Draykov Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 (edited) I always just kinda took it for granted that the pilots included in the later release Yamato 1/60 Valks wouldn't fit in the original release (Hikaru 1A, Max 1A, CF 1A), but not too long ago I took the backseater from my 1D and plopped him into my CF. He fits just fine (at least for display purposes...he might shake around a bit if I were to "swoosh" his CF). Edited December 19, 2003 by Draykov Quote
EXO Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 Yup, I believe it was Toonz that first stated this. In fact some people got some recasts of the two seater plits to put in their older 1/60s a while back. Quote
Hiriyu Posted December 20, 2003 Posted December 20, 2003 Yup, done that. My 1/60 1-D pilots are currently manning a 1-S and a 1-A CF. The canopies seem to keep them in place very well, no rattling around. You are correct in that the later 'Super' model pilot figures will not fit without hobbling them a little. Anyone have or know where some extra 2-seater pilots may be found? Quote
mechaninac Posted December 20, 2003 Posted December 20, 2003 Anyone have or know where some extra 2-seater pilots may be found? Ditto. I'd be up to buying about 4 of the TV style pilots and a couple of DYRL cockpit stuffers...original or recasts. Is anyone doing recasts of any of them at the moment? Quote
ewilen Posted December 21, 2003 Posted December 21, 2003 (edited) I could go for a TV-style pilot as well, to replace the DYRL-style pilot in my Hikaru 1J. Edited December 21, 2003 by ewilen Quote
Anubis Posted December 21, 2003 Posted December 21, 2003 Since my Hikaru 1J is in Battroid, I think I'll use him inside my CF that I have in Gerwalk right now. Thanks for the tip. By the same token, a VF-11FP pilot will also fit in a YF-19/VF-19A. I tried that too. Quote
Hiriyu Posted December 21, 2003 Posted December 21, 2003 Since my Hikaru 1J is in Battroid, I think I'll use him inside my CF that I have in Gerwalk right now. Thanks for the tip. AFAIK, he won't fit without cutting down his legs a little. Again, anyone have leads on recast/extra TV pilots? Quote
Uxi Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 I'm interested in recasts too... anyone? TV uniforms would be great! Quote
EXO Posted December 23, 2003 Posted December 23, 2003 (edited) I think I still got some at home. PM me you locations I'll send it within the U.S for now and maybe I can get some more later for everyone else. EDIT: All gone! If you didn't get a PM... then I ran out before you sent it.
