I can attest to the quality of this kit. Here is my build up from the last sale.

I'm tempted to get another one too if you do make them.

I'm interested, sign me up!

[talon1138]

I'd be interested. I'll probably take two.

[Hikuro]

I'm in. I'd probably buy 2.

[Model-Junkie]

I'll pick up another one if you re-release it. Are you willing to include 2 vacuum form canopies like last time?

[Zubique]

i'm in!

[Ahab]

great! I'd be in for one. . Is this your sculpt?

[Hikuro]

I think it's from an actual kit from back in the early 90's. Even as a recast it's a great collectors item. I bought one from Valk009 3 years ago, but it alas did not survive the move I made during that time. Not too mention it was my first resin kit and I had no clue what I was doing and screwed most of it up.

I don't think the lineage is 'that simple' - I think parts of it were resculpted.

It's a good kit. Here's mine: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=23639&st=35

[thegunny]

I'll have one too thanks.

I remember that one. Didn't realize you made that one too. Love the faded blue and other custom markings.... very unique. Love your models Petar

The kit's overall dimension and most parts assembly was based off an original Musasiya made VF-4 kit! It was then modified by first panel lining nearly all parts, a completely new nosecone sculpt, new pilot, new landing gears etc.

Will be heading over to the caster tomorrow to see how busy his schedule is, if the minimum quota of 10 interested parties is reached and my casting friend is free, work on the new mold can commence!

[Hikuro]

looking forward to good news.

[Valk009]

Production of the kit got the green lights!

Once the new mold is complete I will PM each interested member for further instructions.

[talon1138]

Awesome!

[coronadlux]

Sign me up for 2.

[Spitfire_BR]

So here we go again ! But this time let's try to really receive the model ! ( nothing wrong with Valk's delivery, just the f*#@%ing brazilian postal service how disappear with my VF-4, damm you !!! ) I'm in for one !

[sierra-ii7]

Add me in for 2 )

Can you do any other Resins?

Thanks

[coronadlux]

So, when can we start sending the payments? or a deposit to give you peace of mind in the number?

[Valk009]

_{Latest updates!}

_{Finished placing all the parts on sprues and ready to make the new silicone mold this coming weekend, once done I should be ready to slowly pull kits out and commence on the payment! Do not want to accept payment as of yet as you never know with any possible delays, have to juggle time work/family/casting etc.}

[Hikuro]

Not in any rush my friend, I want a nice completed and fantastic cast.

[sierra-ii7]

Can you add another 1 for me, thanks

[talon1138]

Payment sent. Can't wait.

[Cesar Enrique]

Hey!! just saw this thread. Still space for a new order?

[Valk009]

Yep, still have quotas for few kits!

Latest update: Have a handful of kits pulled from the mold but still need to make the vacuum formed canopy (will provide two for each kit, just in case you mess one up!) and waterslide decals.

[coronadlux]

Awesome. 2 canopies should come in handy. One open and one closed. Thanks for doing this.

[Ahab]

Money sent!

[Hikuro]

Sorry I hadn't had time to respond Valk, I'll get ya paid in October hopefully. I'm having some financial problems right now due to girlfriend goign to the hospital and finding out her mother took her off her insurance plan, 500 bucks doesn't come easy : /

[Valk009]

Hi Hikuro, no problem, kit is not yet ready for shipping anyways as I have been more occupied with my day job lately, though I will still try and get it ready for shipping by mid this month!

[coronadlux]

Thanks for keeping us updated. I sometimes forget that we do have lives and sometimes things take a back seat. You'll get them done, don't feel pressured or rushed.

[scratchawan learner]

I've been looking for one of these for AGES...that had the right look, and wasn't exhorbitant in price. Just tell me how you want to do business Valk09. Paypal work well for you? Please send me info on where to send the money, etc... to rogueprince65@yahoo.com Your work comes highly recommended from other members of the SSM forums. Thanks... Scratch

[scratchawan learner]

Seventy Seven dollars sent your way, via Paypal, just a few moments ago, Andy. I will email you, the shipping address. I'm looking forward to building this one...and I may even purchase another. This looks like an incredible bargain. If your kit is as good as the buildups I've seen on here...? You may be one of the most talented resin casters I've ever met. Check your email... ;-) and your paypal account.

Anticipatorily, Scratch

[Valk009]

First batch ready to ship out this weekend, apologies for the long delay but finally got everything (well almost, just waiting for the decals) done.

Tomake it easy on me and not having to reply each individual, I will just change the status on the threads ordering list from "PAID" to "SHIPPED" with the relevant tracking number.
