twich Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 So, does anyone have any insight as to why this was pushed to W3 2024 on the ShowZStore Website? Twich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twich Bummer that this is delayed, but seeing that we are almost at the tail end of Q1, Q3 sounds more likely than the original release date of "End 2023/ early 2024" on the listings on Taobao which has not been updated since. These delays seem par for the course for products of this nature. In fact, besides the VF-1Ss, some of the proposed VFs became vaporware: The CFs, Angel Birds. I just hope that this will actually be released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radioguy Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Did the Valkyrie Factory CF and Angel Bird have extensive photos like the FuGu does? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twich Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 So I see that the regular release of the Fugo FS-01 VF-1S God of Flame release has also been pushed to Q3 2024. So I guess the hold up is not the stand..... Twich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radioguy Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 From ShowZ on TFW2005 regarding the Fugu "God Of Flame" release: Quote At the end of July and the beginning of August, it is possible to ship both the standard and deluxe editions together.

Radioguy Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 ShowZ re Fugu KO again when I asked if the standard will ship by the end of this month: Quote We are not sure. The factory told us that the shipments would be ready by the end of July or early August. Considering that we need to customize the cartons after receiving the products, the actual international tracking numbers should be available in August. If there are any delays from the factory, then it's hard to say what will happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tekering Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 Will the stand included with the deluxe version be packaged separately, then? 🤔 It's certainly not gonna fit in that G1 box. 🤨 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope they forgot the screwcaps on this and they WILL be present...but I'm giving up on expecting that right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhatBoutMyStar Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 If they're fine with doing the whole Transformers box and using the Transformers name, I don't get why they didn't just go the full route and just do the original Jetfire deco w/ the autobot symbol on the nose cone and FAST packs without any tie-ins to Macross. Why bother with the UN Spacy name and kite (which is missing the middle line) plastered around the valk, as well as the skull squadron jolly rogers on the vert stabilizers and heat shield? Just seems odd to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treatment Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 hmm. between the Roboteched arm-armor and ill-fitting stuff, simply looks alot like repainted stolen mould-rejects... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 Seeing it mounted backwards, all I think of 'knives and stabbing weapons' Someone should create a version of this with a blowsperior type extension so the blade could slice through those dastardly decepticons.

treatment Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 (edited) Guess a few things I noticed that this KO has advantages over the ThreeZero Veritech... white landing gears PT hands hologram pilot seems to have proper hand/arm position cockpit controls. (does this come with a non-hologram pilot? ) I think the AMM-1 missiles are also the properly sized and even red-colored so as to avoid double-roboteching it with the arm-armor...

sh9000 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 Damn I think I will buy one. I love that packaging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 Ok, seriously, if THAT is the packaging, I am absolutely sold on a copy. I almost want to say I don't even care if the QC is lacking, since I've got a couple of the old unbuilt Yamato kits, and I could easily swap in original parts if they're not up to snuff. Heck, I'll paint one up myself in actual Autobot markings, and just store it in that box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 I love the box but don't understand or like the mash up paint scheme. If they went full autobot it could have been epic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKT Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 That packaging is a slick move. I had an opportunity to get KC's God of Flame at a hefty discount very recently, but I think I'll get this instead. 2 hours ago, WhatBoutMyStar said: If they're fine with doing the whole Transformers box and using the Transformers name, I don't get why they didn't just go the full route and just do the original Jetfire deco w/ the autobot symbol on the nose cone and FAST packs without any tie-ins to Macross. Why bother with the UN Spacy name and kite (which is missing the middle line) plastered around the valk, as well as the skull squadron jolly rogers on the vert stabilizers and heat shield? Just seems odd to me. My sentiments exactly. If they went this full route, the sales would go up the roof, and probably from lots of folks who were disappointed by KC's. I'm guessing the packaging was a last minute decision when production of toy was already locked-in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
