Really need one of those custom sticker sets by takatoy especially the stealth set. takatoys do let us know when they are rdy for purchase Cheers

Hi, Would it be possible to just have the 1/48 VF-1S/A/J stickers as i dun own any 1/60 VF-0S? Adding to that would there be any 1/48 Fps sticker be made available as well? Would be interested in the following: 1) 5 x 1/48 VF-1S/A/J 2) 4 x 1/48 Fast Packs 3) 2 x Stealth stickers 4) 3 x 1/48 GPB Do give me a pm if you see this message as i had been trying to contact ya via pm and email. Tks Cheers

OT for awhile: Anyone care to tell me how to contact takatoys as i tried pming, wish to order some stickers from him. Nice job, hayao, the white decals blends in nicely with the LV2 Cheers

Fierce!! Love the custom scheme Cheers

Im all for a Elintseeker and SO, not forgetting VF-1D as well. Maybe for the 30th Anniversary, yamato can surprise us with a 1/48 VF-1S Minmay Guard Paris or Moon act. Cheers

My modest collection to date: DYRL 1) 1/48 VF-1S Roy Focker: 002 2) 1/48 VF-1S Hikaru: 001 TV 1) 1/48 VF-1J Hikaru: 001 Variations 1) 1/48 VF-1J Stealth (Fps ver): 001 2) 1/48 VF-1J Stealth: 001 Accessories 1) 1/48 Fast Packs: 005 2) 1/48 GPB armour : 002

Nopes that's the actual color of the VF0S, a beige skin tone rather than a greyish white seen on that of the VF-1. Cheers

Okie guys, its just a small err on my part..dun need to chew me up and spit me out. Didnt knew the VF0 didnt have retractable hands. ...perhaps i should rewatch the anime again. Being spoilt by the VF-1 line ..so forgive me Btw graham, you gots yours? any problems so far? Cheers

skull emblems are printed on the tail fins..but the toopid thing is that they arent printed in the centre but overlapping the grey and black details on the tail fins..this time round they arent crooked. Wonder why yamato didnt bother to correct this problem even with the 5th reissue of the VF-1S Roy Missiles are grey for normal and fps versions of the stealth. Pilot is the same as low vis...wish yamato would have repainted a DYRL or TV pilot instead. who wants to do a swap with mine? Cheers

Most of the batches came from jp while some are from HK. Seems that there isnt QC problems so far..no wrong shoulders, loose joints. Havent fiddle with the Fps magnets and polycaps yet..Hope those are ok as well Touch wood! The pilot figurine is one of the best painted figures i have seen so far, looks much more better that that of the 1/48. Cheers

Just got mine. The black and grey parts to my surprise aint too contrasting such that it conflicts with each other, blends in with each other really well. The fps colors are really droolsome and beautiful to behold. The packaging consist of two boxes, one is a regular 1/48 VF-1A/S/J type of box and the other is a 1/48 Fps box..both of them are packaged in a super big box. Whats nice is both the boxes are white..sort of reminds of of exclusive ltd tfs that were packaged in. Overall a beautiful piece. Considering doing up a 1S head with blueroses sticker/decals.

Sorry to hear that hayao. My two pieces doesnt have any of the problems mentioned, no 2 right shoulders, joints fairly tight, fps magnets works okie, no broken parts. Guess im lucky. What i like abt are the translucent red clear pieces that represent optic lenses. Downside is hands arent retractable as that of the VF-1. But silohuette and its sleekness makes it a beautiful piece to display in all 3 modes. Hope that yamato does do the ghost unit for it, and maybe a VF-0A or D variant Cheers

No problems graham, take all you want, just give credit to the website that had the pics.

Nps, im sure everyone is as eager as me to see whats the boxart fot the VF0S. Im sure it would be out very soon. Cheers

Well looky what we have here, 1/60 VF0S boxart. Sorry to disappoint you folks who were hoping for a Tenjin or Takani artwork. Looks quite pretty much the same as that of a 1/48 VF-1S except for the thick yellow border on the right side of the box. Looks great, the battroid, fighter and box!

I would say im game for any of the variants, be it VF-0S/A/D cos they they all look gorgeous. Hopefully we can see some SV-51s as well as some destroids and monsters being done as well Cheers

Right ON! Unleash the bug to harass them! Yups i agree the VF-0D release would be nice, not forgetting the 1/60 Ghost Armour or GPB armour Cheers

The wait is agonizing!! Hope to get my hands on these babies soon, hopefully just in time for my bd! Cheers

Great Work kurt! You know what this color scheme nicely compliments the Low Vis 2 that is coming out. Cheers

Tks graham for the scans. The plastic seen here looks whiter than before, shown in the previous scans, which was more of a beige white ...than again it maybe due to the lighting. Graham any info abt the base color used, issit same as that of the VF-1 or beige white in color? Suppose you would be doing a review on it unless kazaki beats you to it again

What i would wish yamato to do: 1) Destroids 2) YF-19/Fps and YF-21/Fps in 1/60 scale 3) VF-17 3) Better ltd and unique paint schemes for VF-1 like that of Minmay Paris Moon Act, Egnima, Blue roses 4) SDF-1 (DYRL or TV) finally, please include the DYRL hands and Side covers for all future releases of valks, saves us the trouble to procure them through external sources. Give us better stickers, best if they are dry transfer or decal Cheers

Im all for the recastting of heads in high impact polymer, its a swell and innovative idea neova, but i think many like me just prefer plain old toys without much or no electronics. Cheers

Great collection g3173!! Have you ever consider getting an glass cabinet cos i see dust start to form on your customs? Simply awesome, wish i had the money to do those customs. Cheers

my guess the holes in the 1/60 VF-0S are for the ghost booster packed with arnaments. Graham, any possibility of yamato doing the SV-51s even though its unlikely due to its design complexity? Cheers

Cool feature, didnt know the cockpit could be tilted backwards/slip into the chest area for battroid mode operation. Thats a nice feature. Can see there is quite a lot of enhancements and details being put into this 1/60 VF-0S. My worries are will there be any faults or problems as this is the first version. Hope yamato produce a defects free version as that of the gpb. Cheers
