pondo Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 what valk would you put on it in fighter mode? All I have so far is: -1/60 v1 vf-1j (fast pack) -1/48 vf-1a cannon fodder -1/60 vf-1s roy (attack pack) either the roy of the cannon fodder. The cannon fodder is bigger, but isn't really an impressive "feature" on the mantle. oh...the woes. ( I have to build the apparatus to hold the valk so I need to decide for the precise measurements) Quote
logos Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 1/60 vf-1s Roy with Strike parts. If I had to pick one of these. I would rather have the this though: Quote

Master Dex Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 The 25 is a pretty bird, but the Bandai DX's are almost not worth it. However that is your choice, I have never seen a DX in person but the stories and reviews are enough for me. I'd love to get a VF-11 though... but it is damn expensive... I'll stick with the 1/60 v2 VF-1S Max as my next and second valk. Quote

Master Dex Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 That's too bad. The vf-25 is the only bird I like as much as the vf-1 I know your pain. The 1/72 models do the 25 good justice, but they are not as tough as the DX or any Yamato birds. Quote
eriku Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 Bandai's DX VF-25 Alto is actually my favorite display piece. It's also usually the first valk I grab when I want one to transform and play with. Worth every penny. My prevailing gripe is the loose groin lock, but apparently it's not a problem on all of them.

logos Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 VT-1 in Gerwalk mode looks pretty sweet to (it's on the middle shelf to the left): Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 If I were to decide to put a Macross item on my mantle and make a stand for it, I probably wouldn't go with a valk. I'd stick a big ole cap ship on the mantle like the upcoming Quarter or 1/2000 scale SDF-1 Macross. Quote
pondo Posted September 24, 2009 Author Posted September 24, 2009 VT-1 in Gerwalk mode looks pretty sweet to (it's on the middle shelf to the left): great shot! I notice that you have some of the clear bandai stands on your upper shelf yamato valks.....do they fit easily? They're soooo much cheaper than those yamato stands Quote

They're soooo much cheaper than those yamato stands Yeah they are the cheap Yamato stands. I had to retrofite them by tightening up one of the joints with plastic cement and they work great now. If you looking for good stands the flex stands sold at Lost and Found Toys are the shiz nit (if you didn't know). Little finicky but they are totally awesome. http://www.laftoys.com/index.php?cPath=15&...789af1e3ea8b1a3 By a three pack with the 3 differant sizes so you can mix and match the legs from the other stands to setup some great posses.

KiriK Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 Logos, that pic looks like a cubicle at work. haha... do you have all your expensive Macross toys lying around int he office? I wouldn't trust mine around the office, especially that high on the shelf, looks scary if they were to fall Quote
