Base on pictures from the last event, it could be any one of the Skull Squadron.

Hi Chris, Will this list separate the official licensed products, GK licensed from BW, GK unlicensed (bootlegs or 3P) and straight out recast bootlegs of official kits and unofficial kits, and finally 3D printed unofficial products from many individuals in production. It just gets so confusing nowadays that many of us would like to know what is “official” and how we can better support true Macross/BW products. I know I am guilty of buying recasts sometimes without even knowing until it’s too late. For example, I bought a 1/48 UD Kit years ago from a seller who stayed the product was official, but late came to discover it was an e2046 release. All the parts are well done, but I was really hoping for the original.

You can kiss your PayPal protection good bye if you happened to commit since the preorder was released.

Nice pics everyone! Here a little something... I was trying to fit the Bandai arm cannon on the YF-19 from Arcadia and it turned out better than I thought. The arm cannon does not attach to the arm like it should because of the slots and pegs on the Bandai. But if you origami this into a small packet on the back of the packet a small handle will makes itself available and so the Arcadia can hold the pack to give a distinct weapon. I thought it worked out pretty well. -
Try contacting XSToys. I believe he was the winner of that auction.

Still here after a long hiatus. Missed all the good folks from around here. Your customizing skills sure have come a long way. Excellent work indeed.

Arcadia 1/60 Perfect Transformation VF-0D for 2015
nightmareB4macross replied to Dark_Ghost's topic in Toys
ArchiNov, So the color was correct all along. It just needed to be properly weathered to achieve what we always saw in the anime. Could you get a shot of the VF-0D and the SV-51y together. Congrats to you and your customizer. Job well done! -
Gatsu, That is such an incredible build! The details and weathering are fantastic!

Soooo glad I never bought any of the Evo Toys. This Legioss looks really amazing and the new take on the cockpit really solved the issues of the elongated nose profile when in soldier mode. I hope this line is a success and we get to see a Tled down the line. Just not too far off. Pretty excited about this release.

Lots of room for our improvements the for sure, but this seems more inclined toward the Battroid versus fighter mode. Sure, there is a lot to be perfected and desired, but it looks pretty damn good to me.

Such a beautiful collection. It brought a tear to my eye. It’s always amazing to see such wonderful things I such a small space. Especially when the owner is just maintaining them and doing an amazing job caring for his collection. This would make a great front drop for any hangar. -
Those are really a great pair of customs. Your collection continues to evolve with these wonderful customs.

Appropriate Age to Let a Kid Play with a 1/55 Chunky-Monkey?
nightmareB4macross replied to Mog's topic in Toys
Personally, it has been more fun sharing my collection with my son and daughter than just collecting. Overall experience continues to be fun and both my son and daughter like to play with our toys. As they grow older they remember the toys but just don’t play as much as they used too. But I still remember the days when my son would say to my wife “Mom take a picture of me for your Facebook!” Yep, he’s had rich history with toys and continues to do so. I will always cherish these memories. I hope more parents do the same like those of us who have shared experiences here. -

Appropriate Age to Let a Kid Play with a 1/55 Chunky-Monkey?

Here is at 7 yrs old. He always asks me to pull various items at once. When he’s done we just place them back in their boxes and off to the garage they go. -

I say start them as soon as there is any interest in the subject. If you deny them this early on they might never show interest again or feel that these are toys that should never be touched. Allow them to embrace your toys no matter the age or type of toy they want to play with. In the end you can’t take it with you. As long as there is someone willing to carry the torch for even a short distance, well then that’s alright with me. These toys are replaceable, and if they are broken oh well. Let them play!! *Just to add, my son is two years old in these pics. -
You could be right. Maybe if Bandai announced an upcoming Kakyzaki TV VF-1A more consumer would be compelled to complete the Vermillion Squadron. This news does not look good for TV Valks. I hope to be wrong.

Evolution Toy - VF-2SS Valkyrie I 《MACROSS II ~LOVERS AGAIN~
nightmareB4macross replied to joppewo's topic in Toys
Ahem, This would not even had existed back in 1985 since the release of M2 was 1992. Sometime thereafter sure it could have been better. The figure does have its charm and honestly, I think it’s just fine as it is. I am one of the very few who bought four and still like them to this day. Just wish the MSRP did not sting as it did when they were released. -
Seeing this build from start to finish is truly inspiring. 25yrs have come and gone and now not only do you get to relish in your work, but all the skills you have amassed over the years are clearly illustrated. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent and patience to show us all how diligence and dedication pays off.

Great start. Hopefully everything goes back to normal for you dry soon. Looking forward to your completed build.
