Thanks. I then started to use a Yamato Stand to create a different approach.

Very nice.

So who thought Ozma was going to die the first time you saw this episode?

The VF-19 was one of Yamato's best releases. 

Love your clear in-focus shots!

It's been more than 10 years since I watched Frontier series - I had no idea of the significance of Frontier then so went in totally blind. It quickly became apparent in early episodes that it was a big homage to the original Macross, so naturally thought Ozma would die like Roy did in one of the episodes lol.

Yup! I swallowed that bait the 1st time through, hook, line and sinker!

And then episode 20 hits, and you realize it was all an elaborate ruse to make you lower your guard.

Always gotta admire the elaborate yet beautiful color scheme of the SV-262Hs.. Meanwhile, still waiting for the SV-262Ba, Bandai!

Re-process old Battroid pic to be in line with Fighter..

The good thing is the covers are clear enough to show off the inner details quite well. I was always questioning the purpose of Yamato's version which have enough opacity to obscure the details underneath.

Yammie / Arcadia's Fire Valk have pretty perfect proportions in Battroid. Mine has been in storage since the day I got it, so I'll live vicariously through others' pics. Nice!

 

 

You might want to take it out and check the biceps. I opened this just to play with it and discovered both arms with damage at the double joint.

I was able to repair them but it was disappointing to discover this. 

You might want to check.

Pretty details. I still don’t understand why Bandai decided not to do this in the first place.

Is Jolly Roger Roundel still swappable?

Bandai should have went a step further than what Yamato had done by also providing a swappable cover to show the internals of the beam cannon and arm armor...guess we'l have to wait for the Mechanic "Plus" Edition for the 50th...

Yes, they are swappable...

Yikes, seems quite a few cases being reported recently. Sorry to hear this, but good to hear they can be repaired. I'll prolly leave mine in Fighter forever.

I'd like to see a side by side with the Yamato version. I never owned the clear parts.

Never had Yammie clear parts either. Did toy with idea of getting Valkyrie Factory's parts, but they are also similarly too opaque so was never motivated enough to get it.

 

Meanwhile, let's have a look at the 1/60 Hikaru Strike Valkyrie Semi-Mechanics Edition

Although poor Kakizaki never got to finish his steak, I hope everyone has a good Thanksgiving and gets to eat as much turkey (or whatever else) you want! 🦃

Making a rib roast for later today.

Here’s a vid of one I did two years ago (ignore the caveman grunts):

 

And another “chicken walker” mode to keep us slightly on topic 😅:

Can't remember my Kaki had the rainbow canopy, but your excellent detailing and posing are very magnificent as always!

I set the wings to high-speed mode for this shot, accentuating the YF-19's silhouette.
