VF-1A TV Kakizaki

[kanedaestes]

Lol i tend to do Charlie's Angels type poses with my vermillion squadron. I am very happy to finally have the squad without painting valks to get it. I suck at painting.

I'm glad I got mine before they all dried up. Got it right after I got out of the hospital and went on a spending spree. Just wish I didn't hesitate on the TV FPs, now they're all gone. Funny thing is that I didn't want to get the TV series Valks except for the 1J with the armor parts and then the addiction got to me and I said "EFF IT!" And now with the TV Roy coming out, it's even more of a collection.

Can i assume these re-release don't have the rainbow coating on the canopy while the earlier release of the same products do?

[jenius]

I would really hope that the re-releases have the improved crotch and removed rainbow effect.

[m0n5t3r]

yeah, new crotch.... and more tampo markings for the Max TV 1A (at least as much as what the Kaki TV 1A got or better yet, all the tampo markings the CF 1J has).

Man, and I thought I was never going to own a TV Kakizaki! The guy was my least favorite, and I was planning to buy him last. But after this little scare, this fig's mine the moment it lands in HLJ!

[Old Man]

Dude, WTF!!! I just went through hell to get the TV Kakizaki and Max! Now they're gonna re-issue them with all the fixings? Just my luck...

[VF-18S Hornet]

indeed. What were they thinking well at least I got them though after posting them I got no raves about my Vermillion squadron being complete. I think I am getting boring to others.

[Old Man]

Okay...anybody want the first issue TV Max and Kakizaki unopened for a fair price?

[bowman]

Don't know if the re-issue will have a better crotch but if that's the case then i'm glad i didn't get the first version

[jenius]

I think it's a mixed bag. If you have some valks with the treated windows then you probably would want the first edition... it's not like the old crotch system didn't work and the 1A Max/Hayao allegedly had okay shoulders.

[m0n5t3r]

never really cared much about the rainbow canopy from the start, but i'll admit it's a nice touch... provided it doesn't shrivel up.

i would definitely prefer the new crotch. last old crotch v.2 VF-1 i got was the Max 1S (ages ago!). putting it in is not a problem but taking it out can be quite a pain and more prone to scratching off the paint on the swing bar.

...plus, on my M&Ms, w/c are the only "new crotch" 1-seaters i have and display in battroid, there's less of the priest collar showing... although i'm not entirely sure if this is due to the new crotch... i'm still waiting for my re-issue 1J+GBP to see if it's the same.

I'm really glad i held off buying these last year... I hope these re-issues will be like the recent 1J re-issues and have all the updates... consistency please, Yamato!

Now that you mentioned it, my TV Max is going to be the only one Vermilion Squadron member with the bubble effect on his canopy, being from the first release. Great, now he's gonna be the odd one out when my -1J Hikaru and TV Kakizaki arrive. Guess that means they'll be staying in battroid mode most of the time to hide the fact that only Max has the bubble effect on his canopy.
