Arcadia 1/60 Perfect Transformation VF-0D for 2015

[Xigfrid]

I vote for B version too!

[Mommar]

Both test versions? Hope they can release the B/C versions in the future.

I'm already in for one of those...

Yes, only the very earliest test F-14's had the larger glove stiffeners.

if they could release a Zero-B in the very same colors as this it would friggin EPIC!!!

I'd buy 3! no 4! or maybe even 5!

They keep changing the blue. I personally like the grayer blue. Also would like one in all gray or grey on gray on grae

[raptormesh]

Some pictures I took recently: The first is actually edited to match what it looks like in reality, the second is not edited. You can see the blue is markedly different due to the camera(in this case, an iphone 6).

The VF-0's are the most majestic valks in existence.

Thank's for the pics. Don't worry about the colour, that's the same old painted prototype.

Man is it Febuary yet????

donno know about the color...

[McFly!!]

Thanks for the new pics guys! I watched M0 again and I don't think that the blue was consistent there either...

No saggy neck though.

Must be the final production since its bare with only the most minimum of tampo markings. I guess they decided to grace us with the intake warning on this one?! - argh!

[jenius]

Man, it seemed like they had the color figured out... now I'm not so sure.

[David Hingtgen]

Still too saturated. Again---I'm betting the photo/boxart guys know what to do, but the actual plastic/mold guys at the factory don't know anything about color beyond "lighter" and "darker"----which will never achieve the DESATURATED blue that is needed.

I know eh..

I'll bet you're right, the factory guys don't know what they're doing. Obviously Arcadia had it right so they know what they were going for. Even though this is the "final" production model that doesn't mean they can't get back to the factory and ask them why they can't figure out the saturation... hopefully, anyway. It's not a bad color as is, but disappointing after the corrected photoshop pics.

Mr.K wasn't kidding, it really looks like this:

not a fan...

[Valkyrie addict]

Well, guess we're gonna have a lot of weathering to do.

[chyll2]

imo, the shades is better compared to the very MAX-like color before. But still, the promo shot or the box art color are better. Hopefully, it will be fixed before going to production.

[David Hingtgen]

not a fan...

Yeah, if that's it, I plan to cancel mine. Then wait for the "no, THIS release is really Shin's" version. (VF-0A, anybody?)

The VF-0D is grey-blue. Not bright blue, not VF-22 Max blue, and not navy blue.

[raptormesh]

Same here. I would like more grey.

[Tking22]

Yeah the color is still meh for me, also, it's still way too expensive, the mold looks good though, hopefully it doesn't fall apart like the last VF-0 toys.

[firefly]

I don't understand why this color because page 71 in this post the color is right to the VF 0D, "pics from Amiami"

^That's a PS'ed painted prototype.

[derex3592]

That wing pic looks more like the color the VF-1 Cavalier should have been.

[ULessa]

I think I may need to cancel my PO on this. Must save the $$$

[vsim]

I wonder why the price of the VF-0D is so much higher than the 1J with armor?

[ChaoticYeti]

Tooling.

[Sildani]

Paying for the new engineering and parts? I'm fairly sure that for the GBP all they did was dust off Yamato's molds.

[ChaoticYeti]

^ Yep ^

[aaajin]

for the GBP/VF-1 they would still need to fix molds degradation but for the VF-0, CAD drafters, mold cutting, etc2

[Gakken85]

Plus about 10% more diecast or more. The old ones didn't have diecast biceps.

[David Hingtgen]

I sure hope some people are tweeting (in Japanese) that it needs to be more GREY-ish. Not lighter-blue, not darker-blue, but more GREY-blue.

(Again, the shopped sample pics are dead-on, but whoever is in charge of the plastic itself just doesn't seen to comprehend how to make a color less intense/saturated)

[Loop]

Well I pre-ordered 2 from a shop that I cancel if I need to, I hope I don't need to but the color is confusing me on this product. I would think it is not that hard to get the color down.
