RYO Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 (edited) LOLz! You beat me to the thread... ^^;;; Here's the Hobby Stock link ... edit: Based on Hobby Stock, release date is on September 2006... Edited July 21, 2006 by RYO Quote
Fly4victory Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Great Info. What is the expected release date? Thanks! Quote
Dante74 Posted July 21, 2006 Author Posted July 21, 2006 Sorry for beating you to the thread RYO. Can anybody read the info in the picture. Maybe just a releasedate? Quote
RYO Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 (edited) It has the same release date as the 1/60 VF-0A (Sept, 2006)...Ugh, gonna need very deep pockets for these!!! Edited July 21, 2006 by RYO Quote
Agent-GHQ Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Yamato continues to surprise us! Make the VT-1 and VE-1 already. N-e ways, this one is lookin good!! Quote
Die, Alien Scum! Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 It looks like the pilot is even painted the right colors this time. I'm still kinda bummed that Yamato used Kakizaki's flight suit for the CF pilots, except that it saved me from having to repaint one for my TV Kakizaki custom. Anyway, when I saw RYO's pic in the other thread, I wasn't sure if it was a custom job or an actual upcoming release. Nice to see it's going into production, especially since we've been asking for it for so long. Perhaps Graham had a hand in bringing this one around? Quote
Chowser Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Thanks Yamato! More stuff I don't have money for!?!?!?!?@#@)U@(*&*~@(@*!( Now I have to plan for the VF0A and the Angel Bird.... Guess I can reuse the 3 yr. old crib instead of buying a new one. if we were only having a girl instead of a boy, i wouldn't have to buy new clothes... hmmm...... baby boy in girl clothes all rit dyed blue or new valks...... decisions decisions..... Quote
eugimon Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 fraking.. no good.. razzum frazzum... and the VF-0a is coming out at the same time? aaaaaargh! Quote
Veritas Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Damn Half of me is Happy as hell to see that Yamato is continuing to release new Valk schemes! The other half is contemplating how to kill his twin so that it can save money for more important things. Who will win? I'm siding with the former. Quote
nightmareB4macross Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Holy Crap!!! That is beyond awesome. I have to get at least 5 of these!! Quote
Agent-GHQ Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 (edited) I wonder if the blue part from the legs are originally white and then painted blue. Much like the Super Max and Millia. They were solid red and blue but the the whites are painted which makes it looks a bit tacky. Edited July 21, 2006 by Agent-GHQ Quote
Dante74 Posted July 21, 2006 Author Posted July 21, 2006 In a way I'm glad the 1/60 19 won't be released for a long time so I'll be able to pay for this beauty and the vf-0A. In a way... Quote
Nani?! Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 wow... yamato is on a roll here. The paint scheme looks great... I never thought I'd get another vf-1, but I gotta get this one. one thing though, the gunpod is the same grey... I wish it were plain white or blue~ Quote
Dante74 Posted July 21, 2006 Author Posted July 21, 2006 (edited) IMO an airobatics plane doesn't need a gunpod. When I get it, it'll never be transformed out of fighter mode. Edited July 21, 2006 by Dante74 Quote
muswp1 Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 IMO an airobatics plane doesn't need a gunpod.When I get it, it'll never be transformed out of fighter mode. 418108[/snapback] I wonder if it's going to have the full compliment of underwing weapons. With all the specialty valks coming out lately, I wonder if Yamato is eventually going to do a VF-1D?? Quote
Dante74 Posted July 21, 2006 Author Posted July 21, 2006 Did the angel birds appear in DYRL?? If they didn't, why does it have the chickenhands? Quote
Hurin Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Thanks for the news (RYO and Dante)! Posted on the Nexus! Got a profile for this one now up here too. Quote
vf1_soulja Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Ehh.. doesn't pique my interest. I'd rather Yamato give us some two-seat VF-A version. Quote
Die, Alien Scum! Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Did the angel birds appear in DYRL??If they didn't, why does it have the chickenhands? 418111[/snapback] I don't recall seeing any in DYRL, but it still has the chicken hands for perfect transformation. As far as I can tell, all the 1/48s come with chicken hands for this specific reason. But hopefully Yamato will include the TV fat hands with these as well. Quote
gian7675 Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 Weee! Beautiful! I'll get one of these! I hope Yamato includes the Cluster and Micro Missiles. They did include the gunpod anyway. Beautiful! My dream valk has finally been ass produced! Quote
Hurin Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 Beautiful! My dream valk has finally been ass produced! 418169[/snapback] Apparently the bad-word filter is now allowing that one. Quote
aaajin Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 kewl. Maybe Ill drop some cash for one of these babes.....Well, cant wait what the box art's gonna look like...hope they change the usual lame lookin box that we had so far. anyway, this, and the VF-0S are very good looking valks in fighter mode!

izzyfcuk Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 Again..this shows that they will never do an Elint and Ostrich Quote
nightmareB4macross Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 Again..this shows that they will never do an Elint and Ostrich 418190[/snapback] It might not gives us the two-seaters, yet. But it could lead us to TV Max and Kakizake, since they are still milking the VF-1A molds. And who knows, they're might even be a very, very slim chance that the VF-1A Kakizake from DYRL could be produced. Please Yamato hear my prayers. Quote
jenius Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 Again..this shows that they will never do an Elint and Ostrich I disagree, I think it shows these molds are now profitable enough where they could pretty much spit out whatever they want since costs have been recouped. Extra profits now can be funneled toward new molds like the 1/60 0s, 19s... and who knows what else. Quote
RYO Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 (edited) Thanks for the news (RYO and Dante)! Posted on the Nexus!Got a profile for this one now up here too. 418112[/snapback] Thanks!!! Over on the Macross World Forums, Dante74 (with some help from RYO) has posted an image of the next VF-1 in the Yamato 1/48-scale line. The "Angel Birds" color scheme. . . LOLz! I'd just like to correct your assumption...I did not help Dante74, he jumped the gun on making this thread when he saw my inquiry on this thread, no offense to Dante74 ofcourse...Ultimately, a BIG thanks to Hobby Stock for the very early scoop... Back to topic, I somehow don't like the colorful scheme, I think I'll keep my budget on the VF-0A instead... Edited July 22, 2006 by RYO Quote
Mechamaniac Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 I agree this could definitely lead to a TV Max 1A which would ROCK. However, I really don't know about two seaters. As Captain America said when he made the 1D conversion kits, the 1/48 design DOES NOT lend itself well to modifications. Quote
Hiriyu Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 Extra profits now can be funneled toward new molds like the 1/60 0s, 19s... and Graham knows what else. 418194[/snapback] I took the liberty of editing your quote for veracity An Angel Birds model is a must-buy for me. Bring it on! Quote
Golden Arms Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 This is great news. I can't wait to get one. I've always wanted a angel birds. Hopefully this means that a Kakizaki is still a possible hope. Quote
