Poll - which 1/60 VF would you like to see next from Yamato?

[eriku]

The term "sore winner" comes to mind.

[Penguin]

You're assuming it's a "win". Worst-case, Yamato says "VF-2SS?? That'll never sell in Japan! You guys are out of touch!" and never listens to our opinions again.

I agree with Alvaro... just do 'em all.

[eriku]

Heh, winner of the poll I meant.

I think the poll results will be a curiosity to Yamato, but I doubt they'll base their actions very heavily upon it.

True.

It's cool that they're willing to listen to our opinions via Graham, and Graham's first post did mention he only proposed "serious contenders". So, by no means am I trying to discourage VF-2SS fans from voting for their favourite. The thought just occured to me when reading Save's post that it would be funny in a sardonic/ironic/perverse sorta way if expressing our collective opinion had the reverse result of us never getting what we want.

[Mog]

If this poll results in Yamato saying, "I guess we we should skip making any Basara VF-19's," wouldn't we ALL be winners?

[UN Spacy]

Not really. I'd actually buy Basara's VF-19.

[hutch]

The VF-2SS just kind of looks like a VF-1 knock off to me. Like if someone was trying to make a 'futuristicle' VF-1 but didn't want to or have the imagination to, depart from the design too much.

[mojacko]

my vote goesto V4!

hell yeah! lol i totally see them doing Fire Valk, and i'll buy it in a snap!

They need to make the sound boosters actual speakers, seeing how they would be big enough, and dock it with an I-Pod/USB.

Hell if they don't i'd love to try and do it for myself! Listen to my Songs bitches!

VF-0D from Macross Zero

A great looking valk but not a must buy for me. It's in the category of interesting two seaters like the VF1D, VF-1D VR, VE-1 and VT-1. Might pick one up someday, but with Yamato current pace of releases it won't be soon.

VF-4 from Flash Back 2012

Gorgeous valk. Hikaru's bird and skull-one so a must buy for me. Same for the Max and Milia schemes with dancing skull markings.

VF-17 from Macross 7

I don't like the looks of stealth aircraft and the F-117 is plain ugly. Not interested.

VF-19 from Macross 7, including kai/F/S/P & possibly Super Packs & Sound Booster

I'm not the biggest fan of the 19 but I'd definitly get the Basara ones.

VF-2SS from Macross II, possibly including SAP

Love it's sleek and 80's wave rider design. Definite buy.

Of the Valks listed the VF-4 and VF-2SS stand out for me (by far).

yeah but just look at yourselves, it's like the only way the 4 can get up is if you rot the hell out of the 2SS. hah!

Whatever you say.

[Kyp Durron]

i like the vf 4 but the vf 2ss is better

Yes, in Battroid, but that's it.

You're assuming it's a "win". Worst-case, Yamato says "VF-2SS?? That'll never sell in Japan! You guys are out of touch!" and never listens to our opinions again.

....I honestly wouldn't be the least bit surprised if it turned out that way.

[Sumdumgai]

After my first choice of VF-17 (for likely to be released due to repaints), my second choice would definitely be the VF-4. Truth to be told I want a VF-4 more than a VF-17, but the 17 seems more feasible now that Yamato has more to choose from.

Though one that wasn't brought up that I'd like to see sometime is the VF-5000, unless M7 Dynamite doesn't fall into the license. But considering that Graham put VF-19P in the poll, I guess it does fall into the license. Only one repaint for the VF-5000 though, if the VFX2 license counts (and if it counts the special edition version/NA demo). Unless Yamato can also do M3 valkyries and schemes.

jus a casual reply dun feel offended

we r living in a world of imaginations. just feeling 1/48 is quite common for crazy fans. they need something better like sdf1:2k to sleep with. sry for being human of spirits "I DUN CARE" my avatar tells everyone im a joke. in fact i based the ideas from old m toys.

lights for all req areas, diecast moving engine, turnable wheels etc how difficult yet perfect would it be.

I was just thinking if this is not about VF, but only Macross goods, I would vote for a Spartan.

Oh yes, that can't be too far away.

[ff95gj]

Oh yes, that can't be too far away.

I am not as optimistic... From what Graham said last time, it seems that they don't have a plan for the Spartan because it does not really share much with the mold of the other Destroids.

I hate to see things incomplete. I hate to see a Destroid missing out of the four! And a melee mech is fun.

Atleast the Spartan gets Hikaru as a pilot, so that is a bonus.

Exactly. It's a hero mech too in this sense.

P.S. I need the rod/ club thing as an accessory.

[alvaro]

i believe, only time. so dun die kekeke

[thedarkmarine]

I like this kit, but I'd actually prefer something closer to the official line art.

and if Yamato thinks there aren't enough options for repaints with the VF-4, they need to take a look at Talo's Photobucket account. infinite repaint options ready to go.

Wow. That looks really really messy. There's no flow. Things just begin and end...

I vote for the sexiest one on the list.

I do not have much reference but this battroid design looks amateurish at best.

And worst of all it does not look Macross . . .

i voted 17...the stealth look is rad, and i enjoy those fringe-ish looking valks...not knocking any of the others i wish we could get them all

It depends on how you look at it...

I only see a couple of dozen of active users around. And 200 votes! Wow!

P.S. I've just pulled a few votes from TD (that HK toy forum). They registered some time ago but just not very active.

It is time for me to defend my belove VF-4.

I like VF-2ss battriod mode, but no way that you can bad mouth the mighty VF-4 fighter mode!

[macrossnake]

and look at this.... please Yamato!
