seti88 Posted August 2, 2019 Posted August 2, 2019 (edited) yea patience is the way to go.. Just my searching for the 0D after looking at the lineart in the variable fighter book, led me to arcadia's display... Don't underestimate the power of lineart and a valk display to make you go down the rabbit hole.. Edited August 2, 2019 by seti88 Quote
Double Spy Posted August 2, 2019 Posted August 2, 2019 /confused Didn't this VF-0D already get released? Wasnt there a PF also or was that a VF-0S? This is the old VF-0D just PF and price hike? Quote
jenius Posted August 2, 2019 Posted August 2, 2019 A regular edition 0D was released, not a PF. A PF 0S has been released so now we'll just be waiting on a PF 0A. Quote

This is the old VF-0D just PF and price hike? There was never a PF of the 0D. Only the 0S. If it were exactly the same as the first release but a higher price you could justify using the term "price hike" but if it's going to be pre-weathered like we're seeing here, well, that takes additional work to do.

seti88 Posted August 2, 2019 Posted August 2, 2019 (edited) yeah it looks too good to be true, doesnt it?! but there is a way to display it...on a special display box on its own.. away from all the other "regular" valks.. Or just look to collect panel lined valks (customs) from now on! Edited August 2, 2019 by seti88 Quote

And I still dream on finishing my own Premium Finish Valk... Someday. Quote
Slave IV Posted August 2, 2019 Posted August 2, 2019 Man, some of you sure are picky, lol! I like all kinds of valks. Heavily tampoed, sparsly tampoed, panel lined, not panel lined, weathered, not weathered...it's all good! I don't need or want all my valks to be matched perfectly. These are war machines dammit! It's ok for them to have varying degrees of wear, colors or markings. Quote
seti88 Posted August 2, 2019 Posted August 2, 2019 (edited) Actually the best valk is one you can secure a pre-order! in other words, the one you have in hand... Edited August 2, 2019 by seti88 Quote

I remember people were complaining the shade of blue when it first came out years ago, now it's looks perfect. Quote
Loop Posted August 2, 2019 Posted August 2, 2019 I was ok with the factory fresh paint scheme, but I have to have at least one of these weathered ones. Quote

Lolicon Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 I might get two. I like the the clean one I have, but the air intake tampo is misaligned on mine, and it of course is anno to me. With 2x of the PF versions in hand, I can go about fixing it without worrying about screwing it up. Quote

Shouldn't have to wait 4 years and pay double the price, to get the color it should have been in the first place. (It's not a PF vs non-PF thing, it's the BASE COLOR). Quote

[Price to be determined, scheduled to be released in December 2019 (c) 2002 BIGWEST] Before the last one festival, we were able to display Dekomas in Winter 2019. This time it was an exhibition with paint test products. Since the inking and painting gradation have not yet been determined, Actual product is slightly different. The last sentence looks alarming. Is that a nice way to say that the blue might still be different? Edited August 12, 2019 by no3Ljm Quote
seti88 Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 (edited) 'Slightly'? Anyway gonna wait and see....if only the price was lower...why not do a 1/100 version too arcadia? Edited August 12, 2019 by seti88 Quote
derex3592 Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 I'm gonna laugh so hard when people open up the PF box and it isn't what has been shown. I can't wait t see the hate flames. The odd thing is over the years, I've kind of come to love the darker shade of blue the original is. You just have to think of it as not from the show..... Quote
Mechapilot77 Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 so that display piece looks great. do we ASSume the production version will look like? if we don't preorder we will pay the full MSRP or higher, but what if we preorder again and its again the wrong color again? haha. i mean i like the color the original release was but somehow can't help but feel cheated once as over time i've come to like the paler/greyer blue better...and this PF version of that blue looks great! Quote
Slave IV Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 I don't care what color it comes, it is a sweet design and as long as all the mechanical issues are fixed like the 0S, I'll be a happy camper. Quote
spacemanoeuvres Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 Oh wow release is scheduled for December. PO going to drop soon I imagine. Not that securing an Arcadia valk is ever an issue lol Quote

This VF-0D phoenix on board the hero will be released as "Premium Finish" version. 1) Image painting that faithfully reproduces the texture used in the mechanic settings of this work (such as fading expression of surface painting by ultraviolet rays) is applied. 2) The size of the marking was reviewed and adjusted according to the above texture, and more scaled marking was applied to various parts of the fuselage by tampo printing. 3) In addition, the panel line was inked and stains were applied to key areas. * Individual differences occur because painting is manual. Please note. ※ This product is a limited-order-made Arcadia Online limited product. ■ Material: ABS, POM, zinc alloy, etc. ■ Product size: Approx. 310 mm in total length when fighting ■ Package form: Closed box ■ Package size: 300 X 380 X 130 (mm) ■ Accessories: Pilot figures (Kudo Shin and Edgar) / gun pods / missile / spare Pitot tube / stand for attachment / Owner's manual ■ planning cooperation / design: Corporation tea Rex (Hiroyuki Motoki) ■ reservation acceptance September 2, starting from noon for ■ will be delivered only to skilled workers Because there are many manual painting processes that cannot be performed, the production process takes longer than normal products.

Second deadline: September 30, 11:00 pm * The delivery date for orders received by the second deadline will be as early as possible, but production will be based on the total number of orders received in the second order.

Ikaros3 Posted August 31, 2019 Posted August 31, 2019 Whhhy! I saved enough for 2 of these. Now I’ll probably have to pay the same amount for 1 after the crazy markup. Quote
