Pontus Posted July 20, 2021 Posted July 20, 2021 Just got my Roy finally and recently picked up the RPG Tactics game purely for the minis so that I can display them with the SDF-1 in the ep1 scene. Also got a fan racer from @Xigfrid Shapeways store. Now I just need a stand mic. I figured since I'm missing a few key pieces from my collection, they could be filled nicely with available minis from this set and kids logic.

MKT Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 Some stuff arrived recently: Always wanted a great Airwolf model, & aftermarket prices of this Aoshima 1/48 is mostly kinda crazy. But managed to find one for a price I thought was quite reasonable. The 1/60 Zentraedi uniform is a KO from Taobao. The quality of stitching & cloth material is pretty good, and colors appear similar to pics of the original. There are some key differences when comparing to @jenius review of original. The zipper head is different, there is no hole in cap to thread Max's head laser through in battroid, and the logo on the cap has way off proportions. But NBD, I plan to display in gerwalk mode, so the cap will be unused. Whilst waiting for the VF-1 of the month to arrive (Chogokin VF-1D), this Yamato 1/48 VF-1S 25th Anniversary still makes for a formidable display. Snagged this off YAJ for only Yen 5500, advertised as junk. From what I can tell, it only has a bent, half-snapped head laser, which is easily fixable. Of all the different VF-1 toys of any scale, I think the Yamato 1/48s have the best landing gear detail..

A bent head laser is not a big deal, especially for that price.
derex3592 Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 @MKT - Friendly warning on the Airwolf model/toy - My electric motor died less than a year after I got it and I maybe turned it on like 10 times, also beware of the door hinges on the cockpit, they are verrrry fragile. One of mine is "sprung" and doesn't close all the way now. I also had to put a tiny drop of CA glue on the tail rotor to keep it from coming off. Just FYI.
borgified Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 @MKT - I very highly doubt that Bandai will make this paint scheme for their DXes. Good grab nevertheless on the 25th 1/48 Yammie 1s deemed as "Junk" for 5.5k yen.
MKT Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 Thanks for the heads up @derex3592. I got it as BIB item, the doors look properly shut, but I guess I'm never opening them now. Motor's already dead, which I hear is par for most of the used examples out there. At moment I'm struggling to keep it standing with the landing gears down; it keeps wanting to tip over backwards, even with the weight of batteries in its compartment to counterbalance the front.. Can't wait to set it up with the rest of 80's vehicle heroes. @borgified Yeahh these old 1/48 Yammies non-canon scheme still have great life to them. They make great complementary pieces to the new Bandais..
Slave IV Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 What a great deal on that Yammy, nice! I love the 1/48 Yammies, especially the non-canon ones.

SoLoBoY Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 I tried to tell myself I wouldn’t buy anything outside my preorders for the rest of the year but I couldn’t pass on all these goodies I stumbled upon this past week…
