spanner replied to Gakken85's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Picked up a SV-51r Ivanov thanks to MWF member Las Vegas Dad who so thoughtfully decided on selling his! Can't wait! photo is for illustration purposes only.. mine is yet to arrive. -
Those things must be massive then!? I thought they'd be a similar size to the Luca RVF-25 drones but clearly these things are bonkers bigger!
-

Congratulations on your purchase Lolicon! So did you have these once before? I did the very same thing.. early on I bought them from a guy locally for a stupidly cheap price only to never take them out of their boxes and resold them on ebay only to want them again down the track.. -

Hey Goobermunch! At the moment I have 71 Valkyrie's with more due at the end of this year! (2x VF-0S & 1x VF-2SS) and others on my "maybe I'll buy" list.. I did have some Mospeada stuff years ago but I sold all of that off to my cousin.. Hehe! I didn't even notice the snaskasm! -

a 2nd VF-4G!!! nice work! Hope you got it at a good price! And I got close to picking up a Hatsune & bike a few times but never did.. dang it.. regretting it now. Congrats on your super fine purchases! -
hehe! how the heck did I miss that!?!? those photo's mustn't have loaded on my phone browser.. or I had a stupid moment.. So yeah looks cool but not quite the same as the model kit version..
-
I'd love to have enough Lego to build a 1/60 scale HWR-00-MkII Monster! How cool would that be!

my feelings when I think of a v3 VF-1 line.. -
this looks really good! can't wait to see it!
-
that looks awesome! Very nice kit and build! I never thought much of those conformal tanks they fit to the F-16's as I always felt they took away the planes svelte and graceful figure but of late they have started to appeal to me! The photos of this kit just re-enforce that feeling!
-
whoa!!! that looks the bollocks! certainly more interesting than the GBP armors.. shame its only a model kit for the 1/72..

It certainly is a nice feeling to reach that goal! Only thing is I found is that I basically hit a wall after that and struggled to find another direction to go in.. yes there are other things I could still get for other lines such as my Bandai DX stuff but it wasn't as high a priority as the VF-1 line was.. -
Yeah love the TV brownies! Im rather pleased with how tat pose turned out actually! It'd be nice if I could get it to lean a little more forward but the arms are at their limit of movement. Unless I trim the arms down a little.. which I don't really want to do. Hehe! im glad to know my photo helped convinced you to buy the Zero-D!

I don't know how expensive Lego is in other countries but its expensive here in Australia.. for a decent set they cost as much as a Arcadia Valkyrie.. -

I'd love to get some Lego sets but they are sooo expensive these days.. -
You're right there! The Typhoon colors are better but the Hornet still looks great!
-
Fantastic photos Noel!!! Quality is great! The Zero looks awesome with the booster and sitting next to the VF-4!
-
it certainly is unfortunate that not all issues could be corrected but I'd say Arcadia only had a small window of opportunity (or budget) to correct / improve only a few things. Yes some things are a little disappointing but overall im content how the Zero-A turned out. I really like the knee joint filler triangles for fighter mode and the fold out upper shoulder fillers for battroid are a nifty addition! oh and the corrected gunpod stow position! As 505 mentioned, compared to the original Yamato releases which were a fragile floppy mess to the new Arcadia version they are pretty much chalk and cheese. And who knows we might even get one or two minor improvements with the Zero-S.. but I wouldn't go holding your breath for too long on that happening..
-
even after a full transformation to battroid and back to fighter didn't help anything align any better especially the tailplane / backpack section which still doesn't sit flush with the rear upper fuselage.. Its not anywhere near as bad as pictured here but its acceptable nonetheless. The other thing is the upper leg section still don't want to sit up under the upper forward fuselage closely enough when back in fighter mode and having another look at the head laser there really isn't any way of straightening it either. But the rest of the Valk and the improvements and inclusions they made over the Zero-D more than make up for it!
-
hehehe! so does that mean the toy will take years to develop, be really heavy, difficult to transform and expensive to buy just like the real F-35!? with all due respects to the real F-35 which I do like of course..
