Scyla Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 I hope the release them separately. I only need Mirias VF-1J to complement my Macross 7 collection. The only thing I need then is advice how to paint the white stripes black. Has anyone experience if there is a already mixed Tamiya black in a spray can that matches the black from the Yamato VF-1s and what coat I should use to get a nice blend with the Arcaida finish. I'm curious about the comment on the VF-0D since it was heavily hinted by Arcadia. I Mr. K trying to distract us because we all know it will be a VF-0D and they want to gain back the moment of surprise. Or is something totally different in the making. An updated Marcoss Zero line made the most sense to me because they need to be redone/there is an actual Valkyrie missing. Let's see what other VFs where present in the shows/OVAs/movies (sans Frontier) that haven't gotten a release yet. There would be the Sound Force Valkyries and the VF-14 from Plus/7 and the stuff from Macross 2 also the VF-5000 and whale hunter Valkyries from Dynamite 7 and the X-9. The YF-19 is in the works so they might continue the Plus line. If this is true then Arcadia could release an updated YF-21/VF-11 or a new VF-14 or X-9. So it is a new YF-21 then? Quote
CoreyD Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Has anyone experience if there is a already mixed Tamiya black in a spray can that matches the black from the Yamato VF-1s and what coat I should use to get a nice blend with the Arcaida finish. From my experience the YamatArcadia finish is somewhere between semi-gloss and flat. Out of the bottle semi-gloss and flat doesn't match up right, so you have to do a 50/50 mixture between the two.

skullmilitia Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 From the response it sounds like the Chronicle link stayed with Yamato. Quote
jvmacross Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 From the response it sounds like the Chronicle link stayed with Yamato. ...and went down with the sinking ship Too bad.....there could have been some variants released that may not have sold-well as general releases...like the Alaska base VF-1A, Millia's M7 VF-1J, Millia's VF-17S......perhaps Arcadia can still partner up with someone else for some exclusives Thanks for asking the tough questions!

YF-29 Durandal Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 From the response it sounds like the Chronicle link stayed with Yamato. Will they be making the VF-X-4? Quote
jvmacross Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Will they be making the VF-X-4? Yes...and then they will promptly announce another "name change".... Quote
YF-29 Durandal Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Yes...and then they will promptly announce another "name change".... What? Quote
jvmacross Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 What? Basically, Arcadia needs to produce valks with mass-appeal (thus a YF-19 reboot, VF-1 re-releases of fan-favorites), at least for now, so they do not repeat the mistakes made by Yamato......a VF-X-4 would be awesome, however, releasing something like that now may drive them into BK....We need them to stick around for a while as they are the only company that has the proven capacity AND (perhaps more importantly) the love of the franchise to be able to do it justice.....as they say...all good things come to those who have the cash to pay for it...or something like that....

I see. Quote
skullmilitia Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 There will be more VF-4 repaints at some point. They have the tooling for it. But I would suspect from MrK's responses, new models will be 1, maybe 2 per year. The rest being fillers like VF-1 releases. I think the future holds hope for just about anything. It all hinges on current items selling, and licensing agreements. I am beginning to think the reason we didn't get the VF-4 FB2012 edition Is because there's hardly anything licensed from FB2012. Probably had nothing to with the whole "big west says there isn't a battroid shown, so they won't let them make it" Quote
Jasonc Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 I'm confident there will be some good stuff on the way from Arcadia. I'd really like to see them collaborate with Hasegawa, and do the Minmay Guard, Paris and Moon act, as well as a VA-3, and make it able to play in the water, LOL. Quote

As much as I don't really care for the VA-3, I'd probably pick one up just to show support for my favorite Macross-enabler who will in turn take my money to develop more slu*tty dolls!

