Valkyrie Hunter D Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Man I'm glad to see some progress on this monster-thanks Save!
eugimon Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Isn't it great how the promotional art behind it is of the TV style Macross?
macrossnake Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Isn't it great how the promotional art behind it is of the TV style Macross? wow. yes, why the hell they have a TV SDF-1 poster in the background?

EXO Posted October 19, 2009 Author Posted October 19, 2009 Love it so far but I hope the paint isnt so diluted... I hope they go with the more dark bluish hue WILL BUY iT! (and the TV version!!!)
Save Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 (edited) wow. yes, why the hell they have a TV SDF-1 poster in the background? Those are posters for the Pachinko game, has nothing to do with Yamamto's SDF-1. OPPS forgot to put the blog link with MORE PICTURES!!!! Edited October 19, 2009 by Save
nanoplasm Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 wow. yes, why the hell they have a TV SDF-1 poster in the background? Although blocked by the SDF-1 toy, you can see the word "Fever" on top of the SDF:M logo in the background poster. Hence it's an ad for the pachinko game.
Tober Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Thanks for the pisc Save I'm guessing it's an early test shot model tho due to the lack of paint/decal details on the ARMDs..? The blue on the chest engines looks strange too
todd77 Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 The blue on the chest engines looks strange too Agreed. At least the finish looks like it's weathered, which means we won't have to fork out extra $$$ for a special weathering version.
EXO Posted October 19, 2009 Author Posted October 19, 2009 oooh! Money shot! Thanks to Over-drive and Save! Gonna put this one up on the Scoop Thread!
hutch Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 (edited) Can anybody glean the date or any other info from the card next to it? Obviously I can see 2010 but nothing beyond that... Edited October 19, 2009 by hutch
ff95gj Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Can anybody glean the date or any other info from the card next to it? Obviously I can see 2010 but nothing beyond that... They didn't say anything beyond that...
Javabean Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 After seeing this pics, definately changing my mind to wish to get it!
VF-18S Hornet Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Whooo-hoooo!!!! Bout time the pics are coming in deffinatly getting one
derex3592 Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 ohhhh man, that is looking GOOD! (not for the wallet however).....
eugimon Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Thanks for the pisc Save I'm guessing it's an early test shot model tho due to the lack of paint/decal details on the ARMDs..? The blue on the chest engines looks strange too The shots are taken with a flash, the colors aren't that washed out and the blue not that bright/hot.
jenius Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Even so, I hope they add some more contrast to the colors by the time everything is final. Obviously it's a thing of beauty but I want it to POP a bit more.
eugimon Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Even so, I hope they add some more contrast to the colors by the time everything is final. Obviously it's a thing of beauty but I want it to POP a bit more. I agree, but I don't think/hope that the one shown is anywhere near final... there's no paint apps on it other than the dark grey and those could very well be molded in color.
eugimon Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 yup, really hoping the ARMDs are fully detailed. I'd still like to see a light job on it as well, flood lights, windows, stuff like that.
Kicker773 Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 1/48 "Weathered" GBP-1S??? Another exclusive?? Graham could you give us more insight on this? Thanks. What is this??? I didn't get a memo from Yamato about this.. anymore info?
KiriK Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 now the only question i have is, where i'm gonna put this thing in my toy room?? guess i need to make a custom display in the center of the room!
ruskiiVFaussie Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 (edited) ohhh...... ohhhhhh Holy grail. It is THE Holy Grail of Macross Fandom. Huge thanks to Save and Overdrive!!! Edited October 19, 2009 by ruskiiVFaussie
Penguin Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 A thing of beauty is a joy forever. I get the feeling my Master Replicas Boba Fett blaster rifle will no longer be the costliest trophy to geekdom in my collection.
Bri Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 (edited) At this size I'm starting to wonder if it wouldn't be cheaper to buy it an airline seat instead of shipping it Edited October 19, 2009 by Bri
DyNo Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 At this size I'm starting to wonder if it wouldn't be cheaper to buy it an airline seat instead of shipping it hahahaah I'm with you on that....
ruskiiVFaussie Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 I really want the poster in the background. Seriously! They need to include it in the package, like the Ishtar poster with the 1/100 VF-2SS w/sap Bandai kit...
anotheran Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 I like how you get the weathered edition as standard... sweet! no more paying double for weathering
nightmareB4macross Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 Awesome!!! Can't wait to own this. I wonder just how many of the little valkyries will be included with this.
Penguin Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 At this size I'm starting to wonder if it wouldn't be cheaper to buy it an airline seat instead of shipping it Once it's out, I want to see someone take a picture of it in a child's car seat.
ruskiiVFaussie Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 (edited) lol!!!!!! that's a riot. Awesome!!! Can't wait to own this. I wonder just how many of the little valkyries will be included with this. Hope the Monster is there. even a Glaug and Regults! Edited October 22, 2009 by ruskiiVFaussie
Ignacio Ocamica Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 lol!!!!!! that's a riot. Hope the Monster is there. even a Glaug and Regults! +1!!!!
