Major Focker Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 bring it on. there's a whole bunch of MaK stuff to display it with. not to mention F1 cars and their accompanying pit crews. Quote
MechTech Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 It DOES sound cool! I bet it's like $400 and hopefully detailed thoroughly. - MT Quote
jenius Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 It says 2016 on it but no prototypes? I'll remain skeptical until I see more. Quote
Major Tom Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Max Factory is also making a DYRL 1/20 Minmay: http://www.taghobby.com/1-0/1-2/%E4%B8%8D%E6%96%B7%E6%9B%B4%E6%96%B0-2016%E5%B9%B42%E6%9C%887%E6%97%A5-wonder-festival2016%E5%86%AC-maxfactory%E5%B1%95%E5%93%81/ Quote
jvmacross Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 The face on the 1/20 Minmay looks wrong to me.... I'll continue to stick with this one for now..... Quote
GMK Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Does anyone know whether Max Factory do injection molding? Or is this likely to be resin etc? Quote
Major Focker Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 long resin wings will be problematic. i would think that they would just contract out the production, pretty much like Arcadia and many toy companies Quote
Big s Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Max factory does injection kits. The new dougram kits the chamber from that show I can't even try to spell are some examples. Quote
macsam Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 looks like they have progressed from window outline to cardboard cutout.... Quote
GMK Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 May well be the last VF-1 I buy. Unless they release a Battroid. Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 Don't forget the Bandai transformable 1/35 VF-1J (if it's not vaporware yet) Quote
Aye Aye Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 Has there been any updates on this beast? I haven't built any MF kits before, and didn't know they made model kits. Only thing I see via Google search is still from Feb. Quote
raptormesh Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 Wonder if it's big enough for actuators on the flaps and horizontal stabs. Quote
slide Posted April 22, 2016 Posted April 22, 2016 Wonder if it's big enough for actuators on the flaps and horizontal stabs. Having seen the detail Airfix crams into their 1/24th scale aircraft, I should think so! Quote
spanner Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 (edited) Apologies, had another stupid moment.. Edited April 26, 2016 by spanner Quote
peter Posted April 28, 2016 Posted April 28, 2016 How many people bought the 1/24 resin kit? http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=34259 I have one of these beasts, but haven't touched it yet. Quote

Jefuemon Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 This is just a first-run prototype. Hold your worries. Looking at the kit weighing 6 kg unbuilt, and the decal sheet being as big as a page of newspaper. Quote
Petrov27 Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 pretty cool - hoping they include or offer more figures in same scale to go along with... Quote
Big s Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Have they stated a price yet. By the looks of it they may be going large, but simple to keep the cost down kinda like the large scale scale simple gaundam bandai put out a couple years ago. Quote
sh9000 Posted June 18, 2016 Posted June 18, 2016 This will still looking pretty awesome next to my 1/18 collection. I'll probably buy this. Quote
505thAirborne Posted June 18, 2016 Posted June 18, 2016 (edited) As long as this thing isn't some $500.00+ web exclusive, sign me up!! I'll bet when the completed model is ready to go this VF will have every detail imaginable put into it! Edited June 18, 2016 by 505thAirborne Quote
GMK Posted June 18, 2016 Posted June 18, 2016 As long as this thing isn't some $500.00+ web exclusive, sign me up!! Probably wouldn't discourage me... Quote
505thAirborne Posted June 18, 2016 Posted June 18, 2016 Probably wouldn't discourage me... Then I'll have to enjoy the pictures of yours when completed! Quote

slide Posted June 19, 2016 Posted June 19, 2016 (edited) $400, $500 I'll be picking one up for sure. hmm... 2 rifles and my PAL fees, or a 1/20th scale VF-1... Decisions... Edited June 19, 2016 by slide Quote
GMK Posted June 19, 2016 Posted June 19, 2016 Then I'll have to enjoy the pictures of yours when completed! You're meant to build them?! Quote
