vladykins Posted September 3, 2022 Posted September 3, 2022 Despite the fact that I have the HM version (with the super parts on the Messer Memorial instead) and the DYRL gray release, I still talked myself into one of these. I also already had an extra set of super parts from somewhere I had thrown on a VF-1D to get that classic ARII model action: Quote
sh9000 Posted September 3, 2022 Posted September 3, 2022 For anyone replacing all of the grey parts on the M&M Super Parts with those from the Hikaru Super Parts, don't forget the grey area on the outer leg armor. I painted them for Max and Milia. Quote
Chronocidal Posted September 4, 2022 Posted September 4, 2022 I'm less interested in repainting or stripping anything permanently, so I probably wouldn't touch that part, but I might have two copies of each. Or maybe I'll just print myself a couple to work on. 🤔 Quote
sh9000 Posted September 4, 2022 Posted September 4, 2022 The Hikaru Super Parts will look good with a CF and VF-1J Hikaru as well. I have spares of Max and Milia so one set with darker grey goggles and the bottom portion of the outer leg armor painted blue and red accordingly works for me. Quote

Drad Posted September 5, 2022 Posted September 5, 2022 Hopefully we'll see a TV Roy VF-1S at some point. I'd be down for that. Quote
jenius Posted September 5, 2022 Posted September 5, 2022 They should have just included birth pilot figures. Quote
Drad Posted September 5, 2022 Posted September 5, 2022 True but then they couldn't sell us the same toy twice. Quote
ScrambledValkyrie Posted November 19, 2022 Posted November 19, 2022 That artwork is stunning! I'd love to have a print of that. Quote

jvmacross Posted November 19, 2022 Author Posted November 19, 2022 Wonder if we'll get "revival" versions of the M&M Super -1J's with corrected TV armor parts? I'd bite... Quote

sh9000 Posted February 17, 2023 Posted February 17, 2023 2 of the easiest conversions for me using this TV VF-1S and an HMR VF-1S Roy will be a white DYRL VF-1S and a TV low vis VF-1S. I'll use the white DYRL hands from the HM VF-1S Roy or HMR VF-1S Messer. Quote

VF-1S TV Hikaru. VF-1S TV Roy. White VF-1S DYRL Roy. VF-1S Armored Valkyrie. 1 to keep in Fighter mode or sell. Spare TV arm armor for Max and Milia and spare Super Parts sets for my CFs. Quote
Froy Posted February 21, 2023 Posted February 21, 2023 From a video review on YT. Seems this are becoming a thing after the VF-0S Quote
jvmacross Posted February 21, 2023 Author Posted February 21, 2023 Hobby Genki delivered... Will open the box with the least damage...this one is near perfect...small corner dings on the back Quote
Froy Posted February 21, 2023 Posted February 21, 2023 Is this the stand compatible with the Hi Metals? https://www.hlj.com/tamashii-stage-act-mechanics-set-of-2-bans56788?utm_medium=email&utm_source=transactional&utm_campaign=OrderConfirmation I was lucky to get the last set. Hope it wasn't a mistake lol Quote
