I wish Hollywood would give me just a fraction of what they spend on this junk. I'll write and create something far better and original. Not taking a classic like 47 Ronin and "Lone Rangering it".... Too soon?

MickyG's Yamato VF-1S Unpainted, Unassembled Kit Build
505thAirborne replied to mickyg's topic in The Workshop!
One of the best looking VF-1's so far, its detail is wicked!! This will have a full detailed Gun Pod & weapons load right? -
DAMN! That is awesome, straight out of the series!

I used to keep my BAR 1918A1 on top of my old book case when I lived in LA, everyone kept their distance and asked before touching... Still no touching was allowed.

I couldn't have said it better.. no more floppy Bandai kits.

2 weeks ago my Web designer and his partner came over to properly photograph my products for my new site, My dining room/man Cave is where my bookcases of Macross/Mospeada & Battlestar are at. First two words out their mouths were "Wow" and "look at all this Robotech stuff, sweet you have Rick Hunters Veritech".... I had to bite my tongue and smile.

Looks absolutely amazing so far, the weapons load is impressive. You have to wonder.... whats the price tag on this little darling going to be?

Damn Kyp that Viper really does look awesome, the painting & Tampo look Top-notch and simply can't go wrong with Husker! Might pick a Cylon Raider & MK VII down the road, would nice to have a few that are super clean.

I bought the HGU helmet off ebay about 8 years ago for $35.00 because someone listed it as a Broken Motorcycle helmet... didn't know what they were selling and it needed a lot of work. These go for about $125-200.00+ depends on condition overall. The MBU-5 O2 mask, again expensive... a complete Rig can run $300.00+. If your lucky you can get used parts al a carte cheaper. MBU 12/14 masks are $300.00 easy. Flight helmets are a fun hobby but damn their expensive.

Bigger is better with the SDF-1!

My Wallet & Visa card just screamed at me "Don't Do it!!!!" I yelled back, "Frak you, I'm doing it!!"
-
Looks good, for $50.00 pre-assembled. Figure by the time you get the kit, paint & glue and factor in if building models isn't really your forte its a good way to go money wise! Just imagine if they did the Pegasus this way.

Thanks everyone, been wanting to do this for a really long time. Roy's helmet needs alot of up-grades to be deemed really detailed, I bought from a seller either on Evil bay or MW, can't remember, I'd like to see if I can incorporate some of my Original HGU Helmet into Roy's. like the O2 mask, Macross meets reality sort of thing. @Falconkpd, I feel you with the G-suits they are very expensive and thats for small sizes, I got lucky and found this Large size really cheap but large in Navy G-suits still means a really skinny waist so I had to make some alterations to it, fits like a glove now. Once I finally have some free time and spare $$$ I'll post some more updates on this project.

Your in for a treat derex with that 1/48 Raptor, take your time and enjoy its awesomeness!!

Hey guys, this is one those many projects I've been working on for awhile now, Next to the Macross Plus flight suits the style from Mac Zero is my other favorite. What you see so far is a genuine pair of USA made coveralls & G-Suit ( Gentex & Nomex), Getting a proper Zero helmet made is going to be very expensive, so for now my options are to display this suit as a Pilot with the UN SPACY with the new uniform yet still with an older style helmet piloting a Tomcat or a Zero Pilot with the newer issue SDF TV style helmet. Yes those are Football shoulder pads, they are the ideal base for the Shoulder boards, neck pads and straps to be mounted onto. The Black & Yellow boards you see are not the final product and the outer body once padded will be covered in a grey fabric and will look much more like Roy & Shins uniforms. If I can find a good Skull squadron & US SPACY Patch I'll definitely add those on too. Got a ways to go but I'm happy with it so far!
