Dante74 Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Do you mean you want to see what the battroid looks like? If that's the case, just check the very first post in this thread. Quote
eugimon Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 I'd like to see the various modes with the script on them. Quote
Vermillion21 Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 I'd like to see the various modes with the script on them. Good call mate ... me too. Quote
Grand Admiral Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Ugh... the script looks even worse up close. Quote
mister_e Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 While I do like the YF-19, I already have the normal version and I just don't like the YF-19 enough to buy another. The VF-1S, on the other hand, is a definite buy. I'm pretty much a sucker when it comes to the VF-1 though. Hell, I was probably one of the only people here willing to admit that I would have bought the "Spirit of Valkylie" VF-1J shown earlier. As far as the markings are concerned, I could care less whether they're tampo printed or stickers. Quote
rick dieck Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 mister e i am agree about the vf 1, i think is the best design of all valkryes i will buy all the repaints of the vf 1 to come, i hope they make the vf 1 s super and strike enigma 1:48 and the minmay guard paris act Quote
Nani?! Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Wow, these 25th valks look aiight~ Not bad at all... Unfortunately my valk shopping list has already bulked up considerably... Graham, the people here who wanted the markings to be stickers never really vouched for all tampo printing with the other valks. The people who pushed for tampo before, still push for all tampo~ TAMPO ALL THE WAY!! Quote
Duymon Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 I'll be hoarding 25th valks just for the black heads to put on my stealth squadron Quote
Scream Man Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 I still like the VF-1, but i already have a few and still have a couple more to go to complete the set that I want. This just doesnt fit into those plans sadly. The 19 is to cool to pass up, but the VF-1S is sadly... Quote
sqidd Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 I'll be hoarding 25th valks just for the black heads to put on my stealth squadron I'll be hoarding the 25th YF-19's. At least 4 of them Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 I still like the VF-1, but i already have a few and still have a couple more to go to complete the set that I want. This just doesnt fit into those plans sadly. The 19 is to cool to pass up, but the VF-1S is sadly... Same, I think i'm about done with VF-1's now. Unless they brought out a uber supa kewl can't pass up paint scheme i'll bend over, but sadly this doesn't fit in. On the other hand the YF-19 i only have one. 25th Anni 19 is hawt. Yamato want to make me buy more VF-1's? Try and release the 1D VT and VE. There's 3 already. Quote
Dante74 Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 A Minmay Guard would convince me to buy another 1/48 in a second. Quote
big F Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 A Minmay Guard would convince me to buy another 1/48 in a second. ME too Other than that It would have to be bargin basement Quote
Mowe Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 I'll wait 5 more years for the 30th Anniversary Minmay Guard Moon Phase edition. Actually, interesting to note that they left out the VF-0 for the black repaint...they have likely gave up on the shoulder... Quote
Scream Man Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 I think I may need to put this in my sig: the shin 0A shoulders are FINE! Quote
Mowe Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 (edited) I know your Shin OA is fine, it survived 2 more transformations... Even our own guru agreeds that the VF-0 has a fantastic sculpt. It just seems odd to me that they are not using the VF-0 for the 25th Anni repaint. Surely, someone from Yamato made a conscious decision to dump the VF-0 , you have to wonder....

jenius Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 i'll bend over, but sadly this doesn't fit in. Quote

Maybe they decided not to use the VF-0 because it's not as iconic as the VF-1 and the YF-19. just my two cents. Quote
drifand Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Maybe they decided not to use the VF-0 because it's not as iconic as the VF-1 and the YF-19. just my two cents. It IS iconic, but for the wrong things. Quote
lechuck Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 The 25th valks look OK. But I was sort of secretly hoping that Yamato would give us an updated 1/60 VF-1S incl. Strike/fast packs in a nice commemorative box or something. Quote
Golden Arms Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 I think its pretty obvious why they choose the VF-1 and the 19 as the anniv valks. The VF-1 series because it is the most iconic, has been around for 25 yrs. The Yf-19 because of all the recent valks this will be its first alternate scheme(maximize the molds), and with the exception of the soon to be released Ivanov, its the newest valkyrie that Yamato has.

1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Looks ok to me. But for some reason I think a black yf-21/vf-22 is more fitting than a black 19. It's because of the head being stuck inside a hood in battroid mode so its like it is trying to hide. Quote
Vermillion21 Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 A Minmay Guard would convince me to buy another 1/48 in a second. Me three! Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 (edited) It IS iconic, but for the wrong things. All bad flawed designs aside, Shin's 0A is the most iconic. Roy wastes one and almost his '2nd' VF-0S in 2 ova episodes. lol. So Shin's VF-0 gets the thumbs up for mine. We will see Shin's VF-0A with fancy energy feathers in another OVA one day... you'll see! I rate the VF-0 way up there with iconicism lol (sp?) As for VF-1's the 1D is very iconic. But sadly is too hard to invent for our Yamato buddies! Series? VF-1S roy, DYRL? ? Hik's 1S by far. Bring on the revised 1/60 perfect transformation VF-1s already... Edited August 24, 2007 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote
Kicker773 Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 I'm assuming there was no release date yet on the Blk YF19 nor was there a pre order anywhere.. however someone on evilbay is already taking preorders Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 wow already? lol... i guess there isn't much time then. No mention of the release date, nothing? Quote
Knight26 Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 I would love to get that black YF-19, but want fast packs and fold booster to go with it, dang, too bad they aren't selling those seperately, or are they? Quote
rowlund Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 I would love to get that black YF-19, but want fast packs and fold booster to go with it, dang, too bad they aren't selling those seperately, or are they? If I 'm not mistaken, I believe that they also sell the yf-19 fast pack and fold booster separately. I too, also am thinking of getting the black yf-19. I think the black color goes quite well with it. Quote
Sumdumgai Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 I thought the flier had the release date for December... Quote
eugimon Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 yeah, the flier has december of this year as a release date. Quote
Scream Man Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 i was thinking of that black 19 with the FPs and Fold. FP's i think u would need to repaint, but the fold would look awesome... Quote
Guest sh002 Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 hmm just noticed no special emblem or something on the vf-1s heatshield. a minmei insignia or 25th or something would be cool there. Quote
Auto Pilot Off Posted August 25, 2007 Posted August 25, 2007 Vf-1 again.... sigh.. could have done the bad guys or the destroids a favour... heheheh Quote
