misterryno Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 I might be crazy enough to decal all the "NO STEP" stenciling onto one of these little birds! Now that would be CRAZY Quote
newca Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 What would be there in the series 3? My guess: VE-1 of coz! VF-1D original orange VF-1D M&M's wedding VF-1S Focker without Super pack VF-1S Low vis! VF-1S 25th Anni Only a dream...but if there would be half of them, that'd be cool! Quote
Sundown Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Wow, I wonder what these would look like with a very light panel line wash. The detail is definitely impressive. Quote
jenius Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 I got a box of 10 en route and if i don't get a complete set I'll definitely be looking to trade with people any of my extras. What would be there in the series 3? My guess: VE-1 of coz! VF-1D original orange VF-1D M&M's wedding VF-1S Focker without Super pack VF-1S Low vis! VF-1S 25th Anni Only a dream...but if there would be half of them, that'd be cool! I think the Low Vis as we know it (Yammy LV1) is kind of a proprietary Yamato paint scheme so we couldn't see it here. The 25th Anni scheme would be the Hasegawa version possibly since, if I'm not mistaken, the Minmay Guard is a Hasegawa scheme. Here's my guess: 1) VF-1A Max DYRL 2) VE-1 3) VF-1D 4) VF-1S Roy DYRL (no fast/super) 5) VF-1A Max DYRL Super 6) VF-1J Miria TV Super Special: VF-1A Hayao TV Quote

Valkyrie23 Posted March 1, 2008 Posted March 1, 2008 I just got a box of Series 2 and these things are great. I have an extra DRYL VF-1A Kakizaki (secret) to trade I'm looking for a BLUE VF-1J TV Max if possible Quote
Fly4victory Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 Full Set plus the chase on the first try. I thought I was going to miss out but the last box opened had the Super VF-1S. My extras are numbers 1, 2 and 3 or the VF-1A, VF-1J, and Minmay Guard. Quote
hirohawa Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 Anyone here have a Volume 1 set of seven they want to sell? Quote
jenius Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 I just got a box of Series 2 and these things are great. I have an extra DRYL VF-1A Kakizaki (secret) to trade I'm looking for a BLUE VF-1J TV Max if possible My box, I believe, is due to come in today. I'll PM you if I have an extra Max especially if I get shorted on the Kakizaki. Quote
jenius Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 Just got my box in and I'm pretty thrilled... I was scared for a moment I wouldn't have a complete set. I love how not secret Charaworks "secret" valks are. Here's what I got VF-1S Super Roy x2 VF-1A Super Hik x2 VT-1 x 2 VF-1S Minmei x 1 VF-1A Hik x 1 VF-1A Kak x 1 VF-1J Max x 1 If anyone is looking for one of the extras I've listed (the top three) feel free to PM me! Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 Well guess i got the ones what i wanted most of all thanks to Hiriyu! I got coming - 1x VF-1S Hikaru (Roys) Super 1x VF-1A Hikaru (Non FP) 1x VT-1 1x Minmei Guard Thanks man. Quote
Anavel Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 Just got back from work and opened mine (thanks Hiriyu) decaled it up and took a few pictures. Sorry for the shatty cell phone quality. Quote
Anavel Posted March 8, 2008 Posted March 8, 2008 I also have to add, the decals that came with this thing are pretty crappy. Three already came off, and one is lost forever. Quote
Anavel Posted March 8, 2008 Posted March 8, 2008 nice tripple post going here, but if someone has a set of roy decals, (they don't have to be super as long as they include the 001 for the nose, and un spacy decals for the legs/fast packs), I would greatly appreciate them if you aren't going to use them yourself please send them to me! Thanks. Quote
warpaint22 Posted March 8, 2008 Posted March 8, 2008 How about that the 1/72 Minmay Guard chest decal of Minmay is the same size as the leg decal supplied but looks much better, thinner. It's also not as dark in colour and has a little more detail. So I'd use them if you got em. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 nice little mod i put together thanks to Hiriyu! Love partial FP fighter mode.... Quote
nightmareB4macross Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 Nice pics rF. Wish I could post really nice and up-close pics of some of my stuff. Quote
misterryno Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 Nice pics rF. Wish I could post really nice and up-close pics of some of my stuff. Why can't you mate? BTW...I like your avatar. As always Ruskii........awesome.......I like the PFPs ont he chara. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 Nice pics rF. Wish I could post really nice and up-close pics of some of my stuff. Yes, close up pics of your dual seater. lol Actually i used a special way to take these, the close up function with digi light on my d/camera. More of an experiment but it did come out nice. Quote
miriya Posted March 22, 2008 Posted March 22, 2008 Why can't you mate? BTW...I like your avatar. Because Yamato will steal his ideas! I agree that he deserves what he wants for it. Quote

Chet Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 Just bought Series 2 from a shop here in the Philippines and I didn't realize until later that the set didn't include the secret figure! Unfortunately, I haven't seen these for sale anywhere else locally. Darn! Quote
wm cheng Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 Thanks to this thread, I finally ordered Vol 1 and Vol 2 through HLJ - and they arrived! Luckily I got a complete set from the box of ten of each series... Vol 1 VF-1A Cannon Fodder (x2) VF-1A Showbirds (x2) VF-1A Max Green (secret) VF-1J Hikaru VF-1J Mirya VF-1S Strike Hikaru VF-1S Strike (Fokker) (x2) Vol 2 VT-1 VF-1A (x2) VF-1J Max (x2) VF-1S Mimay (x2) VF-1A Super (Hikaru) VF-1A Kakizaki (secret) VF-1S Super (Fokker) I just wanted to add that I can't believe how amazing these little gems are! I may be crazy, but I think I'm going to take a few of them apart and re-build them as little models, filling and sanding the seams and decaling them up properly (like that guy in HK did a few pages ago). I scanned in the 1/72 scale Hasegawa decals and reduced them 50% to get 1/144 and printed them from a colour laser to clear decal film - we'll see how many "no steps" I get to before I loose my eyesight! I may offer up some of my doubles up after I've tried modifying and taking apart some of these beauties. In the meantime I can offer up my sheet of reduced decal graphics for anyone else who wants to try what I'm doing (just PM me - its a 7Mb e-mail - unless someone wants to host it) Quote

MechTech Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 That's an awesome idea! I just whish they were 1/200 like the new ones will be. I hope they make ALL the valks in the newer 1/200 collection for Yamato! - MT Quote
s001 Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 I'll go for volume 2 but no Roy or Hikaru strikes damn! Quote
Vifam7 Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 (edited) I'll go for volume 2 but no Roy or Hikaru strikes damn! I'll trade you one of my Strikes from Volume 1 for a non-Super in Volume 2. PM me if you're interested. Edited March 24, 2008 by Vifam7 Quote
