Wicked Ace Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 I've had a little to much to drink. I'm just saying to much. Hey, this is my line.
eugimon Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 Well, write a how-to why don't_cha. heh, it's too hot around here for that sort of stuff. besides, I'm sure there are other folk lurking about who could write a much better manual than me.

I'm tired of you, so I'm not going to show you my warehouse full of Lov-vis Valkyries, which are individually stored along with my Lamborghini collection for safe keeping -- in the desert. Oh, and on toipic, the 1/60 scale YF-21 is there, too. Edited September 1, 2007 by Wicked Ace
Wicked Ace Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 And, I'm not even sure what a Lov-vis Valkyrie is.

Wicked Ace Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 (edited) I'm excited about the SV-51 release, but I really want to see more of the "high speed, low drag" YF-21 we've been promised. Edited September 1, 2007 by Wicked Ace
ruskiiVFaussie Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 Whats the crap about my 1/60 YF-21 being a pile of crappy plastic. You wanna go?? YOU WANNA GO CHAMP??!!!? BY CRIKEY!
ruskiiVFaussie Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 *snort* but seriously by crikey! ... hahahha Bloody Gundamers
Guest sh002 Posted September 8, 2007 Posted September 8, 2007 as soon as someone notices the early bird preorder for it on hlj, please post that it is ready. i think last time i missed the early bird for the yf-19. thanks.
ruskiiVFaussie Posted September 8, 2007 Posted September 8, 2007 (edited) i'll be early birding, but i'd dare say if the QC is perfect i'll do a kensei/godzilla and buy a crate of 4/5 whatever instead. But the question is... what combo packs will this have? Fold and ?? Edited September 8, 2007 by ruskiiVFaussie
MasterOfPuppets Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 But the question is... what combo packs will this have? Fold and ?? Fast packs?
halfan Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 Nice clean pictures of the battroid CAD drawing here and of fighter mode here. There's also a few pictures of Nora's SV-51 as well.
Nani?! Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 Nice clean pictures of the battroid CAD drawing here and of fighter mode here. There's also a few pictures of Nora's SV-51 as well. thanks for the heads up halfan, The hands look nice. Legs still look small but I'm really wondering how this think looks in 3D. I wonder when they'll release the proto pics.
Ignacio Ocamica Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 I agree about the legs looking small, specially the feet! I'm sure the proto pics will do it more justice
Priss! Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 (edited) The legs look really small , and the feet tiny.. but i think the proto will be awsome Edited September 9, 2007 by Priss!
Swoosh Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 (edited) Looks top heavy, I expect a display stand to come with it. Edited September 9, 2007 by Swoosh
eugimon Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 here's a quick fix I did of the image to try and get rid of the wonky angle:
PsYcHoDyNaMiX Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 Hmm... From the looks of it the YF-21 may get the leg swing bar like the VF-1/0. -=X
kensei Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 It's probably the best design yet, the most solid that can hold a pose. They just have to be think like the 1/48 VF-1. I don't like the skinny legs much at the moment, but CAD drawings mean squat to me. I'm not in that area or work and i have trouble imagining that in 3D. I'll wait for the coloured prototypes.
Nani?! Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 Those hands dont look like the standard chicken paws. Graham, can you confirm that they're made specially for the yf-21? The more I look at the frontal shot of the battroid the better it's looking to me. Looks like we got something really special to look forward to.
Dante74 Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 I hope it can remain standing with those tiny feet.
Sumdumgai Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 Maybe the the finger joints will actually be articulated? So far I'm impressed, although bits and pieces look a bit off. I'll wait for prototype pics, I'm sure that it'll alleviate all the little doubts and fears that are gnawing at me when I see the cad art. I agree with you Nani?! , it feels like this one is going to be very special.
Roy's Blues Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 I'm not so worried about the hands. I am worried about the small feet, landing gear storage and gunpod storage. Let's be clear. This is my absolute favorite VF. I have extremely high hopes for this release. If Yamato F's this one up, I'm done. I will get the VF-0D and that's it. BOB and me will be bro's tarnishing Yamato's name.
Mr March Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 That looks fantastic! I agree with kensei that this baby looks solid. I personally don't mind the smaller legs, especially since we've all come to expect this is the only way the YF-21 can be done as a transformable. I love the proportions for the most part. This YF-21 does seem a big large in the upper body, but no more so than the large torso proportions on the 1/48 scale VF-1. So far, this sculpt is looking great.
Valkyrie addict Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 thanks for the CAD, man, those feets look tiny...hmmm....but maybe it can bring extra WIDE feet like the 1/48 extra clown hands... hehehhee that would be sweet
konimon Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 (edited) Side armors look so much thinner compared to 1/72, so I still keep high hope for this one. I wonder if there's any gimmick to extend forward fuselarge from Battroid to fighter mode. Edited September 9, 2007 by konimon

This YF-21 does seem a big large in the upper body, but no more so than the large torso proportions on the 1/48 scale VF-1. So far, this sculpt is looking great. yeah, I think it's looking pretty cool. I like the that the entire leg is going to lay flat, unlike the 1/72 where the leg twisted at the thigh. Plus, I'm thinking that proper posing will do a lot to obscure or even negate the broad upper torso, I know I don't notice it in the 1/48 vf-1 when I have mine posed in an A stance.
Uxi Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 Looks great to me. Legs or feet don't look too small to me, and I'll love if those hands have individually articulated fingers instead of being another chicken hand rehash.
dizman Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 That looks pretty good so far, yeah the feet are alittle small but it will probably change by the time it gets to proto stage (remeber the small wings on the Yf-19 cad). Maybe the upper torso will have an automorph gimmick .
Guest sh002 Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 (edited) hell no please no automorph. stupid toys and their special gimmicks. press this button to hear 5 sounds from macross plus. Edited September 9, 2007 by sh002
Lonewolf Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 Ah crap, my wife and my wallet are really going to hate me for buying this baby when it gets out.
