danth Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 (Confused) I don't know what that means. Do you remember George Costanza? Sometimes it means "I don't accept your apologies," and sometimes it means "No need to apologize." I was using the latter meaning. I hope for Mylene's valk, VF-3000, VF-5000, and VF-14.Yes to all! But a MAXL would be especially boobalicious. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 If I could have only one valk made from this line, it'd be Mylene's. VF-4 is good, but it's not a "valk with boobs". And pink. Quote
lechuck Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 (edited) And if I could have exactly four valks expelled from this line, then it would be the fire bomber squad. do you REALLY need another VF-1? I do, if I'm collecting 1/100 valks. I'm saddened to see that the VF-19 ranks so low with everybody, come on VF-19S Blazer!!! And to add misery it's sharing the same amount of votes with the boring YF-19... Edited September 4, 2008 by lechuck Quote

I don't get why so many Macross fans don't love the MAXL. Have you ever heard someone say "This thing is so cool...the only way it could be cooler is if it had tits"? Well HELLO! Quote
cyde01 Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 waht!!? no vf-17!!? seriously what will it take a company to make a decent looking diamond force vf-17!!? Quote
Penguin Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 Even though I'm a huge fan of the VF-4, I had to vote for the VF-171. I've got resin kits for the VF-4, but nothin' at all for the VF-171 yet. Granted, I'd be most happy with a 1/72 model kit to go with the rest of my fleet, but I'll "settle" for a 1/100 toy in the meantime. Quote
misterryno Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 do you REALLY need another VF-1? no....it's just my favorite. I guess I misunderstood the purpose of this poll until recently. If it is going the way I think then I guess I would change my vote to a VF-4 as well. It's aight....but not uber cool. Quote
protostar8 Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 Easy, VF-4. After that, I hope for Mylene's valk, VF-3000, VF-5000, and VF-14. I don't need smaller versions of stuff that's already available---the whole point of the line (IMHO) should be to make valks that aren't popular enough to justify the development of 1/60 ones. I completely disagree wtih you. The line should make AFFORDABLE valks the priority. I'd like to see some more obscure stuff, but I can't justify dropping $150+ on a single toy, but $150 on 3 (especially if they have armor/stands/etc) I'd be much more inclined to do. Quote
sharky Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 (edited) waht!!? no vf-17!!? seriously what will it take a company to make a decent looking diamond force vf-17!!? Like you, I really wanted something cool of the original VF-17 Nightmare from M7. from the Macross Compendium: [since the VF-17 Nightmare proved difficult to mass-manufacture, the VF-171 has been comparatively downgraded. However, it also received various improvements and modifications to extend the unit's service use including improved aerodynamic characteristics, and enhanced maneuverability. Its low cost, ease of piloting, and variety of optional equipment have made it highly versatile and cost-effective.] It's interesting that the Macross Compendium would put that because it also states that the VF-17A and the VF17D are mass production type VF-17 Valkyries. I do prefer the more blunt look of the VF-17. It looks more stealthy IMO. But, just like the VF-4 not being a larger scale, I'll take what I can get. Even if it's not exactly the VF-17s. vs Edited September 4, 2008 by sharky Quote
eriku Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 I would much prefer a VF-17 to the 171, but the 171 is probably the closest I'll get for the time being. Quote
badboy00z Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 I'll be getting the VF-19. Hope it's the S Blazer one though. I might get the VF-27 if they don't make it in 1/60. Quote

But, just like the VF-4 not being a larger scale, I'll take what I can get.

carzooyah Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 A non shoulder breaking smaller VF-0 would be very welcomed in my collection Quote
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 So when did the VF-2ss was mentioned? I thought it was listed and it's the one I want the most, but now I'd like to know if it's gonna be released at all. Anybody? Quote
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 So when did the VF-2ss was mentioned? I thought it was listed and it's the one I want the most, but now I'd like to know if it's gonna be released at all. Anybody? I actually don't think it was ever listed, the main hint was the Macross II title listed on the bottom of the ad, amongst the other Macross titles such as Zero, SDF Macross, Macross 7, and Plus. Since the 2SS has a niche following, is the most popular valk from II, and II is listed, I think if any valk comes from that movie, it'll be the 2SS, which can be released with red, yellow, and blue trim. I remember Nexx specifically having a different gun. I for one would want the red mecha he fought(man its been so long since I've watched it), the Metal Siren, and VF-2JA(MAN that thing doesn't get any love, and its an awesome design!). I think this line will be awesome if the obscure valks make it into the lineup, its good for us since it won't break the wallet. Potentially more articulate than a Revoltech valkyrie, and with a sculpt better than perfect transformation valk toys, but not as good as model kits, we could have a good winner here. It can't do what a model does best(look the more accurate/best), but it can pull off what most perfect transformation valks can't(look accurate, and be more articulated). Sure technology is improving and advancing some might say at an alarming rate, but as it stands it seems that designing a perfect transformation toy for any company designing a valk toy is hard enough as it is.

