I have v1 Dark Gold and I do like the colors a lot. As a display piece, the gold and subtle silver panel lining makes it pop. But bear in mind with these current prices, you could get Yamato 1/48 non-canon schemes - low vis, 25th anniversary, stealth strike set, perhaps the woodland+armor as well.

This should have been released first instead of VF-25 WWM haha.. but great to see this, & hope the armors will be re-released soon enough.

That's a great score @Darotower. Looks mint! -
Interesting valk with history there, all the more when the way it was picked up equivalent to a garage sale.

This hardly ever pops up in Mandarake, so I'll just leave this here: https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1207152257&ref=list&keyword=mospeada&lang=en

Cosmo Fleet TV SDF-1, even though a bit small, is a really nice item. From Mandarake, the prices for normal color version have gone up more than double from MSRP, but the midnight smoke version still occasionally pops up for a reasonable price.

First time seeing D'stance's kit, and gotta say that's a nice solution to lengthen or shorten the nose as necessary, although it is a bit overdone for Fighter. This may not be canon, but I don't mind if Bandai adopts this for their DX, as per the modified belly plate lengths for their prototype, so long as the results still look clean. I think these changes to get around the anime magic is still quite acceptable, so long as it generally still complies with the core transformation envisioned by Kawamori. After all, the DX VF/YF-19 added the collapsing calf panels, itself inspired by the SHE kit (?), and the results were great.

All of these are just about right.

@jvmacross Sux to see these problems. I guess they out-Bandai'ed Bandai.. With these quantities they are producing, I am now wondering how do they justify running their own factory. Must be a very small backyard operation!

The green bike looks as though the VF-31 Siegfried Armored missile packs were transplanted to it..

I could have sworn the VF-1J CF, VF-1A Max, Ben & CF were 500pcs each when it was up for PO, but looks like I’m wrong. They were each far, far less.. (pics pulled from KC’s FB) VF-1J CF: 399pcs VF-1A CF: 180pcs VF-1A Max: 180pcs and drumroll for the true limited, VF-1A Ben: 98pcs!

This will be released just as the new Delta movie is coming out on Blu-Ray. Nice timing.
-
Just patiently waiting.. and hoping that Bandai will finally open the floodgates for DX YF-21 & VF-22 once Mac Plus & Mac 7 officially lands on worldwide Blu-Ray or streaming.

Love both of the pics @enphily & @no3Ljm!
-
Not that 2688pcs is a large number, it is still likely minuscule in comparison to Bandai’s already low DX release quantities, but it is getting rather comical when 2688 pcs is still advertised as ‘limited’ whilst other recent KC releases of say, the VF-1J CF was just 500pcs. Great that more people can purchase this though.

By mixing the length of the arms and some creativity, you can balance other modes on it. Here are some examples from another tread over the years. These are using Flightpose stands, but you should be able to get somewhat similar results with Calibre’s.

There is also another option for stands, which is the Calibre Wings Router-Style Stand 2.0. It works very similarly to Flightpose stands. Ver 2.0 appear to be much better than their earlier 1.0 version, as the improved metal base gives it more stability for banking poses.

I just measured the QF-2200D in front of me. It is 21.5cm from nose tip to booster, with wingspan of 20cm.

Likely get this Ghost just for itself.. It's a good thing I don't like the look of it being attached to VF-31AX, otherwise have to get the Armored set too, which I skipped, just for the overhead cannons.
