Fire in the Sky Posted May 10, 2008 Posted May 10, 2008 Hi all, I'm setting up my Macross display, and wondering which valk to use with the GBP armor. I think Hikaru's VF-IJ is the one I most remember from the TV series using the GBP. BUT, I kinda don't want to use that one and have it all hidden behind the armor. What about using my Hikaru VF-1A? Silly question, I know...thought? Quote

Ignacio Ocamica Posted May 10, 2008 Posted May 10, 2008 Yes, Cannon Fodder or Roy's VF-1S look really cool!! Quote
VFTF1 Posted May 10, 2008 Posted May 10, 2008 I have my 1/48 Roy VF-1S dressed up in GBP. I didn't want to put Hikaru in there either, since I love teh 1J in fighter mode best. VFTF1 Quote

Solscud007 Posted May 11, 2008 Posted May 11, 2008 I didn't want to waste my VF-1j in the armor either, but it's just too classic so I did it. yep I gotta say GBP armor and VF-1J is the best combo. Quote
wvn111 Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 I agree with them! THE CLASSIC LOOK STILL RULE!!! Quote
TCracker Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Errr..I am gonna get the anime ver GBP armour for my 1/48 VF-1J. One thing bothers me tho - Do we have to remove the nosecone of the Valk to fit the GBP armour? Sorry for the noob question, but at least I can sleep well tonight... Quote
eugimon Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Gotta go with the VF-1j... that's the reason I have 2. And no, you don't have to take off the nose cone. The 1/48 armor comes with two different pieces, one long for the nose cone, and smaller/anime accurate one for if you take the nose cone off. Quote
TCracker Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Thanks a bundle eugimon! Looks like I dont have the put the nosecone elsewhere and risk of losing it. :D Quote
misterryno Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Thanks a bundle eugimon! Looks like I dont have the put the nosecone elsewhere and risk of losing it. I don't know though. It's a personal choice but I like the more anime accurate one so you don't have to deal witht he armored penis. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 (edited) Meh you guys and your anime mecha penis phobias. Edited May 12, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote
doodler7 Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Hmm, goog question. I am thinking about my Hikaru VF-1S on the normal GBP armor. I've also acquired the "black/grey" stealth armor. It's as close as I can get to a Bandai Strike Valkyrie look via color scheme from the 1/55 scale version. What do you guys think? Quote
doodler7 Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 (edited) Sorry, my response double posted, and so I modified this version. I'd say stick with the VF-1J...but personally, I'd go VF-1S second. Edited May 12, 2008 by doodler7 Quote

That'll do I bet....I like to see pics though to make my final decision. Quote

MacrossMan Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 (edited) Can never go wrong with a classic! OO Edited May 13, 2008 by MacrossMan Quote
Beware of Blast Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 I don't know though. It's a personal choice but I like the more anime accurate one so you don't have to deal witht he armored penis. Actually, the 1/48 version is not accurate at all. It has no space for leg poseability. The 1/60 has leg room enough for some poses and it at least is well hung. When compared to the 1/60, the 1/48 GBP is a fat guy who's not seen his penis for a very long time. Quote
sidearmsalpha Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 I use the Hikaru VF-1A, it hides the horrible yellowing it has Yeah, I got a set of 1/60 GBP armor just for the yellowed VF-1A Hikaru I have. What a shame. Quote
