Does anyone have a pic of a Messer with VF-1S Roy Strike Packs on it?

Here you go.  I didn’t put missiles.

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.

Yep.

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

The adapter is the one that comes with the Fire Valkyries.  I didn’t want to use the black one that comes with the Blazer.

Max on the top shelf.  I need to put on the parallel head lasers and missiles on the wings.  Then more Fighters.

Thanks for the Messer pic!

 

Is that VF-1J Max a original Hi Metal?

The VF-1S Max?  It’s a custom.

Strike Valkyries are in.  I’ll adjust the head lasers and add missiles later.  That’s it for now.

Millia is here and now she's wait for Max to show up.

 

Then I just have Roy and two CFs and then I don't have any others coming. Honest.

I'll help with that.  Thanks for the reminder.  Kinda wanted the first run but passed and didn't manage to snag any after, but this one is more my style anyway.  Plus, wouldn't Hikaru have wanted to continue honoring his senpai?

Good point....maybe think of the FB2012 VF-4 version as Hikaru's ride following the DYRL version of events...and the Fokker VF-4 is Hikaru's ride following the SDFM TV timeline...which I agree with you makes sense 

The DYRL "red" VF-1S scheme was just a way for BW to make/sell a different VF-1S...

[sh9000]

HMR VF-4 ornament.

[vladykins]

Except for the Missile Regults, I'm done for a little bit. Honest.

Added an Armored VF-25F to the top shelf.

Am I guessing that was added with "Photoshop"? I've never seen a 1/100 25 before.

Bandai did the 1/100 VF-25 around 10 years ago. But they are not known for being very good, and I didn’t know they made an armored version. Knowing @sh9000, it could be some custom work.

Good heads up.

There was an armored version.

[derex3592]

*SIGH* -- If only we could get a new HM-R version of all the 25's with supers and armor. What a great day that would be. The proportions look pretty darn good 10 years ago. Use what they learned redoing the VF-1's and let's get this party started! 

[seti88]

HMR frontier would be incredible! I suspect tho bandai is waiting till inflation hikes up HMR prices accordingly for a new vf-25. That would be the day when a new HMR costs as much as today’s DX.

[Foblander]

Hmr vf-25 would be nice. So would V3 vf-25 renewal DX toys

I'd be happy withe some non transforming 1/100's in fighter mode.

 

[Convectuoso]

Bandai's 1/100 VF-25s  can be found for cheap these days, but they took the concept of parts forming to a new level. Once you go through the struggle of changing them to the desired mode, they look good, though

Don't forget.....Bandai already gave us a preview of what they may be releasing down the road.....so far it has proven pretty spot on...

Bandai pretty much released the FB 2012 VF-4....the Macross Plus YF-19 (and now the YF-21 s coming)....the MII VF-2SS.....

Based on the pic....we will probably get either a VF-19 DX or an upgrade to the original HM VF-19.....as for MF.....my guess would be an HMR VF-25 line rather than "re-inventing" the DX versions.....same goes for the VF-0....which still seems to be an Arcadia property......time will tell

Great display @sh9000!

I almost forgot that I had an Armored VF-25F.  Thanks for the compliment.

I’ll definitely buy HMR Macross Frontier.

If there is room I’m going to try to squeeze a F-14 or F-117 in one of the shelves.

I’m leaving mine in Fighter mode and I like how everything looks together.

My wallet is gonna cry if there's a MacF HMR

[sh9000]

I put a custom CF VF-1S with Strike Parts, a CF VF-1A with Fast Packs, and a VF-2SS with SAP on the top shelf.  I still need to place them on stands and equip all of the VF-1s with missiles.  There will be a VE-1, a custom VE-1 with Fast Packs, and a VT-1 joining them up there.

I'll see if I can put together the HMR chess setup this weekend.

I needed the room in one of my Detolfs so these guys got "promoted" to the big cab. Just kind of chucked them in there for now. I need to do something to tidy this traffic jam up.

Progress.  Happy Friday!
