I myself am VERY happy about a green Lucifer re-release in the Version 1.5 tooling. For me, this is the best news of the event. Hope it comes with super parts.
Hopefully it's a web exclusive. Anyone else kinda mystified that Bandai didn't take the opportunity to display a Chronos re-paint?
It's also a prototype which hasn't been assembled with much care.
Love the pics, and fighter mode looks quite nice. Bandai itself has too much coming out competing for my money, but this may well make it on my list if the final product lives up to the prototype's promise.
I also suspect it suited the Air Force's purposes, since if they were ever asked if the "F-19 Stealth fighter" actually existed, they could say with a straight face "F-19? There's no such thing."
If you're talking about the plastic the Valkyrie came in, I don't think it's a bag at all, but a piece of plastic sheet you wrap the fighter in. And you want to to do that, as it seems styrofoam can rub tampo printed markings off.
"It WILL be mine!!"

Dunno if that was a statue, I think it was a "gate-guard" de-militarized VF-1. If so, that could be Bandai's back door, if they so chose.
Need to see pics of fighter mode. It's becoming a physical ache.
I have problems.
