    I understand, but it still doesn’t correct the issue so all the bomb markings are standing the same when they are all mounted.
  2. nightmareB4macross
    Well yes, but aren’t these all supposed to display in the same orientation as the outer bomb? So really, the hard point connected is to blame. Or at least that’s what I recall from lineart, anime, and many other macross renditions of toys and models. The more I look at these DX the more I keep finding issues that irk me, but don’t get me wrong it is a beautiful piece with so many inconsistencies that it makes me wonder if it was even worth it.

    So is there a reason why Bandai applied the bomb markings in two different orientations?

    It is so unfortunate for the 262. This was the only breath of greasy air to be released from any company in along time and now we will never see another version or variant of it. Such a shame and a waste of an awesome design. Hope to be proved wrong after the new movie.

    Welcome back! Been a long time since I have seen you around. Hope life has been good since your hiatus. Are you still collecting and customizing Jetfires?

    It would be great to have the PF VT-1 released. Has there been anymore news about the VF-4 FB 2012 version? It’s been quite a while since any news has comes to light, I really hope this doesn’t become vaporware.

    Well, I think for some of us we collect for various reasons and it’s not just to collect. My tendencies are as a hobbyist: - Collect the series or buy what I like. I usually do the former for most of my purchases. - Nostagia. New and vintage. - Mechanical design and visual appeal. - MIB, open and play, display, customize, whatever comes to mind when purchasing. And method exercised during purchases usually leads to multiples. - Buy extras for the kids to play with aside from what I buy for myself. - Army build, to mostly customize. While I do like to collect, my display itself is limited by me as don’t want to display everything all at once or I feel I would get bored of it. Cycling my collection throughout the year helps keep things fresh and appealing no matter the age or subject. My collection has a purpose, to basically tell a visual story of what I like and who I am. I think that’s how most collectors are.

    I am such a bonehead...my mind was so focused on all the VF-171 I thought these were custom 171s CF and I forgot what the actual VF-25A CF looks like. I think I have not taken any VF-25 from the garage of any kind in almost two years.
  10. nightmareB4macross
    Excellent custom!
  11. nightmareB4macross
    I’m curious about these customs. Got more pics to share in various modes?
  12. nightmareB4macross
    Did you buy into the entire SD line? I remember at one point they were attempting to release most of the main character variations and some support character/mechs. All I ever bought was these (for dirt cheap), as I just wanted to see what they looked like next a JM.

    Fourth shelf needs a Milia 1J in GBP.
  14. nightmareB4macross
    She is a real beauty! Excellent work as always, Captain!!
  15. nightmareB4macross
    Xoxokin, You’re custom is looking great! Will you be completing your custom by painting these areas circled in yellow?
  16. nightmareB4macross
    Those shelves are looking great!!
  17. nightmareB4macross
    For those of you who bought into this kit...will you be removing the seem from the canopy? It’s hard to see from this picture but when you see the video the seems really stands out.
  18. nightmareB4macross
    Thank you.

    There is a picture of the Strike VF-1S but I can’t read Japanese. Anyone know what it says?
  20. nightmareB4macross
    Nevermind.
  21. nightmareB4macross
    Like most who ordered from NY, I too will have to wait. And thus begins my need to find more issues with this VF-1S. I remembered there was a close up angle of the cockpit and noticed just how bad the markings are on the DX compared to the official placements. Most of issues seem to stem from overly enlarged kite symbol.
  22. nightmareB4macross
    Wow!! Great mod! Welcome to the boards. I hope to see more of your work in the future.
  23. nightmareB4macross
    Well that does refer back to what you were saying about the value of which an item should be sold or could be sold. It all depends on the owner. I am pretty sure you can find the parts your missing for far less elsewhere. When I was looking for a turret it took about a year until I found just the turret for the correct side. The right part at the right price. Hope you find what you’re looking for.
  24. nightmareB4macross
    Yup. I had the last Konig still in the box when this was taken. These definitely are well worth the cost.

    IIRC, the vertical lines are for DYRL. The TV style only have these little triangles. But neither has ever placed them on their valks. Photo sourced from M3.
