Cent Posted July 16, 2010 Posted July 16, 2010 (edited) Eh... I wasn't making a comment about the QC of the toy (yet). It just looks like the staff in charge of the display gave the toy to his toddler to bash around for a day before putting it up. >_> Edited July 16, 2010 by Cent Quote
Twoducks Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 Looks like the actual product can stand on it's own pretty nicelly: (That or pink gives you extra stiff powers) Found here Quote
charger69 Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 Pink König Monster is three times faster... Everybody knows that Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 Those are some... interesting colors. Looks like Mylene upgraded to a Konig. Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 Was it colored like that in the movie? I thought that it was like that because it was a test shot colored like that to show the different pieces. Quote
jenius Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 It's just a mold test guys... the colors mean nothing (I believe Graham pointed that out in the Hi-metal thread). (That or pink gives you extra stiff powers) how has that not gotten a billion juvenile responses already? Excellent word choice - Quote

ruskiiVFaussie Posted July 27, 2010 Posted July 27, 2010 (edited) damn that Koenig looks fine!!! Totally getting into this line, and hikaru and Roy 1S Strike. Brilliant toy! And the VF-1S... Just love fighter mode, and battroid looks poseable enough, such an upgrade over the toynami hahahahh. Edited July 27, 2010 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote
ae_productions Posted July 28, 2010 Posted July 28, 2010 Well, isn't the Lucifer Valkyrie Pink to match? Quote
Funkenstein Posted July 30, 2010 Author Posted July 30, 2010 Well, isn't the Lucifer Valkyrie Pink to match? The VF-27 custom is Red, like the Red Comet. 3 times faster! Quote
ae_productions Posted August 7, 2010 Posted August 7, 2010 It would be interesting to see this in a pic by pic comparison with the Yamato version. Quote
EXO Posted August 7, 2010 Posted August 7, 2010 DX Chogokin VB-6 König Monster - September release, 16,800 Yen (inclusive of tax). Quote
1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted August 7, 2010 Posted August 7, 2010 Looking good. Would love to see yamato redo their one. I actually prefer that one over the one in macross frontier. (better cannon barrels) Any indication what kind of joints it will have to hold arms up so it doesn't become a floppy mess? Quote
eriku Posted August 8, 2010 Posted August 8, 2010 Any indication what kind of joints it will have to hold arms up so it doesn't become a floppy mess? In this photo you can see some ridges/detents in the arm/elbow articulation. I think it's safe to assume the shoulders will also have detents/ratchets. Quote
macrossnake Posted August 8, 2010 Posted August 8, 2010 (edited) larger photos, looking good. Edited August 8, 2010 by macrossnake Quote
ae_productions Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 I hate to say it, but as much as I love the Yamato version (which I will hopefully be getting from EXO soon...) this is just 10 times better. That shark mouth kicks so much @ss it's not funny. Bandai knocked this one out of the park! Quote
valid Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 i just wondering.. do the actual design of the koenig.. was not include a landing gear in the film? coz it look weird for a ship without a landing gear Quote
UN Spacy Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 i just wondering.. do the actual design of the koenig.. was not include a landing gear in the film? coz it look weird for a ship without a landing gear I think it was only shown once (episode 16). Quote
Guest sh002 Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 damn this puts yamato's version to shame. what scale is this again? Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 damn this puts yamato's version to shame. what scale is this again? It looked like it might be around the same size as Yamato's which was 1/100 scale. Quote
Guest sh002 Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 hopefully people will get theirs soon and post pics so we can see. i think it might be in scale to the robot spirits line. damn why can't bandai just make a 1/100 qrea already. Quote
valid Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 I think it was only shown once (episode 16). hope it include landing gear like this to. Quote
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 Hopefully it comes with the stand. I was thinking the same thing. That stand doesn't look half bad. Quote
Remko Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 (edited) I think it was only shown once (episode 16). That's something I never quite understood... *Rant mode ON* Listen people, however cool it looks, YOU DON'T NEED WHEELS IN SPACE!!! The concept of a spaceborne aircraft carrier launching VF's from the flightdeck as if they were on sea is ridiculous, and a waste of time. Just launch them from bays (like the Ghost fighters in the final episode of Frontier), or deploy them directly into space from launcharms (as on the original SDF). Wheels won't work in space (I think the rubber would not even withstand the temperature changes/zero-gravity), but even if they do, the fighters would just float away from the flightdeck. In my opinion, the coolest way of depicting a multiple fighter launch in space (specifically Macross) is how the Guantanamo-stealthcarrier works. *Rant mode OFF* :D Edited August 15, 2010 by Remko Quote
Maiden Japan Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 Yes, you need wheels in space. Those vehicles are not always in space. Wheels are needed to store inside the hanger, and any place where gravity takes place. We're not talking reality science. We're talking Macross. Quote
anime52k8 Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 Just launch them from bays (like the Ghost fighters in the final episode of Frontier), or deploy them directly into space from launcharms (as on the original SDF). Actually using a catapult to launch fighters in space makes more sense than just nudging them out the side of the ship. the catapult will get the craft further from the ship and give it more speed/momentum without having to use any of the fighters internal propellant.

ae_productions Posted August 14, 2010 Posted August 14, 2010 It looked like it might be around the same size as Yamato's which was 1/100 scale. I think you're right. But this baby blows the Yamato out of the water! Ban Dai is going to make me broke this year. Quote

ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 absolutely beautiful and bad ass! This is an essential purchase. Quote
anubis20 Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 Finally a pic without that damn stand!!! Quote
