Mommar Posted August 26, 2012 Posted August 26, 2012 I'd say that heat shield is either a clip on or they go exposed like the 22's.
Astralith Posted August 26, 2012 Posted August 26, 2012 My only fondness for Robotech is that if not for it I would not have come to know Macross. I would not have bothered to read the subtitles and come to love the series and I would probably be into Battletech. I hate my late ex-girlfriend but she introduced me to my wife. Same thing.

Ha, you know what? Same goes for me - on both counts! I'd say that heat shield is either a clip on or they go exposed like the 22's. No - no, no expose! It rhymes:D
jenius Posted August 26, 2012 Posted August 26, 2012 The problem with the the SDF-1 TV version's wider appeal outside of Japan is that that appeal is negated by things like ignorance of toys only released in Japan, unwillingness or apprehension related to purchasing gray market international goods, fear of purchasing unsupported goods with substantial MSRPs, and issues of similar natures. This is compounded by the SDF-1's natural lack of demand caused by its being a ship and not a fighter. I still would LOVE a TV SDF-1 but I understand it's unlikely. I guess with the new VF-17 toy, new VF-19 toys, and a VF-4 in the works Yamato is in no rush.
daisuki Posted August 26, 2012 Posted August 26, 2012 I think about the vf-5000 in a view to producing them on the vf-x licence or the M7 licence or the both licence Or another endless repaint of vf-1 :rolleyes:
anime52k8 Posted August 26, 2012 Posted August 26, 2012 I would want a VF-11 Jamming Birds (yeah I know it's way harder due to the twin seat thingy and heat shield), and a v.2 of the VF-0 and YF-19. I have yet to get myself some Yamato stuff from Mac Zero and Plus. I still think the best route would be a heat shield that's isn't as large and bulbous as the lineart depiction but is fully integrated into the fighter mode, and then a second clip on shield that gives you a show accurate option.

Chronocidal Posted August 28, 2012 Posted August 28, 2012 I'm tempted to buy the kit just to get a spare VF-1D head to put on my VT-1 for fun.
kamadoma Posted August 28, 2012 Posted August 28, 2012 With the reissues of the Super/Strike parts confirmed, I hope we can count on the VF1J M&M reissue next year!
Uxi Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) They need to do low-viz of everything in 1/60 starting with: VF-1 v2, VF-19, VF-22, VF-17, VF-4 Edited August 31, 2012 by Uxi
Mommar Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 How do you define "low viz? The VF-1 has had three so far between the original 1S low Viz, the VFX and now Cavaliers. Gamlin's 22 is essentially low viz. All 17's are low viz technically. The only VF-4 we have now is practically low viz. What sort of paint scheme are you looking for really?
mechaninac Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 You are correct, of course; but when most think of how a low viz should essentially look, they think of the LE 1/48 low viz (to this day, the crown jewel of my collection). Something like this would be really cool...
Radd Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 I'd love; VA-3 Invader VF-11 Jamming Birds VF-11 Full Armour VF-1C from Dynamite 7 VF-9 Cutlass VF-14 Vampire Battle 7 Battle Frontier Battle Galaxy Battle Pod Of course, with the price of Valks lately due to the dollar to yen issue, I'd be just as happy if Yamato put out stuff I could easily pass on for a while.
mechaninac Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 VF-5000 ? If I had to hazzard a guess, that would be mine as well... as far as truly new stuff is concerned.
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 I'd like to see a low viz VF-19F and a VF-19E. Anyone want to see the VF-19S in proto colors(light blue, red and white trim)?
UN Spacy Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 Hopefully the Britai tv figure will be successful enough that we'll get Kamjin and Exedol.
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 I want a 1/60 VF-11 with BIG ASS TAIL FINS as option parts.
wm cheng Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 (edited) I would like a 1/60 VF-2SS please. Edited September 4, 2012 by wm cheng
Shaorin Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 (edited) So what's next from Yamato? your guess is as good as mine. whatever may come to be, the only certainty, alas, is that there's no way in hell that i'll be able to afford any of it... I want a 1/60 VF-11 with BIG ASS TAIL FINS as option parts. i want a re-designed -11 1/60 with BIG ASS TAIL FINS fully integrated into the transformation, hell or high-water. c'mon Yammie, work that magic of yours!! Edited September 4, 2012 by Shaorin
mechaninac Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 With prices increasing about 1000 Yen, or more, with every subsequent release, and the ever weaker Dollar, I'm afraid you have a point...
GU-11 Posted September 5, 2012 Posted September 5, 2012 I'm a man of simple taste. Gimme a 1/60 VF-2SS and a reissued VT-1 Super Ostrich with non-exploding shoulwer hinges, and I'm a happy camper.
MILKAUTICO Posted September 5, 2012 Posted September 5, 2012 VA-3.VA-3.VA-3.VA-3.VA-3.VA-3.VA-3.VA-3.VA-3.VA-3.VA-3.VA-3.VA-3!!!!!!!! WE ALL! VA-3!!!
MikeRoz Posted September 5, 2012 Posted September 5, 2012 (edited) Just one more chance with the M&M. I was late to the game and picked up my 1/48 M&M a matter of months before the 1/60 versions were announced. At that point it didn't look like Yamato was going to do every imaginable paint scheme like they ended up doing. I thought there was a decent chance M&M would never get released in that form factor. Even if they did, I assumed the price would go down once the market was saturated with the 1/60s, like they were with the 1/48s. Boy did I end up being wrong on both counts. Edited September 5, 2012 by MikeRoz
ultraman zoffy Posted September 5, 2012 Posted September 5, 2012 I'm down with an M&M reissue... I wouldn't buy another set, but having paid $400 for the pair I have and knowing that a reissue would be about that same price shipped makes me feel good that I basically broke even.
danth Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 I'm pretty sure a Super-O reissue will follow the ElintSeeker reissue, and then you guys can see my Super-O face.
Black Valkyrie Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 If I had to hazzard a guess, that would be mine as well... as far as truly new stuff is concerned. Well the VF-5000 did appear in MD7.
master of macross Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 SDF 1 1/3000 TV DESTROID PHALANX VF0S ARMORED (it's a dream, it's amazing for me)
