Ridden001 Posted March 30, 2019 Posted March 30, 2019 Off topic kind of, but some have said they think the gun is too big. If you consider it is a 55mm ,almost twice the size of the A-10 cannon, then in gun pod form, it would be massive. It is designed to smash through alien armor. I also remember that episode where Hikaru finds the flower post Dolza bombardment and the gun pod is pretty beefy underneath the Vf-1S in the flight scene. Quote

But he hasn't posted any since Sept 2018 based on his activity. Unless, someone should request some moderator to change it. Otherwise, it's only IXTL who can change it. Quote
seti88 Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 (edited) He rage(?) quitted after the NY 31A debacle... am sure the moderators can just remove the J at the end...unless of course forum bugs are preventing changes ... Edited March 31, 2019 by seti88 Quote
Gabe Q Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Or someone can just start a brand new thread for the VF-1A. Quote
sh9000 Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Actually someone made a DX Chogokin VF-1A Max thread and it was locked. Quote

Convectuoso Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 I actually think it's better to have a thread for each line instead of one for each variant Quote

Every other toy has it’s individual thread why not this one? Chris Didn’t notice that there were a locked DX VF-1A thread before. I guess, they just want the threads to be streamlined to one line(?). But then again, some random Q&A thread shows up even though we have the Newbie Q&A thread already. And those are not being deleted nor moved to the related threads. But I also do prefer one thread for one line. Quote
jenius Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 For a while they wanted smaller more specific threads and were retiring threads to mega topics but I'm guessing new forum software made bigger threads more palatable so better to keep as much of the conversation in one place. Quote
Dobber Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 (edited) Yeah I guess that’s true. The more I look at it, yeah, the threads are more mega threads for particular lines. A mod should be able to easily change this thread title though. Chris Edited March 31, 2019 by Dobber Quote

sh9000 Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 If a VF-1S and VF-1D ever get released, this thread title will change to “DX Chogokin VF-1J (and VF-1A) (and VF-1S) (and VF-1D)”. Quote

nightmareB4macross Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Why not just keep it simple and call it “Bandai DX (1:48) VF-1 Valkyrie “ Quote

David Hingtgen Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 DYRL Max 1A, SFDM Max 1A, SFDM Max 1J, DYRL Max 1S, Hikaru DYRL 1A, Hikaru SFDM 1J, Hikaru DYRL 1S....I don't think we should do "a thread per release" for this. Quote
seti88 Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 Much better to have 1/48 vf-1 related discussions in one thread for tracking....including the incoming GBP and Supers too... Quote

JetJockey Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 They have to get around to Max's DYRL VF-1S eventually. I'll wait for that version. And maybe it will be battle damaged. The TV version does look good though. But I have an old Yamato Max DYRL VF-1A that's fine. Quote

But it safe to assume that it's 4pm JST. There's some PO back then that it happened around 7pm JST. Can't remember what item was that. Quote
