Tober Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I can see VF-2SS as possible, and VF-0 v2 plus SDF-1 TV as remotely possible. How about branching off to other things? They can do a much better Legioss than the other 2 recent offers, but I think the world has enough Legioss for now. Brave Gokin showed a Orguss prototype 3 years ago and then absolutely nothing, so may be Yamato can take a crack at it. Some Mospeada love would be nice. Griffin (Flight type) from Patlabor would be nice too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xrentonx Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I agree on MOSPEADA. I do not yet own a proper Legios and Tread. I only have the two Beagle releases. For Macross, it has to be the VF-2SS for me or pick up Macross the Ride license and do those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoverseOmega Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Here's the mad list spitting out of my fevered brain: V2. YF-19 (It's gonna happen) Considerably improved VF-0 a, s, and D (likely I think) Considerably improved SV-51 T.V. SDF-1 (I think reasonably likely because of the success of the DYRL version - of course the Macross the first version would be easiest) Varauta Mechs (Fz-109 especially). I know they don't like doing enemy mecha, but these are pretty sweet variable fighters. . . . Battle 7 (someday I can see them completing the whole host of transformable Macross battleships available to them). And I'm sayin' it because no-one else is likely to: Variable Gluag! Another cool variable enemy to take on your collection. . . . Now since I've already treaded into the valley of the unlikely but not entirely out of the question: V2. Escaflowne Mospeada Legioss, Tread, and Ride Armors for Yellow and Fuke Orguss and Nickick VF-2S and VF-2J Just to delve into a level of stupid obscurity, I'm going to say Dorvak and Galvion. This is beyond never gonna happen just 'cuz I can go there . . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Courfid Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Has there ever been a really good Queadluun-Rau/Rhea? I would love one of those as detailed as the VF-4G in 1/60. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ultraman zoffy Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Yamato has done the research and decided that making a TV SDF-1 or even a Glaug could never possibly have enough appeal among Macross fans to sell well and justify production. In the meantime, those same marketing geniuses just know THIS thing will be a massive hit and totally worth making: ... good looking out, Yamato. Pfft.

3D-Brainx Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) Someone said already, I guess the next in logic would be to complete the Macross 7 valks, there's still a lot to be done there, at least 3 vf-11, 3 vf-17 and the vf-5000. Personally, I would love v.2 Macross Zero valks and a vf-0D Edited August 23, 2012 by 3D-Brainx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurisama Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I'd love an official Yamato release of it - means I wouldn't have to make it!

3D-Brainx Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Does someone ever made a list of "missing 1/60 stuff"?? Not talking about wanted v2, but actual unmade 1/60 toys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twoducks Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Vinyl figures of the last two Sound Force battroids anybody? Cheaper to make than a full transforming robot and a great way to finish the trio. Add vinyl fighter modes into the mix and you get two perfect twopacks!!! Hello?? Anybody?? Come on!!! I’m serious. CHEAP, fast and great for completists!!... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 COnsidering how little it would take to modify the current VF-17 I don't see why making a whole new vinyl version would be a good idea. Maybe the Maxl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoexcaliber Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 How about a vf-19 in vf-x 2 scheme? I think they did release one in 1/72 but a 1/60 would be better. A VF-0D would be nice too. We need more blue mechas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Actually, I'm not entirely sure about the VF-17T. I still want one, but there's a bit of work to be done redesigning the nose section. The head will be really easy to replace by comparison. Now, that's not to say that there isn't already room in that cockpit area for two figures. They might be able to pull off some VF-1D style rearrangement of things, and wedge two seats into the existing cockpit area. But either way, the canopy and cockpit need to be changed a bit. Given the way the VF-17 is made, they might be able to get away with changing only a few parts, and not having to change the transformation at all. It'll need a new cockpit section and a new nosecone most likely. Whether it'd also need a new chest section with a lengthened center to cover the larger cockpit, I don't know, but it looks likely. I need to watch scenes of the VF-17T again though... I almost thought it used a VF-171 style nosecone fold, because of the longer nose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeyondTheGrave Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Probably stuff form Macross the first. One could easily milk the molds of the vf-1 and all that is needed is paint and head changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mog Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) So, the series is called Macross. It's about this big, hunking alien ship that lands in the Pacific. The humans study it and repair it. Make a crapload of technology based on and in response to it. It has this infamous maneuver called the Daedalus Attack that was used umpteen billion times in the series. . . . . . .And yet we haven't had an official toy update of the iconic mothership in over 25 years.
