Froy Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 Need to start reading the post instead of just looking for new pictures. Almost got a heart attack. Quote
anime52k8 Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 basically I want this plus the typical "U.N. Spacy" and kite roundels. Quote
danth Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Need to start reading the post instead of just looking for new pictures. Almost got a heart attack. And then you did the same thing to me by quoting those pics! Quote
Raptor One Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 VF-9! if only he could completely ignore profitability, he says. sounds like he really wants to do it but it's really unlikely. with how much valks cost i must admit i wouldn't buy a VF-9, but if it does get made it'd be really cool to see members post their pics of it on MW. Man, I would buy the f out of a VF-9 regardless of cost. Okay that's a slight exaggeration, but only slight. For all the people who felt a VF-4 was the holy grail of Macross toys, a VF-9 would be that for me. Back to this valk though that paint sheme without the logos actually looks nice. Reminds me of some of the Master File schemes, just a little more colorful. Quote
xrentonx Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Without logos is actually OK but I'm of the opinion that the major colors should be 2 or 3 different ones at most or it starts lookin like LGBT-Pride Valk (not that there's anything wrong with that other than being an eyesore ) Quote
Chronocidal Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Yeah, without any of the logos, I'd grab one. Even if they put the main 30th logo on the back, and the large ones on the wings. I just think the amount of random text all over the various surfaces is too much. Quote
raptormesh Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 I'm getting it for the 1982 print on the legs as it's the year I'm born in . Quote
Reïvaj Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Some photos by Arcadia for those of you who prefer the rainbow valk without the logos: Quote
EXO Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Ah nice. Thanks Reivaj! So the colored stripes are on there. Less of a headache! Quote
Gakken85 Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) Damn, it would be nice without that blue. But still, better than expected. Imagine if the blue was the same green as the vizor. Can somebody photoshop that? haha Edited June 13, 2013 by Gakken85 Quote
Mommar Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 You have a problem with the blue? It's that yellow that's horrible if you ask me. Quote
Cdisdope Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Some photos by Arcadia for those of you who prefer the rainbow valk without the logos: photo01_L.jpg photo03_L.jpg photo07_L.jpg photo08_L.jpg photo10_L.jpg Being how some of us were fooled by the Minmei guard prank.......I'm taking this with a grain of salt. Are these really Arcadia pics or is it photoshopped? Quote
raptormesh Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 You have a problem with the blue? It's that yellow that's horrible if you ask me. IMO get rid of them both. And then replace the white with grey. Ok? Ok. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) just so we can go full circle in the complaints, i like it with all the logos on and don't like it plain. i wish everything was tampo'd on. i kid, it really doesn't look better or worse either way. but i'd rather have the logos on bc and i don't have the skills to put on water slide or any stickers neatly.

Reïvaj Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) Don't worry guys, all the pics are legit. Now judge this one by yourself: Edited June 13, 2013 by Reïvaj Quote
Dark_Ghost Posted June 13, 2013 Author Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) はっ！？我が「VF-1J ３０周年記念塗装機」のWEB情報に記載漏れあり。脇の下パーツとか首裏パーツとかも入ります。ヨロシク。 It is confirmed there has options parts ^^ Edited June 13, 2013 by Dark_Ghost Quote
Reïvaj Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 It's been more than just confimed, the option parts have actually been shown: Quote
Dark_Ghost Posted June 13, 2013 Author Posted June 13, 2013 I know they had been shown, I posted photos of Amiami, but despite this, some still had doubts. Now things are clear Quote
Scream Man Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 So those photos without the Decals are official? That's pretty damned cool. I'm not sure if Ill sticker it up or not now! Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 I just realized the reason for the tricolor. It's Roy, Hikaru and Max's iconic colors. As usual no love for Kakizaki. They should've made it in a VF-1S instead of a J. Quote

GGemini Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 I like the shape of the UN Spacy kite in the back... will definitely leave mine sans decals Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 Noticed something else in the last pic with the full set of parts The valk is TV white whit TV shade gray intake covers and thrusters but the option part urr....neck thing cover with and without the seat and one of the display adapters is DYRL shade dark gray and AMM-1 missiles are DYRL style also. Looks like Arcadia is kit bashing the pics with leftovers. Quote
Dark_Ghost Posted June 17, 2013 Author Posted June 17, 2013 So those photos without the Decals are official?Yes, they come from the Arcadia site: http://arcadia.ac/macross30th/diary/02/index.php http://arcadia.ac/macross30th/diary/03/index.php Quote
anime52k8 Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 What do we do with the small L acrylic stand? name tag? Quote
Shaorin Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 (edited) I'm getting it for the 1982 print on the legs as it's the year I'm born in . JAN. '82 b-day here... interesting way of looking at it, never really thought about that. still, don't think i've much interest in owning this variant myself though... Edited June 18, 2013 by Shaorin Quote
NeoverseOmega Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 (edited) Y'know - for the most part I'm congenitally opposed to the whole concept of a rainbow valk . . . . but minus all the sticker graffiti the lines and flow of the design are surprisingly well done. The sheer fact that you can put a big blaring kite emblem on the back surrounded by rainbow streamers that turns the chest into a tuxedo coat and get all of those curves to flow into each other in all three modes is pretty darn impressive. Okay I still don't like the dark rainbow-bright color scheme, but if Tenjin was told he had to use all of those colors, he pulled it off with panache. What can I say- my funds are such that I can only pick and choose the most essential valks to add to my collection, but this really is about as good as it is possible for a full spectrum rainbow nascross valk to look. Edited June 18, 2013 by NeoverseOmega Quote
Astro_BS-AS Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Hi everyone ! I just love this Valkyrie... I´ve already preordered one.... Just like NeoverseOmega said, the flow of the lines in the different modes are a joy to see... Just look at the backpack and the tip of the rudders, or the wings ! With all the stickers it was kind of a mess, but naked its quite beatiful.... Well, now to wait. Let´s hope not much. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 I think the tuxido thing was just a coincidence that someone point it out here. Quote
