I like that they give lil peeps with these kits.

Never a fan of this Macross hotrod Transformer, but I'm really curious to see all the side by side comparisons with all the different takes of it out this year.

Displayed during SMILE FEST 2024 Osaka.

[Urashiman]

duh ... no release date yet, and no pricing, but it looks fancy.

[Bolt]

As much as i like M7 and Basura, this is an easy pass for me. But I will say , it looks really good and well proportioned. And the Basura figure is cool.

It’s up for preorder along with the figure kits at the usual spots

Kinda surprised to see it listed at bbts

PlaMax is knocking it out of the park with these sculpts.

Amazing!

[Shawn]

That really does look amazing. And with the larger VF-19 size it isn't super small like the the VF-1s at 1/72
Very impressed!

Not yet, but probably soon

Okay, I got mine yesterday.

It has an estimated gazillions runners. This is more intimidating than a Master Grade Gundam.

No water slide decals :S

Flabbergasting 133 steps instructions.

BUT: it is all really nicely laid out. One could probably co-build this. Like arms and legs are just mirrored. Would be fun to sit with the kit and the kid, snapping parts together.

Have fun with it

Not a big deal about the stickers since it's mostly color corrections which should be painted anyway. But the lightning bolts on the head could be a pain.

I'm disappointed there's no caution markings/stenciling.
