is that VF-1J Hikaru a Hi-Metal R release?  It looks variable....or am I missing something. That VF-19A does not lool variable though.

Twich

Yup. 

VF-1J is the HM-R version. 

VF-19A is the old GN-U Dou.

Wish I had bought more of the GN-U Dou line.

I like the flashback version more.

I finally have a display worth displaying!

Great display! Clean and easy to view.

[505thAirborne]

Awesome collection @LORDRANCID77. The Old Yamato 1/48 may not be as poseable as the new DX Valk but still looks damn good IMO. 

I definitely like this pic cause I own all 3 as well.

Looks awesome! 

[LORDRANCID77]

Beautiful!

[sh9000]

Updated.  I’ll keep the VF-4G in this shelf.

Most of Macross' historical Valkyrie progression in just one formation. What else could you possibly want. This is why Macross valks are so much fun. 3 modes, several armors and set ups. It never gets old to me.

 

Great pictures everyone. Interesting sideways display there Lordrancid. Also, Saburo's and Kuma-style's photo work, should be in magazines.

We learn through mistakes. Just keep at it, and soon, you'll see results.

I see you big boy! Is that the matchbox version???

[sh9000]

Very nice pic @vlenhoff.

[VF-18S Hornet]

Most definitely is.

I am 99% certain it is. I'll check soon, but i don't have any of the accessorizes for it.

Yeah, I also think it is matchbox, but i might be wrong. I'll check soon...

[vlenhoff]

Well, not sure if it is the matchbox, but it says Bandai underneath. I bought it at a collectible store out of the box like 17 years ago. This poor thing has been with me for nearly two decades now.

and to go back on topic, a dark mood pic of some of my HMR

Matchbox licensed the SDF-1from Bandai, after they acquired the Takatoko molds. So yeah that is a Matchbox by way of Bandai SDF-1. I Still have mine for three decades.

^ That's what it was! Thanks for the info! (this may sound cheesy, but that Bandai logo always made me happy, when i spotted it in a toy, back then)(Like Jetfire, etc.)

You are lucky! I had to grow old, grow a beard, and then i was able to find one at a reasonable-ish price. It's radar array is hanging on one side, partly broken, but it reminds me of that episode when they go dark. I was going to fix it, but I never got to it. This is how i got it back then, and i am just grateful I have it at all.

I know this is a pretty simple toy, but it has the spirit of the Macross, and that's enough for me. Every once in a while i think about weathering it, but i have not made my mind up yet.

Yeah those radar antenna and side antenna are not durable I forgotten how many times I had to glue it in place. Gorilla glue works better than crazy glue.

I know, I'm showing of. But since we're on the subject of the Matchbox SDF-1 and I just scored a really sweet one yesterday I thought I would post pics. This dude is completely custom painted. There are no decals/stickers ion it. That's all paint!

That’s not showing off, it would be a travesty if you didn’t share. Beautiful pick up. Congrats!

Looking good!  It's one of my favorite pieces along with the DYRL SDF-1 PF Arcadia.

Damnit. And now I need one.  Make it happen @sqidd!

[jeniusornome]

Man. I miss mine. Had one since I was little. It got some breaks and scratches over the years, two of the cannons on the shoulders broke off, the main cannons snapped and were repaired more times than I can count. 
 

around ten years ago we had an earthquake. Smallish and very uncommon for where I live. But itwas close enough for things to shake a bit. When I got home from work that day figures that had been perched on the top of shelves were on the floor in pieces, including the sdf-1. 
 

So I appreciate seeing some in such good condition!

[derex3592]

I now have a new found hatred for you @sqidd. GREAT addition!!! I had mine since childhood but sadly about a year ago both his arms snapped off moving him out of my display case. Plastic had just gotten to brittle over time.
