Hmm one thing that occured to me Graham. So what kind of arms are being sent out for the replacements atm... the increased hardness ABS ones or the regular arms? ***EDIT*** BAHHHH... forget what I wrote. It's getting late for me and I'm getting tired. Programming for my CS class isn't fun. XD

Thanks for the update Graham.

Yea!!! That's it. I remember seeing the scheme from somewhere. I just recalled it being the IHP because of seeing the scheme recently on a resin kit (the IHP). XD

Not exactly sure... but it looks alot like the IHP YF-19. -=X

Thanks for the reassurance Graham. XD

Working on that kit atm... http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=23152

I guess I should get started on this when I get the time and maybe pick up the fast packs floating around somewhere here on the forums. XD (courtesy of graham and shawn XD) http://www.macrossworld.com/macross/models/she/she11b-5.jpg

Uhh.. whenever the WF Summer 2007 is? XD Not exactly sure since I will unable to attend.

Go back to the instructions. I think you skipped a step. Right above the knee in the lower tigh section that section pivots out. I think that maybe your problem. Unless you can include an additional pic of the leg itself. Its a bit hard to tell from the angle of your shot.

Knowing them... they'll most likely leave the pegs there. XD ***EDIT*** Seeing how the hip bars are made of diecast.

You know... It just occured to me that the YF-21 is most likely going to have removable legs. Hence removable leg on the YF-19, VF-0, and not sure about the 1/48s (since I don't own any).

Not sure if this was posted yet, but the company that made the highly sought after (limited) 1/100 full variable YF-21 in the past is going to make the respected VF-22/Max, Miria and Gamlin versions. I believe their site was updated sometime back in July. Good luck to those who attend the WF Summer 2007. http://homepage3.nifty.com/rs-labo/ Figured this should be posted in the toy section seeing as the previous YF-21 (I think) was preassembled, precolored, etc.

Yea the VF-11 is nice... The closest to the real thing is the SHE VF-11 that I have. I guess I should pick up the Fast Pack set from someone here on the forums.

Yea... I know the Yamato 1/60 YF-21 is just around the corner (hopefully), but I just wanted to start this project that I got from Grayson72 (Chad), courtesy of Valkyrie addict (for asking what kit it was then passing on the offer). http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?show...c=21955&hl= The kit unfortunately seems like the battroid will be capable of a fixed pose, so I'll be looking to modify it and add some joints in (maybe with Wave parts or some other sort... Kotobukiya). Even some LED(s)!!! Damn I don't know why I'm so fixated on the LED idea. My plan will be to: 1) Fix up the original. 2) Recast it and modify the recast by implementing joints. 3) And maybe recast a couple of those (the fixed ver or jointed ver) for the other VF-22(s) variants (Miria, Gamilin or other Customs). Yes the conversion kit does require a Hasegawa 1/72 YF-21 or VF-22 kit. It requires some cutting, sawing and other misconstruing techniques. I'm finishing up with my summer classes and I get a two week break before my (crazy) fall semester starts, so I'll be updating this thread as much as I can. I'll try to post as many progress pics as possible. Hopefully I can aim to get this conversion done before Yamato releases their YF-21 and yes I'll be looking to chop that one up too. XD ***UPDATE*** Sept 15, 2007 I pulled out the last set that was casted and took a pic. I have a box of at least eight kits waiting to be sorted through and more to be casted. I must say for a first time caster I think they came out pretty good. I'll post more detailed pics of the parts later.

LOL green stuff isn't from games workshop. Games-workshop just bought a bunch of the stuff and decided to sell it under their own label. And yes milliput was the other stuff that I was referring to that's like green-stuff. There's even others seeing that they are all epoxy. ***EDIT*** You'll have to do a search according to the manufacturer's specs on the various epoxies.

http://uk.games-workshop.com/convershunklinic/green-stuff/1/ There's an actual scientific term for it. I just don't remember what it exactly was... Keadinite or something like that. There's other stuff like it which can be more harder or softer after mixing. It's pretty much a two part epoxy. Use all the possible methods listed in that article which can help provide the finish that you want to achieve. ***EDIT*** Okay found the name and the actual company as well: Kneadatite http://polymericsystems.com/kneadatite.htm

LOL... Sorry thread has already been made: http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=22348

I have near perfect vision and pay a good attention to details. I also used Windows viewer to enlarge it to double check. XD

lol... Yamato screwed up their production pic. Just look closely at the left shoulder area right under the cover. http://www.macrossworld.com/macross/toys/royvf-0s/001sf.jpg They need to stop using first productions for their actual production shots. These pics aren't going to help them in their sales with their existing mishaps. XD

Because it is. Its just modded.

Which one? The VF-11 one?

For the heatshield covers... I'd say they use some kind of prism or color reflective material for the mini windows, so at certain angles it'll change colors from clear to blue and back.

IMO... I think that whole TF animated series is going to be crap. There goes the TF franchise.

Okay... I see how the pics were referring to the 21.

hmm... okay... bad landing gear and wing issues with the pegs?
