borgified Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Picked out the two grails out from my collection. If Bandai can do their DX VF-1 variants, I would actually pick a copy up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arthurius Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 I had regretted selling my VF-1J Stealth w/ boosters like 10 years ago. I should have kept that one, and sold my regular ones (which i have now). The black ones dont yellow. My 2x 25th Anniversary black/gold Valks look the same as day one, even when stored in storage.

borgified Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 So two 1/48 Yammie Strike VF-1J with the corresponding SSP, will you go with the Woodland Version 1a and the Woodland GBP Armour next? I have a strange feeling that you might get a copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeniusornome Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I think they’d make sense. A space forest would not be out of place in the same series that brought us galaxy whales, hyperspace bugs and walkure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

borgified Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 The GBP is not to everyone's fancy as it's too bulky and clunky, unlike the SSP packs which is more streamlined and you can get away quicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrow Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I've always felt that the GBP goes with the S & J more than the smaller A head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the 1/48 GBP and I have the 1/60 GBP. I liked how the 1/48 looked for the most part but it's articulation wasn't nearly as good as the 1/60. And man that 1/48 was just finicky. The 1/60 IMO is a much better piece of engineering. And me saying that is saying something. I like the 1/48 size a LOT more than the 1/60's. I kept the 1/60 in my Hikaru display and sold the 1/48. My fingers are crossed for Bandai to make a good 1/48 GBP some day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Sauce Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Man, seeing all these pics is making me miss my old 1/48's. Only one I really regret selling was the Stealth 1J with the super packs and my Low Vis. 1A. Maybe someday I'll try and get them again. Love all these customs.

Mog Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Wonder if @Anasazi37 still makes stickers. I remember there was a set of nose-art designs that could spruce/“spice” up the inner part of the GBP leg armor. Just wish there was a design or two for Misa.

This is the complete set: https://sites.google.com/site/tridentdesignworksdecals/yamato/1-48/gbp-1s-leg-art Back in the day, folks would just tell me which ones they wanted (usually just a few). I finished a print run recently, which I don't do very often anymore because my printer is slowly dying, but let me know what you're looking for.

I only have one GBP armor, so I’m good. If there were to be some Misa ones, I wouldn’t mind one that was like someone’s old “Sour Puss” avatar (for those folks looking for something more on the comical side of things). Or a sketch of Ryuji’s ridiculously good kitbashed models/figurines (for those looking for something more in line with the classic WWII nosearts).
