Macross Collection Display Thread

[Froy]

Just started collecting a little over a year ago, these are my 1/48's

Why only Miriya VF-1J? It is strange seeing only one of the pair.

[davzilla]

It's about time we see some of the new guys collection pics. I saw the lists in the panic buy thread, now let's see the results.

sadly i can't buy much stuff from the FS forum, shipping from US to Canada is a PIA. I can order tax and duty free from japan all day long though. :/

[xrentonx]

Low Viz Focker is my favorite of them all

Here's my display case in progress. It's a little cluttered right now as I'm still trying to figure out the best way to pose everything to maximize space. I'm hoping the 6 flightpose stands I have on preorder will help because I still have 3 more valks that need to be taken out of their boxes!

i like that you have all the vf-1s' on top. i see a vf 171 cf box on the side and an alto 25F

[Benson13]

Trust me David, you need to crack open that 1D. So many iconic poses to be displayed with that one.

[Guest davidwhangchoi]

you're a bad influence, jk i actually had two vf-1ds, i had one on display (not in a case but on my glass table away from light) but i gave it to a friend as a wedding present cause i had two and i figured i just open the second (i got the vf-1d for 75 and the 30th option parts version for 115) but when yamato closed and everyone freaked out, i just put everything away and was afraid to touch anything that became out of control in demand.

i wanted to ask my friend for the vf-1d back because his wife thinks it's a piece of junk and wants to throw it away but i couldn't say anything about taking it back bc it was a wedding gift but i told him don't let her throw it away.

haha I know what you mean. I still haven't open couple of my boxes since I got it couple months ago.

i feel ya!

[Benson13]

I've yet to see anyone knock a Valk because it's box was open. I personally think these bad boys need to be cracked open and enjoyed. It's one reason I don't mind loose Valks. I get them cheaper and I get to whoosh them around the house. I tried whooshing one around while it was still in the box but it wasn't the same for some reason.

hahahaha. Benson, not only do you have a compelling argument that's difficult to refute, that was damn funny.

edit: i'm still dying of laughter

I got the bandai stands from a local gundam model shop called robot4less.

So what do the rest of you new guys have for displays? What do you like about other members displays? What is your ideal display? What are some unique ways you'd display your valks?

It's time to breathe some new life into this thread.

[Kicker773]

Hik*...sup Benson hik* (a little buzz today, wife is out in vegas, guys took me out for a spin)

New guys assemble and post more pics! Hik*

Breathe the Colorado Air~~~

You can a better pose for Max and the 1J by bending the elbow a bit more... They're double-jointed

Haha, i remember the time when i only had 1 cab and those 3 VF-1S valks (and a few other things)... It's always great to see other members' growing collection pics (not just text...). My collecting has been severely slowed down due to limited space and funds...

Now i only have old pics to share...

Man do I love that Hikaru bringing the hate pose.

How do you guys like organizing your collection? Me personally, I like to group by series. I also have a shelf dedicated to the enemies and their mecha. I'll be adding tbe Theater Scout and Gnerl to it soon. I've seen others just create an epic tower of Macross. No rhyme or reason, just up.

I try to do by series/groups. I've got a Zentradi/Meltrandi shelf, a VF-1 only, Battroid/Destroid, a Plus/7, and a miscellaneous (old Bandai and Imai kits, plus a VF-2SS).

[Benson13]

Jefuemon, how did you go about selecting what went on what piece of shelf real estate? I noticed that what may be considered less popular mecha has some of the more prime shelf space.

I can't find any local shop in Nor Cal., bummer!
