---

Runner up: 1/60 VF-11B (if I had a VF-11C, it would probably be #4

Some days I would put the VF-27 Brera in place of the YF-21 at #5, which used to be my bar-none favorite valk but I'm not as fond of the color scheme as the Gamlin. I'm sure if the Gamlin had never come out, the YF-21 FP would still be my favorite.

[boyarque]

My order of the day ( until something better comes along... ):

1. 1/48 VF-1J Super Stealth

2. 1/60 VF-11B

3. 1/60 VF-0S

4. 1/48 VF-1A Low Vis 1.0

5. 1/48 customised VF-1S Roy Focker

( I'm hoping the 1/3000 SDF-1 will make the cut. )

[shuji]

my best list

1/48 super stealth with ss

1/48 low visibility

1/60 vf-1s roy focker

1/60 vf0s/a

1/60 vf-1a Kakizaki

[ff95gj]

1/48 VF-1S Roy Focker <= this marks the day I get back to toys, oh of course also it is a great toy

1/60 VF-1S Roy Rocker TV version <= for how long we don't have a TV 1S?

1/60 VF-1J M&M

I can't really rank the others. I love the Skull squad and Vermillion Squad as a whole, not individually. Both for 1/48 and 1/60 scales.

[Graham]

Hmm...........that's a tough one, there's so many great Macross toys to choose from.

And how to define top 5? Top best looking toys? Top most played with toys? Or other criteria?

Anyway, as with most people, my list is variable and ever-changing, so ask me next week or next month and it might be completely diferent.

1) 1/65 Scale Bandai DX VF-17D/S. They may not be the most accurate, beautiful or poseable toys, but they are super easy to transform, built like a tank -probably the most durable transforming VF toy ever made (I've never heard of one breaking). I've got about 10 of these which I've had since 1995 and they have been used and greatly abused and are still in fantastic shape.

2) 1/60 scale Yamato VF-11B/C. A near-perfect representation of the VF-11 in toy form. Durable, easy to transform and looks stunning.

3) 1/250 Scale Bandai Macross Fighter Collection - Affordable mini-Valks in so many flavours, that look great - you can't go wrong.

4) 1/60 scale Yamato VF-22S series - Max,Milia & Gamilin. Absolutely stunning toys, especially in fighter mode.

5) 1/60 scale Yamato VF-1 V2 series (I can't chose a favorite, they're all so good.

Which is why I can't wait for the yamato vf-17...one day. (my wallet can though )

I don't care if basara was a superhero with newtype-like dodging skills, gamlin had the cooler looking robot by miles!

that's a cool pic. See this is why I think if brera stern had a scheme similar to ivanov his valk would be much cooler. If you are going to hide in the shadows, stalking little girl, and snipe people from long range, a black robot is more appropriate imo. Black valk is also more smybolic of some kind of a death knight. Grace (version 2 sharon apple lol) should have had the pink one, and Brera with a black one. The grunts get the greens.
