You’ll need one of those rod attachments. Sold separately or comes with the Glaug or Missile Effect Part attachments. I don’t have my Missile Type Regults yet but it might come with that too.

derex3592 Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Got it... thanks... can't say it's very stable though... adapter needs to lock on to the Valk better... oh well.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m loving all of these additions to HMR that enhance the collection. What exactly are you refering to? Are these model kits or maybe 3D printed items you found online?

There's also a much shorter part with 5mm holes on both sides that comes with Bandai's new action bases, I'm using one of those on the stand of my Messer VF-1S to display in Battroid.

K, thanks, maybe the one I got is a molding flaw. I'm wary about trying to force it down, so I'll just wait for my second one to get here from HLJ and compare. If they both have the same issue, I'll start looking at chopping off that block of plastic keeping it from folding lower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no3Ljm Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Quick question, guys. How blue is Max VF-1J in person? Is it too bright and saturated? Is it leaning towards more magenta than cyan? Just in case anyone have any Metal Build 00 Gundam in their collections, can you post a pic together esp around the blue area of the Gundams just to have a gauge. Thanks in advance!

We've got the VF-1A Super Valkyrie in April, and HMR is releasing the Techroid Blader in May...so next Macross release in June (or later)?

sh9000 Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 My collection of HMR VF-1J Armored Valkyries. I bought another HMR VF-1J Armored Valkyrie and plan to paint the armor red and give it to Milia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowboy17 Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 a world of caution about those HMR stands. They are basically just tamashii stages. After time, the tension the male adapters exert on the female couplings on the extension rod causes them to crack slightly, and the extension will become loose and you will have shelf dives.

ScrambledValkyrie Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 @sh9000 - Those armored valks are looking sweet. Looking forward to seeing the red one for Milia.

borgified Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Is Bandai making up for the tiny Macross kites so they have to make a large one for the Elintseeker so that the Meltron/Zeltron forces can shoot them down first? I admit that the battroid mode looks weird on the VE-1, however the gerwalk version makes it more interesting. Waiting for the VF-2ss to be delivered from Manda so I can fiddle with it upon arrival (shipped via SAL last week). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Focslain Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 So got my first HM-R in a second hand VF2SS from @aaajin, he was nice enough to give me an Action Base as well. Now I have a question, what base is suggested to mount the mini gunpods this thing comes with? Also later I'm going to try to mount this thing in fighter mode, am I going to have issues and if so once again, what stand would be best for these HM-R Valks since I'm planning on getting Mirage later.

Mini Gunpods? You meant the Squires? Those bit/funnel looking things? If it is, you can use the Tamashii Stage Act Trident Plus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
