seti88 Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 hahaha BUT please dont be a nerve wrecking PO! Quote
Mechapilot77 Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 bring on the 1D! i thin i want 2! wonder if bandai will choose the 1D or any 2 seater for a DX chogokin release in the future. Quote
Lolicon Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 Let's hope HLJ and Amiami's websites actually work this time. Quote

Both sites failed miserably when the VF-4 went up, hopefully the hype isn't quite as hard on the 1D. I've got several things I need to order that night as well, Figuarts Captain Marvel goes up then as well, need her and a 1D at minimum. Quote
RDX17 Posted December 1, 2018 Posted December 1, 2018 (edited) Up on Tamashii Nations now: Hi-Metal R VF-1D Only four images at the moment though. Edited December 1, 2018 by RDX17 Quote
seti88 Posted December 1, 2018 Posted December 1, 2018 ah what i was waiting for, thanks for the post rdx17. hmmmm...No detachable fuselage or detachable arm... oh well at least there is minmay in hand and extended seats! Quote
Shizuka the Cat Posted December 1, 2018 Posted December 1, 2018 Is the VF-1D the first HMR to include a pilot seat neck attachment? Quote
seti88 Posted December 1, 2018 Posted December 1, 2018 Yes it is for Bandai HMR. Although, FEXT hobby with their armor sets, did beat Bandai in releasing neck seat attachments for HMR. Quote
rdrunner Posted December 1, 2018 Posted December 1, 2018 I had hoped that the HM-R VF-1D would have the option to detach the cockpit for the scene in episode 2 or 3 when Focker rescued them. But that might have been too much to ask for on a 1/100 scale model. I am still very excited about this release - bring on the HM-R Virgin Road VF-1D, Bandai!! Quote

For sure. I'm always waiting for those Tamashii Nations pictures. Maybe there will be a few other surprises once they post the full set. Quote
HardlyNever Posted December 1, 2018 Posted December 1, 2018 Anyone else notice how one picture has the (correct) one shoulder light in battroid, and the other has two shoulder lights in battroid? Bandai loves their photoshop. Or maybe the pictures are from different stages of development. Quote

Bandai loves their photoshop. Or maybe the pictures are from different stages of development. In that first battroid photo, I think it's just the angle that makes it look missing. The other light is just barely peeking out from behind the head. Quote

borgified Posted December 2, 2018 Posted December 2, 2018 Not to rain on the upcoming HMR VF-1d pre-orders in roughly 12+ hours, I've found a few reviews on Nexx's Vf-2ss. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taiJpdKy8V4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MnpFTy2jF4 - GKaiser's full review Quote
spacemanoeuvres Posted December 2, 2018 Posted December 2, 2018 Whoops almost spaced on the PO. Seems like a strange day for preorder. Isn’t it typically on a Wednesday or Thursday? Quote

Roy Focker Posted December 2, 2018 Posted December 2, 2018 I just saw the pre-order is 11pm my time. I won't be getting home until 11:10pm. I wonder if I can pull my car over to the side of the road and order with my phone. I might miss this one. Quote

Phone ordering has been pretty good to me and I think @sh9000 mentioned he always uses his phone. Good luck tonight everyone! Quote
