eriku Posted May 29, 2008 Posted May 29, 2008 I'm planning on doing a head transplant on my 1/48 Angel Birds Yammie when I get it. I haven't decided between J or S yet, but I'm wondering which color head to order (from Silver Dragon) to best match the plastic. I've only seen the Angel Birds in pics and it appears to be a very stark white. Would it be best to go for the "white for customizing" head or the "valk white" head? I'm even considering putting a blue Max head on it but I'm not sure how the colors would match up. I'd like to avoid painting because I've seen elephants do better work with a brush than what I'm capable of. Quote

Ruskii has a AB with a 1S head on it if I remember correctly. Maybe he will chime in and confirm. Quote
eriku Posted May 29, 2008 Author Posted May 29, 2008 Yeah, I remember seeing a few pics of a 1S AB but I couldn't remember where. Looked very nice. Quote
eriku Posted May 29, 2008 Author Posted May 29, 2008 (edited) Ah yes, I forgot he had the clear armor on there, too. I might have to straight up copy that. Now I just need to A: Get my freakin AB from HLJ already and B: figure out which head to get! Edited May 29, 2008 by eriku Quote

Now I just need to A: Get my freakin AB from HLJ already and B: figure out which head to get! It is a VERY cool look! I'm certain that Ruskii will chime in at some point today. He is in Aus. so he may just be waking up. We'll see. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted May 29, 2008 Posted May 29, 2008 (edited) lol hang on i'll see what i can drag up. yes, the 1S head kicks the 1A heads ass (that's logical thinkin der). In fact i'll be grabbing an extra 1S head just for the Angel from Silverdragon once my friend is ready to combine our order... Edited May 29, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted May 29, 2008 Posted May 29, 2008 (edited) Found it! http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?show...26&hl=Final The head was from my Hikky 1S, you'll see the 1A Hikky as prof. (only got '2' Hikky 1S) Edited May 29, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote

(only got '2' Hikky 1S) Coolio! I wanted to see all those pics again. THANKS! There ya go eriku....the white color seems fine with that....and the VF-1S Hikky is "valk white" I gather. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 (edited) Looks similar valk white to me. http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?show...26&hl=Final Edited May 30, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote
eriku Posted May 30, 2008 Author Posted May 30, 2008 Awesome pics, ruskii, thanks for posting those again! I'll probably go for the "valk white" head. Question: Do Silver Dragons heads come with the clear eye pieces? If so, is it possible to get blue? I'm also assuming the lasers need to be painted. Quote

I'm also assuming the lasers need to be painted. See there....I was wondering the same thing. I was going to ask him next time he PMed me but I think I may just PM him anyways. Let me know if you find out anything and I will let you know as well. Quote

PM him man, i can't remember but think you can buy green, blue, red, and maybe yellow, but deffinently clear. Edited May 30, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote
Alex Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 Sigh. With a valk designed to look like a school girl, you might as well pop a Barbie head on it. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=25947 You would be correct my friend. I don't think these were designed to be cycled to battroid, just for airshows to impress the public! Quote
eriku Posted May 30, 2008 Author Posted May 30, 2008 (edited) Ha, I never noticed the school girl resemblance before. Now I'll have to track down a 1/6 scale Sakura (from Street Fighter) head to put on it. Are there any valk hands that are giving the peace sign? Edited May 30, 2008 by eriku Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 (edited) lol, and why wasn't there the 1/48 scale Battroid School Port included! Edited May 30, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote
misterryno Posted May 31, 2008 Posted May 31, 2008 http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=25947 You would be correct my friend. I don't think these were designed to be cycled to battroid, just for airshows to impress the public! THAT'S GREAT! I cannot wait till I get mine. I think I will be putting a 1S head on it to make it even badder! THANKS for the girly pic mate! I love it! Quote
