Gakken85 Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) Yeah that's what I'm thinking haha. They could do some Mikimoto Box art, and have him sign it. Would be boss That would have been superior to the 30th IMO. Edited January 10, 2014 by Gakken85 Quote
skullmilitia Posted January 10, 2014 Author Posted January 10, 2014 I sent a tweet to Mr. K about the macross the first idea. He replied: "美樹本さんのVF-1ですね。それも手かもしれませんね。ありがとうございます！ （ゴメン。日本語以外が解らないの）" It is VF-1 of this Miki's. It even I might hand. Thank you! (I'm sorry. Non-Japanese do not understand) Translation doesn't seem correct. Dont read/write/speak Japanese but maybe what he meant was he too, wants the VF-1J in Macross The First. maybe.. I cleaned it up a little.. It is VF-1 of "Miki's book. It also thank you. I might hand! I can't translate the last word correctly but it just sounds like he likes it. I would assume with any scheme, it depends on acquiring the license. Quote
aaajin Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) And all of a sudden, Im all hyped with the idea of schemes upon schemes on the VF-1 line! For Valk-only release, Minmay Guard Paris is on top of my list! And for Super Pack Release : Blue Rose and Enigma! Wouldn't be such a looker without the Packs Edited January 10, 2014 by aaajin Quote

I would assume with any scheme, it depends on acquiring the license. Would be awesome to have Miki and Mr. K working together, plus it would give a lot of exposure to Miki's work. Maybe even include a comic? I should do marketing for toy companies! Edited January 10, 2014 by Gakken85 Quote
Scyla Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 The only wish for a VF-1 scheme is the VF-1J Miria Custom from Macross 7... ...but since Skullmilita said no hero schemes in the first post I have nothing to contribute to this thread. An Arcadia V3 VF-1 from Macross the First would be cool. Quote
wmkjr Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) I don't have any non hero paints to suggest but here's what I would like ( in no order of preference): 1. Desert camo 2. Sundowners -ish paint scheme with gull grey (or similar) 3. Navy blue grey with gull grey bottom ( Like early WW2 navy type or VF-0D) 4. VE-1 in stealth black 5. VT-1 in a different high visibility paint scheme (Maybe a yellow type, since blue and red is already covered ) They should make one that looks like the JSDF aircraft camo paint scheme.

Nerd-linger Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) I was able to put together the various (non hero) squadron schemes from the "Variable Fighter Master File: VF-1 Valkyrie Volume 1 & 2" books. I think some of these would be great start for non-licensed schemes. I wish we knew if Hasegawa schemes were even an option, because if they aren't due to licensing that would change this poll dramatically Edited January 10, 2014 by Nerd-linger Quote
EXO Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 If it helps I might hand a M1st VF-1J also.... no, tell Mr.K that I'd definitely hand one of those. Id' hand TWO with both hands! Quote
aaajin Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Or maybe he meant : Stop talking to me on twitter and talk to the hand Quote
wmkjr Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Thanks Nerd-linger for the pics. I don't have the master files books so didn't know the other paint schemes. Now it's harder to choose. I'd go with 5,10,25,26, and 29 Quote
CoreyD Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Changing my vote slightly, Sonic Birds and Black Aces for sure! and I'm actually curious how feasible another hasegawa team up would be. I wonder what Mr. K says? Quote
bigkid24 Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 1) Minmay Guard Moon 2) Minmay Guard Paris 3) Low Vis in gray to go with my 1/60 Thunderhammer 4) Some kind of digital camo scheme 5) I think on the old forums someone made a MacrossWorld scheme for a VF-1. I can't seem to find a pic of it at the moment but I think it was a good scheme. Just use the UN Spacy kites instead of the MW logo at the time. 6) Chara Works 1/144 Zentran scheme or the green Joons color scheme 7) Macross 7 episode 15? the carnival episode with all the privately owned VF-1s, there is a VF-1J that is essentially a Hikaru 1J but with a blue stripe instead of red. Blue Roses Quote

I wish we knew if Hasegawa schemes were even an option, because if they aren't due to licensing that would change this poll dramatically This is a good start,thanks for scanning so many, but it isn't all of the schemes from the books. My number one pick would be the SVF-64 scheme on page 105 of the second book in the Insurrection of Fitz Roy section. But of the others in that list I'd pick #4, #15, #12 and #19.

David Hingtgen Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Pic needed for "Macross the First" Hikaru -1J. C'mon, that's just awesome: (this is MW's own Jefuemon's custom of the Hasegawa kit) Quote

C'mon, that's just awesome: (this is MW's own Jefuemon's custom of the Hasegawa kit) Yes, it is awesome. but it really needs the redesigned head to be right. Also, I'd like it if they could get some Bandai "So white it's slightly purple" white plastic to mold it in. Quote
jenius Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 I really dig what was done recently with the Bandai YF-29 Isamu. Why not a VF-1 Isamu, a VF-1 Guld, a VF-1 Ozma, a VF-1 Brera, and a VF-1 Basara? Quote
Falcon18 Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Wow, thanks for the pics Nerd-linger. From that, I'd pick 6,12,15,26 and a cavalier Quote

Why not a VF-1 Isamu, a VF-1 Guld, a VF-1 Ozma, a VF-1 Brera, and a VF-1 Basara? It could be interesting, although I wouldn't buy any of those. Do any of these schemes appear in the game? You know, for copyright reasons. Quote

C'mon, that's just awesome: (this is MW's own Jefuemon's custom of the Hasegawa kit) There is one haha I tweeted it to Mr. K and he liked the idea. I also suggested box art by Miki and a comic insert. Quote
EXO Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 There's a thread somewhere that graham posted whether or not wed be interested in M1st themed valks. I for one think it's a great idea. Not only for the cool valks but to raise awareness for the books. Those books need to be finished. Head sculpts and canopy and canopy frames need new molds though... Quote
Mommar Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 To be honest I don't like the "The 1st" schemes. There's too much red on the Hikaru one. Quote
Reïvaj Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 Does it mean you don't like Miria's valks? Or is it too much red for Hikaru? Quote
Mommar Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 The placement of the red behind the canopy and up the fuselage where it meets the black stripes is an eyesore and doesn't flow IMO. It's this weird blotched mess in the middle of the Valk. Quote
jvmacross Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=37248 Quote
Mommar Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 Way too much red going on in one spot like that. It makes Battroid look silly as well IMO. Quote
xrentonx Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 I'd love Macross the First schemes but they'd have to make them proper with remolded heads. Anything less would be half-assed. Quote
Gakken85 Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 It reminds me of a 1/55 for some reason. I like it. Quote
jenius Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 If they do Macross the First VF-1 toys they might also do a Macross the First SDF-1. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 I think "The First" Hikaru 1J looks amazing in fighter, but not so great in battroid. There's basically no striping in battroid, especially the legs. All the awesome striping gives way to just a big red chest. Quote
Falcon18 Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 Speaking of Mt1st valks, what other valks are there that are different other than Hik's? I havent seen any other. Any links pointing to these different valks? Thanks. Quote
Lorindor Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 The Macross the First VF-1D trainer has an altered head. Otherwise, I don't know. Quote
Scyla Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 I'd love Macross the First schemes but they'd have to make them proper with remolded heads. Anything less would be half-assed. Of course but why stop at the head. Like I said a VF-1 V3 for the Macross the First Valkyries. Quote
Mechapilot77 Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 am i the only one that doesn't like the "macross the 1st hikaru" paint scheme? that minmay guard hoax (it was a custom) needs Fast packs but pretty nice otherwise. Quote
