wow, props to the G-man for taking the high road and for even replying to the "insane guy's" post...
and yeah, i too wish they'd make the VFX2 and Milia's VF-11 and sell them cheaper w/out the FPs...
LOL, sorry 'bout that ...
but seriously, i didn't really have enough time to do any other poses (i didn't even notice the fins on the left foot were messed up)... but i'm pretty sure it can pull off better poses...
that's cool! your collection has come full circle...
EDIT - also want to share another addition to my collection... posted this in the anime section...
click
Bandai Action Base Stand 1 clear to be exact.
and yes, i shake my cabs every now and again to make sure everything is stable and nothing falls down or off their respective stands/platform... you can ask ruskii, it's an art form .
@ernanbot - thanks, pre...
you're absolutely gonna love it! was gonna put this off for next year, but i've never been so happy to have caved in... absolutely gorgeous, stunning... i'm speechless, can't stop staring, can't stop fiddling...
hahaha! believe me, i tried my best... but i don't regret it, this one's a real beauty... can't stop staring at it while scenes from DYRL flash in my head, lol!
LMK kung gusto mo ng VE or VT...
just some quick pics of my newly arrived VT-1 (late, i know!) on display in my preferred mode...
love it ... near perfect qc as far as i can tell and i'm sooooo glad after getting a few Bandai items w/ the standard scratch and paint chip here and there.
that space on the right is reserved for the VE-1
just got my VT-1... just looking at it from the box's window it looks super awesome... love the color... will play with it now.
just the VE-1 to go and i'm done w/ DYRL? valks...
just soak the part where the pin is w/ some oil... i tried it once w/out oil and it was so much harder to push it out... w/ oil it took me less than a minute to push out the knurled part, then i pulled out the rest w/ pliers... then i filed the knurling...
also, filing the knurling for cracked hinges may be ideal before gluing the cracked hinge...
looks cool... but the VF-11 just doesn't have the same effect as the VF-1 for me to go ahead and get multiples... if these were priced the same as the 1/60 VF-1 ver. 2 w/ FPs (w/c is just about the same size), i might consider getting a red Milia variant...
on another note, it's nice to see all these M7 valks coming out... i am very eager to see Yamato make Gamlin's VF-17D.
sad to hear...
it's possible to push the pin out w/out breaking it or having it crack... did it on one hinge that already had stress marks and micro cracks on the top part... still hasn't cracked all the way since 8 months ago even w/ repeated transforming and posing...
great first look pics as always ff95...
it's still a bit too bluish-gray for me, so i'll pass... love Focker valks too but i'll be saving the money for the TV ver. Focker 1S... hey Yamato, hurry up!