ruskiiVFaussie Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Voted VF-4, i have everything else. Of course if only Yamato would say they were making a 1/60 or 1/48 VF-4, i'd not even worry about the 1/100. Quote
sharky Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 thanks for the comparo pics. imo the pic of the vf-17 looks like a falcon in mid dive. the pic of the vf-171 looks like a penguin. Someone with some skills should create a squadron logo of a tough looking penguin. Quote
Necron_99 Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 VF-4, followed by the VF-171 Until we hear about a VF-2SS Quote
UN Spacy Posted September 8, 2008 Author Posted September 8, 2008 So when did the VF-2ss was mentioned? I thought it was listed and it's the one I want the most, but now I'd like to know if it's gonna be released at all. Anybody? The VF-2SS was never confirmed and no release date has been given. Since Macross II was on the list everyone's jumping the gun that it will eventually be released. Quote
dizman Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Well if the VF-25 turns out half decent then I'll be excited about a possible VF-4. Most likely the VF-4 will be tear it apart and rebuild it into a robot kinda transformation but that doesnt bother me in the least. Quote
sharky Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 None, they are too small Yeah, we know, size does matter. Quote
sqidd Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Yeah, we know, size does matter. Absolutely. I don't want the little fella to get picked on by my 1/48's when im not at home Quote
Black Valkyrie Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 I made my mind the 1/100 VFs I`ll get are all blue : 1- VF-1A Max TV. 2- VF-25G Michael. 3- VF-19S. Quote
Crazy Canuck II Posted September 11, 2008 Posted September 11, 2008 I may be in the minority on this, but seeing as these will not be perfect transformation these will be more of display pieces for me and as such really want Bandai to detail the crap out of them with tons of tampo printing, panel lines and weathering. Basically a Macross line of the Gundam Fix Figuration, heck I'd even take the fix figuration crappy soft plastic and the tendency to fall apart as long as once together look as good. Quote
Warmaker Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 The VF-2SS was never confirmed and no release date has been given. Since Macross II was on the list everyone's jumping the gun that it will eventually be released. The thing is this: We're talking about Bandai here, who's the one working on this line of toys. Bandai, AFAIK, was the only company that released a Macross II Valk kit. Quote
WISEGUY Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 I went with the VF-4, because I'm gonna pick up the 1/72 VF-25 already. Quote
nightmareB4macross Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 Choose ONE!?!?! What a silly questions! I need all in 1/100. Quote

Basically a Macross line of the Gundam Fix Figuration, heck I'd even take the fix figuration crappy soft plastic and the tendency to fall apart as long as once together look as good. You know, even FIX figuration Gundam toys come with a TON of accessories, usually so many that you can transform the figure from one mobile suit to another. I haven't seen where the VF-25 will be coming with anything extra, but I'm hoping that's just b/c there isn't a ton of info on it yet. If it comes with different armors and stuff, then I might not care too much about perfect transformation if it looks beautiful in battroid and fighter modes. Quote
NekkiBasara Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 VF-171 !!! There's never been a decent toy done for the VF-17. i have the Bandai toy and it's pitiful. I think part of the reason is a scaling issue. In the series, the parts don't remain a consistent size when it changes modes. When Macross F came out, The VF-17 was reshaped into the VF-171 to actually transform realistically now that the valkyries are being done via CGI. Quote
Talonvar Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 I chose vf-27 but its definetly a toss up between vf-27 and the vf-4! Quote
UN Spacy Posted May 22, 2009 Author Posted May 22, 2009 (edited) Yamato. 1. Look at this poll. 2. Put the VF-4 at the top of your 1/60 PT list. 3. Profit. Believe me you'll profit. K THX BYE! Edited May 22, 2009 by UN Spacy Quote
