mold changes? Twich

    So I have had the Bandai Hi-Metal R VF-0S for about a week now, but was only able to really do anything with it this morning due to work. When trying to get the landing gear bay doors open and get the landing gears connected to the talk within those bays, I ran into the fact that the tires on the landing gears are a rubbery plastic (TPU?) and the tires come off! Someone commented earlier that the landing gears were an improvement, I would agree! I am really liking this representation of the VF-0S, since I have been unable to afford any other version out there, and hope that they continue to Macross Zero line in the Hi-Metal R and give us the VF-0D shin custom and the VF-0A Shin custom, along with the Ghost set! Let us hope that Bandai continues with Macross Zero for Hi-Metal R! Twich

    I got a few new toys recently….. the first is my new side by side that I have set up to plow. It is a CFMOTO ZForce 950 H.O. Sport. the second is the Bandai Hi Metal R VF-0S Twich

    so now that we do have some information from the Macross Delta 2nd movie, I have a question about the VF-31AX Kairos Plus. The VF-31 Siegfried has an up tuned version of the FF-3001A which gives it 1875kN x2 of thrust. The base VF-31A has the standard FF-3001A which has 1645kN x2 of thrust. Which does the VF-31AX have? Does it even explain it? If they increased the amount of fold quartz and also increased the size of the arm mounted rail guns, would it not make a little sense to increase the output of the engines? I imagine the new gunpod of the VF-31AX has increased power demands over the standard LU-18. Also, how many SV-262's did they have to junk to get the weapon systems off of? Just some musing questions that I hope someone can answer. Twich

    I just got one of these for the first time a month or so ago.....After my 14 year old helped me put on the really small stickers, I have to say that it is an amazing design and the toy is very clean and I have not had any issues whatsoever with missiles coming off at all. I am glad that I can say that I have an Arcadia 1/60 VF-4A in my collection! Twich

    I also asked for VF-2SS SAP, VF-2JA, Metal Siren and re-release of VF-25S Armored pack bundle(renewal version) Twich
  17. twich
    Just got this today, wow! What an adventure getting that armor on! This is my first DX VF-1! I am very excited! Twich
  18. twich
    Since I never got the renewal VF-25F or VF-25S, this might be a good thing if these get re-released as the VF-25F is with included Super Pack. I am excited that these will potentially be available on such sites as BBTS and Amazon US. Twich

    This is very interesting, I wonder if this is indication that "they" are trying to reinvigorate Macross II in Japan and abroad. I would love to see a DX VF-2SS! Twich

    Short answer, one control by student, one controlled by instructor Twich

    I have to admit that I am surprised and disappointed. A lot of Macross fans are key on details about this sort of thing. Maybe they will give us info in the non canon publication Variable Fighter Master File for the VF-31AX Kairos Plus. Twich

    I was unaware that others contributed to the Macross Compendium. I know that Macross Mecha Manual is behind because of peoples’ day jobs/lives. One can hope that someday they get updated. Twich

    So now that Absolute Live!!!!!! Is out in Japan on video and should be arriving elsewhere in the world, how long can we expect to wait until the official statistics on the VF-31AX Kairos Plus and SV-303 surface? How long until Egan Loo updates the Macross Compendium? I know I should have patience, but we have waited a good part of a year now. Twich

    I would certainly want to, but time and price will tell. I am getting this as a birthday present from the wife, but ordered it myself because she can’t stand Japanese websites. Thanks everyone! Twich

    Thank You! Ordered the GBP version from Mandarake, will be my first DX VF-1! Twich
