Arthurius Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 dude, that is the best work i have ever seen in my life, those little lights and yellow and white straps, and all the rest of the brilliant detailing make this the best toy i have ever seen. Just one thing, i dont know how to download these pics onto my computer to have them as my background or just look at them over and over. Is there a way? Quote

When you click one of the pics to view, just click the Save button/link below the bottom right of the picture. Quote
vf_1s Posted December 30, 2010 Author Posted December 30, 2010 Thanks again guys! BTW, just lined and lightly weathered my 1/3000 SDF-1 in HK. Will do some side by side comparison with the 1/2000 when I get home... Quote
Vermillion One Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 I look forward to seeing the comparison, but I am afraid that the 1/3000 will not compare. Your 1/2000 is the nicest SDF I have ever seen. Quote
BlueMax Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 I look forward to the comparison as well! Quote
VF-18S Hornet Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 What!!! You got your 1/3000 already, I'm about to send off payment for mine at Ami Ami. Quote

vf_1s Posted January 8, 2011 Author Posted January 8, 2011 (edited) Hi all: Quite a few people have questioned on how to take apart the 1/3000 SDF-1 toy to get access to the city, so that they can repaint it. The 1/3000 SDF-1 toy is actually assemble together the same as the 1/2000 SDF-1 prototype. Therefore, I have taken pictures of the construction manual, and added it to the "1/2000 SDF-1 Customised" thread as another reference. Hope it helps. Edited January 8, 2011 by vf_1s Quote

You wouldn't happen to have a Fortress Maximus or Brave Max would you? I would love to see a size comparison between those two. Quote

I would love to see a size comparison between those two. I agree. This is going to be something I am sure many who own this toy are going to want to do. Thanks for helping us out! Quote

I would've broken some pieces without this. Time to use reverse tech on mine! Quote
kyekye Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 This might be asking too much, but since you started it Can you scan the rest of assembly manual as well if you have time? It will be greatly appreciated.. Seeing the leg assembly telling me it's not as simple as I thought for the rest of body. Quote
Tking22 Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 Yea people shouldn't have to do all that to get to the city, it should have come painted or at least came detachable...... Quote
Zentrandude Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 insanely amazing. really put how much room for people to live and work in that ship. Makes me wonder about the rest of her... ummm spaces... Quote

It will be greatly appreciated.. Seeing the leg assembly telling me it's not as simple as I thought for the rest of body. I'm almost done with separating parts for paint job, but I'm stuck at the thigh with knee joints. It will be great if you can tell me the order of the thigh/knee assembly. (backward or forward - doesn't matter) I can't figure out if the thigh front cover comes off first, or knee cover. Basically I'd like to separate the Leg frame from dark blur parts. Thanks in advance! Quote

It was said that the 1/2000 scale version don't have knee articulation so the construction is a little bit different from 1/3000 scale. Quote

Feel free to add to my thread if you want. Quote
kyekye Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Hey Keykey - why don't you post pictures for us of your disassembly process? Feel free to add to my thread if you want. Oh hi, I'm kinda doing it here My camera isn't that good (compare to these days standards, that is) and I didn't take step by step pics (too many parts) - so i got lazy and took photos only after I'm done with each area. I'll add the photo of the area I'm having trouble with now. Quote
Chewie Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 That looks absolutely phenomenal. Great work. Quote

I'll add the photo of the area I'm having trouble with now. Oh I found a web page showing all parts and assembly instruction of 1/2000 SDF-1 here. The page is in Japanese, but it doesn't really matter. It appears that the Thigh parts came in pre-assembled... But it still shows the parts assembly for the Thigh. Quote

Mine got delivered a little late and I took a couple of days getting familiar with transformation and moving parts. Even though I separated head/bridge without damage, I decided to add magnet so that I can remove the head during transformation. So I ended up drilling hole on the head anyways Quote
