Maybe the grey goggle is part of the armor set and fits over the the existing figure? That would make the most sense in many ways. I’d actually prefer a set but happy to save some money if they only release the armor. 

With how thick that band of gray looks around the visor, I think this is pretty likely what's happening here.  That looks a lot bulkier than a simple paint application.

I didn't compare with the figure but that's the initial impression I got from the image.

this one looks like an armored valk. 

 wonder if there's a vf-1 inside

Here is the image brightened up.  A separate 1J head with grey goggles would be nice for just an armor set as well.

Looks cool.    I'm thinking of doing more poses before, after, and in between the ones I've already made from that episode.

Hello, does anyone know what shop is ST* COLLECTOYSGOU TOKYO J ? This is what appears on my bank statement for ordering a Chogokin Super Parts set.  Thanks

Edit: Nevermind, it must be "Big in Japan" because that's the only site besides AE that has my order.  Hopefully this post helps someone in the future though

Love the announcement, however I don't like to fork out eight billionity dollars for a real sized version of it (if it gets made unlike some here).

Two of my favorite things together!

@jvmacross I'll probably use the VF-1S with Super Parts to complete that figure pic.  On to the next pose!

I'm still amazed at the articulation on these DX toys.  

You can get them shooting from prone!

 

Of course it looks awesome standing too.

 

 

 

Really impressive, excellent pics.  The VF-1A Max & CF are always been favorite, since I was kid.

The 1J has grey visor in that pic. Wonder if it will come bundled as a set.

 

Wouldn't that be nice! And if it's next year, plenty of time to save up some $$$.

Excellent work @Lolicon, as always your weathering and photography is superb. Well done! 

A picture is worth a thousand words and this one says it all.  It is also making me hungry.

@Lolicon you inspired me.  Its been a trend to post SPAM, so here I am SPAMMING... well 25% less sodium. 

Quick setup and shoot.

I feel like that needs to be Photoshopped to change "25% LESS SODIUM" to be "Itano's Original, 1000% more missiles" or something similar

Sounds like a plan!

Besides, the owner of MacrossWorld himself has asked us to keep them coming forever....how can we refuse?

Give me some time, let me see what can do.

^^Can you add some canned corned beef, vienna sausages, and raman/instant noodles into that pic? 

Hit ALL the quick meal favorites!

Resources.  It’s always a fight over resources!

@Mog Looks like Milia wants the Vienna Sausage and Corned Beef for herself.

@treatment Goji wasn't too happy about Max hoarding the SPAM. .

I can make that wallpaper happen.

Glad to be of service. Though, I did omit the instant raman and the Korean instant noodle bowls.  Maybe someone can photoshop those in? 

Milia knows that Corned Beef is GOLD!  Sauté some onions, garlic, and tomatoes; mix the corned beef in; and then put the whole mix on top of rice. <chef’s kiss>

No cans have been opened, or packages unwrapped yet.  These instant foods are still MISB!
