danth Posted Wednesday at 04:28 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 04:28 PM Personally I don't see the appeal. Ignoring all the small aesthetic changes, I'm not a fan of the legs being so separated (both vertically and horizontally) from the main fuselage in fighter mode. And there was seemingly no effort to recess the head in fighter mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeszekely Posted Thursday at 12:46 AM Share Posted Thursday at 12:46 AM Maybe that price tag is so high because it covers a stint in rehab when you finally convince it to stop using steroids... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twich Posted Thursday at 05:30 AM Share Posted Thursday at 05:30 AM I think that this is very interesting. The design of the legs and how panels slide back to cover the feet/thrust vectoring is an interesting new thing. I hope that we get some in depth pictures detailing all about this.

Hikuro Posted Saturday at 04:50 PM Share Posted Saturday at 04:50 PM I mean the robot mode, it's neat, the design isn't terrible at all it's just the esthetics and lines are interesting and over done which brings out a ........neat appearance. But after that, you put it into the other two forms...damn is it awful to look at, just absolutely awful. Like the entire budget went to making the robot mode cool and the rest just after birth defects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted Saturday at 07:10 PM Share Posted Saturday at 07:10 PM They should have made it so the inside of the legs opened up to form a shell over the bottom of fighter mode then stored beefy arms inside the leg cavities and under the backpack. Hell, put the vertical stabilizers on the arms and get rid of the backpack. It doesn't look like the original design so why not go nuts? Super Parts could still open in like the old joke machines. No matter what they did though, having the intakes stick way out from fighter looks bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Valkyrie Posted Saturday at 07:55 PM Share Posted Saturday at 07:55 PM In one way I consider it Macross The First merchandise. Need more pics of the 1A CF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Posted Saturday at 10:15 PM Share Posted Saturday at 10:15 PM I think they should consider retiring this prototype and create another for the shows, it has has seen some pretty severe battle action. I suspect it was on the clear stand behind it and broke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twich Posted Sunday at 02:51 AM Share Posted Sunday at 02:51 AM Looking at the pictures up on BBTS, it looks like a panel on the outside of the legs slide down in fighter mode, at least the picture showed it down in fighter mode. This is 8 inches tall, so that puts in roughly in scale with the 1/60, ThreeZero take on the VF-1. I rather enjoy the Three Zero interpretation of this and am hoping that I can acquire this too!

Black Valkyrie Posted Sunday at 07:28 AM Share Posted Sunday at 07:28 AM Overall I like the bulky design, I have no issue with it. I`m hoping for a TV Max after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radioguy Posted 19 hours ago Share Posted 19 hours ago Again, if this were die-cast, it would be fun. I still think it may be depending on the build quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spark-O-Matic Posted 42 minutes ago Share Posted 42 minutes ago Looking Forward to buying the Armored Version! Ill wait to buy another example once it goes on Clearance sale and it will! all because too many macross collectors are purest not getting the stylized point of it while transformer collectors are just going to pass unless they make a god of flame version. This will be one Robotech/Macross offering that will be a one run and done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twich Posted 3 minutes ago Share Posted 3 minutes ago I, for one want to support anyone to make a quality representation of a transformable Valkyrie. I enjoy my Three Zero, Bandai, Yamato and Arcadia Valkyries and want to continue to buy new Valkyries. We, as fans of the series and the collectible toys should encourage this. If the toy is crap, don’t buy it, but I hope it is quality. We shall see. Twich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
