Man i wish bandai considers releasing a 1/48 TV Max after hikaru instead. 

Nice pics everyone, this thread always makes me want to splurge!

A 1/48 TV Max and Kakizaki (sorry, I think I legally have to call him, "Ben," here in the states :p) would just make for a quality triumvirate of old school goodness. It would be a single head mold and a color palate swap, but the nostalgia factor may make Bandai think it a worthy investment. GREAT pics, everyone! :good:

I am no longer satisfied with my expensive toys.  Lolicon has made my entire Macross collection look plain and unfinished.  :bigshok:

Oh, and speaking of unfinished, those Battroids need straps for their gunpods.  :p

Beautiful work as always Lolicon!  Glad you're taking up the mantel of improving these previously naked valks.

Thanks all! I've been wanting to dress them up for a long time, but only recently had more free time to do it. Also, I'm worried the TV whites will eventually fade and yellow like my first run Hikaru 1J, so I've been getting through them faster than normal. I'm hoping once they're done, the protection from air and sun will keep them white. :blink:

I've always wondered why Yamato put little holes for gunpod straps but never included them in the box. I'll have to look into getting some one of these days.

 @Lolicon your shots are great!  Man, now when I look at my Max and Hayao VF-1A it not as cool now. :lol:

Lol yours always look amazing when you photograph them. :)

Thanks Lolicon!  I'm glad I did the work on the VF-0S, trimming the stickers and panel lining it was tedious, but it turned out great...and I didn't have to pay Arcadia for a "PF".. <_<  I can't yet bring myself to panel line the 31A, because of it's rarity, but it would look killer. The Low Vis 31 was the 1:72 kit I got a few years back as a b-day present form the ex gf, I slapped it together with no paint and then looked at the sticker and decal sheets and was like ..umm..no!, so I went with a more real world scheme. B)) I've got a better pic somewhere, I'll see if I can dig it up.

Lolicon has inspired me to do a little panel-lining and detailing of my own...

Sure, my Valkyries will never look as good as Lolicon's, but at least I can claim to have the best-looking Legioss toys.  ^_^

Hey, they look pretty damn good to me! And as long as you're enjoying them, whether it's detailing or just posing or transforming them, it's all great. :D

Some additional pics as I set up my TV hero squadron on their permanent Yeti stands. :)

Dusting off the Valkyries and took a quick shot of the Armored 25s.

Fixed up my Miria 1J in preparation for the Max release this month. Staring at that red for so long made my eyes feel like :shok:
