Falcon18 Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) Is that the new updated blue or the old one? Edit: on the battroid pic Edited August 20, 2014 by Falcon18 Quote
David Hingtgen Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 Gotta be the old blue. Because if it isn't, then it's 99% the same as the old one, and not anywhere near what it needed to be changed to. Quote
505thAirborne Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 Is that the new updated blue or the old one? Edit: on the battroid pic The pic I posted is probably the first shade of blue, but I love the way its transformed. This came from the same link as the updated Battroid pics. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 the blue... looks like yamato max... Quote

This came from the same link as the updated Battroid pics. Yeah. I notice that the gerwalk pics are the same blue. Yup. It is beautiful. Those beefy legs while still looking good in fighter. Sexy.

Kanedas Bike Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 ^You missed the rest of my post. Re: the ever controversial shade of blue, I'm sure Arcadia will change it so that it's not so "Max" and closer to screen or CG line-art accurate. -b. Quote
wm cheng Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 Still seems to still have that droopy neck syndrome from the old VF-0... Quote
miriya Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 New images SO BEAUTIFUL!!!! Thanks Charger! Quote
Raptor One Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 Ugh, so badass. Funny about the colour though. It looks even bluer. Personally I've ceased to care, they can leave it that colour all they want. Quote
Scream Man Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 i want this, and then a new 0S and 0A Shin with nice tight joints ajnd a proper grip on the gunpod. Quote
macster1971 Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 Looks way Coooool! I've always wanted a VF-0, But why do they always have to be damned fiddly and Fragile, Not mention Expensive! The cost of Valkyries now is really Sky High! (Yes) Pun intended. Quote

Gakken85 Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) I doubt it. They will probably do repaints and the VF-0A ect to milk the mould. Maybe they will tackle it eventually though. Edited August 20, 2014 by Gakken85 Quote
Kyp Durron Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 Still seems to still have that droopy neck syndrome from the old VF-0... Looks that way to me too, and if that's the case, I'm going to be seriously disappointed. Quote
Gakken85 Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 Where are we seeing droops again? The GERWALK seems straight. Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Where are we seeing droops again? The GERWALK seems straight. Well, I can see the slight gap/droop in Gerwalk but I won't be concerned about it unless it shows in pictures with a modified blue and is closer to production. -b. Quote
Scream Man Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 i never noticed it on the originals really, until Macrossworld mentioned it once or twice. or 80 000 times. Quote
Gakken85 Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 (edited) The test shot is usually loose and beaten up. I'd take it with a grain of salt. Edited August 21, 2014 by Gakken85 Quote

raptormesh Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Almost perfect...Where are them pre-orders. Quote
wm cheng Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 It makes me not want to pick up my VF-0 - I like that toy and every time I want to pick it up to swoosh it around, it feels like its going to break as I lift it up off the surface, the neck flops and the nose drops at least an inch. Quote
Gakken85 Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 I sold mine like a year ago, soon as I heard rumor their would be a re-working of the mould. Quote
Tking22 Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 My supposedly re-issue 0S pretty much fell apart on me, one half of the right foot thruster broke off while I was transforming it, so it could no longer stand in battroid, it was a floppy mess pretty much everywhere, arms couldn't support the gunpod, front landing gear became loose and had difficulty supporting a rolling fighter, gerwalk extension joints were flimsy and I had a very hard time standing the figure in gerwalk, the monitor thing inside the cockpit was glued down or something ridiculous to the point that when I tried to maneuver the seat in the cockpit up into the battroid position the monitor snapped off then got stuck inside the nose of the fighter for about a year. I was very excited for a VF-0, particularly the S, I could care less about Shin or the A, I waited, then I got my re-issue release and it was awful. I'm still on the fence about this release, I want a VF-0 in my collection, but I have too many bad memories and experiences, by comparison my SV-51 Ivanov was gold, the only reason I sold him was because my stupid 0S fell apart. I need more final production shots, or at least close to that, I need a truly fixed VF-0, and I need a better blue, with how expensive I"m sure thing thing will be, I refuse to settle for anything less then exactly what I want this time around, if it's not looking up to snuff I'm gonna have no problem passing and completely leaving anything Zero related out of my collection.

1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) Yes I hope this doesn't flop around or break. Quality is important factor in whether I get it. I don't see how they can stuff this up. The VF-0 is just a big vf-1 without as boxy of a frame. I do think they should do the armor. Since like the VF-0D it was missed last time. Unlike the newer valks the transformation is simple. Since these were not mas produced robots they can't do too many repaints though so I expect they will keep price as high as they can get away with. (similar to the yf-19) Edited August 22, 2014 by 1/1 LowViz Lurker Quote
anime52k8 Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 New images that's one thing I don't like about it is the hands. I would rather see hands like bandai Uses on their DX-25's (big ball joint in the wrist and chunkier palms/fingers. Quote
IXTL Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) The 0D towers over the YF-19. https://twitter.com/Mrk_arcadia/status/502722106853847041/photo/1 Edited August 22, 2014 by IXTL Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 ^Nice, thanks IXTL. One thing I'm really digging is the VF-0D head, I payed much attention to the design before but I really like it. -b. Quote
