Bri Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 (edited) That VF-1A TV looks fartin bad-ass! Time to army build!! Same, I'll end up ordering a case. With Vermillion, Roy and 2x VF1J CF would make a nice display squadron at 12 pieces of 4 x 3 man groups. Wonder how large Skull squad is canon-wise. Edited April 24, 2009 by Bri Quote
Omegablue Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 I'm really surprised in seeing all these CF coming out before the Miriya and Max 1J... I really want to purchase a 1J CF, but I know when I'll click submit order, on the following day Miriya and Max will be listed for orders... Quote
DarrinG Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 Of all the 3 "brown" shades I prefer the one of the upcoming VF-1A: Agree. I'm in for the CF TV 1A for sure. The 1J brown SHOULD be the same. Different for difference sake in not good in this case. If they make them the same, and I find a spare $90 bucks burning a hole in my pocket, I may splurge on the 1J CF as well. K's 1A can be a little different I guess, but the TV CF 1A brown is easily the best . . . Quote

Roy Focker Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 How come Yamato doesn't use the right colors for the Pilot Suit? Hayao is yellow and blue. He wasn't the only one with those colors but the most common was blue and green. Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 I wonder if we'll get a DYRL? CF 1A?? I'm getting the TV ver. but I'll buy multiples if Yamato issues the DYRL? ver. Quote

Agent-GHQ Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 I have not purchased from OD before. Are they shipped from Japan? The prices are lower than most e-tailer! Quote
logos Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 (edited) They ship from Japan. What sucks about them is that they will only ship EMS so make sure to make multiple orders at once. Oh and they charge you the second you make a preorder to. Otherwise I have never had a problem with them. Edited April 24, 2009 by logos Quote
Vostok 7 Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 I have not purchased from OD before. Are they shipped from Japan? The prices are lower than most e-tailer! I bought my Beagle Ride Armor and v2 VF-1D from them and the service was excellent. A recommend from me for sure. Vostok 7 Quote
eugimon Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 I like them as well and unlike HLJ they're willing to work with you to modify open orders, combine shipping, etc. Quote
Agent-GHQ Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 Thanks bros! By the way, are the Super TV parts differ from the Strike Movie parts in terms of color? Quote
logos Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 (edited) Yes. One is greenish and the other leans towards blue. I can't remember which is which right now. Edited April 24, 2009 by logos Quote
Agent-GHQ Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 Thanks Logos! I bet the greener one is the TV? Quote
Dobber Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 Yes, the TV version is greenish and a the shade is a bit lighter, while the DYRL version is darker and more blue. Also the Arm armor is slightly different as the launcher end is a smooth slope instead of U shaped. I think the TV version won't come with the strike cannon part though. Chris Quote
Dobber Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 Damn, I gotta admit that that CF 1A looks fraking NICE!!! I may have to get that and a 1S Max!!! Chris Quote
ron5864 Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 That VF-1A tan color is more proper looking than the VF-1J version. But since I already have the 1/48 valk, I'll pass on this. Quote

