  1. for glossy finish this will work. you can use a very thinned oil or acrylic paint. once dry, use a little bit of applicable thinner in a cloth (very little to reactivate the paint in the surface) and lightly clean the surface. the one used by derex though is something sold in UK and is actually a clay suspended in thinner (might be water), once dry, you only need water to reactivate everything.
  2. I always wanted to buy that wash ever since jefuemon recommended that.
  3. ^IWSP pack for RG is actually the HG version with slightly different plastic color and added decals to match the RG suit.
  4. in terms of metallic, Alclad II has been the most popular and seeing the WIP from different forum, it is worth the hype.
  5. I really wanted a rainbow canopy. Too bad, it is rare now, if only Arcadia manufacturer can perfect the process.
  6. Since you've done Yamato v2, I would say it can only get easier. the Bandai panel line for 25 renewals are deeper and thicker, there are some minimal problem like very washed out panel line due to mold inconsistency (how the right side is deep, while the left side of the same part is shallow or almost none) but as i said, they are very minimal and can be easily worked on, unlike yamato v2 where everything is shallow and thin edit: and yes, the gloss plastic helps if you are doing a panel line wash
  7. slow in progress of repainting Michael Super to non-canon Alto Still missing a lot of red and I cracked one of the Backpack tip since I forgot to trim the paint when I push it.
  8. I also remember on the pilot episode, 25F has purged the supers prior to entering the City that it is bare and even no missile payload on the wing, but upon entrance, the red vajs got hit by missile.
  9. yeah, so buy them now while its cheap and pray for re-issue. I already bought one for a different reason though
  10. it is just like you've hidden some money and found out years later that you did it (though honestly, the chance of it happening to valkyrie I purchased will never happen)
  11. Anyone knows a guide or quick step on how to paint missile cluster in the shoulder (aka, lego brick of V1) for macross 25 Super/armors?
  12. the current mandarake price for a sealed 25S is 18k yen and they usually sold within seconds
  13. ^ouch, is that the airbrake?
  14. not exactly half, but this is the most available site that has stocks https://www.nippon-yasan.com/macross/8318-macross-f-vf-25s-messiah-valkyrie-ozma-lee-custom-renewal-ver-reissue.html
  15. I am pretty sure other MWF folks can also help on repairing your toy (as seen on 171, 0 and 1) but looking at the toy ( I dont own one) I can barely see any scew holes, can it be easily dis-assembled?
  16. I already ignore the gems of his/her collector so I opted to bid for the assembly kits, unfortunately, I forgot the closing time today and my sniper bid was too low
  17. from what I learned with Anymoon/Jenius, is that yamato has v2.0, v2.1, v2.2 Arcadia is using the safest which is 2.2 and I think no difference has been made to the actual toy (other than a change on the WHITE plastic and paint they are suing) that it might be called v2.3
  18. I alway use the #4. The RG eye piece is too small to paint it, yes it can be done (reverse wash) but the sticker is actually nice. It reflects light good.
  19. ^that guy is Katsumi Kawaguchi, basically a spokeperson from Bandai for anything related to Gunpla.
  20. pricing is usually fair. Packaging is average. I only bought from them once and that was a good deal so I dont know how things will go if that went bad. If you live in a country that there is no customs taxes on toy, just use paypal and use an insured shipping.

    Yamato VF-19P

    I really want one now, but since I got the 19 advance, I need to wait and wait and tell myself to wait and wait and wait. I really like white since they are easy to paint up.

    Yamato VF-19P

    it is the toy I am waiting for HK to include in their sale, so far, it is only the 19S. Fair question, why most of the 19P I saw does not have the shoulder accessories attached?
