funkymonkeyjavajunky Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 Any opinions as to what the price point will be for this toy? Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 $250 No stand No Fast Packs Minimal missiles I'd rather not pay that much but I love the 0's Quote
no3Ljm Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 The Battroid mode is looking good. I really wish I have unlimited cash flow to get all the Valks coz this one really looks nice and HUGE. But have to set priorities. But I'm still looking forward for their 0S Renewal down the line after the 0D. I'll get that one for sure. Quote
Brooklynwolf Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 The 0D towers over the YF-19. https://twitter.com/Mrk_arcadia/status/502722106853847041/photo/1 New guy here, nice to meet you all! Why is the 0D so much bigger than the yf-19? Did the designers at arcadia screw up? Or is it scaled properly to one another? Correct me if I'm wrong...but isn't the yf-19 bigger than the VF-1...and isn't the Vf-0D the precursor of the vf-1s?? Looks good nonetheless...but I would appreciate it if someone can clarify things up for me. Quote
VF5SS Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 The VF-0 is actually bigger than the VF-1 and slightly larger than the YF-19. Plus it doesn't compress as much in Battroid mode. Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 The VF-0 is enormous. The VF-1 is small in comparison. Fluff being that refining the overtechnology allowed for a smaller more efficient Valkyrie. The VF-0 even burns petroleum based fuel. They talk about it in the Macross Zero OVA. Quote

It looks great and I'm interested in getting on, but if it was out of scale, I probably would've passed. I'm glad that it isn't. Quote
Mechapilot77 Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 yup vf-0 has always been huge..a 1/60 vf-0 is about as big as a 1/48 vf-1. Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 yup vf-0 has always been huge..a 1/60 vf-0 is about as big as a 1/48 vf-1. yup In-universe explanation was that it was an experimental fighter and test bed, plus it had older/larger engines which all necessitated the larger frame. -b. Quote

Kanedas Bike Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 Initiate scale wars!!!! At least we've moved past color. -b. Quote
treatment Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) At least we've moved past color. Dunno if it's just room shadowing/shading, but the GRAY on that 0D pic is much awesomely better than the cream colors of the older pic and the yf19-v2. The incorrect Blue still sucks, tho...

Raptor One Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) OD Battroid mode is reminding me more and more of the 19ACTIVE. Especially with those colours. I think it's the head along with the fact that it's a delta wing Edited August 22, 2014 by Raptor One Quote

I think it's the head along with the fact that it's a delta wing Ha, you have the 19 Active on the brain (from the newest speculation thread). The VF-0D is going to be an automatic buy for me. If it turns out that some parts explode with or without contact then it'll be an automatic sell shortly thereafter, but I'm not expecting any catastrophic issues. -b. Quote
Loop Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 Ha! just about every valk has been an automatic buy for me.. Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 Ha! just about every valk has been an automatic buy for me.. Yikes! Luckily I've been able to avoid that, simply because I'm not a fan of the Mac 7 Valkyries. As much as I love Yamato/Arcadia products most of my auto-buys have actually been Mac F. It would be awesome if Arcadia was developing the VF-0S in conjunction with the 0D, as much as I like what I've seen I'd much rather have the S in my collection. -b. Quote

Kanedas Bike Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 He has a bigger antenna and less uniboob. win. Sorry for the OT post(s). But the YF-19 rules and VF-0D drools (in direct comparison only). Besides what the 0D ever do besides crash? The YF-19 had an infinitely better pilot, is still used years after the fact by way of Mac F AND it saved Macross City. -b. Quote
Phobos Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 All criticisms aside, I'll be buying this. I've been waiting for this for YEARS. Quote
spanner Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 It makes me want to sing. I know the feeling brother! my heart has been singing the Macross song since 1982! Quote
spanner Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 I don't just want this.. I need this in my life so badly! Quote

Agreed. Always wanted a 0S in my collection. Though I'm probably buying both too anyways. Quote
Scream Man Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 i have 4 0S's and 3 0A's from the original runs, and i would STILL by an updated S and A toy. Ones with tighter joints and better grip for the gunpods. i have 4 0S's and 3 0A's from the original runs, and i would STILL by an updated S and A toy.
