Who picked one of these bad boys up? Do you forgive bandai for not making the 1/35 version they teased?
Also Macross thread I guess.

Got mine a few days ago. It's the absolute tits, one of the best figures I've ever bought. On the one hand I'm slightly mad some of the features from that 1/35 version like LED lighting, rivet detailing and weathering didn't carry over. On the other, this thing was only ¥19,000+shipping. That's INSANE for something this good.

The main appeal of the 1/35 would be built-in intake covers and chest side covers I reckon. So annoying having to keep at least the intake covers out of the box.

Anymoon/Jenius made the point in his review that it doesn't do much beyond the leg detachment gimmick that's any better/different to the old Yamato/Arcadia 1/60 version 2. I suppose if there's anything to be disappointed with it's that it's just a more refined version of that toy rather than the be-all end-all definitive VF-1 - which would obviously have integrated side fillers, intake covers, heat shield deployable in fighter mode and maybe a couple of other small tweaks.

As it stands the DX Chogokin is still fantastic and probably the best VF-1 money can currently buy.

Would a fighter mode shield even be possible? I'd agree this is the best vf-1 available as long as you don't care about it being out of scale with all the 1/60's in a hypothetical collection.

Can't wait for the VF-1S Roy Fokker version. I'll gladly pay more for that sexy black/yellow striping and included super pack.

>>7335849

Wait, what 1/35?

I have so many Arcadia VF-1s that I skipped this. I may go for a VF-1S in Roy or Hikaru colors, though.

Remember when the DX Chogokin VF-1 had it's pre-orders sold out immediately after launch, and now they are at least $350 in the aftermarket?

This thing has a good chance of getting KO OS'ed by Wei Jiang so they can use it for a G1 Jetfire.

I don't see why this has any better of a chance of getting KO'd than any number of Valkyrie figures before this. 1/48 is also pretty close, sizewise, to how big G1 Jetfire was to the other G1 toys, relatively.

I'll never understand why they produce so few of them. Their supposedly re-releasing this with out the stand so I'm hoping to snag that one.

Why would it? No valk before has been ko's and jetfire'd, why would they start now.

Most of them came without super packs and the yamato 1/48 had proportion issues. I for one welcome our new bandai 1/48 overlords.

What? The Yamato 1/60's got KO'd years ago and now the DX VF-31's have been too.
