Bandai Macross Δ Mecha Collection Small Scale Plastic Model Kits

[mickyg]

Doh! I didn't look closely enough at the price - that would have been a dead giveaway. Thanks for clearing that up.

[lancalot]

man i love these tiny planes.... lol ... the sticker that come with them is good so that you dont have to paint or anything to make it look good....

but i got a few cause it cheap and i love to do my own paint scheme without having to worry about messing an expensive figure up ....

Wow customised 31 valk..Those lines look straight and thin...

[MechTech]

Cool lookin'! - MT

[areaseven]

Diorama time.

[kajnrig]

Oof. Finally received my kits. On the one hand, boy do I need to stop using SAL. On the other, there's still nothing quite like the mixture of anxiety and anticipation when waiting for a package to arrive.

Will get to building things up this weekend, and maybe scanning those stickers for some decal-making practice?

SCOOPDA!

If you want to see how Macross Elysion will look in cruiser mode...it's getting a Mecha Colle. Courtesy of Tochiro's Twitter:

Sweet looking cruiser mode! Lots of neat stuff coming out. Also saw pics of Super Sigfried and Draken in Gerwalk.

[chaos77]

Nice. And only for 540 yen. We just have to wait 4 more months.

[seti88]

Details on the elysion certainly are impressive, i wonder how many stickers would be involved...

[David Hingtgen]

I'm thinking that may look the best of all, by far, by simply using a wash.

[chyll2]

I will get that ship mode of Elysion. As David mentioned, a wash is enough to make it look good. I might experiment with glaze

[Graham]

Hmm.........looks great, but definitely not what I expected for Cruiser mode. Definitely showing it's Macross Quarter Influence there.

Still, looks far better than the Quarter ever did.

[Kelsain]

If they make the storm attacker too, I hope it ends up the same scale. Very cool!

[Duymon]

I'm curious how the legs fold out the sides like that in cruiser mod.

At least it's not as half-assed as the macross Quarter though transformation, if the DX toy was any indication.\

I still wish somebody would make Battle 7 and Battle Frontier. I love the design and how closely resemble each-other.

Elysion is a beauty!

Legs connected with Aether's upper deck form a second platform! A longer platfom for Monsters maybe?

Nice pics! Cheyennes were shown in the first ep so moar destroids and monsters are always welcome on deck!

[Kelsain]

It also looks like the "pelvis" of the attacker folds forward in front of the chest, rather than backward. This allows the legs to link up with the carriers rather than dangling behind.

Possibly the best example ever.

[charger69]

^^^^ Amazingly accurate depiction

[charger69]

For LOLs

[Kelsain]

Hey, those image angles line up pretty well!

[SebastianP]

The Macross Elysion may be the only Mecha Colle kit I'm getting of the entire lot, unless they *really* throw us a bone and give us a Battle Frontier and/or Battle Galaxy. The others I can do entirely without, but with the ships I'm pretty sure that Mecha Colle is all we're ever going to get that'll be worth the asking price....

[UN Spacy]

LOL...almost spit my coffee out.

[seti88]

For LOLs

Hahahaha nice one kelsain and charger!!

These ship/cat comparison photos should be on mw front page!!

[chyll2]

Perfect illustration.

[00Geass]

Painted my VF-171 up like the VF-17S

[Chronocidal]

See, now that is pretty. I might have to do that as well.

Despite the lack of an actual VF-17, I was really happy when I unlocked both Gamlin's and Millia's VF-17 schemes for the VF-171 in Macross 30. They just look great in those colors.

[MechTech]

That model looks great. That's cool with the cats! Forget sharks with lasers, let's go cats with high output energy cannon! - MT

[Jefuemon]

You can do them up in any color you want.

[David Hingtgen]

That YF-30 is *exactly* what I want from a VF-31A----mostly low-vis but with a nice "splash of color".

It also looks like the "pelvis" of the attacker folds forward in front of the chest, rather than backward. This allows the legs to link up with the carriers rather than dangling behind.

One of, if not, the greatest post for this thread I say.

One of, if not, the greatest post for this thread I say.

Thanks!

It is my great pleasure, and the pride of my father's, to entertain people with bad puns and silly visual humor.

Thanks, Dad!

[chaos77]

I'll just put this right here. It took me way too long, but I think it was worth it.
