Guest davidwhangchoi Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 Thanks Kicker i do like my yamato's better than my Bandai's too I was wondering if anyone would notice. Lol I have an extra VF-1S Hikaru and VF-1A Max but no VF-1A Hikaru so I switched the heads of the 2 so my weathered VF-1S Max is still in plane mode. I positioned the gunpod so the number 13 wouldnt be seen on the Max. I do like the blue heat shield better on the VF-1S Max anyways. lol, yeah i just sold my vf-1s max and made sure to put black heat shield in the header. i noticed it bc on the box of the vf-1s max, it shows only shows a blue heat shield and no way to see ait's blk through the display window under the flap in fighter mode. So i had to look that up before buying as i was confused by the box photos. i thought it was funny when i saw yours blue as it matches vf-1s max's box art. Quote
Valkyrie Magnus Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 Yeah I like the blue heat shield on the VF-1S Max even though the black is anime accurate. Plus a cheap Max VF-1A conversion to the 1S wasn't to hard of a price hit lol Quote
locidm Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 can any of you guys confirm whether VF-1A weathering max come with intake covers or not? I can't imagine they wouldn't but I got mine used and it didn't come with the covers. Quote
Vi-RS Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 can any of you guys confirm whether VF-1A weathering max come with intake covers or not? I can't imagine they wouldn't but I got mine used and it didn't come with the covers. The intake covers are standard accessory on every V2. Quote
locidm Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 The intake covers are standard accessory on every V2. That's what I figured since all my other V2's have them, but it's my first weather edition VF-1 so I thought I'd ask before I go and complain to the seller just to make sure. Quote
Sephiroth Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 Finally got a VF-1D, this is by far my favorite Macross toy. Thank you raptormesh for the hookup! Quote
Benson13 Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 It's ugly and iconic at the same time. I love it as well. Quote
m0n5t3r Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 (edited) It's ugly and iconic at the same time. I love it as well. By 'ugly' you really mean beautiful, right? Right! Finally got a VF-1D, this is by far my favorite Macross toy. Thank you raptormesh for the hookup! DSC04960.JPG It's my favorite too... Looks great. Congrats! Edited May 21, 2013 by m0n5t3r Quote
Benson13 Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 By 'ugly' you really mean beautiful, right? Right! Nope. I meant ugly as in dog face, treasure troll, herdy gurdy, buttah face, slam pig, and Sloth like. Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 (edited) Congrats on getting the 1D. I originally didn't plan on getting the 1/60 v2's, but since the two seaters were unique to that line, that was the first of them that I got and that eventually sold me on the rest of the VF-1 v2's.

Yup, the 1D was my first V.2 and now I'm in a 12 step program. Quote
KH355hamdi Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 My neck hurts. I finally got my display up and running Quote
Scyla Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 My neck hurts. Then you need a monitor that can pivot. Quote
Dimis Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 It's ugly and iconic at the same time. I love it as well. I like it a lot, but i hate the black markings on the chest plate. Yamato's rather mute applications don't help it either. Which is why i still find the Ostrich a more beautiful/ugly fighter. Quote

Which is why i still find the Ostrich a more beautiful/ugly fighter.Now the VT-1 head (in b-mode) is what i would consider ugly. Though i still can't decide which is the uglier battroid head... the VT's or the VE's. Edited May 21, 2013 by m0n5t3r Quote

It was the same for me too. I had my 1/48 collection and that was enough for me at the time, but the 2 seaters of the V2 1/60's started me on a slippery slope of starting a new collection. Quote

MacrossJunkie Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 jar jar binks valk? More like a trade federation droid valk from the front view. Roger roger! Quote
NightCastle Posted May 22, 2013 Posted May 22, 2013 still growing... VF-171: "Oh, so, that is how you hold it!!" Other Valks: "Shut up and just aim!!" Sorry, just had to MST3K it. Quote
Benson13 Posted May 22, 2013 Posted May 22, 2013 It's not like the CF pilots ever made it to gerwalk nevermind battroid. How would they know how to hold the weapon? Quote

MacrossJunkie Posted May 22, 2013 Posted May 22, 2013 Such an awesome display, Kicker. The additional LED strip added to the front edge of the shelf is a nice touch. Quote
DarrinG Posted May 22, 2013 Posted May 22, 2013 I really like the way the DVDs and figures work integrated with the mechs. Gives you that total 'kid-in-a-candystore' type feel. "And I want that one, and that one... and..." Quote
Kicker773 Posted May 22, 2013 Posted May 22, 2013 thanks guys... VF17S Millia still in the works... Quote
