CF18 Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 (edited) Found in new hobby show pictures http://www.rakuten.ne.jp/gold/be-j/sin1010/index17.htm Yamato is of course showing off the 1:48 VF1J with fastpacks, but look at what is standing next to it? Come on Graham you can tell us the truth now. Edit: min's own photo: Found by slaxed: Edited October 11, 2003 by CF18 Quote
CHAN Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MMMMMMMMMMMMMYYYYYYYYYYYY GOOOOOOOOOOODD!!!!!!! The GBP!!!!!! Quote
VF-1Guy Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 Is it a Yamato? The hand doesn't look like the standard 1/60 hand. Quote
bandit29 Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 I wonder if that GBP is all one figure? And not a 1/60 with the armor added..the hands are different... Quote
Draykov Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 (edited) Found in new hobby show pictureshttp://www.rakuten.ne.jp/gold/be-j/sin1010/index08.htm Yamato is of course showing off the 1:48 VF1J with fastpacks, but look at what is standing next to it? Come on Graham you can tell us the truth now. BTW what up with the purple helmet here? http://www.rakuten.ne.jp/gold/be-j/sin1010/index11.htm This thread makes me wonder if I'd even buy a GBP in 1/60 if they released one. I'd be very tempted to hold out for one in 1/48, but then again, I might not be able to resist the temptation. I wonder if they'd release it with another VF-1J or if they'd release the armor by itself, like the 1/48 fast packs. Edited October 9, 2003 by Draykov Quote
izzyfcuk Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 please let it be GBP, a lot of our prayers will be answered Quote
JsARCLIGHT Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 For those who are having a hard time seeing it: Quote
Uxi Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 (edited) WOW. Definately will be joining my collection, if it's for real! The hands are definately different.... but then again given the forearms of the GBP I wouldn't be surprised if the toys pop out hands don't "reach" all the way (if they're not blocked entirely by the design). Who's VF-0S design is that (page 7)? Edited October 9, 2003 by Uxi Quote
Nightbat Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 GPB Armor? *opens wallet, checks his CC, looks at paycheck* Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!! Quote
williwoods Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 I bet the vf-0 is from hasegawa!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
ChristopherB Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 Hello, It would be totally sweet if that ends up being a Yamato. It makes sense, because I would not think that Yamato would allow a either a custom valkyrie or another companies kit to be placed on their display and next to their products. If it is true, then perhaps the 1/48 will follow suit. Sincerely, Christopher B) Quote
Weaseldancer Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 Could our prayers have been answered? Quote
Jawjaw Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 Wow, I am suprised to see that and more suprised that nobody mentioned it before if it was in a show. I thought Yamato was finished with 1/60 scale but I guess not. Cool beans! Quote
LePoseur Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 (edited) To those who doubt based solely on the hands.... Oh ye of little faith, has not Yamato already shown you TV hands on a 1/48? Do you think our 1/60's so lowly that they too should not recieve such a gift? To Yamato... Throw in a TV Hikaru pilot and I am so, so, in baby. Edit: off topic, but besides the purple helmet (man, feel dirty just typing it ), what's up with the Gauges from Appleseed on page 9?!? I was all like "Gauges! Cool!" until I looked at the legs.... Those don't look like any Gauges legs I remember. Plus, if Yamato's gonna make me buy a new Bri, they could atlest make some more changes to 'em, give him moveable legs at least... shesh.

EXO Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 (edited) Looks like a 1/48 to me... maybe set back on the table a little... wishful thinking... <_>BTW, nice find CF-18! Edited October 9, 2003 by >EXO< Quote

Do you think our 1/60's so lowly that they too should not recieve such a gift? To Yamato... Throw in a TV Hikaru pilot and I am so, so in, baby. The hands make me wonder if this is a non-transformable valk with the armor permanently attached. I would like to see a better picture. I would also like to see a better picture of the 1/48 pilot.

Mad Dawg Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 I am not convinced it is Yammie 1/60. It looks a little too short. The shoulders just aren't right. And those hands!!! Gah!!! No 1/60 TV Valk released thus far has such gargantuan manos. I mean, those things are big enough to burn diesel. I will wait for Graham to confirm. And if I am wrong, I am wrong. Ain't nothin' wrong with a little humble pie. Quote
LePoseur Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 VF-0S Well, I guess this picture answers the question of if the VF-0 will have FAST packs. For those that missed it, they are on the legs. And before anyone freaks, these look more in line with something that would be on an atmospheric fighter and not in space - returning to the original, real-world, style FAST packs I guess. Quote
pfunk Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 PLEASE MAKE IT 1/48 or I'll never have one.................................only Graham knows Quote
VF-0S FAN Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 Blackace you just have to make a complete review of this Tokyo Hobby Show Quote
Vostok 7 Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 VF-0S Well, I guess this picture answers the question of if the VF-0 will have FAST packs. For those that missed it, they are on the legs. And before anyone freaks, these look more in line with something that would be on an atmospheric fighter and not in space - returning to the original, real-world, style FAST packs I guess. I would say their more extra fuel tanks like what we see on current day fighters. Smooth move, Kawamori-san! And those are Hasegawas. I soooo can't wait for the Hasegawa SV-51!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Vostok 7 Quote
Draykov Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 I wonder if those helmets will turn up at any cosplay conventions. Quote
Anubis Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 Maybe this is why the VF-1J Hikaru was not announced along with the re-issue Roy Strike, and M&M valks. VF-1J w/ GBP. Maybe there is hope for a Hikaru Strike after all. 1/60 GBP 1J? If it's true, then I'll be buying another 1/60 after all. After Millia of course. Other possibility is a hasegawa, wouldn't surprise me since they already released the fast and strike pack vf-1's. Quote
recon Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 more helmets Hi Slaxed, could we have closeups on the 1/48 VF-1S Hikaru with Fps or any larger pictures of the GPB? Thanks Boy i do hope they will make the GPB armor for the VF-1J, anyways i will be getting the 1/48 VF-1J with Fps, slapped the Fps onto the VF-1S Roy, there you have an accurate VF-1S TV version. And my VF-1J will wait for its GPB armor hopefully. Cheers Quote

Lightning Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 (edited) well, i think it's a little better, i sharpened it. EDIT: once i figure out the enhance option on this program, i will enhance the pic. Edited October 9, 2003 by Lightning 06 Quote
