plastik Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 Brera is an antihero... that makes him a "hero" actually He's the hero Macross World deserves, but not the one it needs right now... Quote
ff95gj Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Oh my god. Oh my god. VF-25A!!!! http://www.toysdaily.com/discuz/thread-209593-1-1.html Quote
Benson13 Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Hell yeah. Non hero renewal Valk I'll be able to buy. Quote

SaitouSad Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Hell yeah. Non hero renewal Valk I'll be able to buy. But it doesn't say it's a web exclusive I'll definitely have to pick 1 up Quote
Scyla Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 OMG. I guess Graham will buy the living hell out of this variant. Seems like Bandai doesn't want to show us the head in all its glory since it is similar but not identical to the VF-25G head if my memory serves me correctly. Also it seems like this is unit 27 does we know anything about who the plane belongs to? If this is official I wonder why Bandai would make this toy since neither the VF-171CF nor the RVF-25 seems to sell very well. On the other hand this would indicate that those two Valkyries sold well and Bandai ramped up their production runs. Or they just interpret their numbers wrong. Quote
Gakken85 Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 any word on when that will be up for preorder? Quote
Scyla Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) If they release the Super Parts for the CF version will Bandai include all the parts or only the leg armor and the booster like seen ins some shots in the show. Don't know if I will buy this one. I think I cannot justify another VF-25 when I already have 4 in my collection especially since this will look almost the same as the VF-25G. Then again I preordered the Super Parts for Michael and Luca so I wont have a plain VF-25 in my collection but then if they release the Super Parts for the VF-25A I think they would pretty neat but then I don't have a plain VF-25 anymore.... *insert vicious circle here* ..the VF-25 line from Bandai quickly becomes the VF-1 Line from Yamato/Arcadia. I guess the YF-25 Prophecy will be next right? Edited June 21, 2013 by Scyla Quote
SaitouSad Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Don't forget, we still have the VF-25S reissue to look forward to..Here I thought that's all I'll be left to deal with Quote
Scyla Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Don't forget, we still have the VF-25S reissue to look forward to.. Here I thought that's all I'll be left to deal with Seeing how popular hero and how unpopular CF units are in Japan why would Bandai announce this before the VF-25S reissue? Quote
TCracker Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 After the VF25A, I really do hope they announce the reissue for VF25S. I need another one. Quote
SaitouSad Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Seeing how popular hero and how unpopular CF units are in Japan why would Bandai announce this before the VF-25S reissue? Just a guess, but maybe they're worried people would not buy the 25CF once they got the (much more awesome) 25S. Who's to say though, it they won't just squeeze in the 25S reissue announcement like next month, in time for a November release? Quote

Who's to say though, it they won't just squeeze in the 25S reissue announcement like next month, in time for a November release? Bandai doesn't release the toy and super/armored parts in the same month so the next release will have to be in December. No idea if it's gonna be the VF-25A or the S though. Quote
SaitouSad Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 gonna dread having to camp out for this as well... Quote
Chronocidal Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Actually, given how similar this one is to the VF-25G, I think there's little risk to producing this one. No specific extra parts, not even any new paint apps (since I'm pretty sure it uses the same paint patterns as the G as well). They're just like the Double Nuts and BoP YF-19 releases.. palette swaps with a minimum of effort, and using existing molds and production setups. Quote
TCracker Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 There is comething about the 25G head that piques my interest. One of the reason I have 2 of those. This 25A, I'm going to try to get multiples. Quote
Duymon Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) Welp... here we go again. HOnestly though I'm not worried about getting the 25A's though because I doubt many JP fans will be getting these in droves. Question is do I get 6 of them just like I have of the 171's?

typhoon Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 It would be cool to see this with armour parts, I really like the canon scheme - two for me thanks! Quote
pikashoo Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 I would've liked to see the YF-25 instead but this is still cool. hopefully won't be another pre-order headache Quote
anubis20 Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 I would've liked to see the YF-25 instead but this is still cool. hopefully won't be another pre-order headache Agreed! But this gives hope for the YF-25. Quote
Kurisama Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 ERMAGERD - YUSSSSS!!! Cannot wait. I lurve me some cannon fodder schemes! Every time I think "I'm done with valks", boom - another must buy... Quote
CF18 Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) One thing to consider if you want multiple: unlike the VF-171 CF, this one has "027" number markings. Edited June 21, 2013 by CF18 Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 I love the color. Hopefully I can snag one at HLJ. It's too risky for me to get Bandai stuff from anywhere else. Quote
raptormesh Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 I'll say if a Messiah can look good its going to be in that scheme. Thankfully the japanese fans are not big on CFs. Whoopie, this will be my only 25. Quote
xrentonx Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Waitaminute! How do we know it's not some shenanigans like last time? Remember that, guys? Toysdaily...grrrrrr! That said, if this is for reals then I'm down for two easy. Quote
zzgundam010 Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Waitaminute! How do we know it's not some shenanigans like last time? Remember that, guys? Toysdaily...grrrrrr! That said, if this is for reals then I'm down for two easy. The photos look legit this time. It's a cf so I guess we don't really have to stay up till 2 am to preorder, right? Quote
neoexcaliber Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 And I think most of us will stay away from NY's inflated prices this time. Quote
SilentCrossHairs Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 I really don't get hyped up on releases. But I must have this... I love non hero valks. To think, I was about to quit my second job. Well I'll quit after I get this... Quote
Loop Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Last time I mentioned that I was not done until the CF 25's come out some people on here were like "pfft, it won't happen". Now I can still hope for a RVF-171, but I am not sure if Bandai will learn from the 171 fiasco. Either way I am definitely getting a 25A or 3. Now I wonder if I over ordered the Alto re release. Quote
xrentonx Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) I remain skeptical until I see a few more sites posting about it. Did Bandai put it up on their website yet? (my Google-fu from a phone is weak) This is the best CF scheme Edited June 21, 2013 by xrentonx Quote
