They are quiet a site to behold, now picture that but instead of Angelbirds, All Low Viz (•.~) . Working on that when I dust the 1/48. Suggestions on trying to get a printed mock up of an 1/48 carrier deck? Just buy an aircraft carrier... Quote
Kicker773 Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Looking for some sort of Mat that has a mock up of an aircraft carrier. I could just lie it down on the floor and replay top gun on it, but with Valkyries Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Amazing as always Kicker!! I don't know how you can keep count of everything Quote

I could just lie it down on the floor and replay top gun on it, but with Valkyries I have ordered a few custom bases from Costal kits I did ask a special 1:60 scale and custom cut to fit in a detolf. I am very happy with. The guys were very helpful when you contact them by email. I know they have a set of 4 tiles that makes a complete carrier launch deck and if you have your own high definition deck image they even can print them. Quote

Not to derail the thread, but aren't those prices reaching a point where someone could just make one (3D printing etc.) for less than that? I know for some collectors, only the genuine article will do, but you would think the fact that someone could actually make one of those for cheaper would put a ceiling on the price. Or maybe those prices aren't grounded in any sort of current market reality. Edit: I just noticed they are graded, so this is definitely in the realm of the MISB type collector, not the person that is going to open and enjoy the plastic itself, so that makes more "sense," I guess. Edited May 22, 2018 by HardlyNever Quote
borgified Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Well you can make a 3D print out of just the USS Flag deck @HardlyNever for cheaper (if you have access to the software and the machine that is). Or you can get a Trackpad from here - http://robotoybase.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=152_203&product_id=4255 and Macro size it to a larger scale for your HMR collection and 1/60 valks (possibly a few 1/48 as well).

505thAirborne Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Hey Kicker, just curious, do you still have your entire VF-1 1/48 scale collection? I remember you having virtually everyone ever made plus some customs. Also, the Airshow Diorama that is possible with all those Angel Birds. Quote

I didn’t post pics because I got them organized like the previous pics so did t think anyone want to see the same ones. I was gonna take pics all of them in valk modes in the living room when I dust. All laid out 100+ not including the angel birds and 1 still sealed copy of each excluding amors. It would have be nice to lay them out on a carrier looking mat. Still have the customs as well...

Awesome, good to know they are all still there plus the Armor & customs. To have a Carrier shaped/looking mat would be sweet for taking pics & display! My personal Fantasy/Day Dream one day is to actually have a full scale Asuka II Carrier large enough for the 1/60 Mac Zero toys! Again, thank you for sharing your collection with us, it never gets old. Quote
Kicker773 Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 (edited) I only have the Asuka on these scale. I think it’s the Asuka my Macross encyclopedia is not in front of me so I can’t say for certain. Glad they are appreciated. You never know when the last time these items can be all together. Edited May 22, 2018 by Kicker773 Quote
505thAirborne Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Wow! I didn't know those Macross Ships even existed as kits, very cool & two no less! Imagine this in 1/60 scale.... One can dream. Quote
Kicker773 Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 There was a mini version of that...very small but it was out. Matchbox size I have a few model ships... Quote
505thAirborne Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 It's amazing how many kits are out there both plastic & resin. Just for Schnitz & Giggles, did you ever purchase any of the Evo Toys VF-2SS? I was just tinkering with mine. Quote
Kicker773 Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 I bought one, just one because of all the issues it came with it. Quote

Oh and can anyone guess this one @505thAirborne here’s another ship MacII Meltran Ship? From Mac7 Mini City 7 Mac7 the Movie Space Whales And Graham Macross Frontier Class Ships: tell me if anyone recognizes them =) MegaRoads VFX Ships SDF2? I Think Looks like a Vajra Ship My Egg heads and Zentraedi Ships Bunch more Macross resin figures from creators like Ryuji... Well that’s if for now...Hi let me re-introduce myself, I’m Kicker773 and I’m a Macross Fan. Happy Memorial Day weekend, gotta spend that day dusting the DC and CMS figs...
