Agreed.

Now that I have all these valks coming, I think I need more Regults.

I started to load up a Detolf today with HMR's Ala you today. Not as easy as it looks! I'm still waiting on a few Valks to show up. Not sure how I'm going to get nine in there!

Yup! it is an exercise in balance, and geometry, lol. Its fun to see them in formation.

Thanks!  I want to fill up a detolf with HMR Valkyries in Fighter mode as well.

 

Congrats.  That’s a good one even on its own or with custom Fast Packs.

Fighter-palooza woohoo!

Here's another one I'm blaming on you all (mostly this thread and all the cool picts) that just showed up at my office.

That's it, you're done. I hope you have enough detolfs.

Seven in.....three more to go!

Inspired by @vlenhoff.  Working on my shelves for HMR as well.  I might put one more in there.

There hasn't been an announcement about that. Please, keep in mind that items tagged "Display Only" not necessarily get released. That's the lesson the Tomahawk gave us.

Cool thanks for this post.  I didn't look at it that way but yeah.  I'll keep checking back

Gah you beat me by one! I like how @sqidd has nearly all fast/strike-packed fighters, and you @sh9000 have all clean fighters, including those VF-19! I also noticed your VE-1 has a gunpod!

The stand looks like parts from the stand that comes with the Glaug. I’ve seen it included with some other Bandai figures but it’s not very common.

Moved everything down to the second shelf from the top.  I still need to swap the wings for the VF-1J Max and CF VF-1A and put missiles on.

The first shelf from the top will have in Fighter mode a VF-1S Roy, Hikaru, and Max with Strike Parts, VE-1 and VT-1 fully equipped, VE-1s with custom Fast Packs, several CF VF-1As with Fast Packs, and a VF-2SS with SAP.

The third shelf will have in Fighter mode a Konig Monster, several CF VF-1As, and a VF100 VF-25G.

The fourth shelf will have a Monster, Destroids, and Armored Valkyries.

Man, those two older 19's REALLY making me wish Bandai would redo them properly for HM-R! I'd be all in. 

[seti88]

Am gonna lose my mind if bandai announces HMR frontier...just imagine mix and matching all the valks of both series in one display...

dear santa....

[sh9000]

I love different Valkyries flying together.

C'mon bandai...do it!!!!

THE VCE exam body has apologised and promised no students will be disadvantaged after a doctored image depicting a giant robot assisting socialist revolutionaries in 1917 was accidentally used in a history exam.

HMR Glaugs are showing up in the oddest places....

I was trying to stuff 11 of them in one cube last night and gave up. Even if I had the right stand assortment......that's hard!!!

Is there are a VF-1S Roy release sans Strike Packs? The Roy in this shot looks very white compared to my "grey" ones.

Pretty sure that’s the original Hi Metal Strike VF-1S, which is more white in color. Some of us are using it as a stand in for a TV version.

What stand and adapter are you using for the VF-19s? I don't like the one that comes with them

This was just answered a few posts back and again a bit before that. NBD, it comes with the Missile Effect Set and Glaug. Some other Bandai products come with it but it is more rare. 

[Convectuoso]

Thanks, @Slave IV but I actually want to know about the adapter @sh9000 is using to attach the stand to the VF-19s
