The box arrived today, pics coming soon. But here's a quick sprue breakdown:
Based on the sprue codes, its the wings of the VF-0D with a single seater nose. The munitions are from the VF-0A/B w/Ghost. So from a "limited edition" standpoint, the decals are the premium item. The squadron markings are from the "SLV-III Daedalus"
More later.
I don't use a compressor, I have a 20 lb Co2 tank, and its the bomb. They usually work on tank-exchange plan (like propane), and last for ages. Whisper silent, don't need a moisture trap.
Scuba tanks are another option.

I have the old 1/72 resin kit by Club-M, its pretty nice. It comes with FAST packs, rocket boosters, and a bunch of white metal parts to show open maintenance panels.
But a Hasegawa level of detail kit would be sweet!

Got mine today, the kit is beautiful. I'm already planning color schemes.
BTW, thanks for the recycled packing material. I would rather have used newspaper than a bunch of evil styrofoam peanuts.
Besides, now I know how celebrity moms adjust to their brand new lives!
Thanks again guys!

Weird, I actually had a dream last night that involved the booster.
It was a diorama with a missle-silo styled launch rail, with the valk w/booster sitting below ground level, pointed straight up. As a cutaway display that could pretty neat. Can you tell I'm looking forward to this?
