Jefuemon Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Technically, it looks nice, but I agree with most everyone else that I'll wait for a nicely detailed, fixed pose 1/72 scale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Rather than moaning that this is not a 1/72 scale non-transforming,fighter mode-only model, you guys should be thankful that we actually have a company like Experten making these cool transforming kits. And besides, there's already somebody else making mon-transforming fighter mode resin VF-171 and RVF-171 garage kits. Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea of what software they use but my level of knowledge of CAD is clearly unsufficient to allow me to do what they have done (I have a B.Eng in mechanical BTW). And even though I like well-detailed 1/72 kits, like most people here, I'll buy one of their kits and build it if I have the opportunity to. Great engineering work Experten, keep it up!

Chronocidal Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 It does look absolutely awesome, but I have to agree about the nose looking a bit.. weird. It's like it's too long and not drooped quite enough. Still beautiful though, and the droop might be a transformation issue. I do like the way they incorporated both the standard and EX version cockpits too, though I think the nose was reshaped more to use the bubble canopy on the EX.. that canopy looked quite a bit narrower than the standard one seen at the beginning of the series. Now they just need to make the extra weapons pack for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I've had experience with Yahoo Japan auctions, living in Japan after all. It's real tough to shop if you're not Japanese (or in Japan), though. That's why I recommend Celga.
