spacemanoeuvres Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 Looks good, definitely want one since I missed out on the GBP. A little spendy but not as bad as aftermarket GBP Quote

Crimson9 Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 Stupid Ebay 20% off coupon... I had been thinking about picking up the Focker VF-1S, since it's really the last one I need, but I just couldn't justify the $200+ price. $175 was a different story. I had to pull the trigger. I still haven't opened up my Max and Miria. Not really sure where I'm going to display these yet. Technically I still need the Hikaru 1S, but I'm not really hung up on the DYRL versions. Quote
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 Regult missile set secured! After three months, but who's counting? Good news is my Elintseeker cleared customs already. Looks like Mexican Customs is finally catching up. Quote

mickyg Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 My VE-1 arrived today, after HLJ SAL shipping, a month or so after it released and sat in my PW for other goodies. I have to say it's really good to finally have the Elintseeker in my collection. It's the first I've had of any type or size so it's cool to have this really unique design now. I'm not sure I'm a fan of the beige grey they used but given how unusual the scheme is anyway, I guess it's hard to know what it should be anyway. And if those recent screen grabs from DYRL are anything to go by, the entire design is totally different to what any toy has ever tried to reproduce. Quote
sh9000 Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 I wonder if the beige grey of the VE-1 blends with the beige grey of the CF. If so then hands can be swapped. Quote

Mommar Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 I asked about the Thunder Hammer additional weapons pieces prices and they told me to wait for an announcement "soon." Whatever soon means. Quote

If so then hands can be swapped. So, it's very close. It's not exactly the same though. The VE-1 is just a touch darker than the CF 1A. But if you want to mix and match parts, I think it'd be very hard to tell the difference. Does make me wonder why Bandaid'd mix up a new batch of plastic for something so close. Anyway, here's some pics to help illustrate. Bear in mind that these are taken under fluorescent lights and I've edited the tones a bit to make them easier to see the differences. For instance, I'm a reasonably pale white guy but my hand looks awesomely tanned in this pic. The 1A CF part is the landing gear cover and it's fitted, with the VE-1 part right next to it. Here the VE-1 part is at the top, along with all the other CF parts. Edited March 15, 2018 by mickyg Need pics, not links Quote
