jeniusornome Posted June 17, 2020 Posted June 17, 2020 I have actually considered that, but I have a hard time buying a transforming toy that I'm never going to transform. I actually really like the 262's design, all three modes, but I'm still not sold on it. .... I bet it'd look really good next to my 31F though.... Quote

I hope for a good YF-21 but I don't know looking at the prototypes displayed. Do you think it's just the belly flaps that need to be fixed? I feel the proportions in general aren't right. Quote

Since Keith's Sv-262 still going for below retail these days, now is the best time to get one! Once stock slowly dries up, then prices will just go north like any other previous 'less desirable' Macross DX Chogokins.. Even if other Sv-262 variants come out one day, Keith's still a unique mold.. Quote

Do you think it's just the belly flaps that need to be fixed? I feel the proportions in general aren't right. I think it's the main issue for me. The other pics seem to be at angles that distort some of the proportions. There's a video or two floating around and it looks pretty good overall. We'll see what happens. Quote
borgified Posted June 19, 2020 Posted June 19, 2020 This is a old video from Nov 8/2019. Hopefully that there are some changes for the next upcoming Tamashii Nations Show if it's still a go. Quote
HardlyNever Posted June 19, 2020 Posted June 19, 2020 Eh, it's not perfect, but assuming what we see is fully transformable, and has all the appropriate accessories (fast packs, guns), I'd buy what they already showed. The fact that they didn't show any accessories lends credence to the idea that they are in fact still working on the mold. I do hope they improve it before retail, but I'm pretty impressed with what we've already seen. Quote
Ridden001 Posted June 19, 2020 Posted June 19, 2020 I wish they would pick up on the HMR releases. That line is my absolute favorite. They would be the last that I would sell. I enjoy handling those much more than the DX. Quote
spacemanoeuvres Posted June 19, 2020 Posted June 19, 2020 She's got a fat ass but I still like it :D I think the consensus was that the Yamato looked better in fighter and the DX looked better in battroid except the belly flaps and maybe something about the arms. I think it looks pretty good. The HMR prototype looked excellent as well and I would buy 4-5 copies if/when they are released. Quote

But, if they nail Battroid and Gerwalk I will be very excited. The Yamato nailed Fighter. Between the two I think we may have a shot at having something that looks great in all three modes. Fingers crossed. And yes, more HMR's please! Quote
Rogueload Posted June 20, 2020 Posted June 20, 2020 Yeah if Bandai nails battroid mode on the YF-21 that would be a win for me! Quote

People actually want Delta toys? Quote

Lolicon Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 I want the white Draken and the remaining super parts for the E and S. It'll be hella lame if Bandai ends up Rod'ing us on those. We know for sure the YF-21 and Kakizaki 1A are coming. After that we'll have to wait and see. Quote

jeniusornome Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 I had the delta movie on in the background the other day and forgot Chuck was piloting the 31E with an armor set on it at the end. Maybe they’ll do another extremely limited slightly modified set of those to fit on the 31E. Quote
seti88 Posted June 24, 2020 Posted June 24, 2020 (edited) With VF-1S roy taking the November slot, there goes the chances for a YF-21 or GBP release this year... not exactly complaining...i can wait... most likely we will see updated news for the 21/GBP during this october's tamashii nations...

I don't think either is really a surprise. Ignoring the pandemic which certainly slowed things down, we've never seen a physical prototype of the GBP and the YF-21 we saw stated there would be revisions so it wasn't a finalized design either. I really do hope we see both in their final form in October, that would make for a pretty good show. Quote
recon Posted June 24, 2020 Posted June 24, 2020 Hoping for a VF-11B with Fast Packs and maybe a VF-11C variant with some tweaks in the mold design since we are at there. Hopefully bandai will also consider doing the M7 variants in particular the VF-19 and VF-17 Last but not least for the 1/48 DX line, a VF-1S Minmay Guard as a tamashii exclusive would be a nice addition to top things off Quote
HayateAltoHunter Posted June 24, 2020 Posted June 24, 2020 Really wish Bandai would announce an Arad Molders VF-31 Kairos also. Quote

You're going to wait for the official announcement from Bandai on when are they going to make a Arad 31a with the Dragonhead Itasha. You think that Bandai is going to drop everything and say " F*** the DX VF-1 lineup and the DX YF-21. Where going to make the rest of Delta series" just to make you happy?? Quote
jenius Posted June 24, 2020 Posted June 24, 2020 Well Bandai did just make a YF-29 so another 31 release is certainly on the table, especially if we're getting more Delta next year. Quote
borgified Posted June 24, 2020 Posted June 24, 2020 That is true @jenius, however @HayateAltoHunter has no patience at all.. Doesn't the addage go like this "Patience is a Vertue" and we try to practice it, however some have less tolerance than others. Cue up the song: "Blame it (on the Alcohol)" - written by Jammie Foxx (ft. T-pain) Quote
Lolicon Posted June 24, 2020 Posted June 24, 2020 Was the VF-4 the only HMR Macross release this year? Looks like Bandai's releases are set for 2020. Quote

Arad’s armor parts last August were the last macross product with a new mold, so the product team should have lots of time to come up with something new. and hope working from home hasn’t made any designs worse...heh!

Isn’t this a “wish list” thread? I just wish it got made at some point, nothing to do with patience or anything. But don’t worry. No more wish postings coming from me. Quote
Lolicon Posted June 24, 2020 Posted June 24, 2020 I'm not hopeful at the prospect of an Arad 31A when Bandai won't even finish off the super packs for the squadron. Show came out four years ago. Four years after Frontier, we were almost done with the second version of the VF-25. Quote

You can still post your wishes, however there is a disclaimer on my behalf. If you guys see anything in blue text from me, don't take it too hard. Just trying to brake the fourth wall here as it can get really stale. Apologies on my behalf if you took it the wrong way @HayateAltoHunter. Edit: Based on @Lolicon's write up, it's going to be a while before be get anything from the Delta series again for the second movie. Edited June 24, 2020 by borgified Quote
HayateAltoHunter Posted June 24, 2020 Posted June 24, 2020 No problem @borgified- I don't post often, but truly appreciate the community that these forums bring together. Quote
