I think I'll cheat then and scratch/bash some dedicated cannon pods [as in ones that don't transform into a rifle] Ala the early Phantoms retrofit solution...

........ if the missile pods can sling under the body alongside a single GAU, why couldn't it mount two GAUs inboard of the engines? I shall have to investigate when Wave releases their 1/72 kit...

or were you specifically referring to the toy itself not being able to?

I think he was referring to the toy itself.

Might squeeze them in those slots with the leg flaps. I'll try when I go home tomorrow.

With a little scratchbuilding or blutac maybe?

and didn't realize the gunpod on the Fighter mode WAS centerline mounted:

those are indeed brilliant but I am way to frightened to actually attempt fitting them to even my Arcadia example! :o:wacko::unsure: so for me this won't ever happen.. -_-

That's ok, Spanner. Atleast you know there's some workaround if ever you want to go crazy customizing it. ;)

I might order the VF-4C/S/K head from Kurisama soon. ^_^

yeah I don't mind Kurisama's alternate VF-4 head but again im a rather hesitant doing any mods to the VF-4's..

what I might do is buy the VF-1X++ head for the VF-1S kit (which still hasn't arrived.. <_< hoping today) that is if I decide to keep it! ;):lol:

Ooh. That VF-1X++ looks sexy crazy too. ;)

Are you going to make it as a 'freebie' too when you decided on selling that 1S kit? :lol:

Posted

Hehe! You've seen how much those 1X++ head units cost right!?!? ;)

Yes. Esp if you choose FUD. But it's cool though. It's more detailed I guess. Just need a little bit of sanding only. ;)

Remember that episode when Hikaru went ape-sheit crazy on the Zentradi on a giant motorcycle? That was the best episode!

Today was "Strike a Pose" Sunday for me. Having just received my HMR Hikaru Strike Valk, I decided to do some quick and dirty posing with a mish-mash of other items. Some are in scale, most aren't though, so that game me a chance to play with perspective. Obviously, the canonicity of these shots, much like flashbacks in Delta, is, umm, interesting.

Hmmm... interesting. But would that bluetac cause problems with the plastic

I'm just go right out there and say it "Woo-hoooh ride-em cowboy" Just where did you get the Zentreadi figure from and what scale is it?

Three against one? They think this will even the odds against the likes of Max, they're still screwed.

Anyone have a VF-1S with two CFs in 1/48 or V2 1/60s to set up a scene like this one?
