Kelsain Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 Some screens from M30 IfEUJ.jpg 232e9d3e.jpg No BrushScript is around, we are safe I like the color scheme, but the face is not pretty. Would've preferred the standard 25S head. Quote
charger69 Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 I like the color scheme, but the face is not pretty. Would've preferred the standard 25S head. I think game screens lacks proper rendering, so I'm pretty sure we will get a pretty face Quote
zzgundam010 Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 Another one? Pass because I can't afford it. I am saving up for the YF-30. Quote
skullmilitia Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 I hope they don't make a cannon Fodder scheme for a prototype fighter. Quote
Falcon18 Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 As nice as this is. Don't think I'll be getting it. I'm content with the Isamu version. (can't have too many of the same one or funds will deplete) Awesome piece for those who are getting this. Quote
Mommar Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 As underwhelmed with this mold as I was with Isamus I might get this because I prefer the scheme. Quote
IXTL Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) High res scan A pity the skull insignia is obscured by the turret hinge. Edited January 22, 2014 by IXTL Quote
Gakken85 Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) Too bad it's a bandai YF-29. Looks pretty cool though. I'll pick up a renewal Ozama, and that'll be my sole frontier valk I believe. Edited January 22, 2014 by Gakken85 Quote
Mommar Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) Based on the render they appear to have the canopy color wrong i.e. terrible. Then again, between the two renders the crystals don't even match. In the fighter mode all of the crystals and canopy appear purple while in the Battroid render the crystals appear to be a pale blue. Either way the toy-gem color Bandai has going here kind of ruins the rest of the scheme. Edited January 22, 2014 by Mommar Quote
Mechapilot77 Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) looks good. the yf-29 is truly bandai's vf-1 now. lol. with all these repaints coming out almost makes me wish i hadn't sold my alto scheme one so i could have "completeness"....but then again that scheme was truly meh. every one since then has been better by far. does that say its coming out in may? so soon after spluring for the yf-19....don't know if i'll get it.

skullmilitia Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 Everyone has to get this Ozma, because Ozma is a badass. The only pilot with facial hair, and unlike Fokker, Ozma will punch his own guys to make a point. That and he got wounded in both the series and the movies. He even did the Roy, forget the wounds, I'll hang out till I pass out move. Quote
Gakken85 Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 He also shamed his squadron into showing some balls and attacked that Kaiju with a knife. Quote
Newtype78 Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) I originally didn't think I would have room in my collection for more than one YF-29(the Isamu custom) but this Ozma custom sure is tempting. I like the head sculpt and I really like the darker colours in fighter mode combined with the yellow highlights. I don't care for the blue as shown in the photo but it's not necessarily what the production model will have. I'd like to see a darker and more subdued blue or purple for the canopy. From the screenshots of the fighter mode I've seen, the canopy and crystals seem to have a purple tint that is revealed when light sources hit the surfaces. Edit:skullmilitia and Gakken85 make strong arguments. I must buy the YF-29 Ozma custom now! Edited January 22, 2014 by Newtype78 Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted January 22, 2014 Author Posted January 22, 2014 At first blush I'm not that big a fan of the head sculpt but I'd need to see a clear picture of the toy. Either way it's still on my buy-list. The blue canopy and crystals don't bother me too much, if they keep them then fine, if they change them then that's fine too. -b. Quote
YF-29 Durandal Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 So with the black YF-29 and the YF-29B that would make it five different YF-29's in all? Wow! Maybe Bandai could make another VF-27 just to even things up. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 i think i'm going to get one Quote
aaajin Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 OK. Im sold. Starting to piggy banking from now... was thinking to get a 25A as my sole bandai frontier valk...but now that theyre releasing a dark valk, I think I'll jump on this one instead. Quote

Get both - the 25A was an amazing release from Bandai. -b. Quote
Newtype78 Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 Get both - the 25A was an amazing release from Bandai. -b. Agreed. The 25A is my first Frontier Valk toy and definitely not my last. Quote

Valkyrie addict Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 No thanks! whats the deal with the blue canopy? Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted January 22, 2014 Author Posted January 22, 2014 true but he is too obviously a roy derivative character IMO. they were like lets take everybody's favorite guy and let him not die and make him more macho and "complex". i wish he was more different. Agree for the most part. Even understanding (well, my understanding) that Macross Frontier was a gigantic homage to the Macross series that came before Ozma was very much Roy reincarnated. On topic I keep stalking Nippon-Yasan and some other sites to see when pre-orders go up. -b. Quote
Saburo Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 This will be added to my collection. If the release date is May for the Ozma YF-29, it will be released the same month as the Isamu YF-29 Super Parts. Quote
anime52k8 Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 I wanted this one, why must it come out at the same time as other stuff I want... Quote
sreichma Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 I'm more excited/hopeful about the 25S Renewal listed under it and hope it means the reissue is coming up. Quote
Mommar Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 Where is everybody seeing a release in May? Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted January 22, 2014 Author Posted January 22, 2014 It says it on the article/scan - the bottom left hand corner just below the DX 29. -b. Quote
Kyp Durron Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 true but he is too obviously a roy derivative character IMO. they were like lets take everybody's favorite guy and let him not die and make him more macho and "complex". i wish he was more different. He was the only real man in the series. In fact, the series should have been nothing but 26 episodes of Ozma kicking everyone's ass when he wasn't too busy screwing all the women. That would have been epic. -Kyp Quote
XFJ-01A Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) Well crap. There goes my Year. I dont know if I have any room for any more Valks, then bandai springs this on us.Its either Hovercopter over NY or Anime-Export or give my contact in Tokyo a call. With a May Release, I can only assume the preorders would start up soon. Not only that the YF30 is up this year too right?*Tableflip* Edited January 22, 2014 by XFJ-01A Quote
skullmilitia Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 Homage my ass, Ozma put down way more death than Fokker. He also took bullets to protect his guys and nearly took out a cyborg on his own. Ozma lived, Fokker got taken out by a Kamjin punch. Not being mean, but homage? I think your misinterpreting the fact he's flying the Skull 001 colors and Has to be macho, he's the squad leader to the elite group of SMS. Ozma is clearly not a womanizer either as he gave up Catherine to take care of Ranka Who was an orphaned kid. That's a man, being a big brother to a kid with no family! Ozma is true Hero, in the clearest sense. Back on topic, Ozma stuff takes Alto's place in my collection because Alto Was a Emo coward, who only got lucky because Sheryl gave him the fold crystal. I won't even get into the TV show. Plus Black valk? Dur yes! Quote
Scyla Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 If this is released in May does that indicate that the YF-30 will be sold much later this year? I honestly thought the YF-30 would be next. Quote
xrentonx Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) I'm a Focker man through and through but Ozma made Frontier for me. I couldn't stand anyone else on the team. So much good stuff coming out and so little space and money Edited January 22, 2014 by xrentonx Quote
