misterryno Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Dude! They are doing a MILIA? NICE!!! I did not read the whole thread just looked at the pic. Definitely excited. Will be doing a Fraulein Asuka x Revoltech Milia kitbash FOR SURE!!!! Also excited for the mac+ figs! But I have to say, most excited about the regults! * There will be both MAX and MIRIYA VF-IJ Revoltech I still can't believe that you are most excited about the regults I really would like to see an Asuka x Milia kitbash as well.

CF18 Posted February 22, 2008 Author Posted February 22, 2008 Revoltech using come with a bunch of accessary. It will be great if the Regult come with parts for all 4 versions. Quote
Vermillion21 Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 I am VERY excited about this!!!! REGULT ARMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ditto!! Quote
isamu_dyson Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 (edited) Don't know where this rumour came from, but it is completely false. Graham This "rumor" is a consequence of what i've been told by some who works at organic. maybe they succeed into finding a deal with toynami. Anyway i'm very happy to see the new macross revotech figures comes true Edited February 22, 2008 by isamu_dyson Quote
Graham Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 I knew that the Revoltech YF-19 and YF-21 were in development long before that rumor broke (I heard about them several months ago (although the Regult and M&M are news to me), which is why that rumor just didn't make sense to me. When the primary market for all Revoltechs is Japan, it seems odd to say that they will drop Macross, especially for toys that are so cheap to design and produce. Like most Japanese toy companies, does Kaiyodo even care about the Japanese toy market? Graham Quote
the_foul_fowl Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Wow, from that pic, I wonder if the regult will actually be in-scale with the vf-1j. Perhaps that's why the vfs are smaller than standard revys, so that an in-scale regult could be feasible? Quote

mechaninac Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 (edited) Has anyone determined what is the approximate scale of the Revoltech VF-1s? I'm wondering if the Regults will truly be in "scale" with their initial Macross offerings, or just of comparable size, and if the available 1/100 stuff (VB-6, Toynami Veritechs, VF-2SS model, etc.) will be within a reasonable scale range of the Revoltech enemy Mecha. Another thing to ponder is, since Kaiyodo is expanding their Macross line with mecha other than VFs, how long before we see Revoltech Destroids? Edited February 22, 2008 by mechaninac Quote
Black Valkyrie Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Not surprised, it was expected sooner or later. As for the Regult thats really a welcome to the Macross toy line. Quote
Twoducks Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Looks awesome Found in Toysdaily forum Quote
TheLoneWolf Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Has anyone determined what is the approximate scale of the Revoltech VF-1s? I'd say it's approximately got a 1/100 body with 1/88 arms & legs. My numbers probably aren't accurate since I don't have one with me at the moment, but the limbs look out of proportion when compared to the body. I'm wondering if the Regults will truly be in "scale" with their initial Macross offerings The Regults will probably be bigger than Kaiyodo's initial VF-1's (as they should be), but I don't think they'll be perfectly matched up to scale since the VF-1 itself isn't set to any scale.

