007-vf1

Shoot what a rip off, I'll sell you the one I have for only 2k lol

I didn't know they cost that much now a days!! ... I also got my little paws on one...I think I became an instant "millionare"

Now I wonder how expensive the model becomes after it's build up...??

I thought this was funny..but why destroy such nice decals and model to create this aberration??

how tall is this kit? is it comparable to a MG gundam in size?

thanks

chris

I don't know about the kit but the box is as big as the 1/48 size box.. the armor and the VF-0S comes inthe same package so 2 kits in one. The front cover in gorgeous in meatlic gray..I ordered mine from Hobby search 1999 a week ago and it's already here through EMS; fastest delivery ever. I got that topped by HLJ just a couple of times.

I'm gonna get hit for saying this, but it reminds me of the "Thunder Hammer." Yes, I'm sorry I brought that up. - MT

Oh you shouldn't get hit . Actually I was surprise to the similarities..I think the guy tried to incorporate a mix of the classic and the Thunder's GBP style.

I would buy it with the idea of moding it close to the classic GBP since the arms shouldes and forelegs are the real pain when it comes to moding the old imai kits..This kit has more of the hard work cut up for you; and like CobyOne said a bit of moding and gap filling could erase some unwanted details...

This model goes along well with many of the SW micro machines ones. I was planning on building one from scratch but since someone has created one that probably will look 10 times better I rather buy it...

Thanks for the tip HWR

I found something bigger than the monster

I want to know how big it is; where did yuo get it and how much did it cost..??

All your Snakes are belong to us.....!!!!

why God oh why????

Oh redsun you beat me to it...

the scale is a bit off but besides that is a great dioram

You have got to be joking me....!!!

must have been a recast..??

Well guys..is time to ask some of the model gurus here to start making a new resin project..??

Here it goes another shot. May be not as accurate but I did my best a while ago while modding an exo squad one a couple of years back...

The "visors" or radar screens are angled in a weird way...

Me too count me in as well..

I am just wondering if it will include the 2-3 different "heads" versions??

I would like to have one but on 1/700 scale...

3 and 3/4 freaking bottles...!!! ??

anyways, Im a huge star wars fan, and have just moved on to macross.

so far Ive seen  macross 7, macross plus, and macross zero. havent seen the original though. Im addicted to sci fi.

Aren't we all around here..?

You have to see DYRL

geeks until the end man...

Could you post bigger or more detailed pics of the defender??

thnaks bud

SSHWWEEEEETTT !!!!

Too bad I´m too broke to have a holiday AND this kit...    but at least I want to see lots of pics, a build-up thread and several dioramas! even if it means I´m gonna cry if I see this beauty!

Oh man...you will cry....you will......

By desteny's fate I had the opportunity to lay my little paws on one o these trucks. I must say I am quite impressed by the sculpt.

The details on the under side vents and fuel/chemical valves are simply exquisite... I didn't know you could get this much detail on one mold, and is a big chunk or resin..

Thanks Capt..

That would be the Dragon II.

Tanmen made a kit of it in 1/72, and a lucky few people here own one. 

I've been wanting to get my hands on one for quite a while now...  Anyone out there want to sell theirs?

RECAST!!!

Heres a little something for the fans. VF-17S battroid. in 1/72 scale   Finishing details will go on today and hopefully the basecoat too.

You know I am half way building that sucker since last year..any hints on what the trouble areas are at or any suggestions on how to cut steps or skip mistakes..?

What color are you using?

I think the 1/144 N-ger was probably one of the best investments I found in the last 5 years. They used to cost about $100 on ebay at some point. I bought 1 at $65 If i recall correctly. But when Adrian found several for $15 each.. is was a crime not to at least buy one....

I also bought destroids from Hobby fan but have not looked at the recast quality. I have purchased other recasts from people over seas though ebay at about the same price and they came out good.

these ones are from one of those ebay recasters i built a few years ago...

That is so freaking hilarious....!!

Might even be 142 Mexican Whooping Llamas.

Dude; llamas aren't mexican..they are South American..but i get your point....

cheers

I received it today..awesome kit...

I had the impression it would be a bit bigger..but the details on the resin..Oh boy is virtually perfect...no bubbles..

Thanks a bunch Thorsten
