Shaorin Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 (edited) Here's mine, along with the lovely Minmay. that's either a heavily micronized VF-1J, or a modestly Macronized Lynn Minmay... Edited November 24, 2011 by Shaorin Quote
myk Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 I love this little guy. I couldn't find Minmay so I borrowed other talent from the anime girl agency: Quote
Luclin999 Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 My latest acquisition and now favorite piece in the collection. Quote
myk Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 Ho My latest acquisition and now favorite piece in the collection. How much did you pay for the Bandai 'Strike? Back in the day I paid $1400 for one when things were out of control... Quote
Reïvaj Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 $1400???!!! Bloody hell, dude, and we are complaining about current prices! Quote
valid Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 (edited) $1400???!!! Bloody hell, dude, and we are complaining about current prices! hahahha the price of toys it just like the tulips market in europe back in the old days (watch the wall street if you don't understand ) Edited November 30, 2011 by valid Quote
Felix Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 Been a long time since I posted here...out of the loop sort of thing....anyway, I love that after being off of the Macross radar for so long I can come back here and see a good old fashioned joke machine posted up as someone's favorite toy...warms the cockles of my almost 40 year old heart....

jorawar_b Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 wish they would have made the other two versions Quote
connor99 Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 My latest acquisition and now favorite piece in the collection. Damn, that thing is an absolute beaut! Here's hoping that someday it will get a re-issue . Quote
treatment Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 wish they would have made the other two versions uhhh, dude. don't think those are Macross toys. Quote
spanner Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 thought I'd revive a dormant thread.. just because I can! and now back to the original topic.. so for me my all time fav has to be Hikaru's VF-1J presented to you by Miss Macross herself.. Lynn Minmay! Quote

Lynn Minmay! VF-1J nice! I have to hunt down one of those too. Until I can get a VF-1S + Strike parts in my collection the VF-25S + Armored parts is my favorite, or they'd be tied for 1st place. Edited July 13, 2014 by Saburo Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 ^Nice! I'll post some pics once the Tornado Parts come in for the 25F. -b. Quote
abbadon Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 That is absolutely badass Saburo! As much as I love the VF-1J as well, for my favorite I would have to go with the VF-19 Kai. Because, Basara. Lol! (Yeah I'm a big M7 fan!) Quote

Until I can get a VF-1S + Strike parts in my collection the VF-25S + Armored parts is my favorite, or they'd be tied for 1st place. Dude your photos are works of art! Just looks sooo sexy! I have saved them all to my hdd! hope you don't mind! The armored Ozma still is my fav Frontier Valk next to the Brera's 27y.. Hmmm maybe now just a little ahead of the Lucifer thanks to the armor parts! And I like how you have the chest missile launcher bay doors opening outwards also! I think it looks much better this way and doesn't obstruct the view of the head unit! But my Hikaru VF-1J was one of my earlier purchases when I started collecting again after selling of my old v1 VF-1 Valks years earlier.. The 'J' was an expensive little sucker too! at nearly $500 (aussie) MISB delivered! my VF-1J MPT was similarly priced.. actually more expensive if I remember correctly..

I can't wait get the Tornado Parts, I have F and G just waiting for their Tornado Pack upgrades. That is absolutely badass Saburo!

Thank you for the compliments spanner. I don't mind if you saved them, I am glad you enjoy them. The VF-27γ is my favorite from the series but favorite toy is the VF-25S. Yep, I switched out the chest missile bay doors, it also helps with taking photos because doors don't obstruct the view of the head. I didn't get into collecting Valks until about a year ago so I am a late to the game. I did had a couple 1/55 Valks as a kid, but were a lost in a fire. I hope to get a 1/60 VF-1J one day, but first is a 1/60 VF-1S. Quote

I hope to get a 1/60 VF-1J one day, but first is a 1/60 VF-1S. I am currently using the top photo as my Samsung Note 3 wallpaper! works perfectly with the dark background! Its funny you mention how you lost your 1/55's in unfortunate circumstances! During the late 80's in our (old old old) house we were robbed, we lost a whole bunch of stuff! all our tv's, video players, hi-fi system, cordless phones, money, jewelry.. etc etc even a few rugs & food! they almost completely cleaned us out! it was during the day and funny enough none of the neighbors saw anything.. they would have needed a truck to take it all! so anyways among other things that were taken were my own 1/55 Valks that I had on display in my bedroom at the time were also taken! The only one that wasn't taken (of which I still have to this day) was a Transformers Skyfire version which I never kept on display as I didn't really like it so much.. 1/48 low viz That looks crazy!! I haven't ever seen that parts set before! and the mini style guns look cool too! very nice! are they original issue or from something else? Edited July 13, 2014 by spanner76 Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 1/48 low viz Ah yes, and the 1/48 Thunder Hummer kit. Very, very nice. *snip* That looks crazy!! I haven't ever seen that parts set before! and the mini style guns look cool too! very nice! are they original issue or from something else? Those are from a custom kit that a few (or one) members here made for both 1/48 and 1/60th scale VF-1's. Jorawar B, EXO or a few other members can fill in the blanks (too lazy to look up the original threads right now). -b. Quote

It seems a bit strange that no one saw aanything. Quote
Mog Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 Just one, huh? I guess I'll go with the bastard on the right, pulling off an Immelmann turn: Quote
spanner Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 Just one, huh? I guess I'll go with the bastard on the right, pulling off an Immelmann turn: goowaahhh!!! that VF-1 with Super Strike parts looks boss!!! Quote
Saburo Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 Just one, huh? I guess I'll go with the bastard on the right, pulling off an Immelmann turn: I love the color schemes on these! Quote
no3Ljm Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 These two for me. Only to realize that this one shows Hikaru's 1A instead of the 1S. Hehehe. Either or, both Hikaru's DYRL Valks looks the same except for the head but atleast it compliments Isamu's 19's head lasers on this photo. Quote
KH355hamdi Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 The Konig Monster. I wish it was 1/60 scale. Quote
