Looking forward to the full review! Same here, the transformation guides are always good, but the full reviews are where a glass of scotch or a good beer is worthy. Quote

505thAirborne Posted November 25 Posted November 25 (edited) Behold... The Review!! And yes, I have an ice cold Pacifico in hand while watching. Edited November 25 by 505thAirborne Quote
jenius Posted November 25 Posted November 25 Lol, thanks for the compliments. Hopefully the review lives up to expectations! I think my next ThreeZero video will be a direct comparison of the Yamato VF-1J weathering Hikaru vs. the ThreeZero Weathered VF-1J Rick. I'll probably take a break and do some other reviews before coming back to it though. Quote

Although then there’s definitely gonna end up more drunken Macross fans either way Quote
jenius Posted November 25 Posted November 25 So I didn't notice the toy had a double knee joint because it was so stiff... after some comments I tried harder and got it to move so I'm going to do a quick edit and upload again. Quote

jenius Posted November 25 Posted November 25 Probably needs some time to process before it's available in higher definition but here's the corrected video with the double-jointed knee discussed: Thanks for anyone who left a comment pointing out the issue! Quote

Thanks again for a review! I got mine a couple of weeks ago, but it has never left the package... But you didn't turn the missiles around like in the instructions. 😉 Quote

I didn't know about that the other knee joint either, so that is good to know. Great review as always @jenius, I enjoyed both the written and video format. Quote

I'm curious, did anyone get theirs with evenly flushed wings? The one I got is minor but not perfect. Did the weathered version have the same problem? Edited November 25 by rsvictor1976 Quote
jenius Posted November 25 Posted November 25 I think mine are flush on both versions... If there not, they're so close I didn't notice. Quote

jvmacross Posted December 6 Posted December 6 ThreeZero's VF-1 has grown on me....will pick them up as they are released but seems they are not selling out so no rush for me... Quote
jvmacross Posted December 6 Posted December 6 (edited) The only "DX" toys of the M&M VF-1Js released by Japanese companies without bundled Fast Packs were from Takatoku and the re-releases from Bandai.... A release of these without bundling them with their color-matched Fast Packs would be a very Robotech thing to do.... Edited December 6 by jvmacross Quote

jenius Posted December 6 Posted December 6 I wonder if the arm armors on super Parts will need to be low profile given how much the arms stick out underneath. Quote
MKT Posted December 8 Posted December 8 Aside the panel lining, the paint on Rick's 1J give off a nice impression of painted metal like real jets. The M&M 1J continues this impression under that display lighting and looks lovely. Quote
rsvictor1976 Posted Friday at 07:16 AM Posted Friday at 07:16 AM (edited) Not mine, but someone posted this on Facebook. I guess it's out now in Hong Kong. I like the head sculp on this toy. https://www.facebook.com/groups/MacrossFanCentral/permalink/2314774362216644/ Edited Friday at 07:20 AM by rsvictor1976 Quote
mcfly50 Posted Friday at 10:27 PM Posted Friday at 10:27 PM Yeah. Got my shipping notice from ThreeZero. Quote
mark-1s Posted Friday at 11:20 PM Posted Friday at 11:20 PM Where did that articulated hand come from? Quote

MKT Posted Saturday at 06:47 AM Posted Saturday at 06:47 AM I never had issues with the 1J head sculpt, but here the 1S has a rather long face. Looks weird but then again it does look pretty anime accurate lol. Quote
