I just picked up a 1/72 Repptu VF-11 battroid on ebay for $150. Is this a good price? any input on the kit. just curious, so i thought I'd ask the experts.

out of curiousity, does anyone have a finished picture of this kit? how does it look built?

$100 is my limit on that kit... especially when you can get the Wave kit 1/100 scale for about $40. just my opinion though.

That's a bit pricy for the Retppu kit.

I've got two of the Retppu 1/72 VF-11C battroid kits and I paid about US$100 for the first and US$65 for the second (got lucky and found it in a sale).

You didn't mention whether you bought the VF-11B (Mac Plus) or VF-11C (Mac 7) version. The VF-11B tends to be a bit harder to find and thus sells for slightly more the the VF-11C.

Anyway, they are nice kits IMO. Good detail and proportions. Very back heavy with the FAST Pack boosters attached though.

It's the VF-11C. I guess it's a little steep, but oh well. For some reason, i want all my valks to be in the same scale. i would have prefered 1/48, but with the Hase offerings 1/72 won by default.

Its a nice kit to be sure...be happy you have it and don't worry about the price.

[Sweet-1]

It does look like a nice kit. And as far as the price...It's a VF-11, that's all I care about.

PS does anyone want to buy a pair of n!@s, my wife'll probably cut mine off when this one arrives. She just doesn't understand...Its a VF-11.
