Lol that made me laugh. You can still have a good time with LEGO, according to them up to the age of 99

Cute, but a total rip off. At 129USD, you'd probably be able to build this set using real Lego's for the same amount of money. Download yourself LDD or Stud.io and you can rebuild the set based on the pictures. That's what those Chinese knock off companies do anyway with all the HOT sets on LEGO Ideas. That's why I'll never buy a product from them. They rebuild sets based on pictures the original creator posted, and the result is just garbage. Since most designers don't post pictures of the internal structures, the copy cats have to improvise. What you get are disasters like the Lepin Gundam.

Sharing some pictures of the actual build. The project has now around 1270 votes with over 500 days to go. If you are internste, you can support the idea at: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/abb7ff10-7691-4461-8f95-3040a169ae48

Thanks for the support!

Hi guys. One of my creations was accepted into Lego Ideas. It's the VF-1A in fighter mode, 64cm in length, no transformation. It features multiple features like sweepable wings, functional landing gear and wing flaps. In order for it to make it into the review phase I have to reach 10000 votes. If you like it and think it's something that would interest you, I hope you could support it on the Lego Ideas site. You can find my project here: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/abb7ff10-7691-4461-8f95-3040a169ae48 Thank you!

No I didn't, my wife was using my phone to take pictures. I was just too focus on the two valks. One of them was partially disassembled , so before I met him I had to put it back together to have it actually signed. If he ever comes back to Manila I'll have one of the ARMD carriers signed and I'll print out a nice poster sized picture of the SDF-1 for him to sign as well. But knowing that Kazutaka Miyatake designed the SDF-1, I wonder if it would be okay though. Thanks, it was the number one topic during my last LEGO Group meeting. I'm happy that I was able to go and that my wife supported me in this. She waited with me for 9 hours.

Haha, I'm seriously wondering that too. I wish I would have at least brought one of the ARMD carriers. But I had my hands full with the two battroids. One of them was in my backpack the other one I had in a paperbag. I had to be ultra careful because people kept on bumping into my stuff. He looked very happy and pointed out areas like the chest and other pieces, he called his assistant over and had her take pictures. He genuinely seemed to appreciate the builds. If it wasn't for the language barrier I'm sure we could have had a short but interesting conversation about the MOCs. Thanks! I would have waited even longer if it would have been necessary. There was a time where I thought I wouldn't make it because the line was progressing at a crawl. Pretty much everyone who fell in line had items signed and commissioned a drawing/ sketch, which took anywhere from 5-10 minutes. Thankfully I was among the first 40-50 people that day. We were there before the event started, and the lines were loooooong. I wonder if people who arrived in the afternoon were still able to get an autograph, I heard he signed till 8pm, I was done by 7pm. We arrived at the event at 8:30am.

Just wanted to share this with you guys. I had the honor to meet Shoji Kawamori himself during the Asia Pop Comic Con. I waited 9 hours in line that day to meet him and have my LEGO creations signed. It was an amazing experience. I felt like a little kid, I was nervous as hell. A moment I won't forget

@Mazinger Thank you! @arbit Try changing the theme into extended, that makes all pieces available in all colors. Otherwise, as already mentioned by M'Kyunn, the inventory is incomplete. It might take some time until it will be updated again.

Thank you guys! As said by @barurutor, this set wouldn't make it far. Licensing would definitely be a problem. On top of that, this is not really a play set. It's comparable to LEGO Ultimate Collector Series sets, it's made of over 1000 bricks and is rather fragile. You build it, pose it, and then place it in your display case/cabinet next to your other Valks. I just wanted to create something that I could display next to my SDF-1 during conventions. @ScrambledValkyrie Most parts were sourced off Bricklink, some came from my own stash. But Bricklink is your #1 source for LEGO bricks. When I build the actual set, I back track my own steps based on the LDD model. I use blueprint to create instructions, LDD's generated Instructions are useless in most cases, You've got to group and subgroup parts of your model, and even then LDD creates steps that can't be followed. You can export a parts list/ inventory any time, it just can't be imported into Bricklink. You have to manually search for each part.

Time to update this thread with the actual builds. I've made decals to add detail to the mocs. I haven't taken pictures of the A yet, so I'll just post the S for now. Some quick info on the set, it's 39cm / 15.8 inches tall, approx 1150 bricks.

Thanks for the kind words guys, I'm glad you like it.

Sorry you guys had to wait this long, but I finally took some pictures. I finished the last ARMD carrier last night for today's event, so you guys finally get to see some pictures of the finished SDF-1. I'll update the first post as well. Hope you'll like them!

This is amazing! Keep up the great work.
