dodiano Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 Well I am the Proud owner of a very nice condition USS FLAGG which I intend to make a Prometheus and a display stand for my Valks!! Here are the pics of the purchase!! Quote
Saburo Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 That is awesome! As a kid my friend had one, I was in awe of it. Time to land some Valks on it. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 ??? there's already a thread for this Quote
dodiano Posted September 24, 2014 Author Posted September 24, 2014 Just let me get it down to my Home country... Moving it is not going to be easy!! That deck is huge... Another thread about this where?? Just bought the damn thing yesterday?? Quote
wmkjr Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) He means there is a thread about recent purchases. Which includes non Macross items. A couple threads down. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=40095 Edited September 24, 2014 by wmkjr Quote
dodiano Posted September 24, 2014 Author Posted September 24, 2014 Oh oops! Guess that would have been the place... SORRY! Either way very Happy with the New PROMETHEUS... Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 Oh oops! Guess that would have been the place... SORRY! Either way very Happy with the New PROMETHEUS... yeah, i was talking about that thread. nice carrier anyways, gimme some sky strikers as well as macross!!! Quote
dodiano Posted September 24, 2014 Author Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) We where talking with my kids yesterday after I bought this... And it is a long shot but I will love to take out the actual building structure (sorry don't know how to call it) and make a scale 1/60 Prometheus Type building structure and place it there instead! There is so much space for the 1/60's.... but I have to say the Skystriker is so cool!!! Might get me one! LOL! Edited September 24, 2014 by dodiano Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 but I have to say the Skystriker is so cool!!! Might get me one! LOL! if you do, please post more pictures! Quote
dodiano Posted September 24, 2014 Author Posted September 24, 2014 Totally will do! And sorry for the double post!! Dying to get that Aircraft Carrier! Quote
Saburo Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 You wouldn't happen to have a Cobra Terror Drome in your collection? I thought that was the coolest of base sets from G.I. Joe. Quote
Bahamutzyro Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 Well I am the Proud owner of a very nice condition USS FLAGG which I intend to make a Prometheus and a display stand for my Valks!! Here are the pics of the purchase!! that is awesome. brings back some great memories! Quote
Bahamutzyro Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 Just received these 2 guys. got capt harlock from ami ami for 195.00 and python armor iron man from sideshow. Quote
dodiano Posted September 24, 2014 Author Posted September 24, 2014 You wouldn't happen to have a Cobra Terror Drome in your collection? I thought that was the coolest of base sets from G.I. Joe. Actually this is my one and only GIJOE collectible bud... I have to be honest.... There is a double morale here LOL... I love GIJOE toys I think vehicles are great and the action figures, but as a good friend of mine says "stay focus" ... I have the flagg and I have been looking into the terror dome which I think is the second greatest playset for the Joes... After that is going to be the space shuttle, then another playset.... LOL ! And no money for the VF-1D I want and the pair of M&M ... So the double Morale here is that the Fagg will serve as my Prometheus the perfect excuse LOL! I love these amazing Joes playsets but Id rather invest my money on Macross. Terror dome is so cool!!! (drools) LOL Quote
Falcon18 Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 Wow. That thing is huge. How issit like relative to the 1/60? Can't wait to see you turn it into a Prometheus. Quote
aceoftherebellion Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 Agreed! I want to see this thing covered in valkyries! Quote
dodiano Posted September 25, 2014 Author Posted September 25, 2014 Well found this pic not long ago. I think scale wise looks pretty good to me . Quote
Repiv_Onex Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 I swear to god I have this very same toy 20+ years ago! Where do you get it? What's the name or brand of the toy? Quote
no3Ljm Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 @dodiano That's a cool USS Flag toy. Good thing it's in good condition too. Prometheus indeed. @Repiv_Onex That's from Hasbro G.I.Joe USS Flagg. Released in 1985. http://www.amazon.com/FLAGG-AIRCRAFT-CARRIER-HASBRO-COMPLETE/dp/B008FHN4LM Quote
glane21 Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) How about the new Jetfire. It can seat 2 1/60 pilots and we all know how it is intertwined with Macross. Edited September 26, 2014 by glane21 Quote

Falcon18 Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 Well found this pic not long ago. I think scale wise looks pretty good to me . Nice.. Means you can fit alot there. Coolness. Quote
dodiano Posted September 28, 2014 Author Posted September 28, 2014 I have thought of several Upgrades I might implement to the USS FLAGG (PROMETHEUS) I need 1/60 support vehicles for starters and Crew.... Any ideas? Quote
McFly!! Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 I have thought of several Upgrades I might implement to the USS FLAGG (PROMETHEUS) I need 1/60 support vehicles for starters and Crew.... Any ideas? I seem to remember seeing a post about EXO making these? Quote
CoreyD Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 MW user Kurisama has some awesome gunpod loading carriages available on shapeways too! http://www.shapeways.com/model/784300/gunpod-cart-valkyrie-gu-11.html?materialId=62 http://www.shapeways.com/model/784295/gunpod-cart-fenix-gpu-9.html?materialId=62 Quote
dodiano Posted September 29, 2014 Author Posted September 29, 2014 Not bad !! Could be a good start! Quote

I have got to order at least one of those! Quote
CoreyD Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 You can kind of see a painted version of the Kurisama gunpod carriage in the photo below. They're really top notch. Quote
dodiano Posted September 30, 2014 Author Posted September 30, 2014 Man I love how you have hanged that Elintseeker! Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 It's a shame companies don't make toys like that anymore. I seem to recall a lot of toys being ginormous back in the 80's. Can you guys imagine a toy company releasing something that big today? Still, even as big as that is, it's not even close to 1/60 scale (not that it's in any real scale). If the Flagg is based on a Nimitz-class carrier, then at 1/60 scale, it would be over 18 ft long. Hehe. Anyway, still a good display piece to put your valks on. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 You can kind of see a painted version of the Kurisama gunpod carriage in the photo below. They're really top notch. the color of your low viz missiles are incorrect. did you lose your set of low viz colors? Quote
CoreyD Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Nah, I didn't lose them. I just thought the white ones looked better as a contrast to the rest of the valk. Quote
dodiano Posted October 1, 2014 Author Posted October 1, 2014 Hey guys just got the FLAGG It is hugeee... Man I did not realize how big this playset is... Now for the tough part... Fly it home Lol Quote
