Oh well, I'll have to live vicariously through @Lolicon pics! @Saburo Great shots, every time I tell myself I'm not a big fan of the YF-29's I see your pics... must resist buying a Roy version! Expand Thank you @505thAirborne! Well one day, if you decide to add a YF-29 to your collection, the Roy version is one of the more reasonably priced. Quote
Lolicon Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 Did some minor touch-ups on my DX YF-19. I think that's about as much time and effort I'm willing to put into this particular release. Quote
nathans82 Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 Got super lucky and got a Yamato VF-1S Max Weathering Version from Buyee. It was indicated as being the Weathering Version, but I'll have to confirm once it arrives. So happy to have a VF-1S Max from DYRL in the collection. Quote

jeniusornome Posted May 7, 2020 Posted May 7, 2020 @ScrambledValkyrie what coloring are you talking about? Those are the theee Yamato DYRL skull leaders: drunk guy, hero guy and best pilot guy. Quote

I posted too quickly, thinking I was in the 1/48 DX thread and got the impression Saburo was trying to whet our appetites for the other 1S variants. Quote

Saburo Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 The navy blue with gold accents brings out the Regal design of the Sv-262Hs. Quote
Lolicon Posted May 10, 2020 Posted May 10, 2020 My first time transforming the YF-30 in years. She's definitely a step down from the VF-31 but still a super easy transformation. Wanted to take a pic before I disassemble her. Quote
