Skull Hunter Posted February 12, 2004 Posted February 12, 2004 Hey yall. Don't know if this has been asked before, but just want to know if I buy the armor separately, are the big hands included? I already have the 1/60 VF-1J super, and just want to buy the GBP armor. I just feel that if I get the GBP that it definitely needs the bigger hands. Anyone know if there are any more differences in what you get by buying the 1J with armor as opposed to armor by itself? Quote
buddhafabio Posted February 12, 2004 Posted February 12, 2004 from looking at the pictures, i think you may need to modify your yamato if it did not come with fastpacks. because there is no way for the boosters to connect to the back pack on a valk that didnt come with fastpacks. look at the picture the left one is my vf-1s strike set the right is my vf-1a cannon fodder. the vf-1s has the holes and the connon fodder does not. my other vf-1s does not either Quote
Skull Hunter Posted February 16, 2004 Author Posted February 16, 2004 Thanks for the reply buddhafabio. Can anyone tell me if the 1/60 GBP will come with the big hands and if there will be any other differences. Graham? Anyone? Quote
Anubis Posted February 16, 2004 Posted February 16, 2004 (edited) It's been said before that the GBP armor will work with all the 1/60's except the D,VE, and VT models, due to the different chest design. GBP doesn't really need the holes on the backpack due to it's all-encompassing nature. It's also supposed to come with new hands. Edited February 16, 2004 by Anubis Quote
Skull Hunter Posted February 17, 2004 Author Posted February 17, 2004 Thanks for the replies Anubis. That's all I needed to know. Quote
buddhafabio Posted February 17, 2004 Posted February 17, 2004 i hope it does fit all valks but i am prepared if it dont. i kinda think it wont because the boosters attach to the pack in the series Quote
Graham Posted February 17, 2004 Posted February 17, 2004 Yep, I've been told that the GBP-1S Armor will fit all 1/60 Valks, except for the two-seaters VF-1D, VT-1 & VE-1. Not sure if the armor set by itself comes with the big hands, but i presume so. Graham Quote
Uxi Posted February 17, 2004 Posted February 17, 2004 Where else would the hands come from? If they're not included WITH the GBP, then they're gonna be vaporware like the 1/60 upgrades. Quote
GRAND CANNON Posted February 17, 2004 Posted February 17, 2004 I dream of not only the hands coming with the set, but with more 'poses' rather than just fists. Then we can beg >EXO< to do some recasts to outfit the entire 1/60 family!! There will then be much rejoicing!! Quote
EXO Posted February 17, 2004 Posted February 17, 2004 (edited) FYI, I don't do the recasts. Rohby does. The only thing I get out of them is handless valks for a week or so. Rohby has molds from my 1/60 pilots. You can get them for either the super/strike or regular non supers. We've talked about putting it all on a website. I just haven't had time to put it together.

GRAND CANNON Posted February 17, 2004 Posted February 17, 2004 My apologies. Do not have any 1/48s, so I just quickly scanned the thread. With that said..... Maybe we can beg Rohby to do some recasts if possible! Quote

Graham Hey Graham, is there anyway that you can find out for sure from yamato that the hands will be included with the GBP armor only? Quote
