David Hingtgen Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 The canard colors don't match up---the "display cut-outs" all have red stripes, regardless of valk colors. The new one showing the variant types has "color-coded" stripes on the canards. Wonder which is correct. Also---would *love* a bunch of VF-31A's, and for them to be the mid-season replacement/upgrade----but being an older variant, that's unlikely. Hmmn, maybe Mirage's "grandma Milia" etc can show up in a bright red VF-31A... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seti88 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) VF-31 overload!! the A variant!!

IXTL Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Snip The image also reveals the 31 variant types piloted by the Delta Squadron. We also have the variant types of the main cast. Delta-05 (Hayate) - VF-31J Delta-01 (Arad) - VF-31S Delta-02 Messer) - VF-31F Delta-03 (Chuck) - VF-31E Delta-04 (Mirage) - VF-31C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

no3Ljm Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 The arms in gerwalk are much thicker and have blue stripes. The battroid arms are slimmer and have no stripes. Oh. I see what you mean. No wonder in the world of Macross, the 'blue' color always and will be the problem. Especially the 'shade'. This one needs a lot of Reds to match my Red, Black, White/Tan Valk collections.

Mommar Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) So on the CG model the pod can be stored in battroid mode unlike on the YF-30. Hopefully that's the case with the toy as well Yup. Kind of a catch 22 on Kawamori's part. I think he was trying to deviate from the 25 era look by putting the nosecone someplace else. But then the pod couldn't be stored anywhere and he capitulated and just did the 25 style nose dive in the chest again. Okay, just imagine an A variant in the CF color scheme similar to the 25A CF. THAT would look awesome. We can only hope it happens. Also, that black one is guaranteed to be a bitch to pre-order.

Mommar Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 This is at a toy show right? It's fascinating that they're showing off the 31A. I'm wondering if they are planning to make a toy from it in a similar vein to the YF-25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seti88 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Am liking the VF-31A look the more i see it. Plus there might be possibility for a different turrent config? Since the 5 valks support the walkure, i dont thk the CF looking 31A needs to carry mobile chargers right? Plus am not sure why but the semi circle head laser joints on the 31S head seem to irk me. Its not so streamlined into fighter mode like the D02 in this regard...hmmmm.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 OR... everyone have the same Speaker/Charging Boomerang Pods. The boomerang drones are stored in the back of the Valk's lower legs, not in the charger pod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
