ErikElvis Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 (edited) Its hard to get a good well lit shot with a iPhone these pictures really make it look more bland than it really is. It must be hard for the camera to pick up the color correctly. In hand this thing looks great. Edited August 7, 2012 by ErikElvis Quote
Mommar Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 Yes!!! Hopefully mine will arrive sometime this week and I can get some Low Vis 1S/Cavalier Gerwalk poses together. Quote
Jasonc Posted August 8, 2012 Posted August 8, 2012 I like the color of this valk, but to be honest, the darkness of it makes it a little plane IMO. Don't know if I'm going to get a second one. I'll probably keep that extra money for the new 19 coming, or just apply it to the pair of VF-4s I want. Quote
Mommar Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 I'll try to take pics tomorrow but the Cav's looks pretty bad-ass with the Super Packs on. Quote
xrentonx Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 (edited) I just put in the request to ship my Cav and DYRL Focker. Can't wait! Edited August 9, 2012 by xrentonx Quote
Wasabi-san Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 Dumb question here... The kite is on the right wing. All of the others are on the left and in a different position. Did the cel get flipped during the filming sequence and Yamato went canon to make the toy? The prototype and the production pics above show it backwards. Just curious. Quote
derex3592 Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 (edited) The scene in the show showed it on the opposite wing from normal as I remember..sure somebody around here has the screen cap of it. Edited August 9, 2012 by derex3592 Quote
typhoon Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 I received mine today, can't understand why this scheme has never been done before - it looks great. It would have been nice to get the option parts, but I'm not that stressed as I have a spare set fom EXO's last run. Quote
usagiz Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) The scene in the show showed it on the opposite wing from normal as I remember..sure somebody around here has the screen cap of it. Just got mine, and its a nice midnight blue! Edited August 10, 2012 by usagiz Quote
Mechapilot77 Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 I received mine today, can't understand why this scheme has never been done before - it looks great. It would have been nice to get the option parts, but I'm not that stressed as I have a spare set fom EXO's last run. yeah it really is one of the best color schemes to date. i think its currently among my top 5 favorite valks! we'll see how long that appeal lasts. right now....its definitely the "new hotness". haha.

UN Spacy Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 Just got mine, and its a nice midnight blue! Found this shot at toysdaily. Quote
jvmacross Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 Wonder if anyone will customize theirs by removing the "extra" stripes? Quote
Valkyrie Magnus Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 What episode was that where the cavaliers appeared in Quote
ps99042 Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 as soon as i sell off my sv-51 this WILL be mine! you guys are such a bad influence on me:) Quote
Mommar Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 I was trying to post a slideshow of the pics I took but I can't figure out how to get it to work. Quote
Mommar Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 Alright, here's my pics of the Cavs with Fast Packs. Quote
Mommar Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 I think it might look really cool if the packs and Reaction Warheads were colored the same as the shins. Those bright white Reaction Warheads look awful in bright white on this thing. Quote
Vi-RS Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 Yamato did screw up their customers big time for attaching the misleading "Optional Parts Included" bend on the box. 「1/60完全変形VF-1A キャヴァリアーズ」をお買い上げのお客様へ 平素は弊社商品をご愛顧頂き誠にありがとうございます。 2012年8月発売予定の「1/60完全変形VF-1 キャヴァリアーズ」のパッケージに関しまして、一部商品に「オプションパーツ付き」の旨を記載したステッカーが貼付されているものがございますが、ご予約受付当初のご案内通り、実際の商品にはオプションパーツは付属しない仕様となっております。 お客様並びに関係者の皆様には混乱を招く形となってしまいましたことを深くお詫び申し上げます。 今後はこのような事のないよう生産時の検品など重々注意致しますとともに、製品そのものに関しましても、より皆様にご満足頂けるよう品質向上に鋭意努力してまいりますので、変わらぬご愛顧のほどを何卒よろしくお願いいたします。 （株）やまと Quote
Mommar Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 Is it possible they actually did intend to include the parts and it's actually a factory error? Quote
Vi-RS Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 Is it possible they actually did intend to include the parts and it's actually a factory error? It's the other way around, Yamato did not intend to include the optional parts but factory affixed the label. Either way, it's still factory's error.

Although there is not sticker Nikanshimashite packages are scheduled to be released in August 2012 of "VF-1 calibration Varia's complete transformation 1/60", which describes the effect of "with optional parts" some products have been affixed, Reservations as the original guide, to the actual product specifications and is optional parts not included.

Valkyrie Magnus Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 I see other stores are sold out. Should I buy one now before it's too late? Quote
jvmacross Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 LOL.....the delay was to affix the sticker that ultimately was really not supposed to have been affixed... Quote
Wasabi-san Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 What about painting the super/strike parts the darker grey like the nose stripe/intake covers, since it is supposed to be a "Dark Bird" of sorts? Quote
Swoosh Posted August 15, 2012 Posted August 15, 2012 A few shot before I do the stickers Beautiful bird! Quote
ErikElvis Posted August 15, 2012 Posted August 15, 2012 Sweet! Now those are some proper pictures Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted August 15, 2012 Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) I've just received mine from ishop2go, still waiting for the second I got from HLJ!!! This scheme is absolutely awesome!!! Will post pics later. A few shot before I do the stickers Beautiful bird! I'm toying with the idea to place the SV-26 sticker on the chestplate (similar placement like the "Enigma" scheme). Edited August 15, 2012 by Ignacio Ocamica Quote
Swoosh Posted August 15, 2012 Posted August 15, 2012 Partially done I've just received mine from ishop2go, still waiting for the second I got from HLJ!!! This scheme is absolutely awesome!!! Will post pics later. I'm toying with the idea to place the SV-26 sticker on the chestplate (similar placement like the "Enigma" scheme). Good idea!! I may do the same!! Quote
genomcorp Posted August 15, 2012 Posted August 15, 2012 wow, sweet lighting job on those photos! The reflection underneath is a nice touch as well Quote
jvmacross Posted August 15, 2012 Posted August 15, 2012 Unlike other VF's, I have never seen anyone post their dislike of the original VF-1 design........the above pics explain why.... VF-1 Rules! Quote
DyNo Posted August 15, 2012 Posted August 15, 2012 I wish HLJ would hurry up and ship mine out! Quote
