Them still sitting on one of the most popular destroids still is killing me. Throw the Tomahawk and Phalanx together in a package and I'll buy it.

[seti88]

What are the odd's of the scout releasing early next year? P-bandai maybe? 

Worried abt any sticker shock, as i been budgeting a lot more nowadays..

Missing a golden opportunity here to make it a proper TV Roy with that scout.

Exactly. Now, I don't have any 1S in my humble HMR collection, so I'd be happy with any 1S, specially TV Roy.

I wouldn't mind another VF-1S, but with the right shade of white 

[Corrinald]

My sentiments exactly. This should absolutely be a proper white TV Version Roy VF-1S.

Other than that - very cool Scout Regult.

1 for each mode I suspect haha

Exactly!

[ScrambledValkyrie]

The Scout was probably not at the top of many people’s lists (mine included), but still very exciting to see it potentially get made. Also seems logical for Bandai, since they can reuse the leg molds from the standard Regult.

And count me as another one who would rather see a proper TV Roy instead of a reissue.

[seti88]

Why not include the scout regult with a regular regult? Wouldn't that make 100x more sense? 

I've been lobbying for gift-sets in the HMR line for a while and when they put one together it's just a total head scratcher.

Or two Regults with a scout for an escort. I'd buy it. BUt hell, I'd buy more Regults at regular pricing considering the aftermarket now.

This makes a ton of sense.

I don't have an HMR Roy and I LOVE the Scout, so I'm all in for a set if it sees the light of day! (That being said, I wish they would do a TV Roy for it) 

[Drad]

We need all the main TV characters/machines as well as some Zentran and Meltran soldiers. Britai, Exedol, Millia, Kamjin, etc.

Yes!!!

Not missing the Scout if/when it gets released!

[easnoddy]

Would have been cool if they packaged a static ES-11D Cat's Eye for the "recon pack".

[Roy Focker]

I would pair the scout with Hayao.  An unarmed enemy with a less popular hero.  Both good for serious collectors.

The problem with that logic is you'd be pairing two low demand products. The goal is to pair one high demand with one low demand product.

Throw in a Fan Racer!!!

Agreed.  Bandai, listen to our song!

As a person who has multiples of every HMR, I’m ok if the Regult Scout comes in a 2 pack with a VF-1S DYRL Roy or TV Roy if they decide to change it.  I’m down for more 2 packs if it means getting those releases that would be harder to sell on their own.

What's even the difference between DYRL Roy's VF-1S and TV Roy's? Just the pilot suit?

The pilot, the hands, and the fact that the TV versions are usually whiter. Plus if it came with super parts, those would be more green and less blue.

[mickyg]

...And no Strike pack for the extra parts.

[seti88]

[Big s]

The scout is definitely something I need 

[seti88]

[rocketblast]

If that's true, that they are re-releasing the VF-1S Roy Fokker Strike, I'll definitely buy it.  Thank god for reissues, too.  Makes things a bit easier.

And the head arrows are black instead of yellow

True, though Bandai hasn’t included that detail yet for their VF-1S in either Hi Metal or HMR.

Yesssss! I already have a Roy VF1S but it's OK, Roy is my fave pilot. Although I wish they would re-release the plain Regults, I'd love to have 2 more (or even more than 2 if my budget can handle it).

My only worry now is PO madness

Bandai would not bother with that.  I mean look at the TV Max and Miriya sporting DYRL arm super packs.

[rocketblast]

Hopefully it won't be difficult to PO but it is a Focker so it could very well be.  Now I just need to figure out how many I want, at least one or two.  Definitely worth opening and putting on display.

[Mommar]

If this is a two pack it's going to be a web-exclusive.
