Reïvaj Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 Looking at some new pictures posted, looks like the fighter mode is being compromised by the mecha. For the mecha to be short, now in fighter model the legs have to be extended from the knee joints. It changes the flow line in fighter mode. I probably don't know what I'm talking about, and hope I'm wrong. That's just like the VF-19's by Yamato. I don't think it's been a problem at all. Quote
Chronocidal Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 Honestly, I've never cared for the VF-19's knee joints, I think it's one of the weaker features due to the way they work. They have to extend out for fighter, and collapse for battroid, but they didn't try to disguise the exposed knee joint when it's extended. It just winds up looking like a big black empty gap in the leg. It's not terrible, but it makes me wonder why they didn't paint it so it was hidden better. Really, it's the exact same situation with the VF-17. Quote
Gakken85 Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 (edited) Anybody see the main Arcadia site? http://arcadia.ac/sp/wf2013s/index.php If you can get around all the b00bs. Edited July 16, 2013 by Gakken85 Quote

Gakken85 Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 Sorry. I dont read every post. haha. Man their site is creepy. Doll parts everywhere. Quote
skullmilitia Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 It's Japan man, the only place you can make under-age looking dolls with a name that's half of "pedophilia" And get away with it. If they just spent as much time on boobs as they would a 30th VT-1, we'd be somewhere. Quote
Chronocidal Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 Completely off the subject.. but did anyone see this?? https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BPRXJ-5CIAEE_QA.jpg:large Quote

It's Japan man, the only place you can make under-age looking dolls with a name that's half of "pedophilia" And get away with it. Hey, with that logic "hemophilia" would be a perversion...

r_hunter85 Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 (edited) It is! Exciting! looking at the pic it seems to be 3D render. Unless the resolution on the pic itself is just terrible. But according to google translate, , there will be some kind of explanation tomorrow. Edited July 16, 2013 by r_hunter85 Quote

derex3592 Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 I'm sorry---but I've always thought that was the most RETARDED looking ship in all of Macross. The TV fortress was much better...like a hollowed out asteroid or something that they made into a home base. Quote

Lulz ZOMG They got the Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors license!!!! I barely remember that. hahaha I bet they just got some dead stock of the Biollante toy and moved some stuff around: Edited July 16, 2013 by Gakken85 Quote
Shaorin Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 Shown weeks ago and that CAD still looks Beautiful... They got the watermelon license!!!!! YOW!! they finally got the money-losing license!! ZOMG i cannot wait for my killer plants from outer space toys for $500+ USD a pop!!!! Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 that's an awesome ship. i love it. Quote

The TV fortress was much better...like a hollowed out asteroid or something that they made into a home base. This thing? It never looked like anything to me aside from blue. lol The inside of this ship was the only cool part. I prefer the Do You Remember Watermelon? ship. At least, it looks like SOMETHING. lol Its exciting to see bad guy stuff! ..and ships for that matter. I'm really curious to see where they're going with this. Quote
skullmilitia Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 Better mean we are getting a Regult pod, Or a useful enemy mecha, I really have no need for a giant watermelon ship. Quote
r_hunter85 Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 Better mean we are getting a Regult pod, Or a useful enemy mecha, I really have no need for a giant watermelon ship. Agreed. I hope that's what this means too Quote
Gakken85 Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 There is absolutely zero chance they will make a giant ship before they test the water with sales on enemy ships. Too risky. Quote

I'm curious where you live where under-aged girls have quadruple G tits. If they just spent as much time on boobs as they would a 30th VT-1, we'd be somewhere. ok, that's... something...

Graham Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 Acadia definitely needs a separate site or page for their Macross stuff. Their current home page is definitely NSFW. I don't even dare open it at home when the wife and son are around. Heck, I won't even open it on my phone's browser when there's other people nearby. Graham Quote
skullmilitia Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 I'm curious where you live where under-aged girls have quadruple G tits. ok, that's... something... Not gonna stray off topic, but the Sonico statues are not very Adult age looking, there's more to women then T&A. And the VT-1 was a joke, a joke about reissues being reissued again as a reissue.

Guest davidwhangchoi Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 Yeah, i got shocked by opening their page, never again... lesson learned, i'll just wait till someone post pics or links of Arcadia news here. Quote

It just winds up looking like a big black empty gap in the leg. It's not terrible, but it makes me wonder why they didn't paint it so it was hidden better. Really, it's the exact same situation with the VF-17. Except that the VF-17 (wich I have here) has sliding panels to fill the gaps. "Mostly", I admit, but it has them. And even in Battroid, you can extend the legs all but one "click" and use the panel to fill the gap, adding 3/4" to the height... I love it. And the VF-19 (wich I do have here too) does not look that bad from below in Fighter mode... I think it´s all in likings Quote
Chronocidal Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 Oh absolutely, I don't think those knees really detract from the VF-19. I do think they look funny when bent in battroid though, they've just got a very weirdly shaped internal mechanism. I much prefer the old fashioned moving kneecaps like the VF-1 and VF-11 had, and I always thought the VF-19 would have the same thing. Oh well. Anyway, yeah, sorry to drag the subject off to the watermelon patch. I can't wait to see more of those missile packs. Quote
Tober Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 In the pic of the YF-19 prototype shots, did anyone mention what the red thing that's there in the middle with the VF-0D and Sheryl doll is? pic Quote
Loop Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 Yeah I am way excited about this release. Even more so than the Alto YF-29. I am soooo glad they are giving us the hard points that this thing deserves. I wonder why bandai left the hard points off of all the releases they made? The VF-25 has hard points, but the toys are missing them and the VF-171 you had to buy the Super Parts and swap the wings. I think Arcadia will do fine if they pace the releases and maybe hit better price points. If they can do that I think the audience will be bigger. I pay for the things love, so I can't be too bothered if this thing is going to cost a lot. In the pic of the YF-19 prototype shots, did anyone mention what the red thing that's there in the middle with the VF-0D and Sheryl doll is? pic Not sure, it looks like a ghost to me. Bandai has sold the Frontier license before, is there any chance Arcadia is getting it? they keep dropping those damn hints. I hope they wait though, as I spent a ton so far on DX renewals lol. Quote

Hmmm... A red ghost huh..? In the middle of Macross Plus... The Ghost X-9. I think you might be on to something there. Edited July 17, 2013 by Tober Quote
