good thing i went through "all that procedure" on my 1J last Jan. when the first report of a 1J w/ a cracked hinge was posted... now i won't have to worry about ordering replacement parts from Overdrive (which, BTW, is pretty difficult these days) and paying 8-10 bucks for a puny replacement part...

massive collection MM... i bet your glass supplier is a very happy man ... your display is getting bigger and bigger! hope you don't mind that i borrowed your 3 x VF-1S "Mondrian" pic... couldn't resist...

Thanks guys! yeah, i think i'm sorta getting the hang of it, coz now i don't need to take too many shots ... only had 2-3 bad shots when i was doing the chase sequence... ...if i were any good at photoshopping i'd remove the stands and put in some flying bullets and some smoke trails...

these look like Maverick's pics???

while you're thinking... EDIT - that was fast!... though i would have preferred Asuka w/ her short yellow skirt sitting on the gundam... w/ the nosebleed!!!! ...here's the last of the YF-19 & YF-21 pics.

"Ha! your shield will do you no good, for i have fixed, non-cracking arms!" on par w/ the 3-on-1 set-up! + points for not having to use a flexy... you're on a roll... MORE!

thanks... @ruskii... get that damn mac-aus-con over and done with already! ... so you can start posting pics again of your cool and daring valk poses...

another nice one! --------------------------- OCD kicked in and i took another stab at the YF-19... still say that the 1/60 YF-21 is better looking and more photogenic...

YAY! COOL! although the 1S looks like he's overcompensating w/ all his weaponry! that is one awesome fight set-up!!! esp. how the 11B is all over the face of the PG... AWESOME! (though i have to say that Max looks like he's looking for some head lice! ) ----------------- a couple of pics of my YF-19... not really happy w/ them... definitely not as "photogenic" as it's YF-21 counterpart... forgot Isamu - w/ Isamu -

nice comparison pic!!! what's that platform they're on??? (gas stove?)

it's in the Anime or Sci-fi section... http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=28729

let us know how it is when you get it...

+1 on the music section thread for transcribed Macross songs/instrumentals etc (i think there is already a music thread for discussing what type of music people like)... its been a long long long time since i played an instrument or transcribed a song i liked that i heard on the radio or something. it would be interesting for me to see some tabs or chords or even some written down romanized Macross lyrics (not in subtitle format)...

so far, we've had a Trance Valk (the avatar i mentioned) and a Perfect Trance... if you'd photoshop one of your valks to replace the DJ, then that would be the Perfect Trance Valk!

thanks! nice to have a li'l fun sometimes and at the same time learn something new... ------------------- on topic... here's a couple of firing squad pics (sorry for the messy background, still looking for a "nice quiet spot"...)

lol, cropduster "in disguise" off to kill some insecticons...

This thread reminded me of another MWer's avatar w/ the dancing Max 1A... now that could also be considered a Trance* valk... * Trance - style of electronic dance music.

i haven't got mine yet, but from the pics i've seen i have to agree... esp. hate the violet/purple they used... you forgot Marina Ann Hantzis... oh, btw, i like em both, old and new... the boxart...

wicked cool pic!

LOL... seriously, i had to look that up ... poor Kakizaki, another reason why his greeny valk can't join the group... i know why you liked that shot (see circled part in pic)

finally, somebody else who can see the value in doing preventive measures... although... 30secs. to 1min. was all i needed to soak the hinge in oil. also, if it does get a little loose due to sanding down too much of the knurling, you could just put a dab of super glue in the area where the knurling part used to be... since the pin was fastened to the plastic via the knurling in the first place.

just some quick shots of my FP-less Max 1S before i'm off... w/ Hikaru and Roy. and a crappy foolin' around pic, lol

COOL! ... bit pricey for me, but w/ all the gimmicks + the stand, i am very tempted. wonder how many will buy multiples of this to display in diff. configurations...

i've been wondering about this for a while now... how much do stores/distributors sell these limited items for? can't they sell them at the same price as what's on the website?... or is it that they don't get their usual "wholesale" price since the quantities are limited? what i've noticed for the limited 1/48s is that stores sell them +100-ish USD more than the website price...
