Looking for a figure with a funky-looking head in battroid mode


Recommended Posts

Posted

In the market for a new toy and thought I'd come here for guidance. 

I know 'funky-looking' could mean just about anything, really, but for reference: I really like head bits of the YF-25 Prophecy, the VE-1 Elint Seeker, and the VF-22S Sturmvogel II. Particularly the 'bubble' head of the YF-25. Any other bubble heads out there? Hopefully I'm making myself clear and not just being a pain in the ass.

The Super Ostrich is probably a little *too* funky-looking for me.

In all likelihood I'll mostly be displaying it in Gerwalk mode, because a plane with arms and legs wearing disco heels is about as funky-looking as it gets, but I guess I'd like to be able to mix things up a bit.

SV-262 is about as disco-valk as you can get...

We're up to 6 individual head molds for the VF-31 so you might want to check those out, the heads are on top in Gerwalk and fighter, like the rest of the VFs post-25. You could match the 31E with your VE-1, and any of them would look good displayed with a *F-25.

I snooped around and I am feeling the Kairos, that could be a go.

I guess I like the more cyclops-y, less humanoid faces. Wondering what this says about me.

That contains illegal levels of disco.  Maybe too much.

Which valkyrie has the funkiest head in battroid mode?

The answer is obvious.... Basara's VF-19 from Macross 7. 

It has a frickin mouth with lips!  Why?! I don't recall any other valkyrie head having such a thing. It's weird... just so weird.

Good luck, market price is around $600 for those.

Yeah, I just had a look around and I'm thinking it might not be worth an organ (or my organs might not be worth $600, either way ...)

If we're talking unsettling levels of anthropomorphism, I'd still love a 1/60 VF11-MAXL someday.

Love this one.  Looks absolutely amazing in gerwalk - ready for a night on the town.
