Sephiroth Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 Just finished painting some 1/48 ground crew to go with my 1/48 VF-1A equipped with Super Armor Quote
NightCastle Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 HA! That last image looks like they are yelling "TaDa!!" Otherwise, I really like the setup. Quote
Loop Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 Love the VF-1 party Magnus, I have yet to try out the cockpit pod adapter on the arm yet. Quote
Valkyrie Magnus Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 Love the VF-1 party Magnus, I have yet to try out the cockpit pod adapter on the arm yet. Thanks Loop. I think it's fun to do with the VF-1D and the VF-1S Quote
Armor 1 Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 Just finished painting some 1/48 ground crew to go with my 1/48 VF-1A equipped with Super Armor DSC04989.JPG DSC04990.JPG DSC04993.JPG Wow, great setup Sephiroth, lot of possible stories and things going on when you look at that setup. Great stuff. Quote
dapro Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 new phone pic of my DRYL VF-1's. Is this the same stands with the adapter? http://www.amazon.com/Gundam-Action-Clear-Display-Stand/dp/B000VO056O/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1369633466&sr=8-1&keywords=gundam+base+1+stand Quote
locidm Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 Yup. The adapters work great. The stands need a little bit of glue for it to be sturdy. Don't get it through the jacked up price from amazon, get it from HLJ or other place selling at MSRP or less. I got five for around $35 shipped from HLJ. Quote
Sephiroth Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 Thanks for the compliments! I enjoy everyone else's pics, too! I'm hoping to get a set of 1/60 ground crew to paint and do some more dio pics. Quote

I'm always down for more Dio pics If you don't say "diorama", this is what I automatically think of. Quote

Valkyrie addict Posted June 1, 2013 Posted June 1, 2013 Eventough my collection is puny in comparison to yours and you have many customs, I will make it my life's goal to have a valk that you do not own. Display looks awesome, very strong lighting, if you light up all your display cases that's gonna be brighter than a stadium. Quote
erikos0311 Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 My Collection as of Jun/17/2013 Still gotta make room for all the pre-orders and other incoming Valks..! Sorry for the crappy iphone pics.! Quote

Sorry for the crappy iphone pics.! that's hot!!! but you're missing a vf-x and two rvf 25's also the nose pin (where the legs attach to the crotch) on the left side of the low viz is folded in creating a littlehole in one of your pics Edited June 18, 2013 by davidwhangchoi Quote

Shaorin Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 just netted myself a set of DarrinG's amazing GU-11 straps; Quote
plastik Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 (edited) I'm almost done with display of valks and hot toys. Just waiting on my flight pose stands to arrive and have a vf-25s renewal, rvf-25 renewal and super parts coming in the mail. Just have few more valks left to unbox and tint the glass by the window I should be done. I only wish I had room for another detolf to spread out my collection more but it's a blessing in disguise, otherwise I would have to start filling that one up too ps. If anyone has an extra Hot Toys Iron Man mark IV, VI or VII they would like to sell or trade please hit me up. That's the last one I need to finish my hot toys collection!

Are those light LED?? I might want to get me a pair or two. Where did you get them? Yeah that's the hard part when adding more detolfs, you gotta have something to fill them up with! Lol how are your vf-1s standing up like that? Wire hangars? Picture frame stands? I've always liked how valks standing up like that next to each other look. Quote

I've always liked how valks standing up like that next to each other look. The lights are LED "pucks" called Dioder from Ikea. Skullmilitia is right, I just opened the feets up and they stand on their own. Quote
erikos0311 Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Oh.... Dumb question...lol. I thought I saw something behind the valks holding them up. (Damn iPhone screen!!) lol any who, they look cool! Quote
Chronocidal Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Yeah, that's my favorite method to display pretty much any valk capable of it, mostly due to the limited space I have. You can play with the balance point on the VF-1 (and a few others) by closing the feet a notch as well, so it works with and without fast packs. You can really pack em in like sardines that way. Sadly, it doesn't work for a few valks due to unique foot designs. If you twist the ankles around on a VF-27 you can kind of do it, but otherwise it's like the SV-51 with the triple toes making it difficult. Same with the YF-21/VF-22, since the feet aren't external. I haven't tried the VF-4 that way yet, but I'm not sure the feet extend far enough to make it past the tailcone. Quote

brenttoyou Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) Had the display case for almost three months and still only managed to have just a handful ones display since I am still working on setting up my macross hanger and talking about the hanger, just complete the floor today. When completed it should use 22 mechanical chain bases. the pad and runway the right wing of the hanger, plan to build a second tier so I try to mimic some sort of elevator platform on the base and plan to add 3 more pads on the second level.

xrentonx Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Cool! Did you have to paint those white and red bits yourself? Quote
Benson13 Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Macross 7 and Frontier DYRL TV Mac Zero and Plus TV Zentraedi Quote
Scyla Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 That is a cool setup Benson! I will try to achieve something similar for myself if Arcadia decides to reissue/redo all their toys since I'm only having a (incomplete) Macross 7 and Frontier collection. Quote
