RDX17 Posted October 1, 2019 Posted October 1, 2019 So glad to see another HMR release announced. It's not a Tomahawk, but at least the line is still alive...and that keeps the hope alive as well. Quote
easnoddy Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 Do we have a preorder date on the Fokker VF-4? Quote

Felix Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 What time do they usually post the pre-orders? Seems like I remember it being 3:00am-4:00am-ish.... I can't seem to remember. Quote
jenius Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 Just check when you wake up the next day... This one isn't going to sell out. It's like Nexx's VF-2SS. Quote

So I mostly agree with @jeniusbut part of me thinks this could still sell out if Bandai has a tiny production run. I doubt that they're going to make that many of them. -b. Quote
sqidd Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 I need to get a stand for the V2SS. Anyone know what Tamashii stand to get that will adapt the the supplied adapters? @jenius recommended the Stage Act Trident but that's way too much money for a stand IMO and I really don't need all that. I'm thinking something more like what comes with the VF-1S Focker. Thanks! Quote

sqidd Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 (edited) This guys? I'm guessing the "claw" comes off which leaves a peg which fits the supplied stand adapter? If I order it in 58min I get it tomorrow. Amazon is insane.

vlenhoff Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 (edited) I am sure i am not the only one who noticed this before. The "UN SPACY" printed on the VF-1 gun is upside down! For some reason Bandai printed the 1/48 guns properly, but the HMR guns have it upside down. Now i realized the 1/60 arcadia also has the gun's UN SPACY logo upside down as well. No idea why it took me this long to notice this, but it puzzles me. As I understood the UN SPACY logo is to be upside up when the gun is stored in fighter mode, but i might be wrong. I applied the UN spacy logo in this orientation on my 1/48 Yammies. As you can see the Max Arcadia 1/60 and the HMR Brownie, both have the UN SPACY upside down tampoed on the side of the gun, when in fighter mode. I guess it is not important, as it took me months to notice this, lol. Edited October 3, 2019 by vlenhoff Quote

sqidd Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 I must be in horrible need of coffee. Didn't the VF-4 Focker pre-order start last night (3hrs ago)? I can't find anything on it. Anyone got a link> Thansk1 Quote
seti88 Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 (edited) Dont panic. VF-4 pre-orders start on 4th Oct, normally at 4 pm Tokyo time. Edited October 3, 2019 by seti88 Quote

sqidd Posted October 4, 2019 Posted October 4, 2019 Popped these out today. man, I love me some HMR. If you asked a few months ago I would have told you I'm a big toy guy. These have re-calibrated my likes. Now I'm a big and small toy guy. Not so much middle. Quote
