DYRL VF-1S Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 51 minutes ago, sqidd said: I'm a little confused.Is this saying that the PO units will start shipping then? Or is it another PO? 48 minutes ago, HardlyNever said: That's just the official release date. Like all other Bandai release dates, they tend to start to trickle out a day or two before. If memory serves correct, you secured a late PO from NY, right @sqidd? I'm guessing you are confused by NY's date of Nov 30th. When PO's drop, the stores don't have a firm release date so they always put like the last day of the release month and then update it to the accurate date when Bandai announces it. So, you'll likely see an email hit from NY sometime in the next week informing you that the date has been changed to Nov 23. Quote

Hey that reminds me......where is the GBP!?! what can they hide in there? Cylinder is so thin.. That or someone goofed up big time, not knowing there was a pillar there... Quote
vladykins Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 The cylinder does have an odd blue shadow block in the middle. Quote

theamarath Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 Sorry I came late to this train. If I didn't pre-order the DYRL 1S, will I be SOL? Also is there any webshop that still has the preorders open? Quote

Digitalfiend Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 (edited) Has there been any news as to when that 1A will be available for preorder? I’d like to try and not miss out on preorder pricing this time around haha. Edited October 24, 2019 by Digitalfiend Quote
Matt Random Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 I surprised that the FAST Packs are displayed without any panels removed. The VF-1A pictures make it look like the top cover on the boosters is removable. Quote
nathans82 Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 So what I'm seeing is a VF-1A Hikaru, VF-1A Hayao and the YF-21 Guld all in one show???? My wallet just ran away. Quote

The VF-1A pictures make it look like the top cover on the boosters is removable. Had the same thought. We've seen the fast packs displayed what feels like half a dozen times now, and not once have we seen any internal detail displayed. And yet, with the whole swap-out emblem thing, it seems like at least the top booster cover comes off. But they refuse to show it. Such a weird situation. Maybe it comes off but has no engine detail? Would they really do something that dumb? 1 minute ago, nathans82 said: So what I'm seeing is a VF-1A Hikaru, VF-1A Hayao and the YF-21 Guld all in one show???? My wallet just ran away.

I'll still pass. Not my favorite valk. Quote
Alphahorizon Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 My poor wallet....well soon to be poor wallet. Who needs lights when you can have more Macross anyways. Quote
Mechapilot77 Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 so they're gonna do the whole dyrl squad huh? i don't see roy though...oddly. i preordered the strike packs set but not paying $330+shipping for a hikaru 1S without the strike pack. hopefully they'll do a roy which i can pretend is both tv and dyrl versions lol...and i'll put the pack on him if i can secure one when his PO is up sometime in the not so near future it seems.

Agent-GHQ Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 What makes u think a Roy won’t get done??? Quote

But to @Lolicon's point, there are only 4 colors in the box and the pic of Hikkie 1A clearly shows 011 instead of his 1S 001. Inquiring minds want to know... Quote
nathans82 Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 I'm hoping on a dream here. But what if the DYRL versions Hikaru, Hayao & Max come with their Super Parts? Quote

I just purchased a 5th Strike Set so hopefully it wasn't for naught. Just wonder how they're going to distribute the 011 insert. Will it be an add-on purchase, included in the Strike Parts, or will separate Strike Parts be sold with the 011? Hopefully, we'll know more over the course of this weekend and coming week. Quote

I see a little bit of engine detail right next to the nozzle, but then a whole lot of nothing where more engine should be. I'm really starting to think Bandai skimped out on internal detail on these parts. And they are a separate accessory even... Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 They might re-issue super/strike parts in the future with more inserts, or just include the inserts themselves with the VF-1, if it's one that needs a new insert. Quote

It would explain why we've never seen it opened till now. Quote
jenius Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 I love the idea of super cheap super parts without detail and the option for more expensive fast packs with it... but expensive fast packs without it? That's shabby. Quote
