Hey!!! They've made the modifications... all the black areas look right! I'm a happy panda :D

Hell yeah! My finger is off the preorder cancel button.

Sooo, how's the gold? Is it bright or does it get muddy when you have little light?

Hmmm...they more or less got the black parts covered...but the face plate is silver?

0.o

And something tells me the right "armpit hinge" stil isn't fixed based on that picture.

>_<

OK, so where can I buy it and get it fairly quickly? A lot of the "normal" places don't seem to have it/list it. I assume HLJ is already sold out etc, or that I'll be on the 3rd shipment etc if I order now.

Suggestions?

::edit:: found it a few more places after searching harder:: Anyone know when LAFtoys is getting theirs in? Haven't bought from them yet, but since they're offering both Nora and MP-05 orders, it'd make it convenient.

I'm buying it BECAUSE it's magenta. I want all my valks to look different. 1 "greyish white" one (Roy) is enough. My others are tan (YF-19), red (Milia) and soon-to-be blue (YF-21). And then a deep grey VF-11.

i guess if you're going to pick one, you might as well go with the one that stands out the most.

i plan on picking up the ivanov only, i feel this valk designs doesn't deserve multiple purchases.

the VF-1 is classic, the SV-51...not so much.

yeah it is all a matter of opinion. For me, the Nora SV-51 is the valk that I have wanted more than any other one (except the VF-1D maybe) and I am very happy that it was made and that I am on the preorder.

Anyone know if there's an online retailer offering BOTH SV-51's in a package deal?

Just took my SV-51 Nora out of the box. Haven't transformed it yet, but I'm happy to report two things: -

  1. The Nora pilot is an all new sculpt, not just a repainted Ivanov. And yes for those that are wondering, she does have breasts!
  2. Yamato have improved the fit of the underwing weapons and the missiles and compsite micromissile pods/fuel tanks now attach rock solidly.

Great! Now that I know that there's fixes on the 51, I can start saving for my second release Ivanov :)

Transformed it to Battroid mode last night. The various wing hinges on mine are definitely tighter than on the Ivanov and the wings don't flop backwards in Battroid mode like they do on my Ivanov.

Loving the tightness of the missile attachments as well. On my Ivanov, the missiles fall off at the slightest and I mean slightest touch, but on Nora they stay on really well.

Yo graham, I think it was mentioned in the past that Nora's Booster was supposed to be white instead of gray like Ivanov's.

Did Yamato do a white Booster or Nora or are they the same as Ivanov"s?

I await Swoosh's AWESOME, MOUTH WATERING photos that'll make me one jealous Macrossworlder.
