David Hingtgen Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 What about vinyl stickers in the silhouette of valks? HG would be lawyering you in a second if you used the UNS kite logo, but like an overhead-view YF-19 silhouette is fine. (while a company can trademark a plane's whole 3D shape, they cannot claim its mere silhouette) Quote
Golden Arms Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Yeti, Do you have adapters for the Yamato VF-17? Don't recall ever seeing any. Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted March 30, 2015 Author Posted March 30, 2015 The stand adapters that come with the Yamato 1/60 VF-17 are compatible with YetiStand. You would just need either of these adapters to go along with a YetiStand order to work with the VF-17: YA Banking Adapter YA Standing Adapter Quote

(while a company can trademark a plane's whole 3D shape, they cannot claim its mere silhouette) This could be easily done, but for what purpose? To put on the stands, or for general use? What size? I have a vendor for vinyl stickers now, so I suppose if there was demand I would be willing to draw them up. Edit: Fairly effortless. If people want this sort of thing, I can offer it. Maybe as a separate group buy. Edited March 30, 2015 by ChaoticYeti Quote

ChaoticYeti Posted March 30, 2015 Author Posted March 30, 2015 Fairly small, than? I could do that. Does anyone else want to chime in on interest for this? Quote
Golden Arms Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 (edited) Hello Yeti, I was thinking of something similar to David. Have you thought about Acrylic or plastic nameplates? I was thinking of something similar to the ones that were included with the 30th Anniversary VF-1J. On the nameplate, you could then affix stickers with the toys name and maybe even David's silhouette. Those would look pretty classy in front of the stands. Edited March 30, 2015 by Golden Arms Quote

Is his face copyrighted? Edited March 30, 2015 by SuperSenpai Quote
Golden Arms Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 We don't just a thought. A silhouette of any Valkyrie would look pretty cool. Quote
anime52k8 Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Why do we have to use David's silhouette? Is his face copyrighted? who wouldn't want David's face in their collection. Quote
SuperSenpai Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 We don't just a thought. A silhouette of any Valkyrie would look pretty cool. It was joke... "David's silhouette" sounded like "a silhouette of David" not "David's idea to use a silhouette of a valk". Quote
Jefuemon Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 We need to get this guy a Yeti Stand, STAT! Has anyone tried a set-up like this yet? Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted April 2, 2015 Author Posted April 2, 2015 For those of you who may have experienced difficulty ordering on the webstore recently, this was why. https://blog.bigcartel.com/2015/03/31/downtime-we-were-attacked/ Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted April 14, 2015 Author Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) I am moving! I'd like to off load some of my current stock before I do so. Between now and May 15th use "THEYETIMOVES" at checkout to get 15% off of your ENTIRE order! Edited April 14, 2015 by ChaoticYeti Quote
SuperSenpai Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 Will the YF-29 adapter work with the VF-25? Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted April 14, 2015 Author Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) Unfortunately, no. I periodically flip over the renewal 25's and see what I can muster up. The 29 has a nice gap between the calves and the arms were my adapter can slot in. The renewal 25 has a really sleek belly. I am open to suggestions. I have an adapter for v1 25's, for those that display them. Edited April 14, 2015 by ChaoticYeti Quote
derex3592 Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 So here's tonight's fun...yes, I'm cheating on the side 2 because I don't have enough adapters, but you get the idea. That back arm with Ozma is about at it's tight limit and not to happy, but it seems to be holding after another careful tightning up....and no, it won't fit in any display case..but it looks cool!

EXO Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 You can find it here. I think Max can get behind these dental floss G-Strings... Honestly, if I didn't stock up on the original flight pose stands I'd be getting these. It's especially a great deal when you can display 3 valks on one base. Maybe I'll get one of those stickers soon to show some support! Quote

I have an adapter for v1 25's, for those that display them. Does this mean that the DX Banking Adapter and Standing Adapter won't work with the Renewal VF-25 Valks? Also, what are the dimensions of the bases (length from side to side and point to point?). Quote
wmkjr Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 They will work. You just have to use the stock adapters that came with the valk. Yeti made the YF-29 adapter to cut the clutter from the stock adapters plus they can be held upside down.☺ Quote
Goobermunch Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Thank you. I was worried. Do you have a sense for how wide the bases are? I've got a mantle and I don't want my Valks to fall off. Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted April 18, 2015 Author Posted April 18, 2015 6" side to side: 7" point to point: Quote
David Hingtgen Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 And since they're hexagons, they intermesh nicely in neat patterns. Quote
w8kbrder Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 (edited) Yeti- Any chance you could post a few pics of the underneath/bottom side to show where these are mounting? Edited April 20, 2015 by w8kbrder Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted April 20, 2015 Author Posted April 20, 2015 Each mounting is Valk specific. You either use one of the banking/standing adapters with an adapter the Valk came with, or one of the replacements I made. Let me know which ones you have questions about and I will snap pictures. If need be I can make a gif as well. Quote

The YF-19 fighter adapter clips on like this, and than attaches to a banking/standing adapter: The YF-21 battroid adapter clips onto the crouch as shown here, and than attaches to a banking/standing adapter: Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted April 25, 2015 Author Posted April 25, 2015 Can anyone see a reason why this wouldn't work with a 1/60 GBP? Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Can you slide the fast packs bracket between your adapter and the backplate of the valk? If you can, then I see no reason why it wouldn' work. Quote
