M'Kyuun Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 I just want them to finish and release their YF-21. After that, it'd be nice to see Chogokin versions of other lesser known valks, like the VF-9, VF-5000, VF-14, or a Variable Glaug. Give the old VF-1 a rest for awhile. I'd be down for a DX VF-4 if Bandai gave it articulated shoulders. I've always thought the immovable shoulders on the Yammie, beautiful toy that it is, was a bit hindering to a combat mech. Yamato also made their battroid's legs longer and thinner than the original lineart would suggest to favor the fighter mode. I'd love to see Bandai do a take strictly working from the lineart's proportions for a shorter, stockier battroid. The VF-4 has one of my favorite battroid modes, and I'd love a more art-faithful toy of it, with lots of articulation, b/c I'm greedy like that.

technoblue Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 I'm hoping that the YF-21 gets the same treatment as the YF-19 and that Bandia and Arcadia both get a chance to improve on the older Yamato designs. I think everyone wins in that scenario, but Bandai certainly has a significant head start with the prototype that got good visibility here some years ago.

TommyWMan Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Would love a rerun of the YF-19 full set pack. Maybe it will come around alongside the YF-21. Also hoping for a rerun of the vanilla 31A Kairos. Bandai sure left a lot of money on the table with how exclusive it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californium Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 With the release of the DX Chogokin VF-1D, I'm probably done collecting Macross stuff. But there are a few ways Bandai might entice me back for another round . . . - Finish the Hi-Metal Destroids - Hi-Metal Q-rau, Millia colors, TV style - DX Chogokin SDF-1 Macross, TV style (How the hell has this not happened yet?)

lechuck Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 My hope is that Bandai wraps up their DX SDF/DYRL line with a 1/48 VF-4. But preferably not reusing the Yamato template, I would like to have a much better Battroid that does the lineart more justice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seti88 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) *dreams* I hope someone makes this and whacks bandai for not getting down to it.

Kakizaki2021 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 This is truly a newb question: What events and when if annually, announce the upcoming releases? Other franchises (American) showcase them through ToyFair, and ComicCon. I see Tamashii will be in New York in a couple of days for ComicCon, I think. But are there other sources to get news of what is around the corner. Many overseas keep up with magazines but I am without this resource and US Google doesn't help much.

Thank you Just follow Macrossworld for the scoops! Event wise, due to the HG/BW situation, Macross showcases, are mainly centered around toy fair events in JP. So, July and Oct/Nov for TN. Am not sure if that changes soon with the HG/BW so called peace treaty, but bandai doesnt seem to be playing along those new lines yet.
