VT1 (teased) VE1 (teases) N-ger Qrau (blue and red of course) Regult (green) 3x VF-1A VF1S Max Is that it? pretty much.....the DYRL "set" is actually closer to becoming a reality, as they have already teased all of the unique DYRL molds with the exception of the Q-Rau....all of the VF-1A's are just repaints....same for the Regults... I'm thinking they will do the hybrid Q-Rau..... the question is will they adapt a DYRL type for the TV version or adapt a TV type for a DYRL version? I'd personally prefer a 100% TV version. As of now, it seems the TV N-Ger could end up being the only one who will not get any love...the TV and DYRL versions are just too different to try to come up with a hybrid version.....maybe someone can use photoshop to show what a DYRL N-Ger would look like in TV-style colors.......although they did offer the TV N-Ger as a "voting" choice.....only time will tell I suppose....

Well, Bandai did tease several VF's for their HM-R line from other Macross shows during their "shock and awe" event a few years back....... IIRC, the last one that they gave a closer look at was the VF-2SS.....so there is definitely a good chance that the HM-R line will continue with VF's from other Macross shows eventually.... My wish would be a 1/35th VF-1J to celebrate SDFM's 35th anniversary....However, DYRL's 35th will be in 2019 and I would be happy to wait for a 1/35th VF-1S Hikaru Strike! But since we are wishing......why not both? Quote

If so, then yes...amazing to think that we may actually get to see them released...and that we just technically need the N-Ger and Q-Rau to have at least one version of each of the enemy mechs. The Regult missile parts seem likely to be released, but not sure if as parts or entire new Regults. Not so sure about the Regult Scout, but still hopeful. ... My only concern at the moment is the lack of a prototype for the HMR VF-1D, which IMO, would be a major omission from Bandai if it were not released. I am hoping maybe Bandai will tease it sometime this year, perhaps at their next Tamashii event. SDFM's 35th Anniversary is turning out to be great for fan's of the original show.....a complete set of Destroids in more or less the same scale was a dream just a few years ago...now it looks like it is coming true. Great time to be a Macross collector! I'm almost 100% certain the heavy regult will be the entire figure. Fiscally, it doesn't make sens to only release add-on parts for it. Because the VF-1D is a trainer which has two seats similar to the Elint and Ostrich, it could come out when those do. I doubt Bandai will pass it up as it shouldn't be a difficult remould for them. It's a real shame Yamato couldn't complete their destroid line in 1/60. Quote
jenius Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 I think they should do a regult reissue concurrent with a release of a scout regult and package the heavy and light missiles with the scout. Quote

I thought the VF-1D 2 seater was same level seats with no hump and the VE-1 and VT-1 had a raised theater seating with hump? I can see doing a Virgin road or CF along with the VF-1D though Quote

This!!! So much this! Then give me my TV Q Rau - plllleeeaaaasssseee Bandai!!! Quote
Slave IV Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 (edited) I think they should just release scout and missile variants all individually as complete packages so we don't have to piece things together and just buy the versions we want in the quanity we want them. And they can also reissue the regular Regult and the Armored Valk please! Edited March 21, 2017 by Slave IV Quote
jenius Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 In a perfect world, sure, but I want the scout to be made and I think there might need to be an incentive to get people to buy it. It's like the Glaug... I don't see much army building potential to offset the reduced demand for the obscure mech. I would also be okay with the missile parts being included with a N-Ger or other oddball. Quote
Slave IV Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 Whatever works, bring it! But they have to reissue the Regult like you said, or like I said, there will be insane demand for it when people have all these parts and not enough Regults to put them on. Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 They've done the Glaug which is one of my favorites, but I'm going to be extremely pissed if they don't offer at least the DYRL? N Ger! !!! The have teased this mold. Hope it's not vaporware because it's my favorite enemy mech. Quote

sh9000 Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 I welcome any new releases because I'll buy them all. Hmm green fabric for a custom Zentradi uniform for HMR VF-1A TV Max? Quote
Big s Posted March 22, 2017 Posted March 22, 2017 Try the cosplay material that's super thin with a rubbery side and the other side like fabric. It's surprisingly stretchy and comes in many colors. Also light doesn't show through. Quote

I'm even starting to consider getting a Toynami VF-1D, or building a 1/100 model kit of it... Quote

You're not the only one. Quote
sh9000 Posted March 22, 2017 Posted March 22, 2017 I'm fine with them blending in with my HMR in the meantime. Quote
Slave IV Posted March 22, 2017 Posted March 22, 2017 @sh9000 Thanks again for the tip on the Monster tilt. I guess if I looked at it longer, I would have noticed it but I did end up using it. I setup a new shelf dedicated to Macross HMR but that thing is so huge the shelf is already almost full, lol. Quote
jenius Posted March 22, 2017 Posted March 22, 2017 I wonder if the ball jointed head means Hikaru and Max will get DYRL vf1A toys that come with optional S heads. Quote

sh9000 Posted March 22, 2017 Posted March 22, 2017 That would be nice. All they would have to do is not paint their numbers and give Max's VF-1A/S 2 heatshields, one black and the other blue. @Slave IV No problem. Quote

hachi Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 My excitement is tempered by the worry that MyKombini will cancel my HMR Miria order like they did with the Glaug. I hope this time they don't do the paypal BS and just ship it... Quote
jvmacross Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 Milia is coming out and I haven't opened up one of my HMR Max -1Js.... Quote

Then there's always nin-nin-game, 13190 yen for backup? https://www.nin-nin-game.com/en/march-17/20533-the-super-dimension-fortress-macross-vf-1j-super-valkyrie-milia-fallyna-jenius-limited-edition-hi-metal-r-en.html Quote
