Vi-RS

From Yamato website it says September, could be end of the month or early October. http://www.yamato-toys.com/items/cate_list.php?cid=115

I'm sorry it kinda off topic but I was thinking about that when I saw OP was talking about stands. The battroid clips seems fine, but the fighter clip is PITA to remove and I only used it once and I swear I won't do that anymore. Imagine the clip is simply stuck in there, the head is blocking your way and the legs are securely attached which make you almost impossible to remove the clip. Most of the Yamato stands were out of stock for a while and I find it useless to have these clips and will rather have much useful things like I mentioned earlier. If I do have to place the valkyrie on a stand, flexistand will be my choice.

any news on more color variants like sonic bird? low viz? angel birds? and possibly minmay guard and 25000th? lol...

This is speechless and insane with the amount of time and hardworks: http://www.hkml.net/Discuz/viewthread.php?...%3D4&page=1

That pretty much sums up the whole point of it. Why include the clips in each valkyrie release when you don't have a stand that comes with the toy like yf-21? Clips should come in the stands and give us some side covers, extra fists, etc instead.

yeah, make all these customs limited to MW members to make those inland Japanese collectors cry.

Thanks for the links, there tons of other Hasegawa kits to view from, I'm enjoying reading and looking at all pictures posted in that forum.

so nobody in this board actually got these accessaries?

There is a Hong Kong website that still sell these custom decals, but all in 1/72 scale. I did email them to ask about the possibility for 1/60 V2 but they didn't get back to me yet. http://www.samueldecal.com

Having said that, I wonder why Yamato still keep including the stand clips or whatever you call them along with each release? The official Yamato stand is out of stock or backordered, then what for they include these clips since it is not universal and work with other stands as well? They might have just included some better accessary with those amount of plastic like maintenance crews, ladder, pilot seats for battroid mode as seen in wonderfest limited release, rescue pods, side covers, or even another pair of fists for dyrl release? wtf yamato?

Did anyone out there ever made this scheme in V2 1/60? Any custom decals available out there?

ok, I'm digging this out. Anyone is producing these decals V2 1/60?

hey logo, do we have to clip the tail fins in place in fighter mode with fastpack? I didn't do so because it's already secured with the backpack mounting kits. To be honest with you, I have not read the instruction booklet yet. On the pilot sticker, maybe you should trim it smaller to eliminate the clear part.

I feel the same, logos. I had some hardtime to put the vt-1 head in place, it's real tricky because the head has couple joints over the neck so it's quite hard to press the head in the socket because both the base and neck piece have joints and keep moving around. lol Yes it does has the collar, I think the collar is intergrated with the head piece instead of having it on the fuselage.

I hope you will get over with the shoulderphobia soon, it's such a shame that you bought cases of them and you didn't enjoy them. I find it more tricky to remove the thigh (intake area) sometime for some V2 I have.

I do agreed that v2 vt-1 is the best representation of toy ever made out there. By the way, have you ever transformed your V2 to battroid mode so far coz I remember you said that you didn't so far, Agent?

My first impression is the fastpack seems a bit small, but when you put them side by side with super fast pack then it's in scale at the back portion. Yamato is using the same booster nozzle from the super pack, and in the line art it seems much bigger. Anyway, I like the scale of fast pack on vt-1. The mounting kit for the fastpack are fine with me, it secures on the toy very nicely and firmly without having to have the backpack or tail fins sit on the back. I love it.

Nobody has ever received it, not released yet so nobody knows.

agreed

I just got the vt-1 in the mail today, and overall I must say I'm very pleased with it. The only gripe I will make are the visible sprue marks on the top of fastpacks, other than that it's a beautiful piece in correct color and anime correct. The mounting kit is amazing without having the tail fins touching the body.

ok, yamato really come to the details to make a new mold to change the groove line on the arm to be anime accurate. I understand that it's what it supposes to have, but they are still missing the 2 dots though if they decide to paint them black to bring the line out... Anyway, it's still the best vf-1 toy ever made.

try overdrive, it's the other way around.

Good lord.... Minmay is missing her feet though.... and I don't know why they added the vertical line on heatshield though, it'd have looked better without it: By the way, what make the lower arm different than the standard vf-1? Is it because the elbow area extends to cover up until the upper arm?

It'd be cheaper to get the fastpack and valkyrie separatel.
