Urashiman Posted August 28, 2021 Posted August 28, 2021 Hey everyone, I was browsing the internet last night in search for news on Macross kits and found this: https://www.shop2000.com.tw/GK-M/product/p17157810 Looks like someone kitbashed and scratch build a YF-29 from the bandai VF-25 and VF-27 and made it a mostly resin kit.

TMBounty_Hunter Posted August 28, 2021 Posted August 28, 2021 shop2000 is a bunch of scumbag recasters. The original kit is by Frameout Models Quote
Bolt Posted August 28, 2021 Posted August 28, 2021 I've seen those images before. Figured it was just another Wonderfest pipe dream. Quote

Yup from WF 2014-15 from Frameout Models. Haven't seen an original on YJA in years and the webshop has been closed for some time. FWIW I'm pretty sure the GKM recast doesn't require the Bandai kit if you go that route. I do know the conversion kit could (with a little bit or work.) Homes (http://inventive.web.fc2.com/index.html) did an amazing job modeling the kit and is one of the only few examples I know of outside of the resin kit.
