RDX17

So glad to see another HMR release announced. It's not a Tomahawk, but at least the line is still alive...and that keeps the hope alive as well.

It was the idea of the Tomahawk that provoked me to start collecting the HMRs...along with Jenius' video reviews of the line. Glad that I was able to pick up some other cool Macross HMR items, but I'm definitely going to be bummed if there's no Tomahawk.

So cool! And even cooler! ^ This is the movie I want to see.

:)

These are all awesome. The filter/animation makes me of Richard Linklater's movie adaptation of Philip K. Dick's 'A Scanner Darkly'.

This is brilliant, although I feel like the HMR train should be under maintenance or being inspected. :)

Sounds like it's going to be a long summer of waiting for those of us solely on the Hi-Metal R Macross train.

Yeah, I agree actually...Misa is the one. I find that having the Fastpacks on also helps hide the orange issue. Congrats on your new Max as well!

^VT-1 without the Super Parts, and with the wrong lady friend! Very disappointing.

I just finished removing the fuselage, disassembling it, cleaning off the excess glue and/or plastic nubs, and then reassembling it. Difficult and frustrating at times, but the gaps are gone and the fuselage is now locked in where it should be. Even more respect for the people putting these things together for us, and thanks to everyone here who has shared their past projects, particularly sh9000: seeing your separated VF-1D fuselage inspired me to give this a shot.

Yeah, I'm wondering if I can remove the fuselage without any serious damage, clean up the connection, and give her a tighter fit. Thanks!

I've been trying to close this gap behind the cockpit and the body/chest plate without success. I think the real issue is how the cockpit/nose of the plane is attached. I'm basing this on that visible space beneath the pilot in the backseat. Looks like it wasn't pushed all the way back before the glue(?) set. Is it possible to remove the cockpit/nose of the plane and reattach it more snugly? Any thoughts or suggestions on how to fix this are appreciated. Thanks!

^Looks great!

Right on! Thanks for the additional information.

Right there with you!
