Macross World Daddy Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 I am new here and want to say hello to all. I am a long time fan of the show and hardcore Macross/Robotech fan. I got this "leaked" list a few days ago from a close friend (his brother allegedly works for Yamato) that says this is Yamato's schedule for the next two year but I didn't know how reliable this info was, so I laughed at it and told him to get a life. Now, with Graham’s news, my bud did nail the YF-21 so who knows..... Regardless, here is the list: 2008 1/60 YF-21 (March) 1/60 Reactive armor for VF-0 (May) 1/60 VF-0B (July) 1/60 VF-0D (Aug) 1/60 VF-11 (Sep) 1/60 VF-19 Ravens version (Nov) And the grand finally...................1/48 VF-4 Lightning !!!!!! (Dec.) 2009 1/60 VF-22 Max 1/60 VF-22 Millia 1/60 VF-0? Color variant 1/60 VF-19 Macross 7 1/48 VE-1 Elintseeker 1/48 VT-1 Super O And the grand finally...................1/48 VF-1D!!!! Once again, I am not sure how true this is and I am guessing he might be talking out of his a$$ but I guess we will find out. MM
Fly4victory Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Hope that your source is accurate about the VF-4, 11, and 22. Sad that the VF-5000 does not appear. Rather odd the SV-51 does not reappear.
Roy's Blues Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Accurate or not this thread will probably set a speed record for being locked
KiriK Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Accurate or not this thread will probably set a speed record for being locked speculation threads get locked???
Macross73 Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Accurate or not this thread will probably set a speed record for being locked very likely but if the 1/48 ve1 and vt1 and vf1d come out then
jenius Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 LOL, looks like a bunch of wishful thinking to me. No 25th anniversary valks? No VF-1 repaint? A 0b and a 0d hot on the heels? Nah, I think anyone could have guessed on the YF-21.
Roy's Blues Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 The last time one of these threads was started, and info was leaked Yamato Execs were extremley pissed off. They threatened to cut all ties with the G man, IIRC.
Macross73 Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 its not he that they should put blame on . besides is it real or just a way to stir up the crowds?
TheLoneWolf Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 COUGHBULLSH1TCOUGH Yamato has never released that many physically different VF's in such a short amount. If they did they would oversaturate the market. Now go play in traffic.
eugimon Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 I too doubt they would release the VF-11 and VF-4 within months of each other. Yamato has been pretty consistent with 2 uniqge valks per year or so with various repaints and variations in between.
nightmareB4macross Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 I too doubt they would release the VF-11 and VF-4 within months of each other. Yamato has been pretty consistent with 2 uniqge valks per year or so with various repaints and variations in between. That's exactly what I was thinking. Besides doing only repaints, let's not forget repackaging. There should be at least a few bundle sets from what I see.
Dante74 Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 I call bullsh!t. Graham allready stated that Yamato will NOT be releasing any 1/48 two-seaters.
Sumdumgai Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Quick, nuke the thread before the Yamato ninjas see it and usher in another news blackout!!!!

Once again, I am not sure how true this is and I am guessing he might be talking out of his a$$ but I guess we will find out. MM Another thing to note is, why would the VF-1D be a grand finally. I would think it would be easier to resculpt, redesign, and execute the 1D from the VF-1 platform, rather than the VE-1 or the VT-1? I just hope your list come to life, eventhough my wallet cries at the mere sight of this thread.
do not disturb Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 ummm....when the heck has yamato released so many different valks(not a bunch of repaints) in that short of a time? how about never.
UN Spacy Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Fanboy lists aside. This guy get's props for using 6 exclamation points AFTER the VF-4. That's my dream VF too.
baronv Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Well if this list was true, it would have had more credibility if this came out weeks or months ago prior to Graham confirming the 1/60 YF-21. This coming out just today and saying that they were right on the YF-21 date only AFTER it was announced seems a bit sneaky to me. I am hoping for the VF-0 armor though.
PsYcHoDyNaMiX Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 HEY!!! There's something wrong about the list... Where is Nora's SV-51?
Duymon Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 A Yammy VF-1d would be so easy to make as Moscato has already proved (though if yammy made it we'd have a stiff canopy instead of a semi-soft one) Sadly, I'd only buy the YF-21, VF-11 and VT / VE
Max is a Genius Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Still Max and Milia VF-22 whould be very sweet
eugimon Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Still Max and Milia VF-22 whould be very sweet I think thats a strong possibility.
David Hingtgen Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Graham said Yamato has like NO chance/desire/intention to release a VF-4, and has repeated that for years. Plus the whole M7 license issue means no M&M -22's.
Godzilla Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 I call BS. 1/48s are done. Unless yamato changed their minds but the list sounds too perfect and I dunno who this Macross World Daddy is. Not that I am calling him a liar but a guy with 2 posts to his name and posts this news? Sorry but it seems suspicious but I am always weary till I know that person well.
Valkyrie addict Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 haha!! that list is way too perfect like everyone has noted, it's like the compilation of 5 different members signatures ^_^ anyway! besides, like pointed before, the release dates in between each valk is too close, people won't have enough time to sell their organs for that huge amount of diffrente valks in the course of two years, but still, very optimistic listing hmm...perhaps this new member is some drunken yamato exec yanking our chains, hahaha, they do like to drink a lot, don't they? ahaha
eugimon Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Graham said Yamato has like NO chance/desire/intention to release a VF-4, and has repeated that for years. Plus the whole M7 license issue means no M&M -22's. Well, since bandai isn't doing anything with it, I'm sure BW would rather have it go to yamato than renew with bandai. it may take a while, but I think eventually we'll see the M&M vf-22 set.
EXO Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 It's more like a wish list. Even if it was from anyone from Yamato, I doubt it would be anywhere near accurate from what would really come out. We've had these spec lists before and we'll keep getting them and none of them will be on target. You get one or two come to reality and that'l be enough for someone to say "i told you so."
theplasticwerks Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 (edited) Yeah, I'm calling on this. We'd have seen a few prototypes by now. EDIT: Well, okay, maybe not prototypes. But 30th anniversary or not, that's a lot to put out in a year. How long did it take Yamato between mere repaints? Edited July 24, 2007 by theplasticwerks
CF18 Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 One major thing missing from this list - Macross 25. It seems unlikely that Yamato would miss their license for Macross 25 designs while retaining the license for older Macross. Big West would love to be able to flood the market with Macross toys like Gunpla, but they can only do that with multiple toy makers. We will probably see Yamato do the high-end toys while Kaiyodo or others do the med-range toys.
Graham Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Sorry guys, that list is definitely false. Lots of stuff coming that isn't even on that list and some stuff on that list that is definitely not coming. Graham
Arthurius Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Guys, what is a vf-22, and for that matter, what is a vf-22 max or milia. Any pictures what this could look like, in anime maybe?
