It's as everyone has already said, they decided to favor battroid mode in this version. But I still think that whatever compromises were made on fighter mode are minimal and that fighter mode still looks damn good. -Kyp

I bet you guys anything it will be at least mid May before they're released. I've already resigned myself to the fact that I'm not going to have this thing in my hands before June. -Kyp

I'm praying for end of April, but I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if it was mid May... -Kyp

I'm pretty sure it's a given that whatever was produced during the first 1/60 line will be made this time around along with the addition of two seaters. -Kyp

Everything in this world is a give and take and you can't please everyone. But I'm glad they did it the way they did because if they hadn't, it would have made fighter mode look like a pregnant Yak. Like the way the 1/72 looks... -Kyp

I honestly don't see anything wrong with the new 1/60's fighter mode. Yeah, the nose looks a little bit (And I mean just a little) shorter than the 1/48, but I think it looks really good in all modes. And it damn sure looks much better than the old 1/60's by far, IMHO. The only thing about these that I don't like is possibly having to pay more than $125 before shipping. VALKYRIE_EXCHANGE told me he is gonna be doing a group buy on these and to stay tuned. I'm sure I'll be quite happy with the price he quotes. -Kyp

Yes. -Kyp

http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?show...st&p=554890 I still think it looks great, just as long as the price isn't more than $125 before shipping. -Kyp

Thus far, I haven't heard of any of the 1/48's going yellow yet, could that be due to better treatment of the plastic? -Kyp

Indeed, that's the version I just got finished watching and it's good enough for me. -Kyp

I just hope that V_E is going to have a group buy of these so they'll be in my price range. Overall, I like the looks of the 1/60 more than the 1/48. -Kyp

I just love it when people are called hobos because they refuse to pay more for something than they believe it to be worth... I'm not gonna pay $150 (Not including shipping)for the 1/60 VF-1 either. I'll go $125...MAX. Otherwise, Yamato can not only kiss my ass, but I'll just buy the 1/48's and screw staying with consistent scale size. And this is coming from a "scale whore". One of several good things I can say about the 1/48's...they're no-brainers when it comes to QC and overall good design and durability. -Kyp

QFT. If I wanted a fuggin' Transformer, I would have already bought Yamato's 1/72 M+ line a long, long time ago. -Kyp

I'm gonna wait to see if VALKYRIE_EXCHANGE decides to offer a group buy on this. -Kyp

http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?show...st&p=574174 Apparently, VALKYRIE _EXCHANGE's suppliers don't know what the f*ck they're talking about then. -Kyp

Well, if it's the 30th for it to get here in the states, that would be closer to what I was expecting. But if it isn't supposed to be out at all till then, then I'm gonna be pissed. -Kyp

This product will be in stock on Wednesday 30 April, 2008. That was from the Lost and Found Toys website....what the f*ck? That pisses me off, I thought this thing was supposed to come out April 9th? Lame... -Kyp

It's the 9th, and hopefully our friends out there overseas will be picking these up and telling us about them and with pictures too, I hope! -Kyp

#134950 His movies makes baby Jesus cry. -Kyp

I'm only getting the YF-21 because there isn't a 1/60 VF-22 available and this is as close to one as I can get. -Kyp

Gee, I wonder what this report post button does... *Clicks button* -Kyp

The next thing that's coming out would be the new 1/60 VF-1S Roy, after that, I'm not sure. -Kyp

Two more days. -Kyp

How about we post those pics of the YF-21 that were posted in the wrong thread here? And while we're at it : -Kyp

Way to go, Sam! That is an AWESOME mod there!! -Kyp
