What's next for Bandai? (Wish List)

I want a DX 1/48 TV VF-1A Kakizaki.

They've released revival versions of the 25F, 25G, and the 25S with their add-ons. They have to release the RVF-25 with its ghosts, right? Right? Right? There's no way they'd start a squadron and then never finish it like that, right? Right?

yawn-fest for macross..

I was only half joking when I said 'If Bandai looks at which valks did not sell from the DYRL exhibit, then we will never see a DX VF-1A CF'
No one was buying the VF-1As. Everything else sold out except for a couple Ds.

What a let down!

[Chronocidal]

Oh good freaking grief.. yeah, I would absolutely believe they'll base popularity of transforming toys on those.. whatever they are.  

[Shawn]

Jeez I did say half joking

Maybe will raise it to 60%

[Chronocidal]

What are those, anyway?  They.. kind of look like foil-wrapped chocolates like the bunnies you see around Easter.

so far anyway...not sure if reserving the best for last is a coy ploy..😅

Super disappointed no new HMRs announced.😭

But still excited for the DX Fire Valk.........Hopefully they will really go ahead and make it.

[twich]

So I guess I may have missed it, did they give dates for any of the DX Chogokin Valkyries? I know the Tornado Valk is already up for preorder at some places, but don’t know about the VF-27y Super Parts.

No nothing yet, although it's a seven day event. So maybe but nothing yet! 😢

If Bandai could just get the pieces to lock in solidly and show off a couple of innovations in the design, this would be an instant buy for me:

Is that recent or dredging up long forgotten hopes?

[Mog]

The latter.

From 2 years ago. 

Other than some minor misalignments, this was a prototype I could get behind.  Doesn’t take any oddball liberties with the design and looks like an improvement over older releases.

I think this tamashii nation was disappointing for many lines...Macross DX, Saint Seiya Myth cloth, Soul of chogokin(well, except for the Back to the future 3 Delorean Train). Maybe only the figuarts action figures got some exciting news but overall the quality seems to be going down while the prices are going up. Lines with bigger items like Dx, MG etc. aren't getting much love, unfortunately.

It's weird, but how come Bandai has never released a DYRL VF-1S Max toy? I don't think I've seen Yamato or Arcadia release one either and yet it's involved in one of the most iconic scenes from DYRL. 

[Mog]

Which scale and version are we talking?

Because I could have swore Yamato did one in 1/48 scale.  And I know for certain there’s a Yamato 1/60 Version 1 of Max’s DYRL 1A (got it sitting up in the attic).

EDIT:  My bad.  Didn’t see we’re talking about the 1S, not the 1A.

Yamato released a 1/60 DYRL Max VF-1S, both in standard and weathered version.

Thanks for filling me in. That's good to know. It's still strange that Bandai hasn't capitalized on it.

Lost hope, no more wishes.
