Thank you both!!! Best replies I've seen these couple last days

I wouldn't trust the advertisement. If you examine Yamato boxes, all of them have pics of the painted prototypes not the final/actual product. Think of the SV-51 CF, the feet/claws are tan in the pics of the box but the actual toy has dark grey ones. Gamlin's VF-22 has light grey intake covers in the pics but the toy has intake covers that match the body color of the plane. If you look very closely you can see the YF-21 was used and repainted cause the blues shows on the elbow scratches The v2 1/60 VF-1S Roy Strike has smaller skull stickers on the strike pack and thicker panel lines. Every single Yamato box is full of inaccuracies!!! Even the blue slid of the weathered 1/48 Roy has a white blue print of a v1 1/60 VF. The same happens with the advertisements, they never use a production samle for the pics You sir, have hit the nail on it

Fantastic VF-25S, thanks for the link!!!

Thank Harmony Gold for that I hope you get a replacement for the wing!! Maybe one of the members that speak Japanese will chime in and guide you or provide you with a mail to contact Yamato.

Calm down boys!!! Don't set the torches The posted picture shows another unassembled model kit in runners in a tranlucent box. Where was it confirmed that it's going to be a painted and assembled mass produced Kit? It does come with a pilot which my 1st exclusive fan racer didn't, but it's not that a big deal. If in the near future Yamato produces a 1/60 toy out of it (they should do a fan liner too) it's like the 1/60 v2 VF-1 update.

I'd like a friend for my 1/100 König Monster The 1/60 v2 is the ultimate valk, it can't get better than this, at least in my book. But if the $$ bandai want's for this 1/100 is reasonable, I'll get one.

Yes!!! A 1/60 Zentran soldier, but it's from the company that makes the prototypes for Yamato. The same company that sold the wonderfest exclusive bags for the mospeada and the 1/60 seats for battroid mode. I hope yamato sees the potential of 1/60 zentran figures!!!!

I like it too, will get it

All that hard work has really paid off! Your VT-1 is looking very good.

This is going to be so great for customizations!!! Thanks for the pic.

Wow!!! Amazing artwork, thanks for sharing it with us. Kep up the good work

Awesome custom!!!! Nice find, thanks for sharing

It's a customized YF-21, take a look at the cockpit

Thanks for the link!!

I'll stay tuned for the pics. Good you found the missing piece!!!

Everybody should have this show on their top 5 anime list Some character designs are based on Lupin III, Spike -> Lupin and Jet -> Jigen. The final scene with the shot couple in the first episode, was taken from "Bonnie & Clyde". The shooting at the bar was taken from "Desperado" with Antonio Banderas. Spike was also based on Bruce Lee, so there are a lot of references to his films. "Way of the Dragon" when Spike uses the nunchakus in the second episode. The homage to Miyazaki and his "Porco Rosso" in episode 19 (Wild Horses) was very fun Those are some of the hundreds of examples!! There are a lot of references to films, other anime, music bands in this series, definitely one of the best anime series ever!!!

Maybe it's mistransformed. Looking at the gerwalk pics, everything seems fine!!! The 1/72 VF-27 is looking very good, thanks for the new pics.

It's really awesome!! It turned out great, good choice of colors.

Thank you for the links!!!!

Well said!!! But I still have to learn the basics and all the different settings when shooting manual with a DSLR camera. I'm carefully reading all your tips on the Photoshop thread to experiment how my camera reacts. I haven't bought the best camera (Canon EOS Rebel XS), but I think it's enough as an entry level camera. I hate grainy pics when I shoot under poor light conditions with high ISO I´ve seen better pics with the same camera as mine. I have to learn other settings.

I'm still on the fence about getting this VF-1D I love my orange VF-1D trainer, but this scheme is exactly the same as Max's VF-1J. I'm still not convinced.

Great pics everybody!!! I should get my lazy a$$ up and shoot some pics. I still have to learn how to take decent photos with my DSLR camera

Those are the 1/72 model kits not the DX So it's really small. But it seems packed with detail for such a small figure. Is the Q-Rea correctly scaled against the VF-25?

Thanks for the pics!!! The VF-25 and Q-Rea look great. First impression? Are the joints tight?

I got it from Evil Bay from a seller with 100% positive rating with more than 3000 transactions. Will post pics when I receive it
