As per title, new 1/60 VF-1 with improved parts, perfect transformation, no need to detach legs anymore. also with this 2.0 version, it's highly possible that the elintseeker, Super ostrich and VF-1D trainer will materialise
1. DYRL SUPER VF-1A HIKARU, JULY 2. DRYL SUPER VF-1S ROY, AUG CREDITS - TOM.COM, TOYSDAILY

will have see how the valk really is then will decide to collect or not
heard the articulation is better than the 1/48 but if there is 1D, VE and VT haha that will make a lot of fans poorer

The best improvement in 1/60 Roy is the head sculpt. No more ugly center partition as in the 1/48's. And the ability to attach a cockpit to it's arm is definitely a plus plus for fans. We can re-enact the classic scene in the TV series.

Sorry guys, I'm bit confuse between tis 1/60 and 1/48.
I know the scale are different but it seems some 1/60 are the same size as 1/48 too rite? I wanted to get them for so long now but too hesitate to buy due to the scaling and "perfect transformation". Any kind soul can help me to explain them? -------------------- |

The 1/60s that looks same size as 1/48 are the vf-0 valks. vf-1 (original) are smaller compared to vf-0 valks similar to how f-16s are smaller than f-14 tomcats. If your concerned about scale, 1/60 is the way to go since Yamato seems to be doing everything in that scale. But make sure you go for the latest 1/60s (Perfect Transformation ans Looks better proportioned compared to the 1/48s) --------------------  |

this is nice. I actually prefer 1/60. its more manageable size.
1/48 is too tua liap....no space to display but I tell you hor......yamato valkyrie they will sure release every version with different color etc etc, make your wallet burn big whole.... imho, just buy one enough, dont hoard or collect. -------------------- Search "Chogokin" at Yahoo Japan Auctions

So far i only have 1/48 VF-1S Roy Focker with me. But seem like this 1/60 version with fast pack is quite tempting as well.

It seems there is no ending to Yamato's Macross toyline. The previous 1/60 to me have been quite a disappointment (especially the loose legs). 1/48 is detail, big enough and nice to look at but it's not durable enough as a toy and the plastic material still needed improvement.
I will reserve my comments for the 1/60 perfect transformation. The toy looks pretty nice in the pics. I hope the price is also reasonable.
