I will have a look closer with my own 171 as soon as I have some free time. It seems not that complicated from first sight. However, there is a mechnism that make mandatory that you rotate the leg before freeing them from fighter mode. So if you try to free them without prior rotating the leg, it could put stress on the thigh parts.

When drilling plexiglass, I use wood thread bits instead of metal bits. It heats quicker but prevents fractures. Excellent! Where do you get these genious ideas!?
-
Ha sorry!
-
I don't see which part could be broken, have you any picture of that ? I would gladly help, just send me a PM and we will work out a solution

I am in for both 0S and 0A since I don't want to support the Bandai pre-order policy. Arcadia's prices are painless compared to that!
-
Nice move!
-
I am glad of this 29b pre-order madness. It shows that we share the same fate with Myth cloths' owners. Anyway Saga sea dragon is their "Roy"!
-
I ma glad that could help your little one!

Thanks for the early pics! Can't wait for mine now! But that over-opened wing pose is damn ugly!

I tested the "Full Color Plastic" and it works. However, the colors are a bit faded in particular the black. I much prefer the "Black Strong and Flexbile" material because the black is good and the plastic is more rigid and solid. ASSEMBLY: Assembly and color comparison from left to right: the Full Color Plastic, Black Strong and Flexible, original triangle.

These answers rise more questions: -would a standalone ghost be produced? -speaking of ghost, any plan for a X-9?
-
And knowing that Roy is already 10x better selling than Ozma! I think this VF-0S will be the new Arcadia best seller
-
That's my very question, because I love the VF-0B shape, so I could eventually buy the Grey VF-0D and a spare Grey VF-0A if both grey match and combine them to make a Grey VF-0B. But I would be very upset if VF-0B is made later with the award winning red/blue/white paint schem!

I am so in for a Paladin, but hum at least as a complete upgrade kit.
-
Imagine the VF-19 advance is becoming the CF valk for the new macross TV serie!?
-
Haven't seen this config before, very nice! Well, there is a similar configuration at the Macross museum, but it doesn't count, does it? Hum, that makes me want 5 of Ikaru's VF-1J now!

Saburo's fix for Tornado is magical, I must thank you for it too I could get the Armored 25s together with the 25F "Atmosphere version" Tornado (I much prefer this version compared to the complete version). Anyway, if you get the 25F much higher, I am pretty sure you can have the Full Tornado to fit into the space. Sorry for the bad quality, phone and dark room doesn't go well together

What if he tries to spray some acrylic gloss varnish? To me it would be less opaque if using something like http://www.humbrol.com/coatings-thinners/varnishes/spray-varnishes/35-acrylic-varnish-gloss-150ml-spray-varnish.html

I made the 25F in fighter with tornado and the VF-27 in battroid. The 25F is on a flightpose stand though, I am pretty sure a small arm yeti stand could do the same -
Nice VF-4! The stickers rsally bring the details up to a new level
-
I admit that I would be in for the grey version too, that double seat nose in grey mounted on my VF-0A = total awesomeness!!

Has anyone disassembled a yamato 1/60 v2 VF-1 cockpit? Any pointers?
Xigfrid replied to DrEmilLang's topic in The Workshop!
The 1st step, and most difficult one, is to disassembly the A01 part (fig 3-07). This one is tightly fit in the Unpaint version, and I don't know if it is glued in standard V2 releases. Once A01 is disassembled, it should be as simple as unscrew and detach.

If only they could switch their FUD material with a much stronger resin that would be delightful, I have given up so many design because of that... Brass could be a solution if the antennas are not less than 1mm diameter, but much more expensive unfortunately.

Does that mean that a Yetistand can handle and display a Detolf or at least a Detolf shelf ?? The Detolf is becoming a standard for Macross display, or kind of until someone find one. Without stands, I think Klingsbo could be superior but once you got battroid mode on a Bandai stand, the Detolf height is a already tight fit.
