Andy NYK Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 This the same Kawamori that let the original DX VF-25's out the door? It did have everything it was suppose to have, just outa proportions and fragile... Quote

no3Ljm Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Nice update David. By the way, not sure if this has been asked or anything. And I'm not sure if I'm going to get one of the Valks upon release. But would it be nice if they will include Walkure 'small' figures with its designated Valk like Mikumo riding on top of the Delta02. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 That's such a simple thing to do---that Bandai will surely not do it for the regular releases, but will instead pack them in with an expensive Tamashii exclusive bundle full of stuff you don't want. Quote
seti88 Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 notwithstanding small props, but if ever someone (bandai or megahouse) releases walkure figurines in such gorgeous detail, i thk a lot of fans would end up buying all the 31 valks just to have them displayed concurrently. imagine this with walkure and 31's... saburo would need to prep his wallet again...

Strangely I don't have any of the female figs from Macross, unless you count the petite Nendos. I would do damage to my wallet to picking Walkure figures just so I could do Idol x VF-31 pics for you guys. On that note, maybe I should pick up some of Macross girls figures.

raptormesh Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 The megahouse MF Movie Sheryl figure goes very well with the DX YF-29.

Graham Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 Pass on big Walkure figures for me, not into idol figures at all. But if Bandai released each VF-31 with an in-scale standing mini-figure of the pilot and the associated Walkure singer, I'd be up for that. Quote

I would say your previous yamoto x macross mash-up really got me searching for those figures. They just scream style when paired together. Alas the priority was valks so there was as far as i ever did go (at one point i did have some of them in cart but didnt pull the trigger. ) So that dilemma is kinda in my head again, should there be any walkure figures to go withthe 31's...(which looking how there already are ranka and sheryl dolfies..they probably will!) And knowing how integrated the walkure are with the valks now in delta, the pull is there to get a accompanying figure... The megahouse MF Movie Sheryl figure goes very well with the DX YF-29. Yea not far fetched to thk some forum-ers have her accompanying the valks... Pass on big Walkure figures for me, not into idol figures at all. But if Bandai released each VF-31 with an in-scale standing mini-figure of the pilot and the associated Walkure singer, I'd be up for that. mini figures may be too small to show details on the walkure outfits but if they can pull it off, all the better to them....hopefully the price wont reflect accordingly too Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 pass on the figures, there's a dedicated figure thread for macross and non macross figures, please leave that stuff there, there was a point i couldn't browse the valk section at work bc i would randomly be ambushed by plastic fan service. i want to see mechs not dolls, (save myself embarrassment @ work) only figures i like are the ones that fit inside the cockpit, though i understand the charm of the figures that came w/ the arcadia fire valk Quote

But if Bandai released each VF-31 with an in-scale standing mini-figure of the pilot and the associated Walkure singer, I'd be up for that. It would be nice to have standing in scale mini figs to go along with the Valks, but the way pilots are painted with the Bandai valks they just look like blobs if they could a better job like the Yamato/Arcadia pilot figs it would so much nicer.

I still would prefer S.H.Figuarts of the idols to be posed in front of the Valkyries. Due to the smaller scale they would not distract that much from the Valkyrie and don't take up much display space. And you could pose them in any pose you want (man that sounds dirty ). Quote

Kanedas Bike Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 OT: There is no way I'm bringing any of my Valkyries to work, and I (now) work with a bunch of IT folks that may actually know what Macross is. Forward thinking, the idea of anyone at my desk trying to transform my DX Chogokin VF-31 makes me verrrrry angry. / -b. Quote

How about a SH Figuarts Freyja that clips on top of the DX VF-31? Just imagine a Delta episode where each Walkure girl is surfin' on top of a VF-31 in macronized size... No? I think it'd be pretty cool. Edited January 20, 2016 by Vifam7 Quote

DARKWIND Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Been out of the loop for a while but I liked it, plan to get 3. Main colors black/grey, red and blue. Still not up for preorder yet huh? It gives me time to fill my wallet. . . Quote

I was listening to the Speaker Podcast about the Kawamori exhibit and they talked about how the VF-19 Kai had a guitar in one of the earlier concepts. I would be all for a VF-31 container that could transform into an electric guitar. It doesn't has to be in the show. Could be a funny web shop exclusive. Quote

Scyla Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 GET OFF MY LAWN. Drum sets? Just kidding. What I really like to have is a knife sheath on the forearm armor and some other gimmick in the next one. Maybe there is enough room for a transformable trumpet? I mean someone has to provide the trumpets from Ikenai Borderline right? Maybe it could have a transformable shield that folds out of the forearm armor to provide more protection. Since I really liked the shields on the VF-25 Valkyries it would be nice to have something similar on the VF-31. They could paint an image of the idol onto it to make it more flashy right? Quote
