mickayesou Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 (edited) new toy line of bandai " robot spirit " , it's a action figure not transformable , 12 cm , abs/pvc figures with pom joints no release date Edited August 5, 2008 by mickayesou
CF18 Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 So a new line to replace the near-dead MSiA line, to compete with other low-mid price robot toy lines: Revoltech, HCM-Pro and GNU-Dou. Like MSiA and Gundam Fix these are non-scale, but have box style similar to Revoltech. The new mix of material is interesting: That should reduce the part warping so prevalent in MSiA and Fix. I also doubt the VF-25 can transform.
Major Focker Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 what's that other mech with the bunny slippers?
CF18 Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 what's that other mech with the bunny slippers? Nirvash typeZERO, designed by Shoji Kawamori.
pochimus prime Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 Nirvash typeZERO, designed by Shoji Kawamori. from what anime is that?
Dante74 Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 (edited) from what anime is that? Eureka Seven. Go watch it. Great anime. BTW. Love the mr. Bean avatar, but maybe you should consider using some pics of Rowans' daughter Gemma Atkinson. Much prettier than her father. Edited August 5, 2008 by Dante74

Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 Okay so we have seen glimpses of Bandai's Tamashii robot line, now where the hell are the pics of the DX and 1/100 VF-25s?
Black Valkyrie Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 I bet the 1/100 FIX type figures with may be little die-cast parts.
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 I bet the 1/100 FIX type figures with may be little die-cast parts. I hope they aren't FIX though, I don't like PVC that much, and FIX are predominantly PVC. What I truly hope for, is for the 1/100 line to be perfect transformation. It would be nice to have a perfect transformation line for a good price. The DX has a good price as is, just imagine how affordable the 1/100 line would be. If the 1/100 line is perfect transformation and has wider releases, I would buy my favorites in the DX line, and build a bigger 1/100 collection. For example I don't like Michel or Luca that much, so I wouldn't buy DX versions of their valkyries, but I would buy their's in 1/100.
Kyp Durron Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 So are they going to be actually doing the 1/100 line? -Kyp
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 So are they going to be actually doing the 1/100 line? -Kyp I think so, they finally showed a prototype last month I believe, at a show.

I believe it's already been advertised as not being perfect transformation. Instead it was advertised as "simple transformation". Dunno what that means in the end, but I would imagine a few parts swapping. I agree with you on the use of PVC. But I can deal with it as long as it's not used in the wings or tailfins. I wish Yamato would consider a lineup of 1/100 scale Valks (at this scale I'd accept non-transforming models).
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 I wish Yamato would consider a lineup of 1/100 scale Valks (at this scale I'd accept non-transforming models). They did tinker with the idea, there was a 1/100 VF-0S planned and shown in magazines, but it never made it to production, parts swapping was extensive. I believe it's already been advertised as not being perfect transformation. Instead it was advertised as "simple transformation". Dunno what that means in the end, but I would imagine a few parts swapping. I am hoping for at least a 1/55 derived transformation method...with no parts removal. If there is parts swapping I hope that its minimal, and that the pieces can be stored on or in the toy somehow.
badboy00z Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 (edited) Yeah, the last thing we want are droopy wings. When's the next big hobby show? A 1/55 is bigger than a 1/60 so there should be no problem making it a PT. Edited August 12, 2008 by badboy00z
biggooftoybox Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 So I've read all 20+ apges of this thread since I stopped reading. Talk about going off topic. but before i do. the question is Is there or not going to be a 1/100 toy line for Macross Frontier? I know there is the 1/72 model kit line with transformation 1/60 perfect transformation DX w/ diecast line

Those 20 or so pages must have blurred together nicely as you were reading all that.
Sumdumgai Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 Parts-swapping = I don't buy. I don't need pieces to keep track of in order to transform.

A 1/55 is bigger than a 1/60 so there should be no problem making it a PT. I meant transformation influenced by the 1/55, for the 1/100 toy. the question is Is there or not going to be a 1/100 toy line for Macross Frontier? Yes
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 Parts-swapping = I don't buy. I don't need pieces to keep track of in order to transform. Agreed. The charm of a small scale line of transformable toys is its playability, but swapping parts is not fun at all.
Black Valkyrie Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 I bet they are too busy with the 1/60 DX VF-25 and Robot Spirit VF-25, may be then they produce the 1/100 line. Are you all gonna get the 1/60 DX ?

Are you all gonna get the 1/60 DX ? I'll be sure to get one I'm a big fan of MF, which in my opinion is way better than Macross 7. Alto's > than that douchebag Basara

Are you all gonna get the 1/60 DX ? What are you talking about man? The Tamashii Spirit VF-25 was nowhere near completion, and was in a very rough stage, a far cry from the 1/100 that was shown last month. I think its the other way around, I think the Tamashii Spirit version is taking the back burner while Bandai focuses their efforts on making the DX and 1/100 first.
Black Valkyrie Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 I'm a big fan of MF, which in my opinion is way better than Macross 7. Alto's > than that douchebag Basara You said it . Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 regarding your quote for The Tamashii Spirit VF-25 I think they`ll be out before the 1/100 line cuz they are easy to produce and non-transfomable.

I doubt that man, look at the prototypes, the 1/100 was much, much closer to completion than the Spirit.

eugimon Posted August 14, 2008 Posted August 14, 2008 so, is this the final final final? Or is it still a mock up claiming to be the final? I still don't see the major improvements to the proportions I was promised.
QuinJester Posted August 14, 2008 Posted August 14, 2008 so, is this the final final final? Or is it still a mock up claiming to be the final? I still don't see the major improvements to the proportions I was promised. It's the model kit, not the DX toy.
Kyp Durron Posted August 14, 2008 Posted August 14, 2008 Considering that's the 1/72 model and not the DX, I'm not worried. -Kyp
eugimon Posted August 14, 2008 Posted August 14, 2008 It's the model kit, not the DX toy. well damnit, it shouldn't be posted in the toy section then! makes me sad though, chest too wide (because of the shoulder attachment) and the hip placement looks wrong.
