Macross VF100’s Rumor: YF-24, VF-1, VF-27, & VF-171!

Posted on February 25, 2009 at 1:37 am by Shin Densetsu under Macross Toy News

Tamashii might be expanding their Macross VF100’s line up much quicker than expected…..

Figure King shows a graphic list of other valkyries aside from the VF-25, it’s optional parts such as heavy armor, armored parts, fold booster, & super fold booster. All of these accessories might be planned for the VF100’s VF-25….

Other variable fighters listed include:YF-24, VF-171, VF-27, & VF-1

The VF-25 was derived from the YF-24. The VF-171 was the cannon fodder valkyrie from Macross Frontier. The VF-27 was flown by Alto’s rival, Brera Sterne. The VF-1 is the original valkyrie.

    Giving fans a variety of choices to choose from Bandai is releasing three different representations of the VF-25 Messiah from Macross Frontier:1/72 plamo(plastic model kits, 1/100 swap tranformation toys, & DX 1/60 perfect transformation toys). Pictured is the VF-25 from the VF100s line of 1/100 scale swap transformation toys.

    These toys are more accurate than their perfect transformation counterparts, at the cost of utilizing swappable parts for transformation. This is ideal for the fan who wants a more accurate and cheaper toy than the DX, something tougher than the plamo, but does not want to build the model kit. The VF-25 is not the only valkyrie planned for this series, the VF-1, YF-21, SV-51, VF-4, YF-19 are amongst the valkyries listed on the initial ads, and the Macross II logo was shown as well. Macross II has been a long neglected segment of the Macross franchise, and there are a good number of VF-2SS fans out there. With modern technology there is no doubt that if Bandai made a VF100s VF-2SS, it would be far superior to the 1/100 plamo they made of the VF-2SS more than 10 years ago.

    This is awesome news.....I'm thinking about jumping into the 1/100th scale line, and this would suit me just fine!

    Question for you though Shin...where would I go to buy these?....can you recommend a place or two?

    Online is the best way to go for these, there is speculation that part of the Tamashii deal with Toynami, may actually enable these to be sold here stateside next year but so far, much of the Tamashii/Toynami news has been very, very quiet. BBTS is sure to carry them, as well as online hobby stores in japan that ship worldwide.

    BBTS has them, but Focker is sold out.

    Like you said before, Shin, he is bound to show up again sooner or later.

    It took me forever to amass my somewhat small Macross Roy collection. especially ones that have fast packs.

    Worth the wait, though.

    Hey OS...is that a Toynami 1/100th scaled Fokker in your collection pic?

    If so, how you like him?....pretty cool?...any complaints or issues?

    No, I don't have one yet. That figure is a Toynami Super Poseable PVC figure (Non-Transformable) I found him in person at a local comic shop for $15 or $20, I couldn't pass it up. (Not to mention he has the FAST packs )

    I still need the 1/100 and the 1/60, but I am not in a super rush. Probably get the 1/100 when I can, but the 1/60 is too much $ for me this time of year.

    I see....thats why I'm gonna try out the 1/100th scale first....like I said, a lil more affordable for me right now....$20 average ain't bad for a possibly very cool toy. I'd love to get a 1/60...but I'm afraid to spend that type of loot and then get it and be like "meh" about it...

    I can afford to be "meh" about the $20 though

    I already have one on preorder at HLJ. Might have to add another one.

    Can't wait to display this next to my Gundams and jet fighter planes.

    Hmmm that is a good idea for displaying. The VF-25 is significantly bigger than the VF-1, so it won't look so short next to an in scale Gundam.

    I think I'm going to end up swallowing my non-partsforming pride and end up getting a couple of these. I'm on such a Frontier kick lately that I probably wont be able to resist. I'm even considering buying the gashapons, and I rarely ever buy non-articulated figures....

    Looks great. I wish there wasn't as many swappable parts, and that a stand, where you could place all those parts was included. Looks like if I buy these, I will use small ziplock bags to keep track of everything.

    The proportions on the VF-19 don't seem too flattering in that poster, but hopefully that's just a case of bad angle. It needs a slightly squatter torso and beefier legs. The partsforming 1/100 Model Kits from way back when looked absolutely phenomenal with regard to the battroid mode proportions.

    I hope the VF100s resembles the old plamo in final production. I need a durable replacement for my old plamo, which I stupidly treated like a toy back in 7th grade and even brought it to school in my backpack. Freaking stupid.

    Looking forward to this release and more. I am not a big fan of parts-formers, but hell the Fire Valkyrie is a good design, and I need a replacement for my plamo which is now in pieces. Unlike the plamo, this will stand the test of time.
