Neova Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 (edited) Box Pictures and Pilot Figure. Comes with TV Pilot and TV Hands. However, arms are DYRL (?) with vertical parallel panel lines vs the VF-1J and old line art perpendicular lines. Color is a bit on the light side and close to the 1/60 TRU version from memory. No comments on fit and finish yet until I get the chance to play with this. PS: Box does NOT SAY LIMITED EDITION so I don't know if this is true or not. Edited September 14, 2005 by Neova Quote
BlueMax Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 Cool!!! Can we have more pics please??? Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 Thanks for the pics!!! Looking great, can't wait to have mine Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 a clearer pic of the pilot 328230[/snapback] I noticed the control panel is crooked! It was glued wrong. One of my VF-1S Focker had the same problem and the canopy couldn't close properly. It's an easy fix though, had to take the panel out and glue it back I wonder if it's a common problem or just with that one. No matter what I'm gonna buy two CF Quote
eming Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 Wow! Strange that you guys got the CF first, while we received the re-issue VF-1S first in Singapore... Quote
JKeats Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 Good gravy, I know it's been said before but that box has got to be the worst one that Yamato's put out. Ugh. Quote
rnurmin Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 Thanks for the pics. For some reason, the pilot's uniform reminds me of Kakizaki Quote
Black Valkyrie Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 For some reason, the pilot's uniform reminds me of Kakizaki 328266[/snapback] It is Kakizaki ... Yellow cuz the CF pilots uniform are green color. Quote
promethuem5 Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 Awesome. I can't wait to get mine... I've got an Anasazi set of decals comming and am doing my first weathering job on it.... Quote
Draykov Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 (edited) Weird. I was expecting the green/blue generic pilot. I don't know whether to be slightly disappointed or pleasantly surprised. Edited September 14, 2005 by Draykov Quote
EXO Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 awesome... can't wait! damn Neova, where've you been? Quote
Eazy D Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 Can anyone post up a few pics of the CF in battroid mode. I'm a bit disappointed about the colour. I was hoping it'd be a slightly darker shade of brown. Also, Is UN SPACY preprinted on the legs or does it have to applied as a decal? BTW - thanks for getting those pics out Neova and Blackaces A review of the toy from one of you guys would be great. Dave Quote
Eternal_D Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 falls off the truck...or assembly line...I'm sure the toys are made really close to HK...or at least closer to HK than shipping them to Japan. looks good, can't wait to get mine. Quote
Hayao Kakizaki Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 HERE IS my 2nd CF-1A, the 1st is my own custom, be honest, i think my custom's color is much better the this production version Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Noiice! But geez thats sum fugly boxart! This will look awesome with a Super. Pics!!? Quote
Gabe Q Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 and my pilot is in GREEN~! 328466[/snapback] Kakizaki, your CF valk is way better. It has the right color and the right pilot. Now you just need to sculpt a TV head. Quote
Graham Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Not really keen on the pilot color . Mind you I've never really been a fan of the VF-1A Cannon Fodder anyway. Still going to pick up one, but only one. And that fugly box is going straight in the trash Graham Quote
Hayao Kakizaki Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Kakizaki, your CF valk is way better. It has the right color and the right pilot. Now you just need to sculpt a TV head. 328474[/snapback] thx, and I also want to have a TV version head, maybe found sometime to made one...., but I just worry about the shape , if just simply cut out the black part , I think is just too short Quote
Uxi Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Wow, looks very nice. I'd prefer the green pilot and darker color myself. Quote
vlenhoff Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Man, a blind man could design a better box WTH is their problem? Is that really Kakizaki? I still like the CF itself, and I think it is going to look great with th FP! C'mon that box is just awful... I can take better pictures than that... V!C Quote
1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Looks ok to me. Not as good as that battle-damaged custom with holes and stuff, but it'll suffice. I think yamato should do up a battle-damage CF and make that the real limited edition. So this must be the last of the VF1A type releases correct? Quote
TheLoneWolf Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Man, a bli nd man could design a better box  WTH is their problem? Is that really Kakizaki? 328499[/snapback] If that were Kakizaki, he'd be a whole lot wider Quote
hevangel2 Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 I just ordered mine form toy-wave. I hope that would be the last 1/48 single seat. I am a bit sick (and broke) for yet another repaint. Quote
Chet Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 (edited) Looks ok to me. Not as good as that battle-damaged custom with holes and stuff, but it'll suffice. I think yamato should do up a battle-damage CF and make that the real limited edition. So this must be the last of the VF1A type releases correct? 328527[/snapback] Well, they could still issue Max's custom VF-1A from the TV series or Kakizaki's custom VF-1A from DYRL.

aaajin Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 no more please...were full...waiter, may I have the bill now.. Quote
vanpang Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Darn, why is one pilot in yellow uniform and the other in green ? Please do not tell me Yamato has started producing variant versions like those gashaphons !!! Quote
Mechamaniac Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Darn, why is one pilot in yellow uniform and the other in green ? Please do not tell me Yamato has started producing variant versions like those gashaphons !!! 328588[/snapback] I think Hayao Kakizaki was referring to HIS pilot from his custom Brownie. The pilots coming from Yamato are Yellow. Quote
Deimos Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 canoon fodder is here !!! tomolo getting my no 000 and 002 CF !!! 1830PM local time (singapore) Quote
phatslappy Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Why would it be a limited edition? It's the cannon fodder! they're everywhere; they're the ones that get killed off first...so shouldn't they have the most of this one? hahahah j/k. I'm such an idiot. Quote
Rabidweezil Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Unfortunately I accidentally deleted my email from HLJ when I ordered this a while ago, but wasn't there an early bird discount on this? When I check my order status, it shows the same price as it is now. Quote
vlenhoff Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Here is a beter pic... than the one in the box art.... V!C Quote
Godzilla Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Here is a beter pic... than the one in the box art....V!C 328701[/snapback] Wow. I like the fighter but I rather have the TV green pilots. But oh well. Time to make my Kakizaki custom. Quote
