happy_spike Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Great pics Old Man Feel sorry for Kakizaki, he's getting rearended by a clown. Poor Kakizaki's always getting shafted, even by his own ships' barrier... Quote

no3Ljm Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 So I got my first Detolf yesterday, just about managed to squeeze everything in/on. *snip some photos* Hope you like. Great shots. Didn't know Ikea already re-released the 'white' Detolf. Thought it will be available by Aug/Sept. Anyways, love the VF-1J! So classic and clean looking. Also, I noticed that you didn't pushed back the arm to release the guns on the forearms. Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 Think I'm going to finally check out some LED lighting strips for my shelves. They really do make the display "pop". -b. Quote
Saburo Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 Think I'm going to finally check out some LED lighting strips for my shelves. They really do make the display "pop". -b. You thinking of the standard light LED strips or the type that you can change the color? I have seen some displays using the color change LEDs and they can make the display quite dramatic. Quote

Good question, I was thinking of the standard lighting but if there are some cool color change options then I'll look at those too. Thank you for the suggestion! -b. Quote

I did but when I raised the arms into that pose by bending at the elbow - it retracts them. ;-) Quote
The Old Man Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 Detolf #2 inevitably went up today. I had a brief play around with where to place the valks and came up with this: I'm sure it'll change again and those Robocop pieces will soon be kicked out lol. Quote
Gakken85 Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) Finally took some pics of my collection. I've packed 'em in a bit more than I'd like, but I think it's a nice mix of using the space wisely and keeping it somewhat clean. I like to keep it colorful for sure. Top shelf is TV with Hik in the forefront. Love the Destroids framing the Elint. Next one down is for M & M and my Angel bird. I need a Max Vf-1J or maybe slap some supers on my Virgin Road. 3rd shelf is for Low viz and such. Bottom shelf is some none SDF fighters. I definitely have a few more pieces that I want, but I'm happy after 1 years. Has it been 1 year already? It went by fast http://imgur.com/a/CYW3C Edited July 6, 2014 by Gakken85 Quote

Gakken85 Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) spanner76 - Yes! I got that idea from another Macross world member a few months back. (Sorry, the name slips my mind) I bought some from a outdoor shop for 4 bucks? I just tie it under the bars and push and pull it for angles and such. I want to titlt the 1/48 down a bit to show the top.It's strong, and light, and gives you a lot of options. The best part is you can barely see it Dapro - Thank you sir Saburo - I've posted some in the Godzilla movie thread in the Sci-fi forum, but I can post some for you I have the GMK, 84, and 2003 currently.

CoreyD Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 Gakken85 -- I just used the fishing wire Detolf trick on my Macross collection as well! I can't remember who tried it here first, but it's a fantastic idea. Really makes the fighters POP (and saves a ton of space too!) Need to post a photo... Quote
Gakken85 Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) Yeah, it's like a free stand and gives each cube 1-2 spaces you might not use. I use the leg "fins" and the little side notches on the nosecone to catch the wire, but you could probably hang them anyway. The trick is tying the knot, and giving enough space to hang down from the shelf above. Also test your know before you hang it Edited July 6, 2014 by Gakken85 Quote

Guest davidwhangchoi Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 Thank you sir! That's some nice display stuff gak Quote
Falcon18 Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 Always a joy to look at your display Gakken. One of the few who actually collects only what's nice and unique. Regarding the fishing line, it was MacrossJunkie who started using it. Quote
