mass driver Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Awesome! I'm glad they're finally shipping Quote
Jasonc Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Armor will be good for the 25S. I never got the original armor pack, so this will be a first for me. I'm pretty excited about it. Quote
Astralith Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Is micron Klan part of the renewal 25G package? I think Klan's package is closer to 56G Full Figure... ahem... I finally ordered an Alto Renewal! $355 including shipping... I'll set him back-to-back with my Ichijo J!!! Quote
OzmaLee74 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 I think Klan's package is closer to 56G Full Figure... ahem... I finally ordered an Alto Renewal! $355 including shipping... I'll set him back-to-back with my Ichijo J!!! Congrats on the purchase! I got my Alto at $200. Ozma though? Close to $300 since I had to scramble late in the game for one since I, like many others here, was BBTS'd. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 At this point, I *wish* I could get an Alto for 200. Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 So the armor is finally being released? I can't wait to put it on my Ozma VF-25. It's just not the same without the armor. Quote
OzmaLee74 Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 NY stated they're receiving their stock on the 27th so they should be shipping orders shortly. Quote
IXTL Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 (edited) Images from 2chan. Anime accurate or not, I dislike how the chest armor piece with the skull has a red hinge. The v1 had it too. Sticks out like a sore thumb. Edited July 28, 2012 by IXTL Quote
ArchieNov Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 Damn that looks awesome. Can't wait to get mine. Glad to see that it can stand by itself in battroid mode with all that weight in the back and also that the back doesn't droop in gerwalk. Quote
Dobber Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 NICE!! come on Nanoplasm! give us some good news. Chris Quote
Astralith Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 Images from 2chan. Anime accurate or not, I dislike how the chest armor piece with the skull has a red hinge. The v1 had it too. Sticks out like a sore thumb. Whatever you do, don't touch the red button... Got me?! It sort of looks like the self-destruct or eject button. It still looks awesome though and it could be worse, like Freedom Gundam's conspicuously red codpiece! It screams, "I'm talking to you. Eyes up here!" Quote
comicguru Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 got my notification that it was shipping out today. yeah!!! cant wait. i have the v1 and this one is so much better. that was from NY, btw Quote
mass driver Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 red hinge or not, it looks AWESOME. Bring it on Quote
Murphy Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 Is it me or does the replacement shoulder parts don't have the yellow/black trim on it. I cant remember seeing what color they are on the show anyway. Its doesn't matter to me I can't wait till I get them. if it bugs me that bad I hope I an use the shoulder parts from the super packs and just replace the missile pods with the armored pods. Also I wonder how the chest missile doors work to have them open on different sides it looks like you remove the missile cluster from the chest and put in a separate missle cluster that the door hinges on the other side. Quote
Lolicon Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 (edited) The yellow and black stripes are completely covered by a separate armor plate in the show. Edited July 28, 2012 by Lolicon Quote
xrentonx Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 At least the little red details shows up elsewhere on the Valk. Now if that red hinge was the only thing on the Valk that was red THEN it would really stick out like a sore thumb. Can't wait for my Ozma and Alto packs to come in...and I don't even have an Alto yet! Quote
ultraman zoffy Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 So badass looking... can't wait for my set to arrive. On another note, it always cracked me up how the red Vajra laughed off everything this armor threw at it in episode 1. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 Can't wait for my Ozma and Alto packs to come in...and I don't even have an Alto yet! Thanks for letting me know I'm not alone in "buying parts for valks I don't own". Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 Thanks for letting me know I'm not alone in "buying parts for valks I don't own". You can add me to that camp too. Quote
ErikElvis Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 Well I have a feeling Bandai will revisit the F+S. And am I the only one who likes Alto better in armor and Ozma with a super pack? Quote
Loop Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 (edited) LOL,check out this link: Osama Armor I bet Bin Laden wished he had that when his ass got busted! Edited July 29, 2012 by Loop Quote
IXTL Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 Amored Alto. At least the red hinge doesn't look out of place on this one. Quote
IdeaOfEvil Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 What are the chances that a new set including any of the Valkryie fighters and the super parts in one box will be released? Quote
Ghilbert Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 Bandai has never done a straight reissue of a tamshii web exclusive, so, even if they relase a set with armor or super pack probably they will be repaint version non anime accurate, l Quote
OzmaLee74 Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Just got my shipping notification and tracking number from NY! Woot! Quote

(I think everyone here is aware of how finicky I am about shades of white/grey on my valks) Quote
Chronocidal Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 You know, if they released a second version with an off white for Alto's, and bundled it, I'd grab it, just to have a non-white one. Plus, I actually hope they do release one of those types of unwanted recolors, because it'll mean there's at least one release of this thing that sits on shelves. Unfortunately, they probably learned from the first time. They're being so ridiculously cautious about overproducing though, I doubt they'll take any risks at all with the VF-25 line. Quote
IdeaOfEvil Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 So if I wanna get the best of the best, I want to buy the VF-25F Messiah Renewal Valkyrie and the VF-25F Messiah Super Parts kit, right? Quote
Tober Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 That's part of the reason I'm ordering these sets even without owning the valk yet---fear that any future re-release bundle will be "recolored" like the blue-tinted VF-25F set was. (I think everyone here is aware of how finicky I am about shades of white/grey on my valks) Wasn't it just the VF-25F Tornado Movie set that had the blue tinge? Or was it the super bundle as well? When the VF-25S Armor bundle was released was it recolored too? I stopped buying V.1 VF-25 Valks after the first release. Quote

Tornado bundle was in the regular white I believe. Quote
Falcon Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Any chance of a tornado set for the renewals? Would love the Alto to have that option. Quote
