Time to Procure a Valkyrie

[blog.yahoo.com]

VF-4G proto, VF-19F, and Super VF-17D bundle plus other stuff

note there's a Cat's Eye and Spartan on that MEF poster

I'm a little surprised they are making the VF-X style VF-4G

I know they had some licensing issues because that version is actually complete but jeez

the rage at MW is delicious

Those little Metal Box Battroids look interesting.

Damn, that -4 is one pretty bird.

So who's MEF anyway? And why do they tease me so with their Spartan silhouette???

And the Metal Box stuff has always looked nice to me, but aren't they somewhat-delicate unpainted/unassembled resin kits?

That VF-4 fighter mode is beautiful.

Those jerks only want freaking jolly roger skull squadron emblems on every damn valk.
Me, I want THIS one

Yeah, I think the metal box stuff are just kits. Too bad, those MB valks would be fun as finished toys with diecast.



Meanwhile, I'm still pining for the chunky monkey reissue VF-1D and Max TV 1A that shall never be. Seriously. It's a soul-crushing longing that keeps me awake at night.

So, I noticed that there are pre-orders up for a Yamato 1/60 VE-1 Elint Seeker.

Presumably this is a reissue of the revised one from a few years ago. Right?

Were there any engineering or design flaws with the first revised VE-1?

Aside from the nape and armpit covers, and extended seats, do these reissues have anything new or improved going for them?
