I guess i will await FINAL RELEASE pics or reviews then arcadia!... Edited February 10, 2019 by seti88 Quote
technoblue Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 My wallet will hate me, but if Arcadia is stepping up the ‘finish’ for the 0D then I’m in too. That looks marvelous to me and I hope it translates well to production. HaHa! This year is officially expensive. Quote
spacemanoeuvres Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 In for one...oof that price tho haha Quote
derex3592 Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 It does look gorgeous, but I can't do 40K. Quote

Vortech Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Dam! If they actually release it in that color and panel lined, here I come by first PF Arcadia release. Quote

Maybe this PF will be a good thing? Quote
Dobber Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 I may still have to bite on this. Damn if it is not gorgeous. Question for you all. I never bothered with the original release....what were the issues with it? I see some mentioning problems with the hips? Chris Quote

Arkham Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Thread is moving so fast nobody will notice that I actually prefer the 1st release color Quote

I never bothered with the original release....what were the issues with it? I see some mentioning problems with the hips? Chris In addition to the paint scratching and structural issues reported by jenius, the Tampo printing on some copies was slightly misaligned from the factory. The easiest way to check is to look at the intake warnings on the left and right legs. Copies that had this issue, had one warning that was slightly offset from the other when comparing the two intakes. It was a minor thing, but it could trigger you if you are inclined to obsess over the small details. I had to box up my copy for a while before I was able to shrug it off. Dunno what I will do with a spare 0D now since I don't have a spare 0S anymore. Making the 0C and 0B is a fun idea. Quote
Bolt Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 The finish on this is quite impressive..but , as said before, is this going to be the final look? If so, it may be worth it! Quote

Chris I think there was issues with the heat shield scratching the cockpit window? Or was that only the 0A. I know my 0A got scratched. Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 I think I’d rather pick up a regular release but this will do if I can’t. I can’t see Bandai releasing a HMR so I’m kinda excited Quote

treatment Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 I like the new proper coloring. Hopefully they don't reverse themselves yet again on it. The PF on it is also very much welcome plus! Considering the msrp on this is only about 6y more than the original non-pf/wrong-blue, this new 0D PF will be more justifiable. Hopefully they also have finally fixed hips-joint issue or something. Wish they add more battle-damaged as extras like we saw in the anime. Am wondering if the second-hand shops will get flooded with the non-PF/v1 when this gets officially on preorder. Regardless, CAN'T WAIT for this! Quote
Xigfrid Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 This is the premium finish I was waiting! Quote

Anyone know what "Hopefully they don't reverse themselves yet again on it' means? Is arcadia known for misleading advertising? Has there been a particular incident? Quote
Alex GS Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Suddenly I don't feel that bad for the PF price of the new VF-0D. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=Arcadia+Macross+VF+0D&_sacat=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&_osacat=0&_odkw=Macross+VF+0D Quote
Chronocidal Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 I think Arcadia should offer a trade-in/trade-up service for people who bought the first version. Otherwise, nope, I'm not sending them that much money to put out something they should have done right the first time. I'll paint my own, and it'll be a helluva lot cheaper. Quote

If I remember right, this was the last promotion pictures we had before the release: and when hen opening the boxes, we all saw that! aracadia explained itself and said that sometime the color can go darker after a gloss coat....

no3Ljm Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 That PF looks nice. But it's an easy pass for me. I rather have fun and experience the challenge doing my own PF treatment than to pay another $400 for it. Need to plan what to do when I retire, right? Quote

If so, and if the leg issues are fixed in this one , i’d for sure go for the OD. Purely based on @Loliconwonderfest pics.. Quote

Purely based on @Loliconwonderfest pics.. I have neither. Just the 0A and 0S... right now I’m leaning towards 0D(especially if the paint matches the pic). Maybe if/when there’s a PF SV51 way down the line I’ll have money saved up for that. Quote
