Hey no worries! Your photos are always sublime! The price of the original Yamato version (post initial availability of course) definitely is a transformation deterrent so its probably a good thing that fighter mode is the only mode I actually really like!
-
Great photo Saburo! Even though im not a big fan of this Valks non fighter modes.. this does look very good! I think the biggest let down for this Valkyrie is its head design, followed by its arms and how the nose cone sits in this mode. Other than that its fairly decent.

I had thought it could be a F-35A as Australia is getting them and when my (former) boss went to Hawaii for a holiday he saw some there and said they were mighty loud so I figured it could be a possibility it was one. Can't really see much in the way of lighting as it must be flying up at about 3000ft (thats a guess of course) and im not so good at identifying marks or lighting. But I also just read that none of the F-35's bound for Australia are even here as yet.. so it might not even be one. I wonder what else it could be but I doubt it would be anything interesting as Australia is pretty boring when it comes to things like this..

yeah dem were the days eh! Now that Mitsubishi has ended the EVO line they pretty much don't have anything sporty at all.. I wonder how long the WRX will keep going essentially without any direct competition? A mate at work recently bought himself a EVO8 MR and I helped him look for a clean, stock as possible, low mileage example which proved a real tough task. Clean bone stock originals are either non existent or stupidly priced and the only other option was to go with something that has been tastefully modified. We found a nice white EVO8 MR in QLD which the owner had worked up quite well but wanted over 60k for it. We found another for about half that which is the one he bought. Needs some things corrected but is mostly pretty good. Geez do some people go overboard with the carbon fiber though!

not that ive seen..

never heard a harrier sadly but were I live we use to have RAAF F-111 fly overs quite regularly and they were very noisy buggers! Now its just Hornets and Super Hornets which are cool but not as bad. There is a plane which is very loud that does occasionally fly over but later at night that is very noisy but being dark I can't identify it.. not sure what the RAAF would have that's noisy still flying around unless its something new they are intentionally keeping out of sight?? F-35A perhaps?
-
hehe! that was great!
-
they are gonna be pricey which is why I was only going to get the one but I think I want one for display and the other MISB for keeps. 3 would be too far a stretch for me I think.. still need to keep saving for UK trip in May..

nice! -
so guys, how many Monsters are you looking at buying? Im definitely in for one but am thinking of getting two!

my uncle had a 90 model silver but in auto which he sold in 95 towards buying a new house. But he kept his silver (non turbo) 300zx.. the guy doesn't really know what a good car is even if it ran over him. the prices of clean original and manual NSX here in Australia have been astronomical for quite some time now.. and extremely rare!
-
yeah they are a nice bit of kit! I've always really liked the 3000GT! Much more so than the Nissan 300ZX twin turbo which is still a nice car though.. but ultimately would love to own a original Honda NSX! even if its not turbo charged like the others.. An original 1990 or 91 model in red with the smaller wheels. How friggin sweet would that be! so hard to find. And most I've seen are automatics or poor condition tacky modded examples..
