geck Posted March 6, 2022 Posted March 6, 2022 I recently completed this. Fantastic kit and I feel they are superior to the 1/72 kits. Can't wait to tackle the Super versions! Quote
Big s Posted March 6, 2022 Posted March 6, 2022 Looks nice and filthy. She’s dirty in a good way Quote
Shawn Posted March 6, 2022 Posted March 6, 2022 I think 1/72 scale was always great for OLDER Macross kits..like from Imai, when they used larger/simpler parts. When Hasegawa actually made them with the correct amount of detail, the complexity went off the scales...the design was amazing,but the parts are just so damn small, they became too frustrating for me. The 1/48 scale removes all the stress on assembling the 1/72s...you have room to BREATHE. There is also an element of my old man eyes being able to see where the parts go too LOL That is a beautiful build, can't wait to see more from you!! Quote
pengbuzz Posted March 6, 2022 Posted March 6, 2022 I'd love to see them do a 1/48 Battroid kit, so we could have all three modes. Quote
derex3592 Posted March 8, 2022 Posted March 8, 2022 @geck Really great paint job on that! Can't wait to see more builds! Quote

Scale-wise, you wouldn't see much detail at the viewing distance it would represent. 14 minutes ago, derex3592 said: @geck Really great paint job on that! Can't wait to see more builds! That is pretty phenomenal! I'd love to see more squadron color builds myself! Edited March 8, 2022 by pengbuzz Quote
geck Posted March 18, 2022 Author Posted March 18, 2022 Thanks guys. Taking a break from Macross for now...but I just bought a few Hasegawa VF-25's and VF-31's and my Regult is getting lonely. Still not happy with the photos...so I need to work on that as well. Quote
Duymon Posted March 18, 2022 Posted March 18, 2022 beautiful model. I really do need to build mine *Cries in eternal backlog* Quote
