the new re-arranged set-up w/ the Action Base stands look good... haven't gotten the new cab you were planning to get? Kaki TV 1A looks good.... 'grats! you finally have your Vermilion Squad... i was actually having second thoughts about getting a Kaki 1A for myself when i got yours... now you've inspired me to take a pic of my 1/60 VF-1's as well...

i saw this pic posted on toysdaily and put a smile on my face.

but if you could wait a little longer, you could hold off for re-issues that will have the not so new and improved crotch attachment mechanism. so far only the VE-1 and VT-1 have been shown to have this. EDIT - added link - http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=30292 but i think you're too itchy to get a new valk to get over your v.1 1/60.

just get the ones after the VF-1D and you're fine...

cool! post some more pics of your collection... where's the Vermilion squad?! yeah, share the knowledge, man. ...will i need to buy a tablet for this lesson?

wow! you've got 3 x YF-21s and your own personal airstrip!!! new challenger wins!.... but seriously, awesome job on that pic.

thanks. well, it's supposed to be an artsy-fartsy silhouette shot ... or we could do Cent's suggestion and take a pic of the valk on a bed or something, magic wand it and then slap it on a background pic of the sky/space or something.

to be totally honest, i actually followed eugimon's advise and used the super fast shutter speed setting... i was just joshing around about 'shopping it...

lol... don't group me yet w/ those guys... i don't have enough dough to get the kind of gear they're sporting... maybe in a couple of years i'll think about getting a dandy DSLR, when i'm sure i can pay for my kids' schooling... i'm w/ you on this...

i'm not really any good at photoshopping, but here's a try...

trying out a silhouette shot...

its worth is all up to you... depends on how much you appreciate it being a part of your collection. different people have different tastes after all. however, some food for thought... the cheapest ver.2 VF-1 w/ SSP i found on sale was a VF-1A Hikaru w/ SSP for only 80-85 USD (of course it has the shoulder issue). and the cheapest ver.1 w/ SSP i last saw a couple of months ago was selling for 50-60 USD. it's still your call in the end... as long as you're happy and contented w/ your purchase, that's all that matters.

ROFLMFAO!!!!!!!!

better = helluva lot more expensive = less/no valkyries

thanks... oh master of lighting ... but seriously, i really appreciate the comments. i actually forgot to flip the blinds for the Shin only shot to get that harsh sunlight effect .

well, it's a 2nd hand 5D for less than half the original price after all...

thanks guys! it stopped raining by the time i took it. playing around some more...

some new collection pics... Mac0 Mac+

you catch up pretty quick, man! and in bunches too!!! thanks, vegas! don't worry, i bet you're gonna catch up eventually after you recover from getting you new and envy-worthy cam...

real amazing work mav! i was waiting for the pics last night (kaso nakatulog na ako, lol )... amazing!

nice upskirt shot (w/o the skirt)...heeheehee...

quick crappy night shot of my newest valk. only displayed, never transfomed for only 167USD ... funny thing about this valk is that i found out that this was originally part of maverick's MISB collection, when i asked him if it was a good deal or not, lol ... now it has a new, permanent home ... i'll take better pics tom during the day...
