KingNor Posted March 28, 2005 Posted March 28, 2005 Is there any word on how many Low-Viz valks were made? It'd be intresting to know. Quote
VF-18S Hornet Posted March 28, 2005 Posted March 28, 2005 Is there any word on how many Low-Viz valks were made?It'd be intresting to know. they were a limited edition so therefore they are no longer on sale. Try looking for them on Ebay, I hear they are selling for $700 bucks, last I heard Quote

Try looking for them on Ebay, I hear they are selling for $700 bucks, last I heard This wasn't the answer KingNor was looking for Wasn't a "Full Run" somewhere along the lines of 12000-15000 pieces? then a LTD run might be around 40%-50% of that 4500-8000 pieces Quote

glane21 Posted March 28, 2005 Posted March 28, 2005 I don't understand the hoopla over the Low Viz. I had one, and liked it less than the others out at the time. It's just a grey 1A. The 1A Max didn't do anything for me either and now everyone clamors for them. I was glad, however, to sell them both at a profit rather than a loss. Quote
bigkid24 Posted March 28, 2005 Posted March 28, 2005 I thought Graham answered this question before and the answer was that it was less than 5000. Quote

Whenever a 1/48 gets scarcer, the more people want it. Quote
Godzilla Posted March 28, 2005 Posted March 28, 2005 Graham answered the question. Only Graham knows the real numbers produced. Quote
Sephiroth Posted March 29, 2005 Posted March 29, 2005 2,500. Damn, that's a smaller production number than I thought. Yamato wasn't kidding when they labeled it "Limited Version". Oh well, I'm happy with the one Low-Viz that I own. Quote
jenius Posted March 29, 2005 Posted March 29, 2005 LOL, does that mean Godzilla owns like 10% of them? Quote
Hurricane29 Posted March 29, 2005 Posted March 29, 2005 Wow thats a real small amount and means i own .04% of all the LVs. Quote
Amped Posted March 29, 2005 Posted March 29, 2005 Wowzers, that's a helluva lot lower number for the production of Low Viz valks than I figured!!! Still, I too was plenty happy to unload mine for a fair profit. Mechnaically, the 1/48 is a great looking piece... but the Low Viz scheme was just underwhelming to me.... it basically looked like primer grey. I also didn't much care for the rather splotchy attempt at weathering. Woo-hoo. IMO, it takes a lot of finess to pull off a Low Viz paint scheme... probably best left for modelers. Quote
1 VF-1 2NV Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 2,500. Makes you wonder how many they released for each 1/48? Quote
1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 (edited) It would have been cooler if this toy made an appearance in macross zero. I think people were hoping to see roy fokker beating the anti-un in this lol It's just a grey 1A. With black splotches and a mystery pilot! I just imagine it's the ghost of shin from when he died in macross zero. Edited March 30, 2005 by 1/1 LowViz Lurker Quote

1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 (edited) Do we know either way? Ok so he floats into space with a damaged valk and limited oxygen and magically folds to another location then? (even though his machine has no fold booster) I thought the ending was too weird to make sense of which is why people hated the ending so much..Maybe if there is a movie version made some day (maybe they could include an easter egg appearance of the low visibility vf1a in the background) it can explain the ending better?

bigkid24 Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 I think there were plans for someone to recast the pilot but after the prices went through the roof on them, I think people backed out of offering their pilot for recasting purposes. Quote
Godzilla Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 LOL, does that mean Godzilla owns like 10% of them? Um no. Mathematically, I own 0.4% or 0.004 where 10/2500. Now those who own 1 have 0.04% or 0.0004. Quote
