I normally just collect Macross and do not notice cels from other shows unless they somehow come up on a Macross cel search....I do, however, appreciate cels in general....I have some Mach 5 cels....but that's about it for cels from other anime...never been able to get into any other shows....

Cobbling together armor and super parts to make new, wild creations? That's the bread and butter of the VF Master Files series....

TV-Kun, July 1984.....

Ravens....

Thanks! I can only get so much out of the machine translators....I am sure I speak for everyone when I say thanks to both you and sketchley for all of your translation work!

What can Batman do against supernatural forces? Oh wait....a crazy girl with a bat took down a centuries old witch in Suicide Squad....my bad, it's DC! Think I'll wait for Dr. Strange....

Why they are called "smart"?

I think you were referring to the tv-style super packs slapped onto the VF-4 and not the Super Lightning packs....unless you prefer your VF-4's naked?

I think that is the point....it reminds me of how they depict the cobbling together of parts that were never designed to work together in Macross the First....

Maybe as well do these as well.....for both 1/60 and 1/48.... Magic hands!....

Oh cool! So the official name is Royal Cavaliers not just Cavaliers.....I knew the "SVF-26" looked familiar but I was not sure...I should have googled it!........thanks anyway for confirming it! Their VF-4 upgrade really makes them look even better than before! Still one of my favorite squadrons in the Macross Universe..... I miss Yamato...... Awesome VF-4 upgrade.....the Super Packs make the VF-4 look menancing....so i won't bother trying to figure out how they are mounted!

Can't be unseen now!

Why am I feeling deja vu? Anyways...... Hope this leads to several projects for you! All in 1/60 of course! Some suggestions for future "add-on" style projects..... VEFR-1 SDP-1 APS-11 Armor VF-1SR..... VF-1D head from Macross the First..... VF-1J head from Macross the First.... VT-1C parts....

I'll have to use google translate on those pages and see how well it translates....right now I just used it on all the squadron names....love birds....dancing skulls...etc... Here are some more pics if you guys want to "transgoogle" them... The Cavaliers-looking scheme on the VF-4 looks awesome!

TV-Kun, February 1983......

Vintage Macross TV kid's shoes by Achilles......brand new, mint in bubble card!

Someone could just do the armor, helmet and boots....and you would supply the 1/6 scale figure and bodysuit....EXO?

Unfortunately...I did not get the T-Rex kit....it is a more modern sculpt so some may prefer it.... The articulation should be similar due to requiring the use of similar joints....the waist might be an extra point of articulation for the T-Rex....

So far I have not had this issue....the connection between the legs and arms is still my biggest gripe....however, I could certainly understand the hate poured on ET's -2SS if this has also failed on several collector's samples....that piece is the only thing holding the legs to the rest of the valk in fighter mode...

Lightning has struck! Super Lightning..... Strike Lightning..... Bored of those you say? How about..... Smart Lightning..... Spiny Lightning?

Thanks for taking those crazy pics and turning them into real displays!

Reminds me why I stopped ordering new book releases from them.....their pw is still the best if you are in no rush.....

Nice cels but completely fantasy priced.... It's funny when these YJA sellers can't sell their overpriced stuff.....so they figure some sucker on ebay will buy it for sure!

Yes. I also bought his "prototype"...which uses different joints...it seems better to me...not sure why they were not used for the rest of the sets....
