EXO Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 The VF-1Js are coming up soon. I'm thinking for SDF series fans, this is the one we've been waiting for. Iconic scheme, TV style Hikaru... c'mon how can you not be excited? I'm also thinking this is the on that's going to be the on that people will customize for their Max/Kakizake TV 1A version. So if your buying, how many of each are you buying? Thanks... Quote
Sumdumgai Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 I'm not a canon extremist, I just prefer my valks without the FAST-packs. They look sleeker. Quote
Göönk Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 i ordered my fast packed one three weeks ago. Looking forward to transforming it ! Quote
UN Spacy Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 (edited) Both of my 1/48's are Fast Pack equipped.......so I guess I'll have to give in (and purchase Hikaru's VF-1J WITH Fast Packs). Can't let him go naked can I? EDIT. I'm a confused little soul. I said Fast Packs are a must but I voted for "NO Fast Packs (canon extremists)". BUT I also would rather see a GBP-1J too...............guess I should have picked NULL VOTE eh? Edited November 2, 2003 by UN Spacy Quote

Veifwan Es Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 I'm going for the 1J with fast packs. I'll probably keep them off for display, but I know in the long run that I'd regret not having the fast pack option if I decide I want it. In any case, I'll have an extra set of fast packs for any upcoming VF purchase! With all this toy and the Binaltechs I'm freakin broke...and now I've ran out of display case room...glad Ive got an understanding wife! Quote
Göönk Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 (edited) I think there is no white/red VF1J with fast packs in the macross tv series. Am i wrong? I should have ordered the VF1S with fast pack but I believe they are sold out. The VF1J (without fast pack) is the REAL macross fighter. The one we see most of the time. I hope that the fast packs will be grey and not blue. I like the tv series version. Grey!!!! Edited November 2, 2003 by Göönk Quote

BUT I also would rather see a GBP-1J too...............guess I should have picked NULL VOTE eh? Nah... just vote for what's realistically available and vote NONE if your not getting one now for whatever reason... so for my purposes you voted the right one. I just added NONE in there so I won't get the obligical "hey, where's the none of the above!" post... EDIT: oh yeah, don't pay too much attn. the reasons in the parenthesis, that's why it's also a thread and not a POLL ONLY... Sorry I don't usually start threads or polls for that matter... I'm just surprised no one has started this one. Or if there is one already I couldn't find it... Edited November 2, 2003 by >EXO< Quote
Anubis Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 I think I'll be satisfied with my 1/60 for now. 1/48 is tempting now but can't get anymore right now. Quote
Göönk Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 I think I'll be satisfied with my 1/60 for now. 1/48 is tempting now but can't get anymore right now. one 1/48 on the shelves doesnt hurt though Quote
Smut Peddler Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 2 with FP's here. Want the FP's for my low-vis though. Quote
Anubis Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 I think I'll be satisfied with my 1/60 for now. 1/48 is tempting now but can't get anymore right now. one 1/48 on the shelves doesnt hurt though I already have 2. A Hikaru 1A and a Roy Strike. Quote
bandit29 Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 No fast packs for me. I don't like the Hikaru VF-1J with FPs. Besides, I have 3 soon to be 4, 1/48s with FPs. The VF-1J will be my last 1/48. Quote
myk Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 I'm gonna' skip on this one, only because I'm not a fan of the TV Valkyries. Quote
Bub Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 Fast Packs. But it would be better to have bundled it with the GBP. Because the VF-1J Hikaru never wore the Fast Packs in the series. Quote
Nightbat Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 I've got more FastPacks than Valks But I ordered the 1J with FP's I should have been a (Mad) Scientist, giving all my reasonings a foundation with facts and theories ........it's like this: When i want a Milkshake I always buy the big one the small one is never enough, the medium one might be enough, but if it's not I still have a craving for a milkshake Now if I buy the big one, I'm sure I have enough and if it's too much, there will be no harm done Quote
Myersjessee Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 w/FP's...need the different varients! Quote
Godzilla Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 I am buying a couple of the M&M w/FPs and one of each of the others. Quote
Mechafan Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 I say with fastpacks. The more accesories the better. Quote
Draykov Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 Canon or no, fastpacks are cool. I like the look of the Valk better without them sometimes, but sometimes it's a "bulky overkill" kind of day. Fortunately, if I get the fast packs I always have the option of taking them off...it doesn't work the other way around. Quote
Nitrous Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 2 with FP's here. Want the FP's for my low-vis though. Hmm... everyone assumed that the FPs on VF-1J Hikaru can be "plug-and-played" on the Low Viz. Is it true, or is it still an assumption? Any ideas guys? Quote
Mr March Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 I currently own two Yamato 1/48 Valkyries, but I own FAST Packs for only one of them. I was holding out for a FAST Pack set to include those new hand sets featured with the VF-1J, but based on the responses I got about Yamato's intention, it seems low priority. So I figured if I have to buy a VF-1J, it might as well have the FAST pack set with it. You can always take the packs off, but if ya don't have em... Quote
Göönk Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 I wonder if the fast pack will be grey or blue. Early pictures show grey boosters hardware. I hope they're grey because blue would look like DYRL and I haven't seen it yet (shame on me). Quote
MicronianDevil Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 1J only. Dont want the FPs for the 1J. Quote
PC Valkyrie Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 (edited) I preordered one with fast packs. As many here have indicated, I don't have to actually put the fast packs on the valk if I feel like a "canon extremist" type of mood. I'm not a major fan of the TV series colour schemes, but I am really hoping for a 1/48 GBP armour in the future (Graham has previously stated that he thinks Yamato would be stupid not to make one in the future, so I'm hopeful that the Sithlord thinks there is a fair chance they will be made). Plus, gotta love those hands...... Edited November 3, 2003 by PC Valkyrie Quote
rocco_77 Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 With fast pack all the way... It may be the only way to get your hands on the TV style fast packs... Plus there is still a beautiful 1/48 Hikaru 1J underneath. Quote
Mr March Posted November 4, 2003 Posted November 4, 2003 Plus, gotta love those hands...... Hell yeah Quote
Lightning Posted November 4, 2003 Posted November 4, 2003 even though i'm outta $$ i still picked option 2 Quote
