neoexcaliber Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 Is it just me, or does the blue look a lot more toned down compared to the photos we've been seeing lately? I hope it's not a white balance thing but even the grays and whites look more neutral. Quote
jenius Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 Judging by that pinky nail it would seem our money goes to fund a cocaine addiction. Quote
charger69 Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 Judging by that pinky nail it would seem our money goes to fund a cocaine addiction. You are so mean! That pinky nail is for opening missile bays and landing gears . . . . Kidding Quote
seti88 Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 Look at the top left of the open box. Alternate parts to allow the attachment of existing ghost boosters. Nice! i hope its old boosters and not there is a new one incoming... Quote
Keiichi Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 Cool that the art design on the box is consistent with the VF-0D. No UN Spacy tampo on the FAST packs is less cool. Quote
Scream Man Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 Man i saw the pics on the FB feed and thought she was out i may not be getting one, but that doesnt mean i dont want her! Quote
neoexcaliber Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 Man i saw the pics on the FB feed and thought she was out i may not be getting one, but that doesnt mean i dont want her! I'm guessing it'll be out by this weekend. That's only 4 days away. Quote
ArchieNov Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 Now I kinda regret not buying the Ghost Booster when I had the chance Quote
wmkjr Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 (edited) Just needs some glowing feathers in the boxart. Now to make some space for more boxes. Edit: In keeping with the theme. Roy's box art should be: Edited: Edited August 24, 2015 by wmkjr Quote
seti88 Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 Just realised i didnt get any email to pay on my pre-order with Nippon Yassan. I emailed them and they said email to ask for payment should be out soon... Should i pay anyway beforehand, or would there be instances i cant get my money back should they not have stock... Quote
Dimis Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 I'm so excited for the vf0a Me too. Since i will not be getting VF-0S and i have no VF-0 either. I held on for so long! Quote
eggy99 Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 AUD totally tanked today because of Chinese stock market drop so this is even more expensive for us Aussies. Looking forward to seeing everyone's photos. Quote
Loop Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 Looks like the right wing does not have the modex tampo printed on it. Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 Also looks like they are sticking with the death grip fighter mode stand adapter. Quote
Jasonc Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 Very excited for this one. I like this one over the 0S simply because of the real world coloring to it. These releases are killing the wallet though. Quote
Scyla Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 (edited) I really hope they are thinking about reissuing the Ghost booster. I'm unable to find one for a good price. [edit:] As mentioned somewhere on this board it is rumored that Arcadia has only the molds from the Macross 7 Valkyries onwards and the V2 VF-1. So I assume they don't have the molds for the Ghost booster. I wonder if they still have the CAD designs since I can't imagine that the design needs to be fixed. It is probably to expensive to retool the drone for this release. [edit2:] Edited for clarification. Edited August 24, 2015 by Scyla Quote
treatment Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 Pics of the packaging for the upcoming VF-0A from Arcadia's Twitter feed. image.jpg image.jpg So based on those, it's Black/Dark-Grey back-knees accents now. The previous Blue was just another Arcadia troll? Quote
treatment Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 Oh, and yellow-tipped missiles now, too? It was red in the yamato versions, iirc. Quote
spanner Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 AUD totally tanked today because of Chinese stock market drop so this is even more expensive for us Aussies. Looking forward to seeing everyone's photos. I paid for mine much earlier when the exchange rate was a little better! But i doubt it wouldn't amount to a huge saving.. Quote

Where are you getting this info from? They have the ghost booster Molds but 96% won't release them bc they aren't profitable. It'll be great if they just can release the vf-1 strike packs but even those the company won't greenlight. when users asked mr. K last month, he said sorry nothing definate. Quote

Nippon yasan is pretty good on their preorders so you should be good . But the dollar to yen just drop big since last Friday so now it cost a bit more . Quote

Well if you're going to say they do have the mold the least you can do is point to the tweet or wherever you got your info from. Quote

Sorry, too lazy, i already talked about the ghost booster to death. I'm probably quoting from the same imaginary sources you have. Quote
jenius Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 I usually make it pretty clear I'm talking about rumor, you refuted someone so it sounds like you have facts... Quote
Scyla Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 I'm sorry if I misunderstood some of the posts here so I edited my post to make my thoughts more clearly. Quote
seti88 Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 Nippon yasan is pretty good on their preorders so you should be good . But the dollar to yen just drop big since last Friday so now it cost a bit more . Thats good to hear! I did email them too but of course they naturally say pay now and receive your item later! Good to hear no major complaints with em... Sorta wished paid beforehand when the rates were btr but hey the currency wars isnt something you can accurately predict... Quote
eggy99 Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 Box is really nice looking, but the shadow detailing on the VF-0A is completely wrong for the background. HAHAHA! XD So all the Macross Zero releases are looking to be following this kind of perspective design for the box (Sky and VF-0 front on slightly angle. Will Arcadia run out of different sky backgrounds? Curious what background they will use for VF-0S Fokker custom. HAHA, why am I more interested in the box design??? o____o Quote
wmkjr Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 (edited) Look up 16 20 posts. That's what they should use j/k . Edit: Haha. I type too slow and don't know how to count backwards. What the heck was I doing? Edited August 25, 2015 by wmkjr Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 Also looks like they are sticking with the death grip fighter mode stand adapter. I dislike Yamato/Arcadia's stand adapters. So many of them require too much effort to put on or take off and often require partial transformation just to do so. Either that or they're completely ineffective like the ones for the 19's which also lead to paint scraping. Although Bandai's stands are not exactly pretty either, at least it is extremely easy to place and remove valks. Quote
barurutor Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 Just received payment request from N-Y, got less than a week(!) to pay Guess stock will be coming in soon then. Quote
