jvmacross Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 It really looks great. What size is the whole assembly? 12" H x 24" L x 12" W looks great! Just needs some crew. Agreed....I have a set of EXO's ground crew and some other figurines and accessories...but I would need to "redeploy" them from this diorama.... Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 I think the second and third from the last look the most like there is an actual starfield outside the hangar. Nice shots! i agree that looks like it's really in space. amazing jvmacross!!! Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Awesome hangar jvmacross! great way to show the valks, love it. Quote
sreichma Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) Never noticed the YF-25 Prophecy in this picture until now, pretty sure thats it but I can't see PROPHECY written on the fuselage. Edited February 28, 2014 by sreichma Quote
diabloM Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 how about adding this to low-gravity hangar? Quote
EXO Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 how about adding this to low-gravity hangar? Wow what is that? I was thinking about making something like that. I thought that the hangar should have a power loader of some sort even if it wasn't canon. I was thining of copying this... Quote
charger69 Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 how about adding this to low-gravity hangar? Too Gundamish... pass.... . . . . . Quote
Valkyrie2008 Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 jvmacross, what material did you use for this hanger deck? It looks realistic! Quote
jvmacross Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 jvmacross, what material did you use for this hanger deck? It looks realistic! Cold hard cash! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hobby-Master-1-48-USN-Modern-Carrier-Deck-display-section-2-HD2005-/121186926963 You can probably also find them elsewhere.....the support vehicles and figurines are a combination of EXO designs and Hobbymaster diecast accessories....for some dumb reason Hobbymaster has stopped producing them and are near impossible to find....been looking for more with no luck....at least not from places in the US Not sure if EXO is still making his accessories...but he should!

It´s a lego kits? What is the name of that kit? I saw this on one of the CDX episodes. http://www.hlj.com/product/WAVKM-21/Sci Quote

Dimis Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 What is the name of that kit? I saw this on one of the CDX episodes. I think you are referring to this? -> http://www.collectiondx.com/news_item/91113/space_pod_crab_03_non_scale_model_kit Quote
Mommar Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Agreed....plain space full of stars works the best....was trying to get one with a small bit of the earth or planet...but couldn't find one that I liked.... Did you mean "hole"? yeah....I was going for the fighter bay area of something like the Prometheus looking out into space.....like near an elevator or deployment area... This was my inspiration......a couple of my favorite Macross ilustrations of all time.... I really need to get some of these art books, I'm missing out on a lot. Quote
jvmacross Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 I really need to get some of these art books, I'm missing out on a lot. If you only want to get one...I suggest the Second Sortie book..... Quote
Valkyrie Magnus Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 JVMacross that is an awesome display! Quote
Mechapilot77 Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 speaking of displays...anyone plan on getting this to use with their valks? its only about 10.2 inches tall but i think that may be suitable enough for 1/60 vf-1s. http://www.hlj.com/product/ban989554/Sup Quote
SuperSenpai Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 I was thinking, it might be a fun idea to have a Macross Display "Best of" or "Hall of Fame". Based on photos posted in this thread, we could nominate folks, and then open a poll to see who would have the top 5 (or 10 or 12 or whatever arbitrary number) votes. We could make a sticky thread for the Toy forum that showed off the collections we have voted as being best of the best. Quote
skullmilitia Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 To be fair I think we'd need two categories. 1) Nicest Display (for us) 2) Nicest Museum (Kicker, Master of Macross) Lol Quote
plastik Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 To be fair I think we'd need two categories. 1) Nicest Display (for us) 2) Nicest Museum (Kicker, Master of Macross) Lol Agreed! Kicker and Master of Macross are pretty much in a league of their own. I think it would be a fun to see this. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 Agreed! Kicker and Master of Macross are pretty much in a league of their own. I think it would be a fun to see this. And MacrossJunkie with best weathering and photos. Quote
megaprime Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 My noob Mexican collection display. I was one of those "Robotech" kids 28 years ago, right now I'm catching up with the Macross series. Can i ask, who are those little figurines in above picture made by? They're quite cute. Risers are the best. Are there any risers for batroid mode? Or something made out of clear plastic to replace the original stands that come with the Bandai valks (even if it is just the vertical bit of the stand)? Quote
XFJ-01A Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 I just wanted to share my current layout before the overhaul. The shelf where I display my DX chogokins was actually and addition I installed myself. The shelving on either side was an earlier addition that couldnt be moved. I apologize for the bad lighting. My room is only lit up by one central bulb. I plan on getting some display lighting for the overhaul. Quote
SaitouSad Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 ^that's a pretty sweet collection!Though being in open shelves, it must get pretty troublesome to clean up the dust. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 Can i ask, who are those little figurines in above picture made by? They're quite cute. Those are some oldie toynami figurines, I have them also. They're available now in keychain version.: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Robotech-Keychains-Super-Deformed-Mech-2-Tall-Toynami-Harmony-Gold-/331150180962 Quote
XFJ-01A Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 ^that's a pretty sweet collection! Though being in open shelves, it must get pretty troublesome to clean up the dust. A little, yeah. But to be honest I dont really mind it all that much. Gives me a chance to just not have to think of anything on a weekend and just spend the day dusting figures. I actually bought a makeup brush kit just for this purpose. I've been thinking of putting a piece of hinged plexiglass over the openings though. Quote

Murphy Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 Had a little earthquake in L.A. today my only casualty. Quote
happy_spike Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 It's OK, Michael is used to dying. haha so true. I loved those little Toynami guys, I had Miria and the Orange trainer on the dash of my car! Then my tyre blew out and I rolled it... they didn't make it . Also had the Roy keychain, but they are vinyl so I actually don't recommend using them as a keychain, they won't last. Quote
Loop Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Cans of pressuirsed air are also very good. I agree, the dust in my house remains very dry. All I have to do is blast my toys with a bit of canned air then they are like new. If it's a bit harder I whip out the brushes I picked up at Michael's to help remove the dust. Quote
