VF-Zer0S Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 Yeah I was thinking that I'd need the whole team lol. I'm going for a TV version team. So I'm prob gonna custom paint the sdf-1 to TV colors. I'm a bad painter but it doesn't hurt to try lol. Quote

I'm a bad painter but it doesn't hurt to try lol. That's about the only option for a "TV" version of the SDF-1, my problem with that is the lines on it are all wrong. Even with the correct colors it isn't shaped like the SDFM version. Quote
plastik Posted March 18, 2013 Author Posted March 18, 2013 man I'm having the hardest time finding a vf-1s max. im seriously considering buying an unpainted version and doing it myself Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) I was thinking eBay. I saw one for 120 but idk about shipping Sorry I ment yahoo auctions and it was 200$ w/o shipping. Edited March 18, 2013 by VF-Zer0S Quote
plastik Posted March 18, 2013 Author Posted March 18, 2013 my understanding of the japanese language is non existent but how does one navigate the yahoo.jp auction site? is there a language option somewhere? Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 You could look up FromJapan.jp. They buy stuff for you, from Japan and then mail it to you. They also have a proxy bidding service so you can bid there Quote
Valkyrie Magnus Posted March 19, 2013 Posted March 19, 2013 man I'm having the hardest time finding a vf-1s max. im seriously considering buying an unpainted version and doing it myself Too much work. The easiest way would be to buy an extra VF-1S and change either the yellow or red markings to blue and instant VF-1S Max. I did that with a 1/48 scale Valkyrie. Quote
plastik Posted March 19, 2013 Author Posted March 19, 2013 I've been on a mission to complete my DYRL Skulls and Max has been my white unicorn. I totally agree with you on it being too much work!! I already have Roy and Hikaru and thanks to Mr. VF-Zer0S I've been able to find Max but I don't know if I can convince myself to pay $220 for it, especially since I picked up Roy and Hikaru at $130 shipped each. Getting another VF-1S and repainting it seems to be an easier option. Did you repaint Roy or Hikaru? I'm curious to know which color would the blue cover better. Also which blue did you use and is the Skull on the blast shield a sticker or paint? Thanks guys! Too much work.

Lolicon Posted March 19, 2013 Posted March 19, 2013 All your banter about the VF-1S must've gotten to me, because I just went and bought Hikaru's VF-1S from HKC. Went "out of stock" immediately after I placed my order. Quote
plastik Posted March 20, 2013 Author Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) Does anyone know if the VF-1S Maximilian were only available in version 2 or did Yamato release them in version 1? Nevermind I found the answer. According to the stickied thread it was only released in 2009 as version 2? thanks! http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=29393 Edited March 20, 2013 by plastik Quote

Also which blue did you use and is the Skull on the blast shield a sticker or paint? Thanks guys!I used a Hikaru but then realized it would have been easier with a Focker. I had to do a few extra coats over the red. I then used a extra skull decal on the heat shield. Plus the Max VF-1s has a black heat shield unlike DYRL Max VF-1A which had a blue heat shield( I preferred a blue heat shield) Quote
plastik Posted March 20, 2013 Author Posted March 20, 2013 I caved in and ordered a VF-1S Max from Amazon.jp using Fromjapan.jp. Thanks for the tip VF-Zer0S! Cost me $177 before fees and shipping. Somehow I managed to buy 6 Valkyries in 20 days.... my bank account is in much needed recovery. Quote

Valkyrie Magnus Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Good call with the purchase of VF-1S Max I like my 1/60 a lot. The only reason I painted the VF-1S was because I wanted a 1/48 version too Quote
plastik Posted March 29, 2013 Author Posted March 29, 2013 (edited) VF-1s Maximilian just arrived today! Edited March 29, 2013 by plastik Quote
Mechapilot77 Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 is the dyrl 1s max lighter than the other dyrl valks or is it jus the way the photo looks? way back when i prioritized sdfm over dyrl so inever picked up that max, nor the 1a. the only canon dyrl valks i have are hik's and roy's. Quote
plastik Posted March 29, 2013 Author Posted March 29, 2013 it looks to be the same but I haven't taken it out of the box yet I will post a pic of Roy, Hikaru and Max VF-1Seses side by side when I get home. Quote
dapro Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 I guess i can always swap head with my vf-1a max with my other two vf-1s haha Quote

plastik Posted March 30, 2013 Author Posted March 30, 2013 I didn't put one one max because he never had one on his 1s in dyrl. He did however have one on his 1a in the begining of the movie but I havent decided if I want to pick that one up yet. and if I pick that one up then that would mean id have to pick up hayao....and I really dont wanna pick up hayao Quote

He's not bad and deserves some love too I have the DYRL version and tv. I will get the weathered DYRL version to go with my weathered Max VF-1S. Yes you're right the Max VF-1S didn't have strike packs and so mine doesn't either. Quote
xrentonx Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 (edited) You guys have imaginations so use them That goofball pilot of the VF-1A with the green trim doesn't have to be Kak. For example, in my world, I'M the only goofball who flies that green scheme. ...of course I still get blown the fu_ck up Edited March 30, 2013 by xrentonx Quote
plutoniumhunter Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 Very faithful of you guys! And I'm just gonna toss Strike packs onto the Cavalier and -1S TV version... Quote
