  1. I don't know the YF-27-5 counts or not, but I love it too
  2. Your 27 really has something more menacing, better posture than the 262. I like the 262 but one can clearly notice that the 27 is a more advanced valk and my favorite of the two. Too bad the thigh ball joints got so loose on Frontier's toys.

    You can still pre-order the 31A though Here is the most relevant link with prices and order page links. @spacemanoeuvres are you seriously skipping the 31A ? It is so bad!
  4. Damn you got me curious! I found this: Hakushu Whisky Single Malt Distiller's Reserve 70 cl for 75 EUR / 10000 JPY, does it worth it compared to the "non Distiller Reserve" one ?
  5. I have been thinking of the Cheyenne recently but I was pretty sure that Bandai and Arcadia could both release one because: 1) Bandai has released recently a lot of the destroids HMR and since the Cheyenne is featured in Delta episodes, it could be made in DX scale too 2) Arcadia is focusing on Macross Zero, and they should easily make one I don't know what to think of this though ... About a 3D printed Cheyenne, I initially made the Workroid, I had in mind to provide upgrade parts to swap the arms / legs / head and transform the Workroid into a Cheyenne. But since making these upgrades means to to modify most of the model, I could make an entirely new model, keeping the articulations (which is a big deal!) but making a beefier Cheyenne, more like the line art than how they appear in Frontier and Delta.
  6. I got tired of this model a few times but as a 3D challenge it is entertaining I use skechup
  7. Big update, at least from my point of view: all the anime magic has been solved and I could obtain a perfect transformation. Now I need to clean the model, check for tolerance and printability before processing to 3D printers.
  8. Erm sorry about lying for Roy, in fact his valk was heavily damaged so he landed it on 2 Oktos and saved his beloved during the explosion. As expected of an Ace pilot!
  9. If like me you love the Cheyenne design, you can't ignore the Okto which is far superior in term of maneuverability and fire power: 1) Okto vs Cheyenne debarking on the beach, easy win. 2) Okto vs VF-0D in water, shin has to flee out of the water to escape. 3) Okto vs VF-0S in the forest, Roy had to self-destruct his call to get out of the situation. 4) Nora pilots one to find Shin and Sarah in the forest.

  11. I don't know if I would buy a single, smaller scale VF-1, if it was bigger I would have

    I would totally buy a few of that missiles pack, but to be convinced they need to include a few PaCSWS for my Keiros. Otherwise I can print 4 more. This looks bada$s
  13. is your pad in inch ? If yes, this is quiet a big one
  14. Got these nice Russian military vehicles on Ebay, they were advertised as 1/50 scale but Arcadia's Isamu and Keith tells me they fit well as 1/60 scale
  15. Or they will mess things even more like what they did with the first Frontier movie, then they will need to make a second movie in a couple years to fix things a bit.
  16. Hehe thanks, just let me know if you need some help to assemble it
  17. I recently bought a few vehicles to go with the SV-262 or future Arcadia Sv-51. They were sold as 1/50, but they really look like 1/60 to me. Anyway since I got This one I couldn't resist to pose it with the Vajra.

    What about making an exclusive bundle of Arad's with the classic pod and an additional loudspeaker pod, so we need to buy multiple Arads to equippe the others?!

    Bandai DX VF-31

    You can see the whole squadron from Alpha 1 up to Alpha 5 flying in formation in one or two episodes, I remember not well but I kind of think that few of the pilots were named (or had a character design) and unfortunately killed during action. And there is Arad's version before he got enrolled in Chaos

    I am in too, damn sexy bird... too bad they haven't made a new pod for it since they changed the boomerangs into missiles in the top-rear baies.
  21. Saburo is a magician when it comes to focus with a 50mm. I am always amazed by his shoots @Saburo do you use some kind of monitoring when you are shooting ? Or you shoot and pick the best ones later ?

    So far I tested these that have pylons and they were all compatible: Sv-262, VF-31, VF-30, VF-19 and VF-171.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Erm, the original pylon is incompatible so I made a new one.

    These are from ozma armor pack, but my favorite must be the PACSwS-2C. Special mention for the TMM-201 though!
