guys, was roy focker piloting a vf-1s

when he died? did roy actually flew

one with fp's? what was hikaru flying

during that time? vf-1a?

sorry for the question guys? am

thinking of getting the vf's that

both were flying at that time.

thanks!

He was flying the 1S in the DRYL movie when he died, and in the T.V. series, he was in battle and got his plane shot up pretty good and died a while later after landing from blood loss.

Roy flew with FP's in the movie, but never in the T.V. series. Hikaru flew Roy's 1S in the T.V. series after he died and later flew it with FP's.

In the movie, Hikaru was flying a 1A at the time and in the T.V. series he was flying the white 1J when Roy died.

Hey cut that out Kyp! Some of us guys are still hoping for some 1/48 exclusiveness! But I can see where you might imagine having these in the new scale and sculpt. Hope it's just wishfull thinking.

:D

OO

I'm sorry to say, but with the way Yamato is pumping these bad boys out and with their history for milking molds, you might be in for a rude awakening.

I have the same concern as geepogi's :) I have a DVD of the episodes, but I didn't look at the valks closely the last time I watched them. Please see if I have this right:

SDF TV:

Roy:

VF-1S all the way without FPs

Hikaru:

1D (Civilian, 1st ep)

1J (CF color)

1J without FP (Team leader)

- with GBP for one episode against a Zentraedi recon team

1S without FP (Roy's VF after his death)

1S with FP

Max:

1A

1D (during the wedding Virgin Road ep)

1J with Super (predominantly blue)

Kaki:

1A (brown color sheme, same color pattern as Max's)

Miria:

Q-Rau (I'm still hoping for a retool/redeco of the 1/60 release)

1J with Super (predominantly red)

DYRL:

Roy:

1S with Strike

Hikaru:

1A with Super

VT-1 Super Ostrich

1S with Strike (different fighter and color scheme than Roy's)

Max:

1A

1S without Strike

Q-Rau (blue)

Kaki:

1A

Miria:

Q-Rau (red)

So, If you want to have separate groups, you'll need 3 Roy Focker VF-1's

VF-1S without FP (Roy as Pilot)

VF-1S with TV Super (Hikky as Pilot)

VF-1S with Strike (Roy DYRL as Pilot)

I only saw two things on your list that were inaccurate Pochimus

Hikaru never flew a 1A in the TV series IIRC. He did have a Cannon Fodder colored 1J during his bootcamp phase.

And for DYRL, Max flew a 1S, not a 1J when he became Skull Leader after Roy Died.

Actually, if I remember right, VF-1 wise in DRYL Max only flew a 1A and then a 1S while Hikaru and Roy were in enemy hands.

*Edit*

You're right Chow, Hikaru also never flew a 1A in the T.V. series.

yay! thanks guys,

I didn't realize he didn't have a 1A in the TV series. Cool :) I hope Yamato comes out with a 1J CF but that's highly unlikely

Yup I meant a 1S for Max hehe typo :(

I've edited the post to benefit us newbies in Macross lore :D

Is there a screencap of Max flying a strike 1S from DYRL? I only remember it without FP.

Good catch Fatalist. Yes, Max's VF-1S did not have the Strike Packs.

updated my other post with the correction

This toy is so friggin' sturdy that I might just have to transform it again tonight. I've never transformed a Yamato Valk more than once a year.

I wonder which will be toy of the year, the YF-21 or the VF-1 v2.0? :huh:

Posted

Now that you've mentioned it.

Does Macrossworld have a Toy of the Year contest?

I have a feeling it'll be between the YF-21, VF-1 v2.0, and VF-25, and Destroid Tomahawk (so far).

Are there any toys by other companies that could be competing for the 'Toy o/t Year' title?

They are really awesome. I only got one but want to get the rest.

Yep, they rock! (got a box set of 4 and swapped donatello with upgrade donatello with the swappable ninja climbing aid hands). I gave the climbing aids to Raph. Badass!

Alright, I got Hikaru's VF-1A and VF-1J preordered....I think I'll hold on to the J's fast packs and buy another A in the near future and get someone to customize it to my personal color preference.

my personal color preference.

And what would this be? :huh:

Just out of curiosity, does the old 1/60 Armored Parts work with the 1/60 VF-1 version 2? Has anyone tried it?

It was posted in another thread....but the answer is....you would have to mod your old 1/60 in order for the clips on the FPs to fit into the backpack. Unless you are talking about the GBP then your answer is No....the Armor is slightly to small for the v.2.

I have never preordered anything but I just did on the VF-1A with FP's. I'm so excited :)

Just pre-ordered the VF-1J w/ FP and Roy's VF-1S without FP from Lost and Found. My poor poor wallet.

pre-ordered my Tomahawk and 1A FP from Toy-wave, as well as grabbing the non-fp version of the 1S! Can't wait!

Guess what?! Yamato has a new milkcow!

If they can include the Hikky 1J with Supers they could be nice to us and give the Max 1S strike as well...

It's time like these that I'm glad I don't have a woman. Got a lot more spare cash and more peace and quiet. :p

i have a woman. Im just nuts. She's pretty understanding though, which is cool. Macross stuff i get away with more coz she thinks its 'classy.' And i think i could keep buying Saint Seiya's indefinitely ("Oooooo, they're so shiney!"). Gundam she's ok with. Everything else is 50/50 depending on the toy. Except Transformers. She HATES Transformers.

Well....I was just about to take a pic and vid of how to make it so where you connect the swingbar in battroid mode is flush but I cannot for all my rechargeable batteries for my digital camera have crapped out on me :angry: . Some are charging right now...but they are old so I think they may not even last that long anymore. I need to get new ones but why should I...they're rechargable....they should never die. Pieces of crap. :angry:

I guess it's pretty easy to explain though now that I think about it. While TFing your guy into Battroid you need to get the swing bar in there only part of the way while simutaniously moving the little cover over it and pushing the hinge part of the swing bar down into the groove on the cover. Once the hinge part is part way into the groove then you can move the swing bar the rest of the way into the nose cone while pressing the cover down. Be careful though not to apply to much pressure. It is quite a process but the results are WONDERFUL!!! Good luck.
