miriya Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 "Thanks Miriya!!! you have officially made my day." Well that makes my day. "too bad they didn't colour up Minmay and Hik." True. True. "Open up your own thread and dedicate it to all your scans! " I probably will at some point. Just no time right now.
atreyu2112 Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 All right... that's it! I'm caving in. These new 1/60 v2.0's... they're all gonna be MINE dude!!!!! Finally ordered / pre-ordered all 3!
ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 I reckon i'll get two. Probably the only one i'll get doubles of.
UN Spacy Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 So. That's an earlier version from the one that as at Wonderfest?
Impreszive Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 definitely want this one. When is the pre-order up?
ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Unless all they did was paint Minmay and Hikaru..
balusi Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 hello to all fans of this masterpiece called Macross. I have seen few photographs of VF-1D 1 / 60 I hope will be much better ke the previous one. someone you know if there is any conversion to VF-1D, EV-1 or VT-1 for 1 / 48 Yamato if so please where can I buy
ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 (edited) No conversion kits yet, in the future, yes. Edited August 19, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie
miriya Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 So. That's an earlier version from the one that as at Wonderfest? pretty sure, yes.
m0n5t3r Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 (edited) looks great... thanks for the pics... will definitely get at least 2 of these... Edited August 19, 2008 by m0n5t3r
Javabean Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Hurray again! Will definately get it...perhaps 2 pieces. Life is good! Any mention of release date fm the magazine?
Kyp Durron Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Hurray again! Will definately get it...perhaps 2 pieces. Life is good! Any mention of release date fm the magazine? The article covering the 1D at HLJ.com said that it will be out sometime next year, so we have a damn good while to wait/save up for it. -Kyp
MacrossMan Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 From Yamato Mag... ] Oh my, this is just plain wrong! OO
UN Spacy Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 If that's just plain wrong then I don't wanna be right.
dizman Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Wow it looks good, REALLY good! First new 1/60 I've had the urge to buy, maybe if this does well Yamato will make a TV VF-1S (I can dream can't I?).
miriya Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Oh my, this is just plain wrong! OO Dont worry macrossman, your 1/48 VF-1D is still the bomb and will continue to be the bomb even well after the 1/60 is rocking the shelf right next to your 1/48. If that's just plain wrong then I don't wanna be right. True that! ^^ Thanks for the scans, Miriya! It is really my pleasure. I have been Jonesing for a good VF-1D toy since 1985 so to know that other people appreciate it like I do and can share in the joy, brings me joy. The scotch brings me joy too. I am celebrating.
ron5864 Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Model VF-1D, number VT102. Hikaru's first flight in a variable fighter was in this valkyrie. Misa saved Hikaru's life for the first time when she told him about the "B" control panel lever in this valkyrie. Hikaru saved Minmei for the first time in this valkyrie. And Hikaru took down the first battlepod in his first combat role in this valkyrie. Of course, I am going to get this VF-1D!!!!
eriku Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 All these years of waiting....this new 1D almost brings a tear to the eye!
balusi Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 to see these images from the magazine on the Yamato vf-1D convinced me to buy the Valkyrie 1 / 60
danth Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 I think the cream color should be a bit darker. Anyone else? I'm still disappointed about the canopy being the same length as the regular VF-1. It makes the VF-1D a lot less special.
diabloM Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 ya...agree with danth... but...still will get 1~! the battroid is too good looking...
misterryno Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 From Yamato Mag... OOOOOhhhhhhh my my my....THANK YOU brother!!!

MacrossMan Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 If that's just plain wrong then I don't wanna be right. You know there's an old song out there titled "If Loving You Is Wrong, I Don't Wanna Be Right"... I guess I just don't wanna be right in this case cause this thing is friggin suh-weet!!!!!!!!!!! OO
Renato Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 The colour I don't mind, but I agree with danth on the canopy issue. Seriously, if they're not changing the canopy length at all, it's not really a 1D, and why, then, was it so impossible to do it in 1/48? This is what I was expecting from Yamato: Apart from that I like it, so I will very likely buy it. It will be my first 1/60 v2... and hopefully the VE-1 will be my second. Dunno yet, though.
ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 (edited) No WAY could a heatshield be properly/completely consealed and flop over that big arse canopy. Edited August 21, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie
