I'm guessing 1:48 based on the ejection seat and cockpit.

You got it right bro! 1/48

Looks awesome 👍🏼

Size comparison alongside with Bandai DX VF-1S..

That is looking sick so far, love it.

Playing around without arms and legs hehehe X.x

I am really liking it, and am curious to see how your fold those wings in battroid mode.

Thanks man, appreciated and motivated me to continue build four more type of VF. Here is how the wings fold when in battroid mode or storage mode, detachable wings for fast super packs or attachment on wings itself.

Glad to provide the motivation, looking awesome.

I love that wing engineering, very clever way to handle that! 

[ImChris5115]

[Knight26]

That knee joint is amazing, are you planning any kind of retractable covering for it to simulate the intake duct?

This whole design is amazing.

[MKT]

Looking better and better with each update! 

[Bolt]

Superb! I'm sold ..

This project reminds me of the guys who build those 1/40 scale Gundams from scratch. The work you are doing is amazing, the number of tiny pins I am seeing is just amazing.

Quite the handy update.  Love it.

Bad Ass, Absolutely Bad Ass!!!!

I am curious as to how big this will be when it is complete.  Were you aiming for a specific scale?  Great work, I cannot wait to see the completed figure!

He's going for 1:48 scale.  About the size of 1:48 VF-1, IIRC.

Thanks for telling me! I wish that we could get transformable Valkyries with this level of polish and detail without costing $1000.

slow progressing....

[mechaninac]

Just amazing, quite literally one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time.  And do I detect a slight VF-5000 Star Mirage fighter mode inspired -- infinitely more intricate and polished and contemporary -- design lineage, intentional or not, with this awesome bird of prey?
