SV-51 CF!!!

[Priss!]

Guys, i was looking at yamatos's website and I found this Beauty

[Ignacio Ocamica]

What a great scheme!!!!

It's not what I expected the CF to be but I sure like it

[Lonewolf]

Humm... I thought it would be of a darker tone...

[Lonely Soldier Boy]

Looks like the VF-1 Cannon Fodder scheme. Not very impressive IMO. Now, I don't have the official colored lineart around but I do remember it to be very different.

wow, it didn't take them long to milk the mold

[ghostryder]

Not crazy about that 1/48 VF-1 fleshy CF color. Shouldn't it be more dark desert sandy/bronze?

[Knightdramon]

Cool enough, but the mould isn't strong enough to justify a third purchase from me. I do like the colours though.

[eugimon]

ew... nudie sv-51 does not look good at all.

[Dante74]

Thank god, I don't like it. That way I'll save myself some money for once.

[Lonely Soldier Boy]

Somebody put some pants on that Valk!

[Ignacio Ocamica]

It's probably Kawamori's retcon interpretation

Gerwalk...

[David Hingtgen]

Yeah, it looked distinctly bronze/gold to me in the animation---not plain "tan".

[eugimon]

Somebody put some pants on that Valk!

Thank GOD the Vf-1 CF didn't get the nudie color, I would have been too embarrassed to pose it in battroid mode...

[Mr March]

Looks a little different than the color shceme I used for the M3. The manipulators and "ankles" are light instead of black. I might have to correct that.

[Twoducks]

I kinda like it (I'm regret selling my 1/48 CF ) but would prefer the scheme Mr March has posted. A little white here and there would be nice.

And again we have nonblack joints like in the Nora... I'm worried now that we might not get that fixed for Nora.

[Grand Admiral]

I kinda like it but I'm holding out for a Dobber SV-51.

[Jeremy007]

im glad im not the only one who doesnt like it.

[Zinjo]

wow, it didn't take them long to milk the mold

Wouldn't you?

That mold probably cost them tens of thousands of dollars to produce...

Plug in some new styrene colored pellets and bingo a new SV-51 version...

[eugimon]

I would have preferred Mr. March's take as well. As it is, this is a sure pass for me. I'll wait for the Dobber scheme.

[Sumdumgai]

Only SV-51 I'll get is a Dobber's scheme. This CF is far too light brown. It looks like it's trying to pass itself as a YF-19 in color.

[Nani?!]

WOW!

That looks magnificently retarded.

They use the same crappy nudist default tan color for all their cfs and the knees, ankles, face, hands, etc are all still not colored black.

Seriously they need to crucify the guy who decides the colors at yamato.

[Ghostkiller]

This sheme is pretty bad CF VF-1 rocks but that s--ks

thinking a lot about a possible repaint of my 2nd Sv-51 with a russian camo

Was thinking about a complete unsrewing process on it

At first thought It was not possible but it looks like it is possible now after playing with it a lot

But I am not confident enough at the moment

possible sheme that would be fantastic IMO

[charger69]

Looks like a flying M1A1 to me

(Not a bad scheme IMO)

I'm afraid I will end up with 4 SV-51's (Ivanov, Nora, CF, Dobber)

[konimon]

I was hoping for grey low-vis or Dobber scheme. So far, Ivanov scheme is my favourite.

So this one is SV-51 alpha? I see the starboard gun though...

Im not a fan of this colour scheme. But surely the CF colur scheme is a U.N Spacy thing and not the Anti U.N`s idea.

[TheLoneWolf]

If it was more bronze than tan it'd look a lot better. Was this color also hand-picked by Kawamori? Either way I'll definitely pass on this one.

[ruskiiVFaussie]

this is bulls^t, SO DAMN SICK OF THIS NON-CANON AND TRYING TO MAKE OUT CANON CRAP!

I had hopes for the CF-51, but they can shove this... I bet they don't include the Fuel bomb.

Ghostkiller, that's what I thought so I painted my hasegawa that way. This is the one (Dobber) that everyone is refering to if you didn't know. I also have been thinking about painting my Yamoto like my Hasegawa but I only have 1 and really can't afford another one yet either. I really hope Yamato comes through and makes my SV-51 so I can just buy one instead of risking screwing up a very expensive toy!!

[Jeremy007]

i cannot get over how good that paint job looks on that toy.

fantastic.

[Fai]

It's probably Kawamori's retcon interpretation

Gerwalk...

It looks like a hairless chicken or something to me,

[Nani?!]

It looks like a hairless chicken or something to me,

ROFL!

Nice description.

[ruskiiVFaussie]

Featherless....

[do not disturb]

so uninteresting and so unoriginal, my left nut has more flavor...

i've lost a great deal of interest in macross toys lately.

the only thing that would get me excited at this point would be destroids or a legitmate sized SDF-1.

[ruskiiVFaussie]

Or a VF-25. :P :P :P :P

[do not disturb]

Or a VF-25. :P :P :P :P

if they released just one version, then yes.

repaints is whats killing this hobby for me. repaints of a timeless valk like the VF-1 is cool but these others(mac+/0 valks)don't deserve a repaint IMO.
