    No it isn't. They did it with a model kit in 1/72 scale. It was a SHE kit I think. http://www.macrossworld.com/macross/models/she/she_vf11b.htm If a model could do that, then I think if Yamato did make it 1/60 scale it would be possibile for them.
  3. For me my pick was Hikaru. If you notice when you change throughout the modes, there seems to be a change in the manoevubility in between fighter and Battroid mode. Fighter mode is by far the quickest, and the three lasers have great penetrative ability. Millias GERWALK beam boomerrangs were cool too though. Max is certainly a good beginner valk, those homing balls were awesome, but yes do lack power. It's pretty goodfor the bosses if you are dodging half the time and can't really aim.
  4. Fo' sure! But I must admit, if I didn't have the opportunities, I would go for these.
  5. I got to say Graham, you did a good job in mentioning out concerns over the colours of the original. You've changed my mind! I'm buying three! Thankyou again.

    I wanted to control the variables so that you can only choose one option, forcing you to choose your favourite. Who voted for the Ghost? Was that you Graham? Was it because you know that the other two are being made?
  7. I would also like Yamato to make valks easy to take apart again, just like the 1/48 VF-1. Fixing my VF-0 to make it stable in the arms and ankles was a pain in the butt, and most of the parts were glued. More screw attachments please. Good for customisers too, or for just cleaning your valk.
  8. I finally opened up the forearm. Man that was a royal batty of a process. And you know what was the kicker? I didn't need to. To fix the loose elbow, just aim to pry the white cylindrical thing that envelops the biceps of the arm. It splits in two and is glued. There you will find a screw. Open it up, put some wood glue in and you're set. I wish I didn't ahve to open the legs, cause they won't hold now without glue. What glue do you guys recommend to keep it together?

    I wonder if the confirmed YF-19 is affecting the poll, or am I just resentful of you guys voting for something else.
  10. Pretty sure you want to drop off a few Super Max VF-1Js as well. 423300[/snapback] You wish I Definitely got enough, no more no less. No customs will come from those babies. Got 3 VF-1A Max if you want tho'.

    I've always wanted the YF-19. She's a beauty to be sure, and also I'd like to see how Yamato did the transformation.

    Say that Yamato brang out all three of these on the market at one time. Which one would you definitely hit first, given that you only have one choice? Hence, you are only restricted to one option, and sithlord, Godzilla and I can't say all. Although highly unlikely that Yamato won't take the expedition to make the 21 and 11, this will provide a good idea as to which valk we really want made.
  13. I reckon and touch of an airbrush here and there in the same manner as the 1/48 LVI, with some panel-lining and voila! A classic. You got to have guts though if you don't paint much.
  14. Zoids. Any one of them. Something abnout mechanical animals and dinosaurs with weapons.
  15. Right, because if you spend $120 on a friggin' accessory to a toy it makes sense you'd have to handle it extremely carefully. I love the GBP but there's no way you should blame the poor folks who had a craptastically engineered piece break on them while they were loading the missiles. 423332[/snapback] While I acknowledge that it is not the best design, it should hold up well to a bit of stress. In loading them and pulling them out I supported that piece with my finger, instead of giving it an almighty yank by pulling only on the missile itself. A twisting motion also makes it go in a lot easier. We've already established that it isn't a chunky monkey, so let's not treat them like one.
  16. Generally bigger is stronger. I hope.
  17. kensei, seriously dude, whens the last time you had to take a set of FP's off one of your valks? probably never considering you got(my guess) 6 of each, 3 w/FP in each mode, 3 w/o FP in each mode. so you don't really run the risk of snapping it like the rest of us poor folk. 423289[/snapback] For Max and Millia, very often. I see your point, but i never force anything. There are times when it gets stuck, but I always support the backpack while pulling out the FP. It's just that, when you look at the swing bar, a white painted BP8 would look pretty ugly.
  18. Hmmm....the GBPII might not work out with my CFs so I might drop off a few. I have eight spare.
  19. Sorry! I meant PVA! You know that wood glue you used to use when you were in primary school? Got the tip from here. http://www.dannychoo.com/blogg_post/eng/422/
  20. I'm starting to think to go against the nail polish thing. It only works temporarily anyway, and also it actually melts the plastic as per ghostryder's list in the customising section. I think PVA glue would work better. Dries clear and you can peel it off. If you want to remove it gently you soak the part with the glue in water for a few hours and it turns into glue again and you can wipe it off.
  21. Can't believe so many of you broke your breasts on the GBP. Kiddy gloves guys.
  22. I don't know...it seemed like he took it rather well to me. I didn't get anywhere that he wanted to be numero uno. but he was rather proud of his collection.
  23. Yes there was. I think The White Drew Carey had a pic, but I can't for the life of me dig it up.
  24. I would have thought that it was natural progression of a design. This is reminding me of that other member, Phalanx, whom insists that Kawamori should have designed something looking like the VF-2.
