PLAMAX 1/72 VF-1 Valkyrie

So these are the ones I guess you can make using the included markings in the deculture pack. I’m pretty sure there would be some painting involved in some of these

This is pretty cool! I already have the individual boxings for most of these, but I'd get at lease 2 of this set to do the classic TV cannon fodder tan VF-1A, and one for the green and white (Alaska Base?) version.

I'll be interested to see if they do a similar multi-version release for the battroid kit.

I guess I didn't realize before, they still need to do a VF-1D fighter?

It wouldn’t be too difficult. Just need a movie hand set and pack in all the head and decal options

Yes, but the big question is, if they did a multi-version set for the battroid kit would they include the standing figures?

'Cus I with Kakizaki being a limited (Japan only) release I'm SOL for a complete set. And still really  miffed by that!😡

They did for some of the Dougram stuff, but I don’t know if they’re gonna be that nice to Macross fans

With all this options, they'll only need to do the VF-1J Max and Miria. In fact, we just need the white straps and the Miria's name for the cockpit.

In this site that sells overseas, it says "soon available" so may be you can buy one once released.

Stripes can be painted, but it would be nice to have the numbers for their respective units (the ones that go on the lower stabilizers) in addition to the pilot names for the cockpits. 202 for Max, 303 for Miria.

I have a feeling that they didn’t include those due to possible upcoming releases that might be just around the corner

I’d like to see them tackle a D in fighter mode.

If the stripes don’t bug you, I’m pretty sure that these have white numbers on the decal sheet. Although, I have no doubt that these will be eventual releases in the near future

Since they didn't release before the big combo kit, I'm sort of expecting Max and Miria VF-1Js to be released with super packs, since that wasn't possible until recently with the release of the other Super/Strike kits.

I'm inclined to wait to wait for dedicated releases in case the box art is good.

I was planning on waiting as well, but I did buy a couple of the sets for other purposes

I ordered 2 as well, for the generic tan VF-1A and the white and green Alaska unit.
