Saburo Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 @no3ljm, that would be pretty cool. But only sold through Starbucks in Japan... @Valkyrie Driver, great additions so your collection!
McFly!! Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 Thanks McFly! Hahaha! Lucky Me! Yup, already tried that one and it was so tasty. Hehehe. Tipid-tipid. Yup, Plasti-Dip. So that I will not ruin the original color of the valk just in case I want to return it to the original color. Reason why is I love Hikaru's color scheme. And most of the hero valks I have has that scheme. VF-1A/S, YF-19, VF-25F, VF-171Ex. I bought Ozma's 25S, hoping that I could replace the yellow stripes with red. And the quickest way to do it for now is use plasti-dip. But I haven't tried it yet so maybe one of these days. Same thing with the upcoming VF-0S if ever. Bwahaha! Lucky Me is still one of my guilty pleasures! XD Cool plasti-dip hack! A VF-0S in Hikaru's colours would be awesome (what canon?!?)!!! Congrats! Imagine if that were sold in Starbucks. Instead of the Skull logo in the heat shield it will have the Starbucks logo. Congrats Saburo! Hahaha! That would be a great niche product! Gundam and 7-11 have a lot of similar releases. Better than their audio CDs...

Don't worry McFly. We, Pinoys were made with those stuff. Hahaha! Yeah, I just hope I won't mess it up. Actually, I'm scared of doing it or even trying it. Worst case scenario is I might use the magic of Photoshop everytime I post pictures. Hehehe. With the other 'special products' that Bandai's doing, I would love to see Arcadia's 1/60th take on VF-1S Minmay Guard. And not a rainbow version of VF-1J.
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 i just got a ghost booster today inthe mail for the upcoming 0a/s
abbadon Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Cool pickups guys! Now that I've paid for the VF-0D it's time to enjoy some Lucky Me Chilimansi pancit canton. 😄
xrentonx Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 I really wish I picked up the other scheme for the Ghost booster. I only got the one.
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) I really wish I picked up the other scheme for the Ghost booster. I only got the one. are you looking for just the QF-2000D-A or searching for another B? not sure if it's a good price but i pm you where i got it. Edited February 27, 2015 by davidwhangchoi
Valkyrie Driver Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Number 2 out of the big order. Here it is next to my other recent, The SV-51 dwarfs the YF-19, and as far as the 19 goes, I'm pretty happy. I'm glad I never ended up getting that 1/72, even though it would have been nice to have as an "evolution" piece for my collection. I think I might just say that with a few exceptions, I collect 1/60's. (Couple Toynami 1/100 VF-1's and a VF-19S hi metal). The only disappointment with the YF-19, is no provision for underwing stores, but I hear Kurisama has some fixes for that...
no3Ljm Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 i just got a ghost booster today inthe mail for the upcoming 0a/s Even though I decided not to get it, I still ordered a B model out of impulse. There's no looking back. Cool pickups guys! Now that I've paid for the VF-0D it's time to enjoy some Lucky Me Chilimansi pancit canton. Nom nom nom. Tsalap. Number 2 out of the big order. *snip* Congrats on your YF-19.
spanner Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 scored all these wonderful goodies in a trade deal with ScreamMan! Yui Takamura standing in the back ground was already mine..

Btw, you are going to be THE "World's Best Dad", if you're going to adopt all of us here. Hahaha! congrats no3ljm! i think Erik Elvis did the same as us Hahaha! Thanks davidwhangchoi! I just stumbled that one 2 weeks ago and I can't decide at first. But when I look again on those new VF-0S pix, I couldn't resist, so I took the plunge and worry about the payments later. Hehehe. Probably, I'm the last guy who nabbed the one with the $122 price tag.
spanner Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Congrats spanner76! Love the 25/Roy. Was it F or S? Sorry, I can't tell from the picture. Sorry. Btw, you are going to be THE "World's Best Dad", if you're going to adopt all of us here. Hahaha! its a VF-25F Alto..
lancalot Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 (edited) So jealous of the nora sv51 spanner76....man what did you trade to get all that !!??? great to see that you got Gamlin vf22 that hasn't yellowed !! lol and that 25roy all weathered up look great Edited February 28, 2015 by lancalot
spanner Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 So jealous of the nora sv51 spanner76....man what did you trade to get all that !!??? great to see that you got Gamlin vf22 that hasn't yellowed !! lol and that 25roy all weathered up look great hehe! yeah its pretty much perfect condition! nothing yellowed, discolored or broken at all! The 25 Skull/Roy looks cool eh! I paid for his Zero-D pre-order and he gave me this stuff. So yeah we both got a win + win!
spanner Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Wow! That's HUGE! they are just MASSIVE eh! still cant get over the size of these bloody things.. dwarfs the VF-22 by comparison! and here's some GBP love!
Valkyrie Driver Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Y'all are making me want more VF-1's. I now want the VF-1J GBP, and a 1J Max and Milia, and I'll need a 1A (My TRU v1 broke a couple weeks ago, so now it's relegated to the box... ). At which point I'll have all of the Characters from Skull Sqdn... And that's not including the Max and Milia VF-22S's that I want, as well as the Q-Raus (I like Q-Raus, and I want some of the enemy mecha).
Valkyrie addict Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Finally gave this fellow a shot to see what's all the hype about.
Valkyrie Driver Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Congrats on your YF-19. Thanks. Well worth it IMO.
Viiof Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Finally gave this fellow a shot to see what's all the hype about. Love my YF-30. Grats on the purchase.
xrentonx Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 hehe! yeah it is! looks pretty cool eh! Both the 171 and the Skull 25 are going to my son for his collection. There goes that "worlds best dad" thing agaI' Yeah! It's Roy colors and I'm a fan of all things Roy
McFly!! Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 hehe! yeah its pretty much perfect condition! nothing yellowed, discolored or broken at all! The 25 Skull/Roy looks cool eh! I paid for his Zero-D pre-order and he gave me this stuff. So yeah we both got a win + win! That's a great deal, man! Good karma! =) ScreamMan did a fantastic job with the Roy custom! Any wip pics or tutorial, by any chance? Not that I have the skills to pull something like that off yet, just curious... XD
ChaoticYeti Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Ditto on the Roy 25. Nice pick up, Spanner. Nice work ScreamMan!
spanner Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 ok here are some pics! it has been brush painted on but I really like that as it gives it a real "out in the field" weathered look! Along with his other Skull repaints that we've seen already, Scream Man is pretty good at this! Im not keeping this 25 for myself though.. this is going to my son.
Valkyrie Driver Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 So, I'm considering doing some paint customization on my valks. Shading the panel lines, and adding some weatheirng. Any suggestions
Valkyrie Driver Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 Is that Roy custom VF-25F a v1 DX Chogokin? Or is it a renewal?
ChaoticYeti Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 Is that Roy custom VF-25F a v1 DX Chogokin? Or is it a renewal? Looks like a renewal to me. Look at the landing gear.
