xrentonx Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 I'm trying so hard not to spend this month cause this thing is gonna hit hard Quote
technoblue Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Of course I'm more interested in the engineering and overall tactile experience of the toy than color, but that doesn't mean I'm willing to just be fine with any color (what if it looked like the NASCAR tuxedo VF-1J? ). For $300 I want to make sure I'm happy with it. Regardless, I'm not panicking or anything, just really curious as to what it's going to look like so I know whether or not to spend my money elsewhere. Yeah, I understand the concern. It is a lot of money. As fans, we can spend a lot of time in scrutiny---going over every seam and detail. If someone finds an attribute that they are sure will get in the way of their enjoyment, then I think it is worth walking away from the figure. No amount of money is worth paying for it at that point. I think I've been lucky with Macross so far. Apart from my own user error with things like the 171, I've been happy. Yes, even the Tux-1J won me over in person. I think that the VF-0D will also win me over with its good looks, even if it is more of a Max-0D when we see the final colors. Quote
spanner Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 I'm trying so hard not to spend this month cause this thing is gonna hit hard I know many people don't like to pre-pay their pre-orders but this is the very reason is why I do so! Quote
Scyla Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Do we know if Arcadia has a booth at the Winter Wonder Festival tomorrow (today)? Quote
Reïvaj Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Do we know if Arcadia has a booth at the Winter Wonder Festival tomorrow (today)? I think so: みすたーK @Mrk_arcadia さて。 明日はWFの搬入で出勤です。 明後日はWFの本番です。 自宅の掃除が出来ません･･･。 と言う事で、これからこもります。 それではコンゴトモヨロシク！ （WF関係者さん、頑張りましょう） Quote
David Hingtgen Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 They showed a new VF-0A/S there-----where's the finalized 0D pics?!? Quote
treatment Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 saw this additional pic at a toysdaily-thread: Somebody else is bound to have a clear pic of the 0D at WonFest, but haven't seen it anywhere, yet... Quote

eriku Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Bleh, too dark. But now that I know the 0S/A is coming I'll just wait for those. Quote
close313 Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Sad that it's purply..but I'm still getting that huge delta winged fighter. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Though tiny, the toys-daily pic shows GERWALK mode and looks much more correct, color-wise. Also, even this late---that could still be a six-month-old prototype at the show. Quote
Mommar Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Bit odd really. That fighter mode is definitely too dark. The Toysdaily picture is washed out but the one in Gerwalk looks more correct. Quote
Gakken85 Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 (edited) Meh - better ones below. Hlj Posted this. I think that's the OS from above. I'm down for one of each. Edited February 8, 2015 by Gakken85 Quote
xrentonx Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 (edited) Nice! So the A/S is confirmed? Edit: Just saw the pic! Edited February 8, 2015 by xrentonx Quote
Gakken85 Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 (edited) Oh here we go.. the good stuff: Fighter mode looks sexual Edited February 8, 2015 by Gakken85 Quote
Gakken85 Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 I hope they use that art for the boxes. Quote
wmkjr Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 (edited) As we say here in Hawaii Gakken: "Hana Hou"! Edited February 8, 2015 by wmkjr Quote
Gakken85 Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 I think these are from Taghobby: http://www.taghobby.com/1-0/1-1/%E4%B8%8D%E6%96%B7%E6%9B%B4%E6%96%B0-2015%E5%B9%B42%E6%9C%888%E6%97%A5-wonder-festival-2015%E5%86%AC-arcadia%E5%B1%95%E5%93%81/ Shot of GBP too. Quote
Mommar Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Hopefully that's the box art. It'll mean they finally figured it out. Quote
jenius Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Agreed, that art looks great. Good for Arcadia! Quote
Gakken85 Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Also, looks like these were posted in a new thread yesterday I always just check my bookmarks. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Also, looks like these were posted in a new thread yesterday I always just check my bookmarks. thanks for linking the tag hobby stuff though Quote
neoexcaliber Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Isn't it funny that they can't even get the blue to match the blue on the printed poster next to the toy? Quote
jenius Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 The lighting at these shows can be kinda brutal and it might not be a final 0D. There's still hope! Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 The VF-0D : As blue as we wanna be! gak, you thinking of getting the 0s and 0a as well? Quote
Gakken85 Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 (edited) Oh for sure. I love the semi-realistic look of the 0's. I don't really collect frontier, or plus/7 - so this is my bag baby Maybe the new TV show will have some cool mech designs. Edited February 8, 2015 by Gakken85 Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 i wonder if there's any more shots of the 0d, im still on the fence based on antibiotictab's photo. Quote
McFly!! Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Thanks for the pics and links, guys! =) 2015's shaping up to be even better than 2014! Quote
mechaninac Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 ^ If you mean better at siphoning copious amounts of cash from your wallet, then I agree with you. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) Arcadia's blog (Mr.K) updated sharing from Wonderfest. http://ameblo.jp/arcadiaac/entry-11987598280.html he thinks that the 0D got alot of compliments: attendees commenting the tint is close to the show. many people asked if the 0S/A will be in the 30,000yen range as the 0D, meaning commentators were complaining/commenting on the high price.
