Due to the glowing reviews of the VF-11b lately, I have been picking this piece up and looking at it over and over, but I just don't have any love for it. It may be very well executed, but it is just boring to me. |

#2302 | | Omnibot Join Date: Jul 2008 Posts: 290 News Credits: 1 | Great thread here! I have the 1/60th scale Yamato VF-1S,A and J in Rick Hunter colors. Just got the Destroid Defender and tomohawk in green..great detail and gears are colored in gunmetal paint!
I just ordered two Garlands the Proto Garland and Factory Color...Looking forward to them. I still love transformers and the cartoon but these Yamato toys, albeit expensive, are just outstanding!!!!
Does anyone know if there is an Armored parts for the 1/60 scale yamato valkyries? I saw that Angolz had an item up but listed as sold out...I wasn't sure if that was for the first version of their 1/60 scaled planes. If anyone knows if there are armored parts out or due to come out I would love to know.
Thanks!!! |

Thanks!!! | Yes, they make standalone armor parts for the Yamato 1/60 v2.0 In fact you can get the parts in TV colors or realistic colors. I was just looking at them last night in Tokyo. I belive they are 3580yen. |

Thanks!!! | Depends...if you mean the FAST pack armor (legs, arms, thrusters), then yes, it's available seperately in Super and Strike versions.
If you mean the GBP armor (the full suit), then no, Yamato hasn't produced or announced one yet. Although I'm sure they will soon. |

Yamato has produced some FANTASTIC toys of the last couple of years. Granted I just started getting into this line so luckily I missed all the previous flawed figures... |
