ArchieNov Posted January 14 Posted January 14 It's unfortunate that they didn't rework the crotch so that it won't need the additional bracer to lock it forward in battroid. Quote
PointBlankSniper Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Yay, it seems that the images really were a lie and the clear parts are still green. 😁 Unless they just matte coated a renewal for this show... They didn't spin this unit around to show the new screws so I'm not sure if this confirms anything... And I think the dude broke the canard on his old v1 unit. He looks like he was trying very hard to hide it lol. Quote
Sildani Posted January 14 Posted January 14 I like the matte finish. Other than that I’m not totally sold on this since I didn’t much care for Brera as a character and I don’t think the extra screws are really going to change much. I thought it was a little odd they compared the Revival to the original 27, not the Renewal. I guess they wanted to show all the differences they could. I wonder if the Renewal 27 sold so poorly… Still happy with my Grace 27, but I did put in a PO for this with Amazon for the hell of it. I’ll compare it to my figure of Melda Dietz and see if their colors compare well. If not, Amazon’s return policy makes it simple. Quote
nismoflip Posted January 14 Posted January 14 I have to say that matte look is pretty appealing to me. I was set on not buying a revival since I already have the original and renewal glossy versions. But after watching that vid I’m not so sure I won’t pick one of these up. I may have missed the discussion but is a Grace revival in the works? Quote
David Hingtgen Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Yeah---comparing it to the OG seems kinda pointless. The darker grey feet etc are not new compared to the previous release. Quote

borgified Posted January 15 Author Posted January 15 Pointless for me also to get the Revival 27y if there is ZERO structural changes for now, still hanging on to the Renewal version. Quote
Mommar Posted Sunday at 08:14 AM Posted Sunday at 08:14 AM Matte Fighter mode might be nice looking but as a transforming toy the fact it still has retained the flawed previous mechanics means it's overpriced. Quote
Duymon Posted Sunday at 02:53 PM Posted Sunday at 02:53 PM (edited) It's still the same VF-27 Ver 1.25 that came out in 2017 and even then that renewal was just a tweaked version of the original 2010 vf-27. Just now it has a matte coat. At least release the damn toy in different colors like the Macross 30 version and maybe I'd bite Edited Sunday at 02:53 PM by Duymon Quote
David Hingtgen Posted yesterday at 03:33 AM Posted yesterday at 03:33 AM Proper on-screen-accurate dull olive green would be nice for a change... Quote
