Always do, this is a permanent approx 17% discount arbit, you got a memory! I had to check at Anymoon review to confirm. I just need to dig the cave for the box.

On a side note, this scene is the one that bothers me most in the whole frontier series because it is flawed. At the beginning, the Vajra grabs the pilot with its smaller leg, the one that has 3 fingers, and when he squeezes the pilot, there is a zoom in the hand that now has 5 fingers and the shape of the larger leg, but without the red carapace on it...

I just made what I call "TMM 201", where the "T" stands for "Triangular shaped" missile so you can reproduce the Master File cover picture of Hayate's VF-31. The TMM 201 come in a 6-pack, and you will need triple pylons to attach them. I also checked my SV-262, SV-171 and the pylons are good on these 2 aircraft too! But I don't remember if the knights used any exterior missiles ever ? I have to re-watch the whole Delta again ! -sigh-
-
I gonna try something similar but with less blood!
-
I really like this nose! And the landing gear too!
-
Ha and looks like that Shapeways will introduce the new HP Jet Fusion 4200 which is supposed to have a glossy finish, twice more definition as the WSF for half the price... If it ever comes true, this model will become much more affordable
-
Thank you guys! Arbit, I would love to but I just don't have the "whatever is needed" to make a video. I wish I could sell the concept and spend the money to send it to a Macross convention and to Jenius for a complete review !! Come on Bandai buy it
-
Another thing bothering me is that the Yamato hands hold badly the VF-25 gunpod... ho well, when such small details are bothering me, this is time to stop tweaking things, otherwise I will end making a whole VF-1 from scratch.
-
This is the VF 1 X ++ variant, my favorite VF 1 mainly because it is the technologically most advanced VF-1 using such exclusive features that only a few elite pilots as Hakuna can make it fly ! Making the complete wing is an option, but because you need to sand a lot and that the wing is thin (then hard to smooth homogeneously), the result from WSF plastic would be a little "meh". I still can make the addon part to be glued on the wing though. The thing that really bother me are the armor plates on the chest, over the wings. I must find a way to attach them nicely, they are very important to me, because they contribute a lot to the VF 1 X++ look in battroid, making it more similar to a VF-25. Have a look to the pictures below. hehe, these are the supers parts! should look super
-
I was looking around the web and looks like the VF-17 kit also exists: that would be a "Seventh Moon" 1:72 scale. http://www.geocities.jp/tf_ranger/mokei_sonota_vf-17.html
-
almost there... I need to brain storm how to attach the armor plates on the chest / wings and I will be good.
-
NZEOD did actually found an official kit of the 171, I don't know for the 17 though.
-
I would stay away from any 2nd hand 262, because of the wing emblem scratches
-
Thats some hell of a concert JVMacross, why are you unpacking, are you moving ?

I made a new shop category for these DX missiles and pylons adapters: https://www.shapeways.com/shops/xigfrid3dshop?section=Missiles+and+Pylons+DX+compatible&s=0 Up to purchase: -set of 18x AMM 101 missiles (2 versions with or without clear tips) -set of single and dual pylons for the 18x AMM 101 -set of pylons for custom HMMs -set of 4x HMMs for these DX pylons -set of 4x pylons that can attach the Reactive Missiles from the VF-25 armor packs (Alto or Ozma) -set of 2x dual pylons for the VF-25 Armor pack Reactive Missiles (would look like the VF-31J in Audio Armor Pack with reactive missiles on the forearms) -set of 4x pylons for station4 on VF-25 -set of 4x single missile pylons for DX (VF 30, 31 and 171) -set of 4x flat section pylons for general use for VF 30, 31 and 171. On my todo list: -VHMMs which would be compatible with all the single missile DX pylons (including station4) -?? Sort of triangular missiles as per the cover of "Variable Fighter Master File VF-31" -DX adapter for the Arcadia YF-19 HMMs

With comrades

How dynamic a pose can be?!
-
Send me in PM a few pictures of your gun and what needs a replacement, if there is just a few parts it can be worth it.
-
Nice !
-
nice concept!
-
Making a replacement is possible but it would be a PITA to sand it down for glossy paint. And being pretty large, it would cost approx 45-50$ at shapeways. At this price point I think I would have gone with te other solution which is to buy another 27 and sell the one missing the gun.
-
Well you can try one of these 1:72 pilot kits, or preiser/Noch painted figures, by just adding the helmet with some putty. you will obtain a better result. The only good printer at shapeways for this kind of figure would be FUD or Black Acrylate HD with sprues, that means 10$ a pilot or printing a batch of 10/20 units and reselling these individually. I don't know if EXO still make 1:72 figures, but he could help you find the pilot if you want to PM him
-
Female pilot: I don't how to make that with sketchup ? I just tested, this is very tight there bu tfeasible
-
That looks like the final revision was made to avoid the sticker to go over the rotating joint of the left wing.
-
Am in for these Mde missiles! Even if the pylon breaks we can still print a replacement ! Lol edit: I would also love to get the link of the "painted" fan racer.
