It would be easy for them to rationalize also as black is an awful color for anime. Black vehicles are sometimes depicted as dark blue so they can be discerned from dark backgrounds. Quote

Perhaps...but not in this case....it's actually just briefly shown in a quick hanger shot in all it's dark blue glory.....anything too far off from the color that Yamato released it in would be a fail...in either case, I would be shocked if released...even in black!

derex3592 Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 Anyone who owns the Yamato Caveliers Valk can attest to the fact it DOES NOT look like those promo pics! It basically almost looks black on a shelf in normal room lighting. Quote

The point WAS that releasing a Cavaliers VF-1A that was ACTUALLY black would not be canon.... Here you go..... http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/36375-yamato-v2-160-vf-1a-cavaliers/ Want a black VF-1 from Bandai? Pray they do copy Yamato and release a version of their non-canon "Stealth" VF-1J which does have "some" black in it's overall paint scheme.... Quote

But I'll still get a black Cavaliers if they do it. Quote
jenius Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 The point wasn't so much that Bandai WOULD make a Cavaliers black, just that they wouldn't copy Yamato non canon schemes. Cavaliers or some new homage scheme are the best bet for a stealth looking scheme (and still, very long shots). We have a lot of primary and secondary schemes to get through before that's a thought.

sh9000 Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 If I had a larger scale motorcycle for the VF-1S to ride then I’d probably do this pose over again. Quote

borgified Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 How dark was the Black in the 1/48 Yammie 25th Anniversary VF-1 (same as the YF -19 I take it)? If a DX 1a Cavaliers was made, then a darker shade of Blue would used to make it different to Max's 1J. Quote
