do not disturb Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 more 1/144 scale stuff to go along with my doyusha valks. i hope these are toys and not little model kits, that would suck. Quote
ShadowerV2 Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 The Strikes look good. But there's no Max inside the lot. Not so good. Quote
recon Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 Looks yummy, tks for the pics graham. Looks like will be getting some of these as a decor for my office desk... Quote
Gabe Q Posted December 24, 2006 Posted December 24, 2006 Those look real nice the proportions are good. I'll pick up a set. Quote
jenius Posted December 24, 2006 Posted December 24, 2006 Do they all get fast packs? Seems like some come with reflex missiles but no fast packs. I guess there's nothing really wrong with that... just looks a little different. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted December 25, 2006 Posted December 25, 2006 I LOVE doyusha's valks, so i'm getting all of these. Quote
Graham Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 Here's the latest pics of these lil' Valks. I love the one painted in Zentradi colors, just like Max's TV VF-1A wearing a Zentradi jacket. Graham Quote
Golden Arms Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 Damnit I was gonna pass on those, but seeing them now I might have to pick up a set. Quote
promethuem5 Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 Wow, I have no use for them, but those look really really nice... what's the bottom pic showing tho? Are the legs posable? And yeah, the Zentraedi scheme one is neat... almost neat enough to try on a Yamato figure... *hmmmm...* The only thing I don't like about those pics is that they didn't make any attempt at hiding the mold seam on the booster pods... kinda bugs me... Quote
Graham Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 what's the bottom pic showing tho? Are the legs posable? The bottom pic is completely unrelated. It's part of an ongoing article on customising a Hasegawa. Graham Quote
mister_e Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 Minor nitpick, but they have 011 on the Hikaru VF-1S instead of 001 Quote
Graham Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 It really looks like these are heavily based on the Hasegawa sculpt, right down to the design of the FAST pack side verniers. Graham Quote
chowyunskinny Posted January 26, 2007 Author Posted January 26, 2007 That Zentradi scheme is pretty cool! It's probably going to be the chase one though, DAMMIT Thanks for the pic Graham Quote
Black Valkyrie Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 Yup they look wonderful, I wonder if the legs come down. Quote
Graham Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 AFAIK, the legs are fixed. Looks like the front landing gear on the Focker VF-1S Strike is collapsing......LOL! Wonder what the material is, ABS, diecast, hard PVC? My bet is on hard PVC. Hope they hold together well and don't have parts falling off all the time! Graham Quote
wolfx Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 Coming from CM's....i'm afraid of it being PVC and being very loose on parts. >_> And wished these came with stands. You can make a Skull Squadron for cheap. Quote
mojacko Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 these little ones are Cute....my eyes are on the Zentraedi Valk....nice!!! Quote
kensei Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 AFAIK, the legs are fixed. Looks like the front landing gear on the Focker VF-1S Strike is collapsing......LOL! Wonder what the material is, ABS, diecast, hard PVC? My bet is on hard PVC. Hope they hold together well and don't have parts falling off all the time! Graham I noted the new 2007 date again. What is the bottom caption about? I see the word VF-0 and PG! Quote
bigkid24 Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 The only one that interests me is the Zentradi valk but since that's the only one that interests everyone else......I don't want to bother. Quote
jenius Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 I can't wait until I get my next paycheck so I can do my massive Preorder I've been planning... these just made the list Quote
Dante74 Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 I noted the new 2007 date again. What is the bottom caption about? I see the word VF-0 and PG! I'm sure that if that was a PG VF-0 it would be feature perfect transformation, not three different knee caps for different poses. Not that I would mind being able to buy a PG Valk of any kind. Quote
jenius Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 The bottom pic is completely unrelated. It's part of an ongoing article on customising a Hasegawa. Graham Quote
Knight26 Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 What is the cost going to be, if it is cheap I think my stepson would like them. Quote
Black Valkyrie Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 AFAIK, the legs are fixed. Hope they hold together well and don't have parts falling off all the time! Graham Too bad about the legs though. As for the falling parts ... super glue, I always do that with my loose figures. Quote
Hiriyu Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 These look great. I love small scale stuff, particularly if it looks as nice as these do. I can't wait until I get my next paycheck so I can do my massive Preorder I've been planning... these just made the list Jenius (or anyone else), where would you recommend preordering these? Quote
DrunkenMaster2 Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 These look great. I love small scale stuff, particularly if it looks as nice as these do. Jenius (or anyone else), where would you recommend preordering these? Hobby Link Japan has them for Pre-Order for $28.67. http://www.hlj.com/product/UTK81058 Are you sure they are CMS? The one on HLJ says "POPY". They look cool I might get a set. Quote
HoveringCheesecake Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 Alright, there are 10 pieces to a set... does each set include one of each? Quote
jenius Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 Where does HLJ get their conversion rate from?? XE.com says 4500 Yen is $37 not $27. WHOA, HLJ updated while I was typing this. Quote
F360° Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 Hobby Link Japan has them for Pre-Order for $28.67. http://www.hlj.com/product/UTK81058 Are you sure they are CMS? The one on HLJ says "POPY". They look cool I might get a set. it's $37.02 USD Quote
DrunkenMaster2 Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 it's $37.02 USD Your right it's $37.02, I was looking at the wrong price the 28.67 is the EURO price. Quote
EXO Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 So tiny... I would only get these if I was making a diorama... Is that Zentradi valk suppose to be influenced by when Max wore the suit? Nice to see the Angel Bird and the CF included in this set though, now if the toy companies would only recognize the TV Max and Kakizaki valks. Quote
big F Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 Grahams posts should come with a wealth warning. Everytime he posts I want to spend money. I suspect the Zent one will be a chase figure. It reminds me of a zent colour scheme I saw somewhere in the custom valk paint schemes on MW somewhere. Quote
do not disturb Posted January 28, 2007 Posted January 28, 2007 lets hope the chase comes with every set instead of one of those you-might-not-get-one-even-if-you-buy-an-entire-case-haha-sucker type of deals....screw that crap! Quote
hutch Posted January 28, 2007 Posted January 28, 2007 now if the toy companies would only recognize the TV Max and Kakizaki valks. I HEAR THAT. Quote
