Chronocidal Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I'm not so interested in the fighter kit so much as I am in seeing how people mod this kit to be fully transformable. Might be heavy, but at that size you've got a ton of room for internal mechanisms too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kajnrig Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 If they (Max Factory) prioritize the fighter mode, then the proportions will be off just enough that it won't look quite right in Battroid mode. But seeing this thing in battroid mode is definitely of interest to me as well. Because c'mon. Of COURSE someone(s) is(/are) going to try and do it.

Chronocidal Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I dunno actually, there will definitely be some proportional issues I'm sure (the nose in particular), but even Hasegawa's 1/48 kit could be mashed-up into a pretty decent battroid. I'm going to look forward to seeing what people do with this. I might even try to get one, depending on the price. I do wish it was molded in more sections though, even just modding it for super packs will require a ton of hacking into those single-piece legs.

True enough, and to be fair, all transforming renditions of the VF-1 look wonky in one form or another. I just prefer the way Hasegawa did it with the three separate kits, each emphasizing that particular mode's strengths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seti88 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 honestly the most suitable place I can thk of that being placed, without obstruction, is hanging off the wall like a huge painting...otherwise it's gonna be a pain to avoid knocking into it and damaging something.. unless of course you put in a display case the size of a table for four...

Xigfrid Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Who would ever want or think about a 1:20 valk seriously? There must be some crazy folks in Max Factory or someone there lost a bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seti88 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 (edited) well its as big as a small table..but yeah it doesnt come close to filling the old aircaraft hangar shed out in the backyard... looks like someone wants to grab it and run/swoosh...

electric indigo Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 You can also see the surface detail in the Last shot. The nose is still a bit long, isn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Extremely, really. It makes the 1/48th Yamato nose look pretty small by comparison. Still not liking the shape of the canopy either. Not a huge deal for me either way though. While I'm definitely curious about the pricing, I also know that I have absolutely no room to put something this big, assembled or not.

antibiotictab Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Another Japanese forum member, Cancer107 went to the Hobby Show yesterday and took some pics. Hmm, I envy him because I don't plan to go there this year. He allow me to introduce them to MW. Thanks. And he asked the person who belongs to Max Factory about its price. He said it will be from 10,000 yen to 15,000 yen at a fixed price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electric indigo Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 The price is quite reasonable for the amount of plastic you get. Detail level is higher than I expected - you can see the AoA sensors at the nose in Cancer107's pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
