Point

From the "Macross" series, which has been developed from 1982 to the present, "Tomica Premium Unlimited" will release the aircraft of the three main characters of the first TV anime "The Super Dimension Fortress Macross": Teruki Ichijo, Maximilian Genus, and Roy Fokker.

This product was developed under the supervision of Shoji Kawamori, the mechanical designer and creator of "Valkyrie". The "Valkyrie VF-1 Fighter Form" was designed in the scale of the "Tomica" series, and the design of the fuselage and the Joint Forces markings were expressed in as much detail as possible.
The VF-1J Valkyrie VF-1 Fighter is a deformed, palm-sized model, but the weight of the die cast can be felt, and comes with an original pedestal based on the image of the hangar that appears in the anime's OP video, making it a finish that will satisfy fans of the work.
