Here is my current Arizona collection, most of my toys growing up and a bunch of Yamato v1's (i stopped collecting for a bit due to moving right after the v1 releases) are in Illinois being redisplayed as we speak by my brother, i think they take up a whole basement, bunch of stuff. a few of my items here are the ones i got as a kid, including my very first robotech/macross toy one of those Converters VF-1S's and my second (a big leap) the DYRL 1/55 Hikaru (the one in fighter mode). well here it is in a bulky display case

I have some more stuff not pictured, i will post that in most recent purchase thread.

PS: i hate all your collections, they are stalling me from putting up a block fence around my house lol

Yup, a 1/48 Yammie can easily be held up by a flexi-display/flightpose stand (as demonstrated below).

Updating an old set up with a few customs:

Moved into a new place, wifey told me to cut down my display areas, so have to limit the birds I get to display. . . .for now.

[Benson13]

Great collections guys. We've needed a breath of fresh air in this thread.

[bbrain]

Deadeye and Mog, love the fighter modes! i need to get me some stands.

I am going to be lazy and ask here, what are the best and cheapest stands out there?

[Benson13]

Check out flightpose.com. There are reports of issues with the tips against paint but nothing major. There's a thread around here somewhere.

[Deadeye_281]

Deadeye,

Love the picture in the frame! Great collection btw.

Yeah, it's called 'Ring of Steel'. It's based on a real photo of some Canadian Leopard 1s in Kandahar Province.

Thx man! I did some paint work on the GU-11s, the FPs and added a black stripe on the head. Pretty happy how it turned out so far as I'm not done yet.

BTW, the VE-1 in the pic is the one that you helped me track down so thx on that.

Very nice, Deadeye! Classy and clean

Thx man. I'm going for an 'evolution of the valkyrie' kind of thing. I boxed my 19 due to the new one coming out.

[Deadeye_281]

Deadeye, great pose on the 1S and your display is so simple and clean.

I took your advice on the VF-22 and you were bang on on the sleekness of the black. Love that Valk.

And there's no need to worry about tracking down fast packs because they're already built in.

If someone is selling the old version of the flightpose stands, that'd be even better.

I personally never had any issues whatsoever with the black rubber tips (though I'm not sure what others' experiences have been like).

And I'm not sure if there's a difference between the old version's base and the newer one's base (old one solid and new one more hollow? ).

But I am quite fond of the old versions.

[MacrossJunkie]

The old ones definitely had a more stable base since they were heavier due to being a solid piece of acrylic (both the base and the disc) rather than hollow and they're less prone to cracking as well.

[anime52k8]

The new ones kind of suck, they're too light to hold heavy toys at any kind of angle. the plastic disc always breaks, and the clear tips will strip paint off toys if you leave it too long.

My Frontier collection

[Benson13]

Nice T. The light makes those guys look evil, and I like that.

[Scyla]

Nice collection TCracker. Now I feel the need to track down Altos 29 and 171 for my own collection.

[Gakken85]

Finally transformed my 30th VF-1J Hikaru TV last night while watching Top Gun.

I tried to mimic the pose from the Title Credits

Just a crappy phone photo unfortunately.

Nice! My VF-1j still in fighter mode, and never been transform. Once of these days!

[Gakken85]

There is something really special about the TV version. The simplicity of the white and red. Love it in Battroid

[dapro]

I think you need a stand to get the true pose from the picture. haha

[Gakken85]

Yeah it's at an angle and his front leg is a lot further out, but close enough

[ps99042]

Finally opened my Bandai Renewals and now I'm running low on shelf space.

[barurutor]

amazing collection!

[derex3592]

A few pics around the "toy room" as my gf calls it, while I try to re-arrange the Macross cabinet once again to make everything fit! ....I correct her by saying "the props and collectibles room dear"...

[XFJ-01A]

Finally completed Macross Frontier's Skull Squadron. Minus the Monster...Thats the Floppy Yamato.

Derex, where did you get the floating shelves from? I've been looking for something I can put my Nendoroids on.

That's an awesome Star Wars collection. I got the 1/72 Millennium Falcon too, but it's at the office.

If you have built the FM 1:72 kit then you belong to an exclusively COOL club sir! I really enjoyed building it! Took me 8 months for the model itself, and officially only lost 1 tiny part.....LOL...You?

to XFJ-01A --- the Curio's are all by Polaski and were purchased on-line. Edited November 6, 2013 by derex3592

Unfortunately, it is the Revell 1/72 kit. That kit wasn't the best fitting with finest detailing. There were lots of kit bashing, custom mods and long hours of sanding and puttying for that kit to come out sort of decent. But that kit was cheap from the start.

[derex3592]

No worries..."she'll make .5 past light speed...she may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts kid. I've made a lot of special modifications myself"

Great display. Love Anduril and the Daywalker sword chillin in the background.

[derex3592]

Thanks! Love swords!
