jvmacross Posted August 15, 2020 Posted August 15, 2020 I can't wait to get this. It will go well with 1/100 HMR and the 1/72 CalWings stuff....hoping the 1/60 Yamato looks good on it too At 1/72 it will also go great with the 1/72 BLACK ACES MAC Z TOMCAT SHIN SPECIAL! Quote
Slave IV Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 I’d like to know the price but will probably get one either way. It will give me a decent reason to display at least one Valk sitting on its landing gears, haha. Quote
Dobber Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 Ok....I give them props for the added sound. That was pretty cool. Maybe a warning horn before hand would be perfect. scared at what this thing will cost. Chris Quote
jvmacross Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 Guessing $150 or so....been waiting for something like this for years.....and the bonus is that it's a NOT-Macross elevator from the NOT-Prometheus! LOL Quote
sharky Posted August 18, 2020 Posted August 18, 2020 Does anyone know roughly when this is supposed to be released? Should I expect it to be sold at Flying Mule or maybe BBTS? Quote
jvmacross Posted August 25, 2020 Posted August 25, 2020 Can't wait to park my MacZ on the Not-Macross elevator! Quote

jvmacross Posted September 18, 2020 Posted September 18, 2020 I hope Calibre Wings considers using the "Macross" color pallette for the upcoming NOT-MACROSS aircraft carrier elevator diorama.... ....or they can just release a separate limited edition "anime" version! Quote
arbit Posted September 18, 2020 Posted September 18, 2020 Having built my own RC 1/72 Elevator diorama, I can say this is a very reasonable price. Quote

sumyumgoy Posted September 21, 2020 Posted September 21, 2020 Pre-orders are up at Big Bad Toy Store: https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/136428?utm_source=Marketing&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=marketing&utm_content= Quote
Roy Focker Posted September 21, 2020 Posted September 21, 2020 It's cool but it just a high-tech display for 1 model. I wonder how much a non-electric hand crank version would cost? At $170 I just think that money could be used instead on just buying another Valkyrie. On the other hand I do think it would make a great gift choice for your friends and family who knows that you collect model/toy planes but don't know which plane to get you. It's a safe but impressive gift to give to a collectors that you know. Quote

If you have a 3D printer, you can purchase the files, print, build and paint how you like: https://www.facebook.com/groups/massassiorder/ This is the person who created the design that Calibre is using.

Angesdad Posted September 21, 2020 Posted September 21, 2020 Now they just need to make one for 1/48 Bandai DX Valks! Quote

Knight26 Posted September 21, 2020 Posted September 21, 2020 I'm trying to decide what they're advertising that it fits 1:60 MACROSS toys means in the greater sense, especially after the their Macross-Zero F-14 slap down from BW. Are they thumbing their nose at BW or HG? Quote
sh9000 Posted September 21, 2020 Author Posted September 21, 2020 I’ll order it from The Flying Mule and try it out with my HMR VF-1, VF-4, VF-2SS, HM VF-19, and VF100 VF-25. Quote

I've never pre-ordered anything by Calibre Wings, is it usually better through The Flying Mule? Quote
