penachoy Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 (edited) I wanted to share this with you guys. I came across this picture at a website. Taken from Tokyo Animation Fair 2007. Does anyone know if this is official Yamato to be released edition or just a custom by someone?... in any case looks good. Another High color valk like the angel bird. Thanks!

eugimon Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 oh lord, I HOPE those are fan made customs... they're pretty hideous. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 seems like a custom, but the 1982-2007 date highlighted makes you think... Quote
Sumdumgai Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 My god those ARE hideous. Please say it ain't so! Quote
UN Spacy Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Please tell me that's what Yamato isn't planning the 25th anniversary with. LOL. Quote
Busted VF1A Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Um, wow... Gaudy is all I can think at the moment. I'll cast my vote as fan customs . They kinda resemble the "Space Proving Wing" marking I've seen somewhere else, but only kinda. Then again didn't someone (Graham mabey? not sure) say there was a non-canon, Kawamori designed scheme coming for the YF-19? I'd hate to think this was it Quote
jenius Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 I think both would look better in person. The YF-19 doesn't look as bad as the VF-1J also. Quote
Roy's Blues Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Pass! They look like Power Ranger Megazords! Quote
eugimon Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Very poor choice of colors. Yuk! oh yeah, dark navy blue just doesn't play nice with red. Quote
Crazy Canuck II Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 I hope for everyone's sake those are fan customs. Besides if Yamato was going to do a 25th anniversary edition Vf-1, this scheme seems like a no-brainer: http://www.macrossworld.com/macross/magazines/mgpg12.jpg Hello... 2500th valk. 25th anniversary.... Duh! Quote
xsjado Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 that's scary. i really hope the don't waste money releasing those schemes. if that comes out before a tv max 1A, i will be nothing short of perplexed. Quote
Awacs Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Hmmm. Very odd looking schemes. I suspect they probably are customs of some sort - but that is purely a hunch. I think I may be in a minority of one but I actually don't mind those colours on the YF-19's Battroid mode. I actually prefer them to the idea of the alternate Project Supernova schemes, (Of course as I am somewhat colourblind I may not be the best judge of these things), do think that the scheme doesn't work on the VF-1 at all.

KiriK Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 if it was a custom... why would they paint up 2 valks to show it in different modes??? i think usually those are displayed like that to show off a new color scheme so i'm thinking these will probably come out.... i dunno if i'd pick one up... but maybe just because it's different.... i wanna see the 19 fighter mode of this paint scheme.... shift the camera to the left!!!

BoBe-Patt Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 yuk! no way am I spending money on that! Now if they would finally make the minmay guards.... Quote
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 (edited) They look like the first custom of a beginner. But yeah, as kiririth said those are too many valks just for a custom. I don't believe you guys anymore when you say that's a repaint you'll never gonna get. You all said the same when the Stealth and Low Vis 2 were first shown and now they're sold out everywhere. Go ahead, blame Godzilla and Sith Lord now Edited March 27, 2007 by Lonely Soldier Boy Quote

Go ahead, blame Godzilla and Sith Lord now hah, I still don't own a low viz 2 or an angel bird, and I won't be owning these even if they are official anniversary valk. Quote
mister_e Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 (edited) Looks like I'm in the minority. I kind of like 'em. Well, the VF-1 at least. I guess I'm just a sucker for the VF-1. Sure it's not the BEST looking VF-1 repaint, but I'd buy one if it was released. I just wish it was a 1S and not a 1J, that's my only real complaint. Edited March 26, 2007 by mister_e Quote
Nightbat Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 ...Say it ain't so Graham,... Say it ain't so! (Me thinks it's a custom in a cabinet: since when does Yamato display Macross Zippo lighters with their products) Quote
jenius Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 The paint jobs don't look very smooth... almost hand-painted (or maybe it's my monitor) which is what really leads me to believe they're customs... then again maybe they're mock-ups. Quote
Arthurius Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 (edited) Well, i kinda like the look of the vf-1 in plane mode, but not crazy about it in robot mode. Thus wont buy it. And the yf-19??? Bahhhhhh, will wait for low vis/stealth. Edited March 27, 2007 by Arthurius Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 That's.... crap. Both of them. Please Yamato bring something better than that out for 25 Years Anni! Quote
Sumdumgai Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 When I said I was waiting for a repaint 19, this isn't what I had in mind... Quote
connor99 Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 The VF-1 in fighter mode kinda reminds me of a G1 DECEPTICON THRUST . Thanks, but no thanks! Quote
Mog Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 More importantly, what's the deal with the kite logos? They don't look right (unless this is the new symbol for the new series...........which would be wrong for so many reasons). Quote
daisuki Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 the vf1 is hideous but the color scheme of the yf-19 is not so bad. I would see the fighter mode to have an opinion. Quote
odr78 Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 (edited) My Eyes!!!! Me to !!! It's burning my eyes..... I can't see anymore...... I'm Blind Edited March 27, 2007 by odr78 Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 Two valks, two modes, the kite, those spirit of valkyrie emblems, 1982-2007... Something tells me it's the HFH planned scheme for the YF-19 and VF-1 So sad. Quote
