While the model is nice, it looks fragile as a pile of egg shells. I wonder if any model making company has considered making *STRONGER* Vf-25s for kids to play with. The plastic and the joints common to most models make pretty to look at- but not to touch. For my family, a pretty model wouldn't last an hour...
Hey Wizatar how the hell have you been bro, hopefully good.. Hey is the up an coming tornado michael custom have the same colors for the valk itself or have they changed some colors ? hopefully they have made some improvements but i am doubting that they have.. Also are you thinking that we will get some more re releases or new valks with the new frontier movies coming out soon ?
Thanks in advance man and hope you have the happiest new year my friend
@WarhawkLegend69 Happy new year, all is good. So far all I've seen are the promo. images and it looks like the same VF-25g but with the Tornado pack instead of the FAST pack. But plan to pick it up.
Not sure about more releases, think a bit of the Frontier buzz is dieing down. There's a new DX YF-29 in the works from Bandai, that could be the "big" release for the movie. Other then that haven't heard of any other releases.
yamato product is too expensive for me.. just ready made model.. when bandai produce for macross.... im very excited... bandai are the best for mecha scale model..
japan is awsome.. their anime mecha can apply to toys.. likes actual...
Hi, I would be pleased if you could post a video about how to remove the fast pack of the model without scratching the paint, because from what i can see the chest armor is the most firmly attached accessory. Also please tell us how to remove the stand clip for battroid pose because I tried once and was not so easy
I agree with all the VF 25 is among the more handsome valks by Macross...TADASHII !!!!(however)...the cost to purchase this chogokin (S$280) makes me very intolerant of the issues I hear (most of it is the limitations in articulation with the super pack) and see here ... BTW Is it me or are the VF25's wings all warping upwards?
If you don't like this model, I can only advise you to wait until Yamato or another company is able to manufacture these, as they ight do better than Bandai.
I do love the Sniper characters and I really want this figure, though the price is a huge deterrent. For my VF-25F, I have a huge problem with the paint apps scratching. Is this a huge problem? Or am I just handling mine wrongly?
No, the paint does scratch off a little too easily for my liking. The chest paint on my VF-25F has a small scratch from when I rushed a transformation but other then that I'm OK.
Althought i'm not one for macross i can't help but appraciate the design that goes into these things. It helps that the skywarpy colour scheme looks shweEeEeEeEet So many intricate parts...definately not toys...The stand in jet mode looks a bit...wobbly though. I would have thought casting it in clear plastic would have been preferable...no? its been so long since i did a flier model but stands were usually clear.
Cheers, yeah. It's the same with Yamato, the bases supplied are functional but that's it. If you want one to look cool you have to spend extra cash, which is a bit of a pain.
I'm sure they will, as the 1/72 scale version of the FAST pack was released a little while ago and those normally get released before the DX 1/60 line.
hey could I get a VF25G on amazon for a good price

If you don't like them then don't buy it. There's plenty of other nice models out there to be had.
Yes, on the 1/60s they do. But if the original design is that way I couldn't tell you.

Is the Macross Action Base compatible with the VF-25 DX?
toykolektor 2 years ago
The 1/72 scale Action Base isn't designed for the 1/60 scales. There's a massive difference in the overall weight of the two figure types.

Would it have KILLED Bandai to spray some yellow on it? Jeez.
