mechaninac Posted April 10, 2006 Posted April 10, 2006 (edited) Sweet, it looks like Hikaru is no longer the Stealth's pilot either. 389618[/snapback] It looks like the same gummy pilot that came with the original LV. That, if nothing else, is very welcome news. Edit: Oooo! one post away from the triple 6 post... Edited April 10, 2006 by mechaninac Quote
GobotFool Posted April 10, 2006 Posted April 10, 2006 Thanks for the pics. I keep checking this thread every once in a while for new pics. Some of them I save to my HD and drool at later.I'm kinda sick and obsessed about it.. I'm unimpressed. Don't get me wrong, I think it's a great toy, but for the life of me I can't imagine spending 160 dollars on a 1/60. Maybe if it goes the way of the VE-1 and drops in price I might buy it. If I was going to spend that much I'd much rather buy the YF-19 or a 1/48 than that. 160 on a 160.. hehe. But this toy in some ways is better than a 1/48 vf1. Did you hear about how the improved the landing gear, gave us a rotable seat, and other things? It's roughly the same size as a 1/48 AND has about 1/48 quality. 389537[/snapback] what's this about improved landing gear? Quote
jenius Posted April 10, 2006 Posted April 10, 2006 what's this about improved landing gear? It utilizes over-technology to automatically lower the landing gears when the toy is within a couple inches of any surface. The gun has also been improved to actually fire like the ol' Takatoku guns. I was pretty surprised that they actually decided to include depleted uranium rounds... I think that's just taking detail a little too far. Hey, Yamato wasn't f**kin' around this time! PS - for the gullible, nothing I have said is true. Hopefully no one needs this disclaimer. Quote

Really though, how has the landing gear been improved on this toy? Quote

Fortress_Maximus Posted April 10, 2006 Posted April 10, 2006 I am kind of surprised some of you preordered so many knowing Yamato might have qc concerns w/the first release. Hm. Quote
Fortress_Maximus Posted April 10, 2006 Posted April 10, 2006 389746[/snapback] That stand looks interesting, where is it from? Thanks. Quote
agr33 Posted April 10, 2006 Posted April 10, 2006 I guess i am i pre-ordered the same amount of stealth and low-vis valks Quote
jenius Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 FM, that's the new all black Yamato stand. There's also the chromed stand coming out too. I wonder if the stands are being released with the 0S or with the 1/48s... Quote
UN Spacy Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 I hope Yamato includes a brand new 1/48 mount that CAN support the gunpod. If so then I'm getting rid of my flexistands. Quote
striderhiryu Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 damn i can't belive how slow this month has been so far. Ireally want my VF-0S, yet if this was a slow waiting period i domn't want to think how it is going to be once i send my payment. I´m thinking of something like this: me: is it here yet? mail man: no next day. me:is it here yet mail man: no and so it goes until it drops in my house, i come out saying is it here yet, while the mailman say the same until he yells: here's your stupid package. i receive it and poliitely say: thank you sir. anyway i think this are gonna be the best 160 bucks i spend in this year so far, that unless they decide to release an Sv-51...

Graham Posted April 11, 2006 Author Posted April 11, 2006 what's this about improved landing gear? 389688[/snapback] The landing gear has improved locking over the 1/48 and also, the rear landing gear angles out when opened. Graham Quote

Dante74 Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 I hope Yamato includes a brand new 1/48 mount that CAN support the gunpod.If so then I'm getting rid of my flexistands. 389803[/snapback] They will include a mount that can support the gunpod. Graham posted that fact a couple of days ago. I'd be interrested in one of those flexistands of yours. How much will they be going for? Quote

Chewie Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 (edited) Does anyone think the 0S is going to be in really REALLY high demand or can broke guys like me wait a few months and actually hope to get one?

Well enough that Yamato will produce a second and third wave. Plus they might introduce the VF-0A and VF-0D if demand if high and sales are what they expected. Quote

Dante74 Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 Oops... I'm sorry, I thought you meant the mount for the vf-0, because THAT will be included with the toy. Sorry... Quote

I'm half tempted to sell my 1S Roy 1/48 to help pay for a 0S. Quote
1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted April 12, 2006 Posted April 12, 2006 Does anyone think the 0S is going to be in really REALLY high demand or can broke guys like me wait a few months and actually hope to get one? In my case I have been saving up all this time, and tempted everyday to spend my money on other things so the release needs to come quickly. lol The improved landing gear, rotating seat, headlaser that can be posed outwards, the leg armor (they are not really armor though are they?) improved knees for gerwalk, the detail etc make up for the fact it is still 1/60 scale imo Since the vf1 has so many variants, that is more milkable than a vf0. So I will probably eat up the cost in the hope we see more. (I predict vf0a next or maybe ghost booster parts or reactive armor. Why wouldn't they?) Hopefully they will attempt the two seater in future though. (will be interesting to see two rotating seats) Quote
