Apparently the reissue YF-19 will include a new set of decals...

Looks like this one will have more replaceable parts than the 19: - heatshield - intake covers - landing gear (these don't count since the 19 doesn't have any ) - hands Still, it looks nice and I can't wait to put it next to the Toynami Battlepod

Received the hinges yesterday, thanks Graham!

Wow, very nice!!

It doesn't, but according to this post by Ngee Khiong, one is in development: Tamashii Web mentioned that with the landing gear, plus the stability of the Gerwalk mode, a display base is not exactly needed. But a display base with adjustable angle is currently under development anyway. To be sold separately. ("現在、角度調整できる別売り台座を開発中です"). Funny thing is they are acknowledging that the stand of the VF-25 is NECESSARY; I, for one, really hate that about the VF-25. I hope they use all the improvements of the 27 in a new version of the 25

NICE!!!! I wonder if they were able to fix the pilot's colors on time... looks too white to me

A couple of new pics (from Happinet Online): edit: found higher resolution pics

Ok, thx! In the meantime I'm still looking for a hosting site that can take big-sized files

Thanks for the links! Regarding the VF-25, looks like they used the 1st version in this photoshoot. Since apparently we're not getting any improvements, at least I hope it's a white VF-25F with the darker / metallic gray details of the reissue (see pic). edit: uploaded wrong pic, doh!

I've been checking where to upload the files... everything seems to be torrents now. Regarding the horizontal lines, I haven't seen any. I watched eps. 45 - 48 over the weekend and I didn't notice anything like that. I'll check again today in the earlier episodes. Did you idetnify any episode in particular where this happens?

In one of the threads (unfortunately can't remember which one) there are pics of a VF-25 CF, custom-made by a member from a VF-25G. It was later sold on eBay if I remember correctly...

I was finally able to take out my VF-19. I like it very much; compared to the VF-25 from the VF100's line, this is WAY better. Although there are removable parts, the main body is fully transformable... i insist, it would’ve been nice if the VF100 line was like this. Unfortunately... I had the "prong issue". The right shoulder popped out during transformation from fighter to battroid. One of the prongs showed signs of wear on the parts that hold to the slot (in the FIRST transformation). The worst thing is that I saw stress marks on the RED part of the shoulder. I panicked and reattached the arm right away, but I should've taken a pic to show what it looks like. I think this will be a big issue with the upcoming speaker shoulders. I see no other way to replace the shoulders than to pop off the arm. Prong issue aside, I think this line is going in the right direction. Bandai should've named it VF100's PLUS or something like that because, as many have mentioned, "Hi-Metal" really doesn't make sense since the metal content is minimum.

Yes please!! Especially the ones that haven't been uploaded by VIP: ep. 49, encore, movie and dynamite

A;parently they mention here: http://tamashii.jp/t_item/t_item.php?eid=00021 something about the Blazer Valk and something about Macross Plus too So far, this line appears to be what many of us expected from the VF100's

According to Yamato: 2010年1月 出荷予定 Just "January"... should be @ the 25th or so

Evolution?:

Those are not new, but these are: http://ga.sbcr.jp/mnews/014339/ I'm really looking forward to this VF but, unfortunately, there appears to be a color difference between the plastic and metal parts

Wow, nice job! It does look WAY better in Gerwalk

Thanks for the news! If I read your signature correctly... we'll be finally getting the 17!!!!!

Updated pic of the 4 I have replaced: two VF-1J (not counting the one with the GBP... that one hast stress marks only), a VF-1A and a VF-1S:

Sorry for the crappy cellphone pic... here are two of the 4 I have replaced: The right arm of a VF-1J and the left arm of a VF-1S.

The movie was released in November 21st. No cam versions have appeared online so I guess we'll have to wait until the DVD / BR is released (should be around June or so). Same thing happened with Evangelion 1.0, no cam recordings were available online until it was shown outside of Japan several months later... by then, the DVD had already been announced.

Thank you very much for the tips... i decided to retry many stages of the missions but that meant losing all the points I had accumulated (hence the D ranking). I'm trying now to finish everything in one swoop (ha!). Totally agree with you, after a Large Vajra kept defeating my Macross Quarter over and over again, the risk of throwing my PSP started to be very high It's nice that these missions make you think of how to defeat the enemy, but the missions are so damn long! Anyway I shouldn't complain, this game is lots of fun

My gf helped me translate the text in that page. According to her, the translation states that the Tornado pack VF-25 will be based on the release from November (read: bluish) with some color variations... I guess this is referring to the red color. The Tornado's red stripes appear to be the same color as the first release and not the darker tone that the bluish VF-25 has.
