DarrinG Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 When is the next Toy Show (or whatever) that we might hear more about the Phalanx kit or the extra VF-1 parts? Quote
Reïvaj Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) CYBERGUNDAM has posted this recently: 發售日未定: Model Kit 1/60 SDR-04-Mk.XII Destroid Phalanx. It looks like Yamato hasn't defenestrated this project yet. Source: http://blog.yahoo.co...%B0%88%E6%AC%84 Edited November 29, 2011 by Reïvaj Quote
nightmareB4macross Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 Thanks for sharing Reivaj, but that is the exact same bulletin posted on MW a few months back. Seems like the Phalanx is not progressing towards completion of any kind. Quote
Reïvaj Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) Yeah, I’d noticed it’s the same bulletin; my point is they haven’t hidden it and that must mean something. Edited April 2, 2012 by Reïvaj Quote
nightmareB4macross Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 Just another way of giving us false hope, ala 1/60 Monster... I'm sure they must have one completely done and lying around somewhere. Just wish they would complete the destroid line already. Quote
Jasonc Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 I hope this project comes to fruition sometime. I'd love to have a phalanx. Quote
EXO Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 I'm already convinced I'm going to make myself a kit, even if this one comes out. I already bought an extra Defender and unless the Yamato kit is super inexpensive, which I doubt, I don't want to buy another HDP set. as purty as they are. Quote
DarrinG Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 I'm in Yamato - bring on the Phalanx kit... Quote
EXO Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Hmmm... the detail on that kit does look good... dammit Yamato! Quote
DarrinG Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Do you SERIOUSLY need both a Tomahawk and Defender to make the Phalanx?? I highly doubted you'd need an existing one - figured for sure it would be a complete kit. But you need to sacrifice 2 existing Destroids? And what about weathered version? Think they might release a weathered Phalanx kit too? In that scenario -- you'd need a reg Defender and weathered Tomahawk to complete it? Quote
VF5SS Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 This article says it will still have the ABS and diecast lower legs. Gotta chillax, guys. It's allllllllllllright. Quote
DarrinG Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 This article says it will still have the ABS and diecast lower legs. Gotta chillax, guys. It's allllllllllllright. Now - hang on a second. Last night on my iPhone I saw on MW it would take 2 existing roids to make this work - now I can't find where I saw that. VF5 - Are you saying you think it will be a complete kit?? Quote
usagiz Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Don't make me post a pic of how two destroids would make a Phalanx! It was never confirmed by Yamato what the final form of this release... We've only heard that it would be a partial kit... I bet they'll package legs like the build your own VF-1 kits Now seriously Yamato, I want a lighter and dark blue kits, pretty please! Quote
BlueMax Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 I have only heard it to be a hybrid kit... as in ABS + HDP(or resin) kit. However,it is a good marketing move to clear the existing stocks on the market for the other 2 destroids. Imagine needing the 2 existing ones to complete the 3rd one. Stocks for the remaining Defenders and Tomahawks will be gone in a flash! Quote
EXO Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Sorry guys. Remember yesterday's date? And yes. It looks like the kit will come with the necessary plastic parts. Quote
DarrinG Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 (edited) Sorry guys. Remember yesterday's date? And yes. It looks like the kit will come with the necessary plastic parts. OH NO WAY ---- HA! You got me. And I am so glad that was a friggin joke. I started pricing a few more destroids for the parts and I was just sick thinking about the total cost... PHEW Edited April 2, 2012 by DarrinG Quote
Old Man Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 OH NO WAY ---- HA! You got me. And I am so glad that was a friggin joke. I started pricing a few more destroids for the parts and I was just sick thinking about the total cost... PHEW You and me both! I was already contacting eBay sellers asking them what kind of deal they could give me if I bought both Destroids from them...HAHA! Good one, Alex!!! Quote
usagiz Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 (edited) How to create a Weathered Phalanx... :-). Don't worry, you can always use the extra destroids for a Daetalus Attack display! Usagiz Edited April 2, 2012 by usagiz Quote
EXO Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Whew. I'm glad people didn't bite bullet that quick. Quote
Old Man Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Whew. I'm glad people didn't bite bullet that quick. Dude...I was SO close... Quote
505thAirborne Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Sorry guys. Remember yesterday's date? And yes. It looks like the kit will come with the necessary plastic parts. Nice one EXO! Quote
DarrinG Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 Yamato will of course include the optional 'looking everywhere at once' blue head too right? Quote
EXO Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 Yamato will of course include the optional 'looking everywhere at once' blue head too right? Does that mean you're getting more than one kit? I guess your saving money from havin to buy those other destroids. Lol. Quote
usagiz Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 I would hope for a secondary release with optional parts:-) now the regult hdp kit came in black, should we expect this kit to start as black, white, or tan shades?? I'll want tan and cavalier-esque blue! Quote
EXO Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 I can make that head. I'll see if I get one or two kits. Quote
DarrinG Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 Does that mean you're getting more than one kit? I guess your saving money from havin to buy those other destroids. Lol. I would LOVE 2 kits - doubt that's affordable though. Do they list a price yet? Hope we get 2 ground crew as well... Quote
Vi-RS Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 No further news on Phalanx yet, but guess who is coming next? The Spartan..... Quote
Agent-GHQ Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 Uhhh..... Is this supposed to be a 1/60 V2 or a resin kit??? Quote
Tober Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 (edited) No further news on Phalanx yet, but guess who is coming next? The Spartan..... Excellent! Thanks for the news. Has it been confirmed who the manufacturer is? Last I heard there was some doubt as to weather it is Yamato... And I don't know anything about Macross Entertainment Factory... Edited May 22, 2012 by Tober Quote
DarrinG Posted June 5, 2012 Posted June 5, 2012 Dear Yamato - Please TAKE YOUR TIME on the Phalanx kit, no need to rush... Quote
