nightmareB4macross Posted April 18, 2019 Posted April 18, 2019 Can’t get enough of these armors. The detail and individual missiles really make these very impressive display pieces. Quote
Duymon Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 Wow I never thought of swapping the parts to get that look. Looks pretty nice Quote
nightmareB4macross Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 (edited) Thanks, Other than swapping parts, the only thing needed to make this look complete is to paint the arm missiles white on the green armor. Edited April 20, 2019 by nightmareB4macross Added more description. Quote

slide Posted April 21, 2019 Posted April 21, 2019 without having my '1-D in-hand, is the Minmay pose not purposely crafted to depict her being carried in the '1-D's hand? it's not like the VF-1 can actually CARRY her*... work it out with your own hand... she had to use her arms [braced against the hand] to help support her own weight... *Hikaru can't even make the damned thing walk, and he picked up a teenage girl? Yea... SHE is supporting the vast majority of her own weight on that one... if only so Hikaru didn't squish her like a tube of toothpaste... Quote
