Thom Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 (edited) That looks sexy sweet! I do have one that was bought on E(xpensive)Bay, that was supposedly a test shot for the instructions. I don't know what company. Still haven't taken it apart or put it back together yet. Edited June 5, 2011 by Thom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 The kit is based on the Hobby Base Repttu kit with new nosecone assembly/design, new panel lines throughout, cockpit, pilot as well as landing gears. I got one of the first run on ebay a few years back. Great kit! But I thought it was based on the Musasiya kit, not the Retppu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valk009 Posted June 6, 2011 Author Share Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) Thanks for spotting the typo mistake Valkyrie, yes the kit was actually based off the Musasiya kit and not the Hobby Base Retppu kit, which I first stated but now already edited in the first post! Seems like I will have sufficient interest to start this kit, which should be ready within 2-3 weeks. I will give it few more days and then slowly start to contact all those interested parties!

Cesar Enrique Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Hi. Could you sell to me just a canopy? I have one of this kits, but canopy was badly damaged so I haven`t started this kit just for that reason, also, if you are willing, I would like to buy some other parts that are broken on my kit. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PetarB Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Hi Mommar, you might find this thread useful, as it also documents the build up of the kit advertised above: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=23639 I should really get another one. I had another, but I sold it, and I have an idea for a new colour scheme I'd really like to do.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a model builder or else I'd go in for one of these but I highly support anybody else on this board getting these kits, painting (or decaling) them up and taking photos so that I can live vicariously.

Hi Mommar. I made my own decals for this one. The decals you see on my build are NOT supplied with this kit. I just wanted to do something different. Sorry for any confusion.

Thom Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 (edited) Good question, i want a extra decal and a extra canopy too. And also too!! And I will say, Valk009, that you seem to have struck a lively nerve... Edited June 9, 2011 by Thom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valk009 Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 Due to several request, all kits will be supplied with two clear vacuum formed canopies! As with the decals you see on the light blue Minmay themed VF-4, well that is all PetarB design. The standard kit will be supplied, well with standard decals, you know the usual kite flag insigna, UN Spacey writing, skull logo and the rest of misc decals.

PetarB Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Sorry Valk009 for any confusion, I just wanted people to see this kit builds up nicely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jefuemon Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Sometimes, non-cannon is the way to go original Musashiya kit, or else I'd seriously be thinking about picking up one of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
