Guilty! Especially the lower right cell....so far i see what seems to b paper crafts of the VF-1, VF-25...

Part of me is hoping the lower cell is the new movie valk he is tinkering with..but the odds of that secret showing is next to nil...

I did and only left the clear part.

@sh9000 the filter makes it look cartoony, like the intro pose.  Nice

@Lolicon nice panel line work, breaks up the white on top.  If Max's cartoon ride had a V like Hikaru's chest V it would look less bland.  Was the V only for the 1j rides?

The 1-S had it also

Thanks, and as mentioned above the S type had the stripes too. Then everyone got them in the movie, because it looks good. Oh and the wedding 1D had them too.

Very cool!  Reminds me of A Scanner Darkly, that animated / real footage fusion.  Looks great.

Thanks.  I like how this one came out too.

@sh9000 the cartoon filter looks very nice as the shades make the white look better, though the blue is not as bright.  It also looks less like plastic

Ha ha brain fart on my part.  I meant the plain V stripes that the 1j had, were these only on 1j types?  The S types have a filled in V stripe with red or yellow, blue etc., which have a different look because of the extra color.  AFAIK, but I haven't watched the tv series for a long time, the 1a types didn't have any stripes and were plain one color on the chest.

As much as I like Max's blue, the plain chest could use some color.  My next valk is likely one with a different head and chest paint, even though I like cannon fodders.

I really love the aggressive poses you can get Gerwalk mode into with the DX.  This mode can look weak to me, but I think it’s all about the stance.

Me too.  I usually like the battroid and fighter mode more than gerwalk but this Dx has the best A stance. nice weathering.

Unless I missed something, it looks like the DYRL Kakizaki, Hikaru, and Max Super VF-1A are shown on this page:

https://game.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/news/1214619.html

I like the red stripe around the head lasers.  Looking forward to these.

 

Yup, we've been discussing this since pics were posted the night before the event.  The DX YF-21 has been getting more buzz on the board, but I'm personally excited for these.  DYRL is on the top of my Macross list followed by Frontier.  I think most of the discussion has been around the 011 Skull part because it isn't included in the Strike Parts.  Thought is that Roy, Kaki, Max will be regular releases but Hikkie 1A possibly TWE bundle with parts?

My baby finally arrived after a bit of a wait:

Already having fun popping it in with my other Yammie 1/48s.

This has to be my favorite bit of tampo detail, though. I love having the military label for the fastpacks to explain the hole required for them. That and the teeny Vermillion 3.

Alright well I was sick for the past several days and in the meantime got my 2nd vf-1a.   Going to open one up right now.  The other one I'm keeping safe in the Amazon shipper sealed in their plastic wrap.

Ok so opened it up.  Very nice model. I'm pretty impressed that it came with a stand too, did not know that.  I just lowered the landing gear, going to have it in fighter plane mode for a while because I haven't seen this variation of color on a premium valkyrie yet before.  Pretty nice.

@sh9000 nice work.  Did you ever do missile effects parts for the GBP?

 

Thanks.  Only for the HMR Armored Valkyrie so far.

Is it me or is the wing on the VF-25 behind him either missing or broken?

Looking closely those might be paper/cardboard mock-ups instead of the actual dxs. Why he chose to place mock-ups behind him instead of dxs... beats me.

He's surrounded by that stuff all day. It's become "invisible" to him.

I've been working with very, very high end race car/motorcycle stuff forever. People freak out when they get to see it up close. I don't notice it's there anymore.

Maybe he doesn't trust housekeeping to not yoink a DX when he's not around.

Nothing a DX-IED won't solve.

But then you will lose it all together. AMD possible be taken away from your remaining valks for a very long time...

Oh I know. I wouldn't expect any self respecting collector to ever put thier prizes in such jeapordy.

On the entrance to that room though may be a different story.

I noticed that too. Maybe he uses paper craft to do quick mock-ups? Or they staged it that way intentionally. 

i feel like there’s a joke about space foods in here somewhere...

 

Edit - space folds. Folds. Damn autocorrect.
