Swoosh Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Hi Swoosh, If you can read chinese, any complaints about the sv-51 in Toys Daily ? No complaint because these pic came from Japan....
ikhii Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 (edited) Oh... My.... Dear.... :blink: Yamato has done it again. Out do themselves. Hope this baby don't crack and break. It melts my heart.... I can't wait ... CAN'T WAIT anymore.... err... at least for another week? :wacko: Now all we need is the other 'Pink' lady to match up with Shin Edited July 19, 2007 by ikhii
kensei Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Man talk about active stealth. This release has not much pre-release pictures eh? You were saying?
kensei Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Those over the wing boosters look like a damn stupid place to put them. Alas, that is Kawamori's fault, not Yamato's...they were only following the schematics.
Swoosh Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 why no tempo print on tailfin.... But tampo printed on the other side? Please please, Yamato, tampo print them...
Swoosh Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Dang it show us the nose fold joint, i want to see how that thing folds back on here and doesn't require removing the nose gear. They did it by not closing the front landing gear's doors.
Ignacio Ocamica Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Thanks for the pics!!!! I concluded it's my favorite VF, only rivaled by a possible 1/60 YF-21 by Yamato. I preordered two, but I think I'll buy another one. One for each mode
kensei Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Congrats to the person who foresaw the way that Yamato would design the nose fold joint.
kensei Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Look at the amount of moving parts....incredible....
charger69 Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 (edited) wait a minute there is a fourth picture! Edited July 19, 2007 by charger69
mechaninac Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Look at the amount of moving parts....incredible.... Intriguing, Inviting, and scary all at the same time, isn't it?
kensei Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 (edited) Intriguing, Inviting, and scary all at the same time, isn't it? That's why I'm only buying one. If all is good, and there is no possibility of improvement, then I will get a further 6. Ya hear THAT Yamato!? Get it right and 1 person will buy 7!!! Edited July 19, 2007 by kensei
Vermillion21 Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Thanks for the great pics Swoosh. I remain cautiously optimistic .... and won't even consider buying until a review. Would be nice to see a nice side profile view of the fighter, to see if the landing gears really support the fighter and if there's no "airplane broken back" syndrome.
Swoosh Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 wait a minute there is a fourth picture! haha, sharp eye, added back now, thank you
eugimon Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 oh man, that thing is just awesome. I love the detail work on the canopy. I'm going to have to break down and get a first release.
Ignacio Ocamica Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 oh man, that thing is just awesome. I love the detail work on the canopy. I'm going to have to break down and get a first release. NOOOOOOO!!!! Don't you know ALL Yamato first releases are plagued with QC defects and will inevitably break and turn useless :lol: Damn, I don't know why I keep preordering Must be cause I've yet have to break one
kensei Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Just do the safe thing and order one first, like me. If its good, then you can batch the rest you want to buy.
PsYcHoDyNaMiX Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Yea I sense a first batch of broken SV-51 to go with the first batch of broken VF-0S(s). I've pre-ordered one already, but just like my VF-0S that came from the first wave... the SV-51 is going to stay in the box. I'll just order spare parts if possible in the future when I order a second one with less QC probs. Eventually one of them is going to get modded. L.E.D. LIGHTS!!!! YOU HEAR THAT YAMATO!!! YOU NEED L.E.D.s!!!!! IN THE EYES!!!!!

YOU NEED L.E.D.s!!!!! IN THE EYES!!!!! Don't worry, stay possitive!!!! Remember you are buying a toy and it's supposed to be fun I was being sarcastic with my post from above. I have high hopes for this release. I like what I see and I know I'm gonna be very satisfied!! Edited July 19, 2007 by Ignacio Ocamica
eugimon Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 I'm just hoping for at least yf-19 level quality. I'll be more than happy with that. But I'm thinking we'll be surprised and this will be the best release in terms of QC and design issues. *fingers crossed*
Sumdumgai Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Holy crap, that baby looks awesome! I will resist and not get one, because I don't like the SV-51, but damn if Yamato doesn't make it tempting anyway...
do not disturb Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 looks tight but i'll wait for the verdict to come in.
odr78 Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Yamatoed already Bye bye +200 dollars Damned..... Me too...... Bewar of blast... if you look me.... Forgive me....
UN Spacy Posted July 19, 2007 Author Posted July 19, 2007 Beautfiul but they're only pictures. I need several good reviews before putting some cash down for one.
Lonewolf Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 (edited) Those are really great photos. I hope my wallet will let me buy one someday. As far as 1st release QC problems are a concern, I have yet to suffer from them. My 1st release 1/60 YF-19 is perfect with not stress marks and still very tight. The crooked gunpod was easily fixed so it's not a big issu to me. Quite a nice engineering feat was accomplished in the SV-51. EDIT : Spelling Edited July 19, 2007 by Lonewolf
baronv Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Oh my, those photos make the SV-51 super sweet looking even more! I guess my saving up for a new golf driver club will be replaced by this new toy instead. Hopefully they won't make me pay big bucks if I get this at Frank & Sons.
Vermillion21 Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Just do the safe thing and order one first, like me. If its good, then you can batch the rest you want to buy. Just out of curiousity kensei ... may I ask: exactly how many 1/48 and 1/60 VFs do you own? I thought MW member Godzilla was the resident "valkyrie hoarder" LOL.
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 The sculpt I don't have any gripes with. The potencial QC issues is another story, so I'm too waiting for the reviews. I wish I was a pathological optimist like my countryman Ignacio here, but Yamato keeps releasing defective first releases. I finally decided to order a second edition YF-19 after reading all the reports, and tho' it hasn't arrived yet, I feel very confident about my purchase.
DARKWIND Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 NOOOOOOO!!!! Don't you know ALL Yamato first releases are plagued with QC defects and will inevitably break and turn useless :lol: Damn, I don't know why I keep preordering Must be cause I've yet have to break one Same here bro. . .