I actually really like that the 1j is a different shade. It should look impressive if some has a large group of CF 1a and there's just a smattering of CF 1j in there. Quote
Mog Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 How come Yamato doesn't use the right colors for the Pilot Suit? Hayao is yellow and blue. He wasn't the only one with those colors but the most common was blue and green. Totally agree with you there. Also, other than the original 1/60's, has Yamato ever given us a properly colored TV-style Roy pilot yet? Quote
Javabean Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 Thanks Logos! I bet the greener one is the TV? In fact, the common pilot hv greenish blue suit on TV. I might want to touch up the colour myself once I got all the CFs. Quote
Gunpod71 Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 (edited) Awesome! I think it's cool Yamato is doing all the different versions of these Valks. Not everyone likes the same ones so they catering to us all I think. Besides with all the variety they pretty much guarantee that we are all going to pick up 3+ Valks. I have a VF-1S Strike with a VF-1J and VF-1D on order. Now I seriously tempted to get this one and a DYRL Max and Kakizaki. And here I was saying to myself last summer that I'll order just one! OH and FYI those panel lines are there on the chest you just have to look closer at the pics. It's either bad lighting hiding the panel lines on the brown or maybe just an issue with the prototype. Just ordered 1S Hikaru w/Strike Parts, and a TV Max. The end of next week I'll be ordering 1S Roy w/ Strike Parts, 1A Hikaru w/Strike Parts, and a 1S Max or 1D. GAAAAAAHHHH whats the point! might as well send my direct deposit straight up to Yamato! Edited April 25, 2009 by Gunpod71 Quote
Black Valkyrie Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 VF-1A CF excellent. Man so many Macross toys this year, so many to purchase . Quote
Gunpod71 Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 VF-1A CF excellent. Man so many Macross toys this year, so many to purchase . Yeah man just give your wallet to Yamato Quote
Agent-GHQ Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 Screw that! Yamato has to earn it. And it looks like they already have. Quote
Black Valkyrie Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 Screw that! Yamato has to earn it. And it looks like they already have. Ture but we also wanna save . I have feeling we are gonna more VF-1A types, including the M&M arcade color type. Quote
Gunpod71 Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 The 1A CF is nice, its just a matter of time for the M&M, I really hope they bring out the 1J stealth w/strike parts, really love the paint scheme on that valk. Oh btw anyone makin some side covers?? Quote
Javabean Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 Yeah man just give your wallet to Yamato I may as well give my house mortgage to Yamato too Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 Sexy!!! i may just buy a few of these.... maybe '1' 1J and '2' 1A CF's... they look, sooo nice. Quote
anime52k8 Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 so is their a date set for when this is coming out? I think I'm going to cave and get the 1A if it doesn't arrive too close to the VE-1. since it's a true TV version, it's not doubling up with my 1/48 CF right? ...right? ....guys? Quote
Sluff Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 What are the main differences between TV and DYRL version? And the V.1 TRU edition CF is that TV or DYRL? Sorry I don't have any 1/48s Quote
Vostok 7 Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 What are the main differences between TV and DYRL version? And the V.1 TRU edition CF is that TV or DYRL? Sorry I don't have any 1/48s Well, in the case of the v1s, the TRU was a darker brown (similar to the v2 TV CF-1A shown in this thread) and the mass release was a more tan color (similar to the v2 CF-1J). Otherwise, the v1s were exactly the same. This new v2 CF-1A TV will be different from the DYRL in probably color and most definitely head style. Yamato has finally styled the -1A head differently for the TV models. Look at the CF-1A posted in this thread, the head style is more rounded and the sensor eye is flush with the front of the head. On the DYRL -1As, there's a black bezel around the sensor eye and the whole head is a little sharper edged and more utilitarian looking. I prefer the DYRL -1As myself, so hopefully Yamato comes out with a DYRL CF -1A soon. Vostok 7 Quote
Lynx7725 Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 (edited) Damn. Missed this. Well, I got a Roy, a CF-1J Production on order (with DYRL FAST packs...). I'm only really interested to get one CF-1A (probably with DYRL FAST again), then a ELINTSeeker to round off the flight. Then that's about it for my 1/60 v2 line, just need to get Roy's arms fixed. EDIT: DYRL or TV CF-1A? Well, I'll really prefer a DYRL CF-1A, but I'm not too sure if Yammie's coming out with one. Decisions, decisions... Edited April 26, 2009 by Lynx7725 Quote
Dobber Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 I'm really liking the Brown tint to the Feet/engine nozzles. Someone else also asked, what is the difference between the DYRL CF and the TV CF 1A's besides the head? Chris Quote

Someone else also asked, what is the difference between the DYRL CF and the TV CF 1A's besides the head? Chris the pilot figure and the fixed pose hands are different. the paint scheme itself is the same, although the exact shade of brown might be different. (the 1/48 CF-1A had a DYRL? body with TV accessories, and the color was closer to the CF-1J than the 1A in the pictures. of all the browns they've used I think the TV 1A looks the best. Quote
