NY should open pretty soon I think.

I'll try to answer your questions. The front section is blue. t entire valk was 1st wiped with Simple green on a microfiber cloth, dried, then hit with a couple coats of Tamiya White Primer. I sprayed at least 2 coats of paint after giving it a mist base coat. I couldn't tell of any difference in tone though my eyes are bad so maybe there was some. I used Tamiya sprays for this. Tamiya AS-20 Insignia white, TS-8 Italian red, TS-63 Nato black, and Tamiya Fine Primer grey for the back of the legs was used for this valk. TS-13 Clear then TS-79 Semi Clear was the clears. These Can Sprays seam pretty scratch resistant to me but that's just my own opinion. The only place that was giving me a hard time was the pitot tubes as for some reason the paints didn't want to stick on. Maybe it's a different type of plastic used. I think I should've used some fine sandpaper first to give it some bite. The 001s, red triangles, intake warnings and tail emblems were waterslide decals. The rest was sprayed using vinyl stencils or taped off.

I forgot to mention that the pic was from Arcadia's blog right after WonderFest. I thought people knew about as it was brought up before ( or am I imagining that part?). Edit: Found it in here. We'll see if it's the same as Hasegawa's or their own spin.

I think they'll official unveil it at the Super Space time Ochestra 9/17. All I know is it's gonna be a VF-1J.
-
I thought it's the way to open the missile hatches? Your version is better though. Barely enough room:

I think the clear piece also helps take off stress from the front pivot part of the wing. It looks like if the wingtips could fold a little more at a vertical angle, it could go on it's gears with the ghost's bottom wings folded all the way. Some places I hope hold are the pivots for the ghosts and the pegs as it seems the ghost tend to pop out on me. They fit under the wing.

Got the supers in. To me, you can leave out the clears if you're gonna leave it displayed in fighter on a stand and not touch it. If your gonna swoosh it around, I'd use the clear parts just for the extra support.

It's the regular version. The premium version will have Japanese writing usually on the lower left stating tampo printing even though it's the same picture. Regular: Premium:

http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/44581-prime-1-studio-non-scale-vf-1/ This thread is most likely gonna get deleted or merged to there. Anything with R ***tech should go in the Anime Science Fiction section.

I know a guy that knows a guy lol...send a PM for an email request to be put on the updates list.
-
Coming Soon per Arcadia.
-
Hahaha! Shame on me. I should know better lol. I'm more surprised on the lack of announcements for any of the SV-262s.
-
Whatever that one is called is the one I want. Love that Black/blue mix.
-
Happy Birthday to my bro Chuck! It's time to Pah-tay!
-
Hayate's reaper version, Plus Arad's VF-31A or just include in his sticker with the regular Kairos.
-
I'd laugh and cry if they release all 4 versions left only to do something like movie (renewal) versions after. Maybe something small like the movie versions would have clear tinted cockpits and recessed crystals or something.
-
None yet although BiginJapan shipped their order out on the 20th.

Super Dimension Convention October 28, 2017

Is that stuff in Latin on the form supposed to be there? Pretty interesting translation in Google Translate. Wish I could go, I'd gladly volunteer all day if needed. -
Glad it worked out for you. Thanks to your 3d modeling you gave us stuff that we could only dream of too. So far, you're the only one that I know that has the VF-0B in this scheme. As for pics, I have some but need to get it on the computer first. Here is one (I'll add more in the toys section later) wish I had a carrier deck:

Here is the blog after WF2017 Summer translated via Google Translate stating the PF content not yet confirmed. Note the pics on the wall which is the ones shown on the PF entry.

Should be doable. The tricky part is the booster clip to the pivoting wing clip. Wow. Just noticed it's been almost a year to the day since you wished for this.

I pay JP yen vs USD. To get an estimate, try using a currency calculator to convert the NY local currency price to yen. If it's higher than NY's JPY rate use yen to pay. Here are estimates for the yen equivalent from NY using the rates on google currency converter right now (actual rates will vary) along with the local currency rate equivalent if paid in JP yen: US Dollar: 612.80 = 66877.66 yen Yen: 61280 yen = USD 561.45, EUR 475.96, GBP 439.16, CHF 542.41 Euro: 520,88 = 67109.38 yen Britsh Pound: 477.98 = 66682.98 yen Swiss Franc: 594 = 67141.40 yen

None of us knows the durability/quality of the glow paint and tampo used on this one yet so its anyone's guess. Cut off for the PF is Sept 7 4pm Japan time.
