My first trip to get Detolfs I mentioned above was 4.5 hours driving - each way ... still worth it.

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Paid $300 for the Low Vis on eBay ... still getting back into the swing of collecting so I don't know if that was a decent price or not but I jumped on it. -

After having and losing a decent little collection of 1/55 valks in the late 90s, I've recently gotten the collecting bug again. Here's the results of my recent little spree: -
Detolfs are awesome - simply the best display cases you can get for the price. I actually needed something that was comparable to a Detolf but a little smaller to fit in a specific area - I ended up paying 2.5x as much after shipping for something else (this).

Personally I think these stands are going to push me to buy more valks

Guessing Detolfs by the price. Consider yourself lucky, I live in Cincy and when I got my first 2 Detolfs, I had to get them from Pittsburgh because they didn't have an Ikea in Cincinnati yet.

Awesome thanks!

Doh! sorry about the typo. Thanks for the info. Is there a link to the list you compiled - I'd love to see it.

The only references to the SCV-8 Blue Roses I found were on many custom valk models posted on these forums - before that I had never heard of them, hence the reason I asked. I couldn't find any reference to them either of the Variable Fighter Master File: VF-1 Valkyrie book #1 or #2 (I don't have the Squadrons books yet). Nor was it mentioned in This Is Animation: Macross Plus Variable Fighter's Aeroreport where some other squadrons are. As for the SVC designation, there are references to SVC-133 "Starhunters" (pg125) and SVC-131 (pg91) in the Variable Fighter Master File: VF-1 #2 book. I actually was organizing a list of the printed squadrons (bored waiting for the VFMF Squadrons book from HLJ) when I came across multiple posts here talking about SVC-8.

Newbie question: where did the SCV-8 Blue Roses come from? I looked through 8 pages of search results going back to 2003 but couldn't find anything that mentioned the origins. Thanks..
