007-vf1

I agree about the drop tank, is just odd. I think the model maker just wanted to put something out of the ordinary there and didn't think about that detail.

The missile pylons seem to have been place there to eventually carry the gun pods on each side but the guy never got time to do it and most likely would have also looked odd....(just a wild guess)

The only idea I can come up with about the signatures in the nose, is to go to a hobby store and buy dry transfers or decals for HO train sets or WWII plane optional decals. I have seen some of those custom made with hand written schemes in black and white and would be a perfect match for that VF...

I also thing $360 is too much. around $250 a bit higher is just fine some times you cna find them lower than $200.

Now about the question if it is worth buying; my answer is yes, It should be a must...if you like models that is

I am : "the dancing fool..."

costume color: "Orange"

battle cry is: "Oh you B*tch"

side kick: " Melvin; 93 year old dude..."

is hilarious...

that vf-19 elint rocks..nice custom..

This is mine i believe the very first one in the US.

It was built over a years ago..

Those Detolf cabinets are probably one of the best ones I have ever purchased..and they were "dirt cheap" at $60 each.. I recomend them to anyone who lacks room space..

Too bad the Ikea close to me already run out of them..I need a couple more...

Oh yeah, nice collection..

Everybody's a critic...

this is a macross Opus Magnus dignified to go on the records...now got to have some courage to build the "truck"...

Bump...!

for updates...

it looks like you won't make the armor detachable?

in that case it is a lot easy to deal with. One thing you'll realize once is done is that the legs armor looks quite stubby and big. I had to do several cuts to make it look proportional to the rest of the battroid...

you are refering to this pic?

it was a customized model from hasegawa done by a master japanese? entusiast. I am not sure but it was depicted on one of the model magazines on the magazene sections

congratualtions on you next macross "addiction"...he,he

well if it doesn't make sense I just typed my first name and I had 2 names reply..

直樹 Naoki (straight tree) whatever that means..it reminds me of "well hung man.."

I used to love this show back in the days...this one and Get Smart are among the best comedy police shows ever...

AWESOME...!!!!

Basically you just have to jump through alot of hoops. Also if memory serves BW only allows 10 sub-licenses for Macross per event.

And yes I hope to get the Booster licensed as well for WF Winter 2005.

Rob

We will keep crossing our fingers so it works for you..I think you have gone through a lot to helps us out...you deserve the opportunity..

weird for some reason I cant get over that neck maybe the head is falling forward to expose the seat?? does anybody eles know why this kit was made with that long neck? well beside the neck you doing a good job

the neck can be mounted slighly higher or lower but you can't do much about it unless you cut it shorter...it might look weird at first but it doesn't look bad once you see it from a different angle...in fact the so-so detail in the neck is pretty nice...

Nice man...nice...

Darn you Jesse, I didn't know all those details about the Club-M 19 and 21, now I'm gonna have to get them.

I didn't know that with your expertise on 1/72 models you haven't figured that by now..

They also happen to be some of the hardest models to find ever althought they have been popping out lately on Yahoo Japan. I have the YF-19, 21 and VF-11 and they are outstanding kits...just keep in mind that this might be the only way to get a well done 1/72 scale VF-11 ever...and display them them aside the hasegawas...

Luckily I found them fairly cheap...

So let your hunt begin...you won't be dissapointed once you find them; I can guarantee you that...

wait until the comrade in Mexico finish his model; they are big and well detailed...and most likely he'll recast a few..

awesome..!!! but why did the pics have to be so darn small..?

I just have one thign to say about this one...

why does grayson has to wear the old Robin costume for most of the movie? it would make more sense if he changed it to another type of "robin" costume, specially if he has already grown up...why not wear his old pal batman's suit..?

last one for now...

a Hiney shot...

I like the way its coming along...I believe..or at least i want to believe; this is the very first gerwalk of the Minmay guard done this way on a hasegawa

the fast packs are a bit heavy and it can't stand under it's own weight for the time being...I will adjust that later..
