Truly inspiring! I can't wait to see you building the inner town now!
-
Please reserve me a painted kit!
Will do! I will PM you some info Monday
-
Bro, am I late for a painted one? Landing gears and everything?
Hi man! There is still a few painted kits coming soon that haven't been sold or reserved, so you are still good to secure one.

Painted version a bit later, hopefully in 2 weeks, except those who ordered extra painted figures

Any updates on shipping details for paid for unpainted kits?
I need to finish 3 more kits. For the most part, I have already test fit them, they need a last check. In the mean time I have some UN SPACY kite logo masks being sent to me so that your painting job is easier. I will receive them tomorrow hopefully. Shapeways parts received, I did a fast check and everything seems good.
So all in all, I will have the whole first batch sent by the end of the week. You will receive a PM with tracking as soon as I got them.

Hi Jasonc!
Thank you for the update. About the orange, I used the TS-12 from Tamiya it looks good, but if you find another more accurate to the "training orange", that would be even better! And yes there are 25 drones for the 1:60 scale, including 2 unpainted for the same guy (Bolt
)

I am speechless! That's the most impressive 171 stacking ever!
The 171 CF is quite unique for having a sexier canopy than the hero valks, and a nicer armament bundle also!
-
I know the size has already been decided but here is a pic I found:
That's one big sucka!
Thank you for the pic, this one is the illustration of the "movie" size of 30m height with beam canon. Don't worry, I also found a way to slightly increase the lobster height by making a bigger chest and still not increasing a lot the printing price, so it would be pretty impressive!

I hate the color, but the head and transformation just had me sold for Delta!

1) Small update: I have refined the Yamato stand adapter and it should be nice fit now. Available here
2) 10 Ghosts I prepared last week went to the painting this weekend. They will be back in 2 weeks or so. Those who have ordered painted version, please hold on a little more!
3) I am receiving the plastic parts from Shapeways very soon and I will be able to begin the shipments periodically as I will have to cut and sand the metalic parts. I want to prepare all the paid orders at the same time so technically that would happen next week or before 2 weeks from now.

Just updated my Shapeways with a new model hands for VF-4G. I printed it in Black Strong and Flexible.
You will need some tools to insert the 2 rods per hand. I made these rods from 1mm diameter nails.
I have been making hands for VF-4G for a long time, and this version is by far the sturdiest and firmest one.

Great news Jeff! I would love more picts once weathered !

It's backwards. It says "human size".
That size (30 m) appears to come from the movie version. You're reference images appear to come from the TV version. You could say that one is accurate, and the other is in error.
Or they're both accurate to themselves. I'd recommend going with what looks closest, but doesn't break the bank when you make it.
Thank you so much for the clarifications! Now I feel relieved if I choose the intermediate size!
30m... even though its going to be crippling.
Second option is the next size down as long as its still bigger than the Valkyrie.
I think I prefer the intermediate size, but I will reduce the details size to match the TV, that means reduce the head size a bit for instance. BTW I will imagine the Vajra are like reallife lobsters: they can grow infinitly so all sizes are correct.
Only the bigger ones can fight a VF-25 and the largest can destroy the convoy where Ranka was an infant (this one is like 100m high! and even pictured in the TV episodes)

I have pictured the VF-25S to be 14m53 high without the antennas
Anyone who can speak Japanese ?
According to this little guy, who generally is 1m80 tall, the lobster should be 12m80 high (without high beam canon). It is pictured on the side of the 25S. This is very small.
The intermediate size, the guy would be 2m40 (quite big hein), the lobster is then 17m10: this is my preferred looking size.
The larger size, the guy is 2m95 (a giant!). The lobster would match the 30m height given by Macross Mecha Manual, including the laser canon. The size is also believable for the lobster but not the guy.

Nice! How do you plan to make the glass? That's the most difficult point to me
-
Seems huge on top of that!

I have a ton of magnets, so if it works better, I'll probably modify the connection piece so that it does work. The magnet can probably be glued in, covered with material, and painted. I can't wait for it. I really want to fix this thing up well, which may include LEDs and such.
I can't wait to see that!

Small update about the magnetic attachment of the Supers Parts: I tested and placed the magnets in a place where the thickness is reduced down to 1mm. But the magnetic strength is too reduce because of this 1mm thickness. To perfectly work, the magnets would be placed on the surface, in a hole.
That means that the current design need to be drilled and thickened with some putty to hold the magnets. That's a lot of work and trouble, even for my sample, I decided to keep the mechanical attachment.

Made a few prints of the wings skull emblem in ultra thin vinyl adhesive. Looks pretty good, would you be interested in buying?
Just received my stickers and they are gorgeous Takatoys! You deserve the praise. Thank you again
