I loved this kit, bought so many of them back in 94-95

Yeah. I regret not getting more when I had the chance. I'll have to wait till the next re-issue.

Back in the day I actually kitbashed several of the kits to make a Fighter with Super parts and a Battroid without Super Parts.

They appear to have been re-issued recently (well, after the debut of MF recent). You should be able to find some at Mandarake.

I don't know if I'd have the courage to mod my kits like that. If I had a bunch, then maybe. I'd love to see what you did. Do you have any pictures of them?

Thanks for the tip. I'll have to check out a Mandarake when they build one in the US. Maybe the next time I visit Japan.

Btw. Nice job with your VF-11C's. I've been thinking about painting my kits with a different color scheme. I'll have to dig up the motivation and the time when I have the chance.
