  1. There's only one thing for sure, This thread is shaping up to be an instant macrossworld classic or/and it will get locked
  2. They are getting the money Bandai sells X number of VF-171 valks "wholesale price" to e-tailers/retailers. If the e-tailers sell above the suggested retail price is beyond bandai's control. Unless Bandai sells the VF-171 through their webshop directly to the fans (tamashii exclusive). They should've made more units though...
  3. What a relief that I don't like the VF-171!! My money will go for the VF-17D instead
  4. Good luck with your mod, post pictures when done!!
  5. Guess I'm the only one that doesn't like it a bit. The VF-17 is one of my favorites, but the long nose of the VF-171 kills it for me. I won't preorder so there's going to be one more out there for you guys
  6. I still want the VF-25 canon fodder!!!
  7. Great question! I'd like to know that too.
  8. You can have one of mine for free. No need to pay for shipping either. Time to give something back to the people that run the site and pay for the bills (Shawn & Graham) Shoot me a pm with your address and I'll ship it tomorrow.
  9. Absolutely beautiful VF-4, one of the best out there!!!!
  10. Another whole level of awesomeness!!!
  11. Another great custom!!!!
  12. Some pics to show the finish of the flat clearcoat (the hatch to access the cockpit). The first three pics were taken at night with bad light. The last four are more accurate to what the colors look like in person.
  13. Nice clean paintjob!!! Good choice of color too.
  14. I can't believe I've missed that custom!!! One of the best VF-25 cusstoms out there!!! Thank you for posting the link.
  15. Awesome start so far!!! Don't think you suck at modelling at all. The proportions are pretty much dead on. Keep up with the good work, can't wait to see more progress.
  16. That D head looks awesome!!!
  17. I'm spray painting it with enamels (two coats) and then a flat clear coat. I'm waiting a week for the enamel coats to fully dry, and I've already tested the flat clear coat on some pieces. Very satisfied with the flat finish. I'm not using primer because of the texture of the hdp resin, the paint adheres very well to it. I will use primer for the legs though, to see any imperfections after sanding because I'll use putty to get rid of all the seam lines. Thank you!! Will post more progress pics tomorrow.
  18. I am, but first I'm doing the Iigaa. Got pushed back. I'm finishing the HDP Regult and then I'll resume the Iigaa scratchbuild.
  19. I'm doing blue/white. I'd do the green if we had the correct headsculpt.
  20. Let me introduce the Amigurumi Nightmare: Permanently stuck in my head too
  21. Instant buy!!!
  22. Yes, the darker blue was my choice. I like the contrast with the light gray. I'll see how it turns out in a piece with the flat clear coat.
  23. Thanks!! I was contemplating weathering it but since 90% of my Yamatos are non weathered I'll keep the build as toylike as possible. I'll putty the seam lines and will give it a flat clearcoat finish.
  24. Started to work on Yamato's HDP Regult kit.
  25. Guys, need some input about my choice of colors for the Regult. What do you think about the light gray and light blue I chose?
