Graham Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Guys, The new September 06 issues of Hobby Japan and Dengeki Hobby have CAD lineart of the upcoming 1/72 Reactive Armour kit by Hasegawa, for the VF-0S battroid. I'll get the pics scanned and posted tonight when I get home. Not sure if the kit will include the battroid or will be armor only. Graham Quote
Guest Bromgrev Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Either (or both) will be a good thing. Quote
Valkyrie Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 No F-ing way.... That's one more thing I can scratch off my scratchbuild list Quote
deadghost Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 No F-ing way....That's one more thing I can scratch off my scratchbuild list 418784[/snapback] Oh no way, should I go ahead and purchase a vf-0 or should I wait for a updated version. and any word for a kit version Quote
Valkyrie Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Oh no way, should I go ahead and purchase a vf-0 or should I wait for a updated version. and any word for a kit version 418785[/snapback] I'm sure they'll make it part of another VF-0 kit, instead of selling it as a seperate add-on kit. After all, this is Hasegawa we're talking about. They never pass up an oportunity to sell you the same kit one more time Quote
Graham Posted July 24, 2006 Author Posted July 24, 2006 OK guys, here's the scan of the CAD lineart of the upcoming Hasegawa 1/72 scale Reactive Armor for the VF-0S, from the new September 2006 issue of Dengeki Hobby magazine! The VF-0A battroid shown at the bottom of the page should be Wave's upcoming 1/100 scale VF-0A battroid, the second kit in their Macross Zero line. Click to enlarge Graham Quote
Chas Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 (edited) Wow this looks great. I must say though, in that line art the 'biceps' loook awefully skinny with the armour in place. Edited July 24, 2006 by Chas Quote
cool8or Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Great!!! This make me think why Hasegawa don't made the Armor for VF-1 Battroids.... Quote
big F Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Oh darn that will be another Hasegawa kit to buy then Great!!! This make me think why Hasegawa don't made the Armor for VF-1 Battroids.... 418834[/snapback] Thats exactly what I was thinking Quote
MechTech Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 I love Hasegawa, but I'm already married! I build 1/200, but I'm gettin' one o' these babies! Who wants to make the resin accessories to show it opened up showing all it's armament? Quote

Gabe Q Posted July 25, 2006 Posted July 25, 2006 I'm actually kind of surprised by this offering from Hasegawa. It just doesn't seem like they can milk the molds on this one. How are they going to come up with variants of this armor's scheme? I mean, come on, are we gonna see a fuschia minmay guard version or something similarly fruity one day??? Quote
Graham Posted July 25, 2006 Author Posted July 25, 2006 I'll get the scan from Hobby Japan up tonight also. Graham Quote
sketchley Posted July 25, 2006 Posted July 25, 2006 Big question - will the Armour's hip-mounted grenades be removable and will the hands be able to grab them? Al la the MG Zaku. Quote
94medition Posted July 25, 2006 Posted July 25, 2006 Graham, thanks for the great news! The scan says the price is not set, and it is available some time in fall. Any specific info? Quote