1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 (edited) Looks good. I love the chicken walking mecha. Maybe we'll see the destroids? Someone said they are unlikely to branch out to other macross mecha due to unpopularity compared to the VFs. Nice one! My request is for them to do the green, purple and red qrau. Edited February 22, 2008 by 1/1 LowViz Lurker Quote
nightmareB4macross Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Nice, but honestly a waste of money. If Yamato continues going with the 1/60 scale, after the destroids, next would have to be enemy mecha. Even in 1/60 a Regult would be large, but it would be pretty much the same amount of plastc (or less) as as the 1/60 Q-Rau. Not knocking you guys. I'm just saying, too each his own. Quote
sidearmsalpha Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 We finally get some enemy mecha and we got people complaining?! Oh well... I can't wait for this. I also hope the Regult comes with the different attachments. These are perfect for army building. Quote
1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 (edited) The advantage of smaller toys though is that you can "collect em all" like pokemon. Bigger toys will have better detail, but what are the chance these companies will take a risk on non-valk mecha? It's too risky if nobody buys it which is why I think they want to make smaller cheaper toys first. Profits from that can be used as their way to gauge interest into a more detailed toy. Glaug, regult, even monster can be easily collected at smaller scales without to much risk of them getting cancelled due to not enough people able to afford it or have enough space to display the bigger stuff. (maybe that's why the wave sdf-1 is so small?) Personally I want to see some valks from macross II for this reason. Stuff that you know won't get made into a risky large toy just because nobody likes the show it came from. Edited February 23, 2008 by 1/1 LowViz Lurker Quote
UN Spacy Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 (edited) Dozens of NEW photos of the YF-19, YF-21, Regult, as well as the Max and Miria VF-1J's at Kaiyodo's Wonderfest showcase here. http://www.ota-suke.jp/event/review/11294 (SNWS) Edited February 24, 2008 by UN Spacy Quote
CF18 Posted February 24, 2008 Author Posted February 24, 2008 (edited) Mirroring some of the better pics here. More to come. The #7 shows the scale - looking good here. Edited February 24, 2008 by CF18 Quote
roboto Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 domu and pinoy78 just posted this info and pictures on Robot Japan. continued... Quote
roboto Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Not a Macross item (still cool anyway), but check out the background. Quote
miriya Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THE REGULTS!!!!!! It is a dream come true! When are they going to be released? When is Milia going to be released? I can hardly contain myslef! Thanks for the pics! So sweet that they come with the missile parts. Hopefully they will also do a scout! I love the sculpt on the regult and think it is second best after Captain America's John Moscato resin Masterpieces. Happy happy joy joy!!! Quote
Mr March Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 (edited) *stands in shock for a moment* Wow, they actually put the Reguld in scale. VERY impressive! I'll be buying one of these. And YF-19 and YF-21 Revoltechs! YAH-F'ING-HOO! Articulation baby, THAT'S what I want! At last, a YF-19 action figure that can do the flying kick Edited February 24, 2008 by Mr March Quote
miriya Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 woah!!! Sh!t Fire!!! I just realized that those unpainted ones are YF-19 and YF-21!!!! Those look great too!!!! I am about to explode with joy!!!! Quote
miriya Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 So far I like the Yamato GNU YF-21 better than this Revoltech version BUT I think that the Revoltech YF-19 has a much better look and sculpt than the Yamato GNU YF-19. Anyway, I am sure I will have one of each of both. Quote
Mr March Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Hahaha, I just noticed the silly pin-point barrier disk on the YF-19's hand Kinda silly, but I don't care. I really like how they put the wings for the YF-19 and YF-21 on joints for a full range of motion. Very sexah! Quote
PsYcHoDyNaMiX Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 (edited) Woah... The Revos for the 19, 21 and even the Regult are hot. ***EDIT*** I think they put a pin point barrier on the 21's tailfin on it's forearm as well for that battle scene. Edited February 24, 2008 by PsYcHoDyNaMiX Quote
promethuem5 Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Well... uh... er.... guess I won't need the Yamato 19 and 21 PVC figs... because the RTs look EFFIN INCREDIBLE! Quote
dafunguy Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Wow, the Revoltech line is crazy! They're pumping out all kinds of figures .. left and right. This company does things right ... large selection and no delays. Once they show a prototype ... BAM, it's out on sale in a few months. They don't get stuck in production limbo forever (re: toynami)! Bring it. Quote
roboto Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 (edited) This isn't a Revoltech, but it should get Macross World members excited. Thanks to pinoy78 at RJ! (Oops! This has already been posted on another thread. Sorry... Anyway, how do I deleted this? Edited February 24, 2008 by roboto Quote
miriya Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Since Revoltech is doing the M&Ms I may pass on the Toynami M&M super sets or just get one milia one. Quote
CF18 Posted February 24, 2008 Author Posted February 24, 2008 Clean pics. Look carefully - fast packs with YF-19 and YF-21! Fast packs for YF-19 have different colour then those in Yamato 1:60, so which colour is correct? Quote
Mr March Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Great pictures! Damn, these babies look amazing. The FAST Packs for the YF-19 should look olive or grey with a hint of green. From the pictures, the leg FAST packs look beige like the YF-19 itself and the shoulder tanks look white. But these are just display pieces and I'm certain Revoltech will correct the colors for mass production. All their other Macross toys have used correct colors, so these should be fine. Damn, that Reguld looks perfect. I am sooooo getting one of these Quote
1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 (edited) Qrau next FFS. And then the vf-11 + rogue zentradi power armour so they an both fight each other. Edited February 25, 2008 by 1/1 LowViz Lurker Quote
misterryno Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 OH BABY OH BABY!!! Super M&M's!!! MARVELOUS...BRAVO....BRAVO!!! Quote
