ALL HAIL st. EUGIMON!! You're not gonna make us drink the coolaid are ya?

Quoted for truth. Besides, this is a Forum. Anything stated by it's members (except people that are "in the know" like yourself) should be taken with a big grain of salt. 5 grains in BoB's case.

I really have no idea why ya'll want a YF-21 that looks like a jet without jet engines.

*Comes into the room, looks around and starts yelling at everybody to get back to work.* *Waits till everybody is gone, quickly grabs a beer, gobles it down, belches loudly and waits for Graham*

...and we're still waiting for pics.

My hand hurts from scrolling through all those pics. That is one hell of a collection.

After some thought, I decided that I'll wait for the 2nd release. It worked for the YF-19 and I'm very happy that I waited for the 2nd release with that one. Having said that, it'll probably take Yamato about a year to release a 2nd version and if the reviews on the 1st release are positive I might cave in and grab one anyway. I could care less about the FP which look fugly IMO.

The VF-0 series already has that feature and it's not very popular among collectors.

Ah, so I'm not the only one that's still on the fence about getting the Ivanov SV-51. I've still got a pre-order going, but the Nora version is looking sweet too and I'm not sure I can afford both. With Yamato's record for first releases I'm not sure what to do. I'd love to have the Ivanov ASAP and I just put my toys in a display and look at them so it probably won't break, but still... Meh, what the hell, you only live once right?

As much as I love the YF-21 and 19, the VF-11 will be the 'multiple purchase Valk' for me. There was only one YF-19 in the anime and only one YF-21, so that's how much will be on my shelf. The VF-11, however, was canon fodder, so I can buy as many of those as I want. If Yamato make the VF-19A and the VF-22, I'll get those, but there will only be one dark blue with yellow stripes YF-21, and one beige with red and black details YF-19 for me.

That's an amazing piece of artwork! Anyone else notice the U.N.T. SPACY on it's weapon?

I call bullsh!t. Graham allready stated that Yamato will NOT be releasing any 1/48 two-seaters.

According to st.Eugimon's prophecies we'll get a MacZero release after the YF-21 so it'll probably be another year before we see a VF-11.

Thank Gawd! finally someone that feels the same way about FAST packs on Valks other than the VF-1. I started a thread about this subject a couple of months ago, but it left me feeling seriously misunderstood by my fellow MW members. poor little old meee!

Those look great! I can't read the text, any more details available?

Says who?! Did I miss something? The YF-21 uses more anime magic than any other VF. If they can get that right, a VF-11 should be easy. I've always thought of the VF-11 as a mix of YF-19 and YF-21 design elements. Any lessons learned from designing the 19 and 21 will make the VF-11 an easy score for Yamato.

Delayed? Good, it'll give me more time to save up cash.

Meaning you've allready seen a prototype right. Bastid!!!1 You, my friend, deserve a custom title. Where do I sign up for my pre order?

Is the VF-0B even canon? I don't remember seeing it in the anime.

Great idea for a site, but you could do with some design like banners, logo, etc.. If you need any help, let me know.

I can answer that first one: Because it's a cartoon and water seeping out of a bullet hole wouldn't be very spectacular. Can't argue with point b) though.

No more VF-0's for me. Not until Yamato release a VF-0D. If Eugimon really the prophet, we'll see a Mac+ toy after the SV-51 and we'll see a MacZero toy again after that. Let's hope it's a VF-0D. On second thought, I'd prefer a Reactive Armor as that would be a little less expensive. EDIT* spelling

Here's my entry. I'm pretty sure Yamato will do this one someday.

Made some more... Same as above, but using the dark background. Same without the panellines. Using a mirrored effect that seems to be quite popular these days. The old one using the new background color. Same, but with the 'old skool' logo.

I could make a Nexus version of this one and have another go at creating one for MW using this dark blue background. I noticed that the banner is made up of a small gif that is repeated along the widht of the page. I can make a gif that would fit in with the fuselage colors like on the right side of my banner.
