The renewal green VF-27 is a completely different green than the original, and completely wrong.  It's the main reason I never bought the newer one---mine is much closer to show-colors.

Mirage's Siegfried is set for a September release, not August as was previously reported. The clearer scans show the date more clearly.

Why did tag hobby put it at August I wonder...

date there does say September, meaning the August slot could still be available. Next preorder date will tell...

Hard to believe they could seemingly just forget the right color for Mirage's plane... especially considering the 1/72, 1/144, and non-scaled kits have already been released with the right colors, not to mention the display prototypes from the very start of the VF-31 DX line.

Like... I can see why they'd think it should be red, and it's not a bad color.  It doesn't change that it's wrong. :huh:

Now way they would release it in these colors, right?  Right?!?!  Is Bandai or Kawamori trying to retcon her colors because of grandma?

This takes "Arcadia" color nonsense to a.......whole.....'nother......level! :nea:

Like you said....everyone else has it right...maybe the mag editors are just trolling the fans....

The lastest VF Masterfiles book has it right too....

It looks like Mirage's Siegfried has a single head laser like the 31J in that pic.

You're right! Preorder cancelled!

In the promo pics for Messer's valk, the eyes on the head is shown as black in fighter mode when it should have been blue. In the case of the VF-31C, it might be a similar mistake (editing maybe?), just on a much larger scale.

What?! Eyes not blue? Preorder cancelled!

Mirage's valk redish? Preorder cancelled!

Chuck's valk might be last and his radar will be shown as round and not oval? Preorder cancelled!

The more of you that cancel your 31C POs, the easier I'll have it when I order mine. ;)

Mirage's VF-31C from Hobby Japan. These are the same stock pics that were shown in Figure King magazine.

It's Millia's color... so it's RED! :yahoo::wub:

I guess, I'm the only one who's happy. ^_^

Maybe Bandai was scared that the customer sees Mirages Valkyrie and the soon to be Arcadia SV-51 Nora Custom both on the shelf and he would mix up the two toys buying the Arcadia one instead :p

Ok. So I did search for that personal color in kanji. It's red purple.

赤紫 (Akamurasaki = Purplish Red

 

I'm good as long that it's not in this color:

I like it red, but i recognise thats a different color to the show. 

Didnt we see the proto on display in fighter mode at a toy show? It looked right there

Different shade from the one in the magazine here:

Here's a good one. Compare it with the DX VF-31J you have then we can have sense how red purple the 31C is going to be. ;)

That version was wrong, the new pics are even more wrong.  They're making it redder, when they should be making it more purple.  

Or again---yeesh, just match their own model kit!
