Aurel Tristen Posted July 25, 2004 Posted July 25, 2004 Actually I don't think the Ghost Drone is actually attached. Its doing a TopGun.The AI is giving Shin the bird he he he The QF-2001 Ghost is mounted on the VF-Zero. The picture clearly shows this. Quote
Aurel Tristen Posted July 25, 2004 Posted July 25, 2004 I wonder if Shin will have a grey-colored VF-0S with red trim and dark blue-ish feet/manipulators etc..... Quote
Keith Posted July 25, 2004 Posted July 25, 2004 I was kinda hoping Shin would have an orange VF-1D....oh well. Quote
Jester Posted July 26, 2004 Posted July 26, 2004 Nanashi.....I was joking when I said it wasn't attached and it was giving Shin the bird. Quote

Maybe they got the idea for the VF-1's fast pack system from rigging this "booster" up on the Zero. Quote
Druna Skass Posted July 26, 2004 Posted July 26, 2004 So is the drone just going to ride on the Zero as a booster unit and more weapons, or will it detatch and act as an AI wingman? Quote
Aegis! Posted July 27, 2004 Posted July 27, 2004 So is the drone just going to ride on the Zero as a booster unit and more weapons, or will it detatch and act as an AI wingman? Any of the two is a good option IMO Quote
Keith Posted July 27, 2004 Posted July 27, 2004 Real question is, can the VF-0 transform with it attatched... Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted July 27, 2004 Posted July 27, 2004 Real question is, can the VF-0 transform with it attatched... I don't think it can. If the drone attached only to the backplate of the VF 0 one could think that the transformation may be possible. But still the backpack could not fold against the backplate in battroid mode. A half gerwalk mode (without folding the back pack) should be OK. Quote
Keith Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Something interesting I just saw tonight. Watched the 4th volume of Harlock Outside Legend. It had a trailor for submarine 707R, which had geneon promoting the production staff with their credits including Macross Zero. Now I suppose Geneon isn't naive enough to think people wouldn't import & watch what's been released before (HK or otherwise), but I found it interesting that they'd choose Zero to promote 707R's staff. It's grasping at straw's, but perhaps they're showing interest in licensing Zero? Quote
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 i figured bandai usa would've tried to pull that off before anyone else would Quote
MjrMisaHayase Posted July 29, 2004 Posted July 29, 2004 Once ANIMEniacs.com have all 5 volumes available in a bundle pack, then I'll purchase them. Sigh. From what I've heard, the last installment won't be out until October, so it's a long wait for me. Quote

From what I've heard, the last installment won't be out until October, so it's a long wait for me. They don't even have the 4th volume (oddly enough, only Kevin does....). The general turn around time seems to be a 1-2 months before U.S. shops get ahold of the HK disc's. So october should turn into late november/mid december for the HK vol 5. Quote

Keith Posted August 3, 2004 Posted August 3, 2004 Might want to just go through Kevin. He has the vol 1 & 2 combo disc, as well as volumes 3 & 4. No one else in town seem's to have vol 4, which is just wierd. Quote
Gabriel Posted August 13, 2004 Posted August 13, 2004 (edited) Similar to what some others have suggested, my theory is that Earth was an experiment designed to create a peaceful and naturalistic society...perhaps as a form of insurance against the dangers that the Proto-Culture's own technology posed to itself. This is why they came here, did their thing, and then left us alone. Mayan island is a control to judge the progress of the experiment. If it ever becomes corrupted with violence and technology (as it has) the Bird Human will awaken to purify the world, either by exterminating humanity itself or signalling for outside help. Then it would start the process all over again. The Professor probably guesses some of this, which explains the urgency of the Anti-UN attempts to capture it. Edited August 13, 2004 by Gabriel Quote

VF-101Guy Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 Shin and Edgar WERE using a VF-0D. Yes, I know. The VF-0D appeared in episode 2, in both Shin's blue/white version and the standard gray/white version. Shin's was destroyed in episode 3. I'm referring to a 1/72 VF-0D from Hasegawa. OK, never mind then As for the D model hasegawa, it's just a matter of time before that baby comes out. Umm guys isnt the VF-0 twin seater a B not a D and if your looking for the kits i bought 4 of them today from hobby link japan Quote
Yohsho Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 Yeah that's the B the D has different wing and tail setup. Just look at the one Shin flies in Mac0 and you can see the difference. Quote
VF-101Guy Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 ahhh.. ok i see what your talking about now.. Quote
Keith Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 Only downside to that kit is the loss of features with the bright white paint. Quote
Graham Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 Here's a page from the new October issue of Hobby Japan showing scenes and mecha from ep # 5. You can clearly see Roy gets a new VF-0S with a FAST Back booster/drone(?) attached. The drone seems to be armed with 2 rocket or micro-missile pods and the VF-0S also has 2 of the same rocket or micro-missile pods under the wings along with what are probably 2 drop tanks. It looks like Ivanov & Nora's SV-51s also have some sort of drone or booster or large missile mounted over the wing. Graham Quote
Graham Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 Here's a slightly larger scan of the mecha. Graham Quote
VF-0S FAN Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 Here's a slightly larger scan of the mecha.Graham I really can't wait for a BIG Yamato toy for this thanks for the scan G Quote
LePoseur Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 Looks like they're calling it a "Ghost Booster" and yes, it appears to have micro missile pods Quote
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 seeing these pictures just make me want to see episode 5 i still think it's very ingenius how they used the ghost fighter as a fastpack unit...i guess UN Spacy guys were trying to finally find a good way to keep up with the speeds of the SV-51...it makes more sense since i doubt the VF-0 is going out into space anytime soon Graham...can you give us some larger scans of the screen caps on the side of the page? Thanks in advance Quote
Graham Posted August 25, 2004 Posted August 25, 2004 Actually, after studying the pictures some more, it appears that the micro-missile pods are actually attached to the VF-0's dorsal fuel tanks and not connected to the drone. It also appears that the drone has several hexagonal black shapes on it's nose, which are I presume micro-missile ports. Graham Quote
