Kicker773 Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 (edited) Your search for a sealed series 4 made me look for mine. Can't find it but I found 2 sets of sealed Macross pencil sharpeners! And it pains me to see your TH with the yellow tape still. I say send it to me next month and lets finish that guy up! Yeah I have two of the pencil sharpeners sets in the closet. I bought a few of those to try and get as many pilots as possible. For some reason I don't know why I didn't pick up a 2nd box of that series 4. I guess since I got the chase figure in one go. I didn't think I'd get anal about having all series still in sealed boxes. I know the TH Needs some loving. I've been so busy trying to get the other Model Graphix valks. And actually the TH might be in the back burner until the rest of my ships get finished. I still have the Valhalla from VFX which should look really good next to a gigantic VF4. The resin kits from Macross II VF2J and V2SS which still needs to get finished including the Silvie fig. Plus to there's still so many other ships that needs to get done. Macross City 7, CV299, CV404, CV565, CV412, Miria Ship, Meltran Flap Ship, Zentraedi Destroyer, Zentraedi Flag ship, Galaxy 7, Zentraedi figures, Megaroad, and SDF2. Maybe I'll take you on that offer. Time will tell. How long does it take you to dust Kicker? Not long. My cases are pretty good and keeps dust out Plus I've noticed there isn't much dust really. I'm always in here now that the computer is inside the Mac Room. Edited March 9, 2013 by Kicker773 Quote
Kicker773 Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 I want to know what's going on with that black and brown -1J behind them. :edit: dude, every time you post a picture with that grace figure visible in it, it makes me want to buy one. Seriously, I'm staring at an eBay listing right now and contemplating spending $50 on the unasembled resin kit... please stop doing that. The J was a custom done by WickedPrince. a Kakizaki custom =T Quote
505thAirborne Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 A rainy day is a good excuse to take some pictures, well that and seeing Kickers museum! Quote
Valkyrie Magnus Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 Good stuff! I am jealous! I wish I didn't stop collecting back in 2007 Quote
lykiat Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Alright kicker, you gave me more inspiration to just focus on 1/48 valks Quote
mass driver Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) Awesome collection Kicker. I love how you have all the 1/48 and 1/60 valks lined up in battroid mode like that in single file. Very smart use of space and it really appeals to my OCD tendencies for neatness. Very clean and attractive way to display them all. Edited March 10, 2013 by mass driver Quote
valid Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) there's not enough love for bandai 1:100 Edited March 10, 2013 by valid Quote
caslon Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Tell the MFM I said whats up! Hey Kicker, you know MFM? I'm one of them and we're hoping you could join us if you would like to.. Quote
vt102 Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 there's not enough love for bandai 1:100 I know... I am looking for one, but can't find one at a decent price. Quote
Kicker773 Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Hey Kicker, you know MFM? I'm one of them and we're hoping you could join us if you would like to.. Someone already has my SN on FB...so we'll see. I don't think I can ever take a picture of a wall of my collection if I have kept them all in boxes, the 1/48 only it would cover half or my whole house lol. Quote
EXO Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 there's not enough love for bandai 1:100 I love those little guys. But the super limited stuff were just too super limited. I wanted to get each type in Hikaru colors. Quote
SuperSenpai Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 there's not enough love for bandai 1:100 Agreed. Those were great toys. In fact, while my Yamato 1/60 v2 is definitely tops, I think I may prefer my Bandai 1/100 to my Yamato 1/48. Sure, it's a much smaller scale, but I'm constantly amazed at how much they were able to cram into such a small size. I think it holds together better than the 1/48, and it's a lot cheaper too (or at least it was). Quote

Kicker773 Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 She there...atleast the opened one....just hanging with a different crowd Quote
Edi Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Here is how mine looks at the moment. With more stuff pre-ordered, I'm going to need more space. Quote
dapro Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Maybe I should display my figures inside the box on the detolf case. Quote
Wasabi-san Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 505th Airborne: Just curious as to the history of the paint schemes on the black/blue "321" valk, and the sweet looking VF-1A done in multi brown and black. Also, was the Tomahawk done in the Civil Defense white/orange a re-paint, or did it come stock? Pretty cool and good ideas if they're custom. Quote

Also, was the Tomahawk done in the Civil Defense white/orange a re-paint, or did it come stock? Pretty cool and good ideas if they're custom. Hey Wasabi, the 321 Valk was a mix of my love for 1/48 Low Vis VF-1A & the Cavaliers paint job, so I tried a blending of the two, I was impressed how well the light blue worked out. The 1A Black & Tan was another idea for how to make a Cannon Fodder scheme more interesting, also an excuse to try out the tan paint EXO recommended to me, its worth the hefty price tag. The stickers all came from spare VF-0 & VF-1 sheets. The Tomahawk is a definite custom paint job, it was always my favorite Destroid color scheme. Not sure if its officially Macross or a RT thing, but I like it and looks awesome in my collection. One of these days I'll get the Yamato version of Destroids, keep one as a tan/brown and the other white/orange. Quote

There are a few in the back of the Master File books that I've wanted to paint up as customs, but I'm slightly lacking in skill! Quote

505thAirborne Posted March 13, 2013 Posted March 13, 2013 I'll try and take some better pics of the 321 I think that one can still transform, however the VF-1A Black & Tan was a busted mess before I repainted so shes stuck as a Battroid only. If you have a V.2 1/60 as well a Tomahawk and want to try out these paint schemes by all means Do It!! Would love to see them on the newer versions. Quote
Kicker773 Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 No custom Tomahawk but this thread is in need of some destroid love... ignore the glare I was too lazy to move the glass panels....well enjoy anyway... Quote
xrentonx Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 I require season tickets to your museum'o'Valks. Just sayin', man! You'll make back what you spent on puttin that collection together in a few months Quote
Valkyrie Magnus Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 Nice Tomahawks! Damn you have everything! Quote
ah_t00t Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 I am always impressed by the amount of collection you have & the amount of time you take to pose each n every valk detaily! Awesome!! Quote
