no3Ljm Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 ○○ - ○○ ○○○○○○ VF-4G ライトニング To think that I just bought my second one half a month ago. I'm just only IN for this if it's the Flashback version. And will sell my other one just in case. If not, I'll pass if it's just a straight Yamato reissue. But yeah, to be honest, it's a good move for Arcadia. Atleast people who misses the first Yamato releases and for people who just started collecting Macross this IS their chance to buy the Holy Grail in MSRP. Keep it up, Arcadia! Quote
anubis20 Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 i see YF-19 repaint with T-Rex Frontier fast pack Quote
Sandman Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 Finally!! If it is a vf-4g. Not sure why it's taken them so long to release it. This mold would be in my top 5 to release. Maybe it was a licensing issue. Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 I am kind of surprised people are seeing anything other than a VF-4, even without taking into account what licenses Arcadia may or may not have. Quote
wmkjr Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 (edited) You sure it's not this? j/k I'm one of those that missed the VF-4G the first time so I'll be happy if it is released. edit: Someone did a good job of blurring the pixelated photo on the facebook page. I tried the same thing and got this: Edited October 2, 2015 by wmkjr Quote

Sandman Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 edit: Someone did a good job of blurring the pixelated photo on the facebook page. I tried the same thing and got this: blurred.jpg That pic totally proves it a VF-4. The question is what paint scheme and will it be under $400? Quote
Old Man Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 Looks to me like they're showing us the Yamato VF-4G... Quote
wmkjr Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 1/60 SDF-1 Macross confirmed I thought it was a 1/60 Spartan? Anyways, like mentioned above I hope that it's somebody's VF-4G Yamato with the skull stickers on for a preview and will do the whole color/scheme thing later on. Quote
3D-Brainx Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 There is pretty much no doubt that that is a vf-4. Mr K mentioned that he wanted to make the fb2012 version but they had some problems with the licence. That's Yamatos G on the picture anyways, it doesn't have the tan nose cone. Quote
Golden Arms Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 A rerelease of a 4G is a no brainer. It sold out and the demand was astronomical on the secondary market. I already own one, but will be in for a another as it was a near perfect toy. If 2016 will have more re releases, then they should go with the Max VF-1S and Max and Milia vf-1j's. Ditto for the SDF-1. Quote
DyNo Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 I'm going to put a retail price of $390 on this if it really is a new VF-4 when it comes out.. Quote
Valkyrie23 Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 It looks like a VF-4G because of the nose cone. But the stabilizers look black which look like our boy, Hikaru. Quote
505thAirborne Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Seems very clear most of us would like to see the VF-4 released, up to and including Hikaru's FB version, this and a TV SDF-1 would pretty much complete me! Quote
Sildani Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Very nifty. Be funny if it turns out to be a VF-9. Quote
Old Man Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Very nifty. Be funny if it turns out to be a VF-9. I wish, but I'm not seeing any forward-swept wings Quote
Raptor One Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 I am kind of surprised people are seeing anything other than a VF-4, even without taking into account what licenses Arcadia may or may not have. Pretty sure those are mostly facetious. Very nifty. Be funny if it turns out to be a VF-9. I wish, but I'm not seeing any forward-swept wings One day Quote
Mommar Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 I'll get a third VF-4 for Gerwalk mode if it happens. Quote
mog_kupo Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 I'll be all over a VF-4 whether it's the old Yamato or the FB version, I couldn't get one when it was released and when I was ready to go for it the price was waaay up Quote
seti88 Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 does it look like the VF-14 silluotte folks? if it is am gonna find a enclosed space and squeel... Quote
F360 Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 I wonder if they will add any improvements ? Quote
jenius Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Seems highly unlikely... if there will be a difference I'd guess it would relate to color... like they'd make it lighter or darker gray (though I would love to hear it's the DYRL FB version). Quote
Reaction Warhead Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 If this new release is the VF-4, I just might get this as my first Arcadia valk. Of course, knowing Arcadia this thing is probably going to cost 400 USD (before shipping of course). Arcadia business plan is very anti-sculptor, that is they are going to sculpt the consumer themselves first rather than let other people do it. Quote
Gundam@EFSF Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 VF-4！ from facebook MFM 540,960https://scontent-hkg3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpa1/v/t1.0-9/12122854_884544864954486_98398206763724417_n.jpg?oh=ecac75043e96b6fcfe4b55b226d9263c&oe=56A86789[/img] Quote
CRYO Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Will it comes in Hikaru colour? They knew its the hot cake every fans wants Quote
Darotower Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) Like most of the people said here, I will buy a VF-4 again only if they release on proper Macross Flashback 2012 colours Edited October 3, 2015 by Darotower Quote
valkryenov Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Like most of the people said here, I will buy a VF-4 again only if they release on proper Macross Flashback 2012 colours Well if I remember correctly that's probably not going to happen as I read somewhere in mwf that the reason yamato had to release the vf-4g is due to big west reluctance to give them the paint scheme permission mainly because in fb2012 the vf-4 is only seen in fighter mode, hence the vf-4g paint scheme from vfx which clearly shows all three modes. But I hope that changes now. I'd live to buy another one so that at the very least even if its a vf-4g, I will ne able to use all those skull squadron decals from the yamato one. Quote
Frogze Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 The reason why BG wouldn't let Yamato have the FB paint scheme really feels mind-boggling to me but I guess it's the way licensing works. However I'm definitely in for a VF-4G since I didn't get it the first time it was released because I was waiting for the FB paint scheme. Quote
Moosey Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 I'm sorry for those folks dying to get their hands on a tan nosed FB VF-4, a bit of a disappointment I'll grant you.I'm delighted for me (and many others) though who didn't get one of these first time around. I'd love to say it was patience paying off that means I might get one at MSRP this time, but in honesty it had more to do with the scary aftermarket prices! Quote
