Saburo Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) Thanks guys! The background is actually my workout mat. Now that I own one, I really wish the VF-11B & C weren't so bloody expensive or I'd multiples! I thought it was a sheet of carbon fiber. Edited January 26, 2015 by Saburo Quote
DWN013 Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Apologies for the phone camera, but ever since I saw this configuration, I've wanted to do it, and I've never seen anyone post it on here... It's the red, white, and blue! Episode 14 special!! With a black gunpod. Because why would anyone want a lavender gunpod? Quote
spanner Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Yeah the darker gun pod color looks a lot better eh! And im honna have to re-watch Frontier as i totally cant remember Alto using Michaels super parts! Looks very cool though! Quote
abbadon Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 That's cool DWN013! I remember that episode. I think it was after the Galia 4 incident, wasn't it? Quote
Scyla Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 I like the lavender gun-pod. Why does Ozma come with a blck one? Quote
chyll2 Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Yeah the darker gun pod color looks a lot better eh! And im honna have to re-watch Frontier as i totally cant remember Alto using Michaels super parts! Looks very cool though! I remember that scene, he did equip Michael super together with Fold booster that was lying around in SPACE Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 (edited) That is a mean group of kids. Good thing they have a chaperone. And gunmetal is better than purple. Edited February 1, 2015 by ChaoticYeti Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 nice squad! don't like purple guns? Quote

Man those kids get the cool stuff. nice squad! don't like purple guns? I like the purple guns, but I like the gunmetal ones even more. The purple gunpods were given to the CF pilots.

xrentonx Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 I got three Ozmas and three CFs so I can totally do the gunmetal thing too! The non-lavender gunpods are much better by far so screw canon Nice pics, Saburo Quote

Give the lavender gunpods to the CF pilots. A few more pics: Edited February 2, 2015 by Saburo Quote
spanner Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Armor parts look so bad ass! Great pics as always Saburo! Quote
Saburo Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Armor parts look so bad ass! Great pics as always Saburo! I agree, they are pretty badass but a pain to display them in battroid mode with out support. Superb! I like. Thank you no3ljm! Quote
DWN013 Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Saburo I must ask, you painted ozma's armor black right? Doesn't it come in gray like altos? Either way amazing shots!! Quote
abbadon Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Awesome shots, Saburo! Makes me want to complete my Skull Squadron as well. Total rockstars they are! Quote

Thanks DWN013, and no I did not paint Ozma's armor. It comes molded in a dark blue/grey color. Awesome shots, Saburo! Makes me want to complete my Skull Squadron as well. Total rockstars they are! Thank you. They are awesome. I wanted the 25G with Tornado Parts but the wings are too large to fit in my Detolf with another Valk. Edited February 2, 2015 by Saburo Quote
Xigfrid Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Thank you. They are awesome. I wanted the 25G with Tornado Parts but the wings are too large to fit in my Detolf with another Valk. I made the 25F in fighter with tornado and the VF-27 in battroid. The 25F is on a flightpose stand though, I am pretty sure a small arm yeti stand could do the same Quote
VF-18S Hornet Posted February 2, 2015 Author Posted February 2, 2015 Man I wish I could have afforded them as well as had space for them when these reissues came out, still stuck with the V.1 Ozma that I boxed to make room for the VF-17S Quote

The 25F is on a flightpose stand though, I am pretty sure a small arm yeti stand could do the same I have a 25G Tornado and 26G Super displayed in fighter mode on a yetistand and it fits nicely on a detolf shelf. When I tried 25G Tornado and a 25F armored in battroid mode, there was no room to display both nicely on a detolf shelf. Quote

Scyla Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 *snip* Thank you. They are awesome. I wanted the 25G with Tornado Parts but the wings are too large to fit in my Detolf with another Valk. I have the same problem with my VF-25G so I removed the engine nacelles and stored them behind the Valkyrie. I think the design would have benefited from a rotation to move them out of the way. Instead the Tornado Messiah is just to wide for his own good. Quote

There's just too much flexing for me to feel safe leaving them on. I had to settle for Super parts and the Tornado cannons for my G in Battroid and an in-atmosphere bare Gerwalk with the cannons attached for my Alto. Edited February 2, 2015 by Mommar Quote

I have checked on it a few times and its holding up well. Edited February 3, 2015 by Saburo Quote
The Old Man Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) I have a 25A with Alto's tornado parts on its bandai stand (lower orientation) plus a 171cf bare on its bandai stand (higher orientation). They just about fit together on a shelf in the detolf. Can't post a pic as I'm miles away from my babies. Apparently I'm a liar lol! Bottom right. Edited February 3, 2015 by The Old Man Quote
moustik747 Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 Damn, I can't put my hand on a UCS Slave I yet !!! Soon, Soon ... Patience, I will have Quote
The Old Man Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) Thanks, yeah it's really cool and was a fun build. Shame I couldn't get the Tumbler on there aswell. Regarding how the Tornado wings are holding up, I think the fix that Saburo posted is a great help in keeping the wings from flexing. Thanks again for that mate. Edited February 3, 2015 by The Old Man Quote
Xigfrid Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) Saburo's fix for Tornado is magical, I must thank you for it too I could get the Armored 25s together with the 25F "Atmosphere version" Tornado (I much prefer this version compared to the complete version). Anyway, if you get the 25F much higher, I am pretty sure you can have the Full Tornado to fit into the space. Sorry for the bad quality, phone and dark room doesn't go well together Edited February 3, 2015 by Xigfrid Quote

Glad it the fix is working well for you, mine are still holding up.

IMG_6295.JPG IMG_6296.JPG Sorry for the bad quality, phone and dark room doesn't go well together Glad to help with the Tornado fix. Ah that works, I was trying to get both the Tornado and Armored to fit in Battroid mode. Here's the current setup. Quote
