Valkyrie addict Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 The VF-1S DYRL Fokker is a WF exclusive? huh... guess that makes more sense. Then I really demand a cool box design. Quote
Reïvaj Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 Sorry, wrong thread, I was talking about the Bodolza stuff Quote
Valkyrie Magnus Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 (edited) I have 2 VF-1s SDFM (1 with a Roy fig and another with a Hikaru fig) and 1 DYRL Roy VF-1S. 3 is enough for me. even so I still am tempted to get another lol Edited July 27, 2013 by Valkyrie Magnus Quote
Murphy Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 Yea I have those 3 v.2 vf-1s focker colors aswell, but I preordered the Arcadia one. I don't know what I'm going to do with it. I keep telling myself that the stand is worth it, but I recently been collecting the mighty block stand #1 and I like those a lot better(if the new stand is anything like the yf-21/sv-51), but if me purchasing another vf-1 supports them then I will buy at least one so other variants will come out.

sreichma Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 boarding pilot figure......wonder if that means a pilot climbing up a ladder or something? I'm sure if it has water slide decals it also has the standard adhesive sheat as well. I pre ordered 2, 1 from NY and 1 from HLJ. HLJ was only 140 vs 168 at NY. Hopefully it also brings a possible reboot of the box design etc. Quote
Lolicon Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 It's been known since the 30th Anniversary VF-1J was announced that the VF-1's were all coming with water slide decals now. Hey, no need to be snarky about it. Just asking a question. Not all of us have the time to read every single thread and news post about these toys. And I definitely haven't kept up with the 30th anniversary VF-1J, since it's hideous and I won't be buying one. Quote

ARCADIA marketing staff; please refer to BANDAI 1/100 VF-1 HI-METAL and 2013 1/72 VF-1 PLAMODEL for ideal examples to aim for, IMHO... Edited July 27, 2013 by Shaorin Quote

What shipping method did you choose for the NY pre-order, is it included in the price you gave? Just curious. Quote

A really great box art just definitely adds to the charm of the whole damn thing. I hope Arcadia can come through for us with this. Quote

It's $153.98 at HLJ vs $141.69 at NY, obviously not including shipping.

Dobber Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 I ordered from NY and selected ECO registered. Only takes about 2 weeks to arrive. Total cost is $158 shipped. Chris Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 maybe i should try NY and order by boat... anybody try the boat option.... ever? Quote

technoblue Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 Sorry, major n00b at this. . . what is the difference between the VF-1S Roy DRYL and TV version? I was going back and forth between the images and couldn't find any. Oh, I am too! I'm starting my collection again after some time away. I have one SV-51 Nora scheme and one VF-1S v.2 1/60 DYRL Roy scheme. I've been eagerly reading all of the Arcadia news on the forums and I plan to preorder the YF-19 when it is available. That said, my knowledge is limited. The line art is fantastic, but I was under the impression that Yamato used a hybrid cockpit design? Will that change at all under the Arcadia brand? As I understand it, the main differences in the Yamato valks were: * The color of the toy: DYRL gray vs TV white * The color of the gummy pilot: DYRL jumpsuit vs TV jumpsuit I may have missed some... Other variants have more obvious differences, such as the heat shield and the Jolly Roger on the VF-1A. Quote
Dobber Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 (edited) Toy-wise the only differences will be an off white - very light gray color for the DYRL VF-1's and the pilots will have the DYRL flight suits. While the tv versions will be white and have the tv style pilots. "Actual" differences between the 2 would also include a different cockpit and the redesigned canopy and canopy frames. Mechanical looking hands for the movie version while the TV version would have the rounded cartoonie hands. The DYRL canopies have a "lip" with vents at the front where the canopy meets the nose seen here: http://www.macross2.net/m3/macrossdyrl/vf-1a-fastpack/vf-1-dyrl-cockpit2.gif Where as the tv version was smooth and blended. Here is a thread that shows the difference between all 3 versions (tv, movie, and Macross the first comic) scroll down to post #80 to see all 3. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=34601&page=3&hl=%2Bdyrl+%2Bcanopy#entry895486 Image from above thread: image.jpg Oh, I am too!

Ignacio Ocamica Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 Another difference is that the TV VF-1S has black arrows on the head while the DYRL? VF-1S has yellow arrows. Quote
SuperSenpai Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 The DYRL off-white and the TV bright-white was a bit of an arbitrary distinction if you ask me. From I can recall, the VF-1S in the TV show was often rendered in a grayish or dull-white tone, not the bright white used on the toy. Quote
Vi-RS Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 (edited) Overall the most distinctive difference on the toy is the blocky hand in dyrl vs rounded hand in tv. Off white body VS white body Graphite "black" vs Gray on feet, knee joints, intake covers and stand mounts (Except the CF TV has its unique brownish scheme) Pilot suits The rest goes on the paint scheme in tv and movie except an unique 1A head design for each.

Guest davidwhangchoi Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 Graphite vs Gray on feet, knee joints, intake covers and stand mounts (Except the CF TV has its unique brownish scheme) i don't see this on my vf-1s dyrl vs tv. only see graphite on the low viz and max weathering Quote
Vi-RS Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 i don't see this on my vf-1s dyrl vs tv. only see graphite on the low viz and max weathering Sorry I meant the darker gray almost black in dyrl. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 (edited) yeah! sort of bluish grey for the dryl and blacker grey for the tv (Sorry Vi_RS, mistook the photos as the feet being black) anyways, i think i got the knowledge of the graphite grey from pm'ing you about the weathered max you have a while back haha from Valkyrie addicts post http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q288/cyclosporine/VF-1S-DYRLFP04_zps48b165d4.jpg Edited July 27, 2013 by davidwhangchoi Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 hmm that's weird, i noticed the pics for the tv version w/ option parts the feet and intake covers look black but on the non option part tv photos it's grey. (i haven't opened my option parts tv still sealed in bubble wrap) http://www.anime-export.com/product/9158 hmm... maybe theses are prototype pics? Quote
technoblue Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 Since my original reply to his post may have been missed... Forgot to include the different hands also for the toys Chris Thanks, Dobber (and everyone else). I thought I was mixing up some of those details. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 A member once ask me about it, here's a pic I posted for him: Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 Thanks Valkyrie addict for the clarification. after all, i used your photos for comparions Quote
Dobber Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 IIRC the the forearm panels have a different cross section too.... the part that touches the shoulders when the arm is straight...like for fighter mode. One is flat, while the other has a slight U shape. Chris Quote
grymg Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 Is this how it's going to come, then we waterslide the rest? Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 Nope, it will come tampoed like always, but we will get the regular decal sheet and a waterslide version. Like the weathered version had. Quote
blackconvoy_D01 Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 I wanted a dyrl roy. I ended up getting a bum dyrl hikaru so this is most welcome. Quote
Vi-RS Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 I guess the Hikaru's 1S or 1A is coming next from Arcadia since they display it in WF. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=39282&p=1065187 Quote

Pedro2k6 Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 oh, yeah! the Hiky is an "S" browsing through the other photos. http://ameblo.jp/arcadiaac/image-11581897063-12625882478.html Its look like we can storage the missile inside the display stand. Nice touch Quote