MacrossJunkie Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 I don't like the VA-3 either, but I'd buy one as well just to add to the variety of my collection. For that same reason, I'd also buy a VF-9, VF-14, VF-5000, any of the Varauta fighters or even the Feios. The only things I wouldn't buy are the Sound Force valks. My desire for variety and having all variants can't overcome my disdain for those things... Quote
lancalot Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 I wished that they release everything from macross the ride....the minor adjustment and repaints look so good and it includes the whole range of fighters in the series... Quote
xrentonx Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Macross The Ride would be amazing and put me in the poor house! What a way to go though Quote
skullmilitia Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 I asked about Macross the Ride. Although I'm sure it will be the same response about licensing. Still, make us all poor. Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Yes! I would especially love the VF-19 ACTIVE Nothung, YF-25 Paladin, and that custom VF-0 which I can't remember the name for right now. Quote

Falcon18 Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Good future for all us macross fans! Nice hole in the wallets too Quote
Sandman Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 MrK already mentiond the VF-9 has too much anime magic for accurate proportions Besides, the VF-9 is ugly. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 (edited) hey sandman i think he answered you about the 11c (no plans) and armor https://twitter.com/Mrk_arcadia/status/392450134509756416 Edited October 22, 2013 by davidwhangchoi Quote
skullmilitia Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 Which translates to? There's no plans to reissue the 11C, MrK would like to do the armor in the future. ( sounds like a big, big, big maybe) Nothing to take in as being a release anytime soon from the sound of it. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 (edited) good morning (east standard time) One wish for arcadia? Mr. K has wishes too: But wants to do a proto monster now (he makes some references to M7 sibil and protodeviln joking interacting w/ some tweets also joking about the pilot of 19a ravens) he's asked bout about the original Monster in 1/150 as done by Wave as 1/60 scale would be impossible his twitter friend Nemo: (that he talks to everyday) "use your authority somehow in arcadia to do it." because it's non transforming and do at a reasonable scale. Mr. K: I'm simply an office worker and do not have the authority to approve these projects. but wants to do a proto monster now... hmmm how do i find a way to do it? sv-51, cutless and proto monster.... someday... adieu Edited October 22, 2013 by davidwhangchoi Quote
close313 Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 Oh my Proto Monster, that would be a treat! I always love the creepy extending fingers in place of the rocket launchers. Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 (edited) ...1/48 scale YF-19, and YF-21 box set with all of the trimmings/missles/parts/packs/boosters as well as included Figma style figures of both pilots. You said wish, right? edit: Just thought of how big the box would be...... Edited October 22, 2013 by ChaoticYeti Quote
Roy's Blues Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 VF-0D is "dangerous for new company to do, but there is motivation for it" So don't hold your breath. Bummer. I was hoping for a Shin blue and a gray CF version. Quote
skullmilitia Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 It's starting to make sense, the picture with the red ghost, the blue VF-0D and the Sheryl was meant to mean Max and Miriya. Perhaps the VF-0D is just another year down the road, perhaps the third new item? Quote
Mommar Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 It's starting to make sense, the picture with the red ghost, the blue VF-0D and the Sheryl was meant to mean Max and Miriya. Perhaps the VF-0D is just another year down the road, perhaps the third new item? Red ghost, blue plane... maybe. But Sheryl? That doesn't make any sense to me. Quote
Nerd-linger Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 Red ghost, blue plane... maybe. But Sheryl? That doesn't make any sense to me. I seem to recall the Sheryl figure being in a wedding dress, possibly referring to M&M being married? Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 (edited) i think that's reaching a bit... i do feel the vf-0d is a strong candidate but the hint Mr.K gave... it's a rare craft. hmmm wonder what is considered rare that makes sense business-wise to produce? so far he confirmed the next new mold not considered a repaint or re-release: "no" means he wants to do but in the future not now yf-21v2 no vf-14 no cutless "9" no sv-51 v.2 no vf-11c v.2 no vf-2ss no phalanx no monster no koieng monster no vf-4 2012 no (any others that he said "not now" too) ??? so hmm wonder what it'll be...
