Swoosh Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 I saw a "master piece" VF-1R for sale, but what is a 1R, what sort of figter is it? A trainner?
Vermillion One Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 I believe that it is an animation anomaly. Its a single seater, so I would have to guess its just a fighter with an odd head. Check the other animation section and the MPC thread for more info.
the white drew carey Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 (edited) The YF-1R is based on what is believed to be an animation mistake. It is a VF1A with a laser on both sides of the head as well, ala' VF-1J or -1D. RT chose to utilize that mistake as an actual vehicle in their game, Battlecry, although they changed many features of the head, including adding a chin, slats on the side, and making the eyepiece hexagonal. Also, there is an 'R' series in Macross non-canon (from the PC-Engine game Macross 2036). These are "refined" VF-1's, known as VF-1AR, VF-1JR and VF-1SR. Edited March 9, 2004 by the white drew carey
