I'm sure it would be considered blasphemy, but I'd love to see a transforming Super Sylph.

Since this a MW forum, I'm sure any transforming jet ideas are welcome. 
That said, the idea is not too far fetched for a 3rd party to do it, since we now have stuff we never thought it'll be possible like Asuradas perfectly transforming into IDW Drift.

Pretty much blown away with the details on this rather small 1/100 Super Sylph. Such beefy landing gears, that the gears on Macross valks look so toy-like in comparison.
 

 

  

Such a lovely bird.   And yes, those Yukikaze planes needs to transform one day. 

Great photos as always @MKT.

Thanks! The more I handle it while taking pics, the more I really appreciate the design of this Super Sylph. It's really awesome.

I'm sure many of us can remember the theme song in a snap.

Awesome pics/poses... always nice to visit this thread.

Waited almost 15 years to have a Kamina action figure... 

First pic was 2009... fast forward to 2023 and the gang is finally complete. 🙂

I don't know anything Gurren Lagann, but its great & inspiring to hear a collecting goal complete after 15 years.

Was trawling back my archive pics, and this was the 2nd toy I acquired in this collecting hobby - a 3rd party OS Evasion Prime. Together with the Renewal 25F that I acquired probably a week prior to this, I was just blown away by how far toy technology & engineering have come over the years. The complexity, paint, sculpt, precision, materials & perfect transformation aspects of them really reeled me in.

Experiment with some new filters..

Is that the guy that came with the hydrofoil?

Nah, Motor Viper.  Came with the Cobra STUN.

Always loved the color scheme of their uniform.

I had the figure and just couldn’t remember which vehicle it came from or the name. Thanks for the info 

[MKT]

Haha ok little nostalgia time for old pics I guess.. 

After being very impressed with the Evasion Prime, I went on to get the next repaint, a 'Battle Damaged' version. But re-looking at it now, the weathering is really a bit too heavy handed, and perhaps should have been called 'I just rolled in the dirt version'.

An old display of a few GI Joe figures and customs that I used to rock above my desk:

Used to have a larger display of about 9 figures on my old desk.  But I lost the pics, the display took up way too much real estate on my old desk, and had a tendency of getting knocked down or bumped.

A KO MPM Prime, with a 3rd party Annular Trailer that's mostly finished in chrome.. This was back when I heard chrome finishing could be a bit iffy on plastic and may heavily discolor over couple of short years. But after many years the chrome still looks about as good as the day I got it.

Very first model kit built back in the day..
Up till that point, always thought model kit needed glue & paint like in even older days, so was pretty stoked that it can look like a decent toy with a straight build out of the box.

I got the Zeta because it could transform, but once it was built, that was when I learned model kits are not toys and the idea to transform it was quickly abandoned lol.

That’s the RG Zeta. It’s such a hand grenade that I’m surprised you actually have it posed. I could barely stand mine up because everything moves the second you touch it.

Lol hand grenade it is.. I put it into this pose & left it as it is forever.

Around the same time I had the 1/72 VF-25S Armored on PO, but cancelled it soon after putting this Zeta together.

It would be quite some time before I touched another RG kit as I thought all RGs were like this Zeta.

The absurdity, ridiculousness yet awesomeness of a face transforming into a B.F.G.
