Chronocidal Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 (edited) The work begins.. Of course the white stripes aren't missing from the black.. they're painted over it... so I might do the same, and just paint a white pinstripe the entire length of the wing. I don't feel too bad about modifying this thing... in fact, I'm tempted to strip both wings.. one of them has a big curly hair stuck under the tampo.

Agreed, both that @sh9000 did a nice job, and that stand-alone parts would be cool. I think I'm set on FAST packs at this point, but would love the GBP. I can't bring myself to get the armored VF-1J, given current prices and the fact that I already have Hikaru's 1J. I'm still hoping they eventually release that dark-colored armored VF-1A they teased a while back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Including TV arm armor along with DYRL arm armor in the Fast Pack set would be cool too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinzoku VF Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 (edited) Finally NY moved their asses. Received it today .Pre-ordered it when it was announced and they shipped it 10 days after release? Dissapointing....but whatever. On the other hand, I wasn't really looking forward to this release, bought mostly it for completion's sake and 35th Anniversary excuse, nothing else.... But was pleasantly surprised, it actually looks great! Not sure why, but the Bandai preview pics made it look kinda 'meh'. A weird piece which looks better irl than on pics somehow. Quick snap of mine with a 'soft-mod' it...(like all my other HMR VF-1S.....) Edited October 16, 2017 by Kinzoku VF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C'mon, guys... The figure looks great, but it's way too small for Hi-Metal R. Closer to 1:144th scale, actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locidm Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 He looks like he would fit the cockpits of glaug and regults nicely regardless of scale. The anime accurate scale makes it a tight squeeze. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
