Meh. I’m gambling that the 1/72 decals won’t look that out of place on 1/60. I mean, it’s kind of subjective what size everything needs to be anyways, right? Not a big deal. I’m not looking for everything to look exactly the same as the Bandai tampo’d product. Just needs to look good. But I agree that the angles and sizes of things won’t necessarily line up. But I also think that sometimes (often) Bandai overdoes it a little with tampo. So maybe I’ll just leave some stuff off. I might even use some Yamato decals. In my case I’m not trying to reproduce a Delta squadron Valk. So maybe I’m talking out of line.

Yup. Good idea. I bought a Messer 31 specifically to repaint the whole thing an RL low visibility scheme. Gonna be using those decals. If I can’t buy it, I’m gonna make it, darn it! I just can’t get into the in ‘in your face’ color scheme of the delta valks. I like the planes but not the colors and stripes and images. It’s like one of those big RVs you seedriving down the road with huge squiggly lightning striping. Just…why...? Lol. To each their own, of course. Just not for me.

Yeah. I wish for 31A super parts but not likely to happen at this point. At least with the 31S you can just paint some other 31 super parts. But they don’t even fit the 31A correctly.
-
Yeah. This. And I’m sorry because this belongs in ‘what’s next for Arcadia’ but at this point I’d love for Arcadia to just take Yamato’s old mold and do some tweaks to it’s engineering like they’re so good at. There’s no way to make fighter mode look so sleek and awesome like Yamato did with big thick legs. But it’s not like the engines are in the legs anyways. The legs of the 21 & 22 are just there for more standing and walking support and not actual vectoring devices like all the other VFs. That’s what makes the YF-21 and VF-22 stand out. Let it be what it is and like it or don’t.

Thanks for the info no3Ljm and twich!

Sorry to ask this here but wasn’t really sure where was the best place. Does the Yamato separate fold booster set for the YF-19 and YF-21 work with the Yamato VF-22? I know anymoon.com says the booster works with the VF-22 but does the YF-21 fast pack work with the VF-22? Thanks!

The line art is sort of an optical illusion. The booster is up off of the plane by a fair amount. The white pieces circled in green are support struts for the booster. The red line I drew goes straight up from the center of the plane to the underneath center line of the booster.
-
By the looks of the front landing gear, I’m guessing they’re still in the design phase? Or maybe that’s a new set up style they’re working on. But it looks different from anything else they’ve produced. Then again, I’m not really that familiar with the VF-5000. I’m really excited about it though. It’s a beautiful bird.

Meeeeee toooooo… i couldn’t wait any more and picked an old Yamato one.

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!

Just gotta say I love this thread so much. I love coming in here and reading all this awesome information and learning about the real and theoretical science that’s behind Macross and RL technology, civilian and military. So, thank you everyone. I don’t think I could ever contribute but I love soaking it up! 💡 -
I’m so excited for this! I’d definitely prefer a more standard RL low visibility paint scheme as opposed to a ‘hero’ paint scheme but I’ll take whatever. 😃😃😃 Maybe they’ll make the most of the mold and do both!
-
Ohhhhhhh. My bad. Sorry. I get what you’re saying now. Yeah the PO for the VF-0D did last for weeks. 🤐
-
Hahaha. Exactly. I did PO and receive one back then (thankfully) but my point being that Arcadia products (1/60 valks included) are ‘available effectively forever’ but not at MSRP. I can imagine the VF-5000 being something you’ll have to pay premium for if you don’t PO it but I guess only time will tell. 😀
-
Where can you get a premium finish VF-0D for regular price?

And on his farm he had some Vajra… -
Sweet! Thanks Sanity. Well it certainly ‘looks’ like matte finish in the photos…. Wish I knew for sure.
-
Totally missed the PO on this awesome looking anniversary VF-25 but will try to get one on eBay or something if: Sorry if this is a repeat question but anybody know if this release will have a matte finish? Not really interested if it’s glossy like the older renewal 25’s.
-
Yeah. I want Bandai to make a 21. I want them to make a 21 with the same dedication they made the original 31 series and the revival 25s. Nobody wants a crappy 21 from Bandai or anybody else.
-
Yeah. That’s good advice. Thank you.

Hi all, I’m wanting to order a new Ivanov sv-51 from hlj. Do you think my chances are good of receiving one that is free from manufacturing flaws, specifically the leg issue? There are some for a decent price on eBay but I’m worried that with those it’s just a gamble and I’d rather not have to hassle with the fix.
-
I hope these issues will be addressed before they release the rest of the squadron.

Thanks for the link!

Max’s 29? What’s the story on that?
