Hal9000, i have a quick question for you. Did you repaint your VF-0S? The white looks really bright, much more than mine ever did. I mean it looks really great, i was just curious how you were able to achieve such a nice shade.
-
Great pictures!The VF-0A and the VF-1J stealth still look great after all those years. I miss so much the 1/48s...
-
I will have to go with this...well, Minmei is optional but it adds a great feeling to the model. I have been wanting to display something like this for decades i guess. A dream that comes true. There is a tiny detail that i changed on the model, really subtle but for me it made a huge difference. Can you guys spot it?(i am sure you can )
-
I got mine last night and i just opened it.. First impression...this toy is really ugly.Looks likea big piece of... blue. Panel lines are too shallow. Probably things will get better with stickers but as it is now it really looks awful. Probably one of the worst valkyrie i have in my collection. Huge disapointment considering Macross Zero is one of my favourite series. I will try to post other thoughts later on but so far i am not happy with what i have.

I am sorry, Noel. I feel stupid now. I didn't mean to be disrespectful. Thanks for claryfing that
-
Thanks no3. I guess it won't fit then since the hole in the new one is more rectangular than the yamato version. Thank you anyway. I guess my old gunpod will have to do for now
-
Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Great buy Valkyrie driver. My sv-51 cf is a bit floppy too(also my nora actually) but i still love it. I think there was a tutorial somewhere in order to tighten the joints but i am not quite sure where you can find it now. -
I was wondering, would the gunpod from the arcadia YF-19 fit on the Yamato version. I guess it wouldn't on fighter mode but what about battroid? I never liked the arcadia version but honestly the only thing i don't like about my yamato one is the gunpod. A battroid mode of the yamato with the arcadia gunpod would be perfect for me.
-
Thanks for the update no3. I will keep my eyes open then. It seems like it is going to be very tricky to get one anyway.
-
Isn't the Bandai version for...well, "few chosen ones"? Is it really to be considered competition? Or did i miss something? I mean, are pre-orders going to reopen after the first release? I would love to get a VF19, although if it is from another saga than the original valk it really looks great!
-
I know I am probably the only one but I am actually pretty disappointed by these announcements. I own four 0s (two S and two A) and none of them had a single qc issue. I know I have to consider myself a very lucky guy and I understand that arcadia released these models also to be able to fix the previous problems. But honestly I do not think that the look of the models can be improved that much. Or at least cannot be improved so much to justify a 300 usd.(kinda the same thing that happened with the new YF-19 release for me). I mean the yamato models had the pilot seat turning while transforming…can it get any better than that? I don’t think so. Judging from the pics posted I can already tell that I still prefer my old 0s in fighter mode. Battroid seems a little slimmer but as I said before for me, the design of these models cannot be improved so much from the old ones. I will probably buy the S to get the reactive armor once released but for the rest I was really hoping for something new or different.

I see, it's from the new manga then. I didn't get to read it yet but that model is tickling my curiosity now. I see there is also a VF-1J V.1. Well, i keep mine displayed too.I love that model so much i will never get rid of it. If i am allowed to give you a little suggestion, if you put the stickers on it's gonna look so much better! That's what i did with mine few weeks ago(after almost a decade) and it looks just great!
-
That's a great display jvmacross...the best of different generations...i love the purple meltran(?) sneaking on the left. What model is the red and white 101 (hikaru) on the right side of the hangar? I can't recognize it.
-
Thank you so much! I will check that out! I am not a big fan of my yamato in battroid mode(although i still love it in fighter mode) and i really think that arm cannon is a little detail that could improve the toy a lot!
-
That looks really awesome! Where can i get one of those? I own both version of the Yamato release but i do not remember it being included in any of them...
-
I think that on the Do you remember love PSX game there is a cut-scene where you can see a white VF-1A(Hikaru?) and a C.F. VF-1A with part of the armor on. It looks pretty sweet, in both of the VF.
-
I totally agree with what you say. Not only i kept few of my old vf-1 1.0 but i i still prefer some of the old models to the v2. Specifically the super ostrich and the VF-1J max and millia(except for the pilots). Plus, the legs. I mean the legs of the V.2 are just terrible. In general i feel that the battroid version of the v.1 feel more "mecha" than the v.2, whom are great for posability but they always looked too "human" to me.
-
Thank you very much, great to know. Now i just need to find a VF-1J super and another VF-1S...not an easy quest...
-
Yes, that was the box i meant. So, would it work to put the super parts on the VF-1J on a 1/48 VF-1S roy? I mean, we could have a 1/48 VF-1S HIKARU TV version...
-
Hi guys! Quick question. Are the super parts included in the 1/48 VF-1J HIkaru super valkyrie the same ones(mold and color) of the super (and strike) parts that you could buy in the regular yellow and black box? Thanks!
-
Thanks again It would be a perfect christmas gift...euro-dollar exchange rate is still good for us
-
Thank you for you suggestion. I will try to hunt down this cd then I always thought that the BGM in DYRL were at least as good as the songs with lyrics.
-
Hi everybody, I wanted to ask for a quick suggestion. What would be the best cd with the soundtrack (including BGM of course) for Macross do you remember love? Since that there are so many cds available on the net for Macross i would like to have your opinion about it. Thank you!
-
Thank you for all your reply. I really appreciate it. SCYLA: Yes, mine looks like the picture you posted. You can see it better "live" but i really think it is that kind of canopy. And i am starting to see the cracks too. A lot of them. Very little but there are many. I personally don't like the rainbow canopy and i would like to change it. Is there any tutorial on how to do it? And above all, where do i find another one?
-
Hi guys, I just received today a VF-1S Max 1/60 from Yamato. Although the item was preowned it really looks in great conditions. The only problem that i have is that the canopy is not completely trasparent but has a sort of multicolor tone. Not quite sure how to explain it, the reflection of light just seems weird, like it was made using different shades of color. Is that normal? Should i return the item? I mean i own almost 50 valks and that's the very first time i see something like this. Thank you for taking a look at this and i apologize if the topic has been talked about already. I have to admit i have been out of collecting Macross toys for few years.
