I’ll see if I can come up with something. Probably, needs to be relatively simple and similar to existing themes.

Honestly, I think something canon like Cavaliers would be the way to go.

You’re probably right. It is a cool looking scheme that isn’t too complicated for a company to make.

Yeah, this is curious....it seems that they had that initial production run, then there hasnt been anything for almost a half a year.  I am waiting for the VF-1J Hikaru and/or the M&M VF-1J's  I think this would make a great first valk for my 10 year old.

another 3 weeks.

So, I am kinda confused.  I know they released a 1/72 VF-1S late last year, then again like a month later.  They were promising a second production run that has not materialized.  The VF-1J is delayed until end of July.....it is now Aug. 2nd.  So, what is the status of the 1/72 VF-1's?  I really would like to pick one up, but don't want to pay over $125 for it.  Something about it reminds me of the 1/72 Yamato VF-19A VF-X2 version that got me into collecting Macross toys way back in the day.....forget how long ago that was.....

Here's the breakdown:
VF-1S Focker released in January. They worked something out with the factory to make some early and the rest later. The 'later' group was the second round of POs that was due out originally in April (i think) but is now due at the end of this month.

The black/gold VF-1S Fokker should be out or out soon... i don't think i've seen it in regular people's hands yet.

The VF-1J Rick is a December release. I think it always has been

The 1/12 Rick Hunter figure was due July of last year is now due by the end of this month

The 1/12 Lisa Hayes figure is also due in December.

So, we should reasonably expect the Lisa Hayes figure to be out by December... of next year.  <_<

I got an email last week from BBTS about the VF-1S reissue. It was similar with the ones posted above, though no offer for shirts. It stated that it is due in Sept. I wonder if the reissue will recolonization that ridiculous Green stand.

I have one inbound from HK

It's official street date is 8/12 as per KC.

For those looking for one hit up KC you might just get lucky..  $112 plus shipping if they still have them.

 

I asked early and was told "sorry, we won't carry it". I asked again today and was told "sorry, we're sold out."

Well my "Dark Gold Version" Fokker TV 1S arrived today.

Typical packaging with an outer and inner box which is standard on KC releases.     I am not gonna open this one up until I complete my game room renovations and have someplace to display it.      581/660 so fairly late to end of the run.

 

I am more interested to see if they kept that Neon Green Display Stand with this release.  ;)

I ordered one but I imagine it won't be here for another week. Looking forward to it!

Glad to hear you found one.

I have a fairly long email chain with KC and to their credit they are pretty responsive.

I am still nagging them about the Fokker 1S SD version,   which I have but is missing one of the heads.

Cool! I'll have to check if I have a copy of Hikaru/Rick coming later after work. I have a copy of Hikaru on the way too--can't wait to see it in person.

I also got an update on my TV Roy VF-1S w/Parts box set last week, so my first 1:72 scaled Valkyrie is on its way as well. :D

I've moved since I placed my pre-order.  I later contacted Kitz Concept and they asked me for my new address.  The automated email I got today from PayPal still list my old address.  I'm crossing my fingers that it is being shipped to my current address.
