Slave IV Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I'm not good with colors. Is the only detail to make a Max 1S changing the stripe on the chest to blue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're using Hikaru's you have to repaint the heatshield to black first. From Macross Mecha Manual.

sh9000 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 (edited) Blue chest stripe, leg fins, leg circles, tail fins, triangles on shoulders, and Max's helmet. I forgot if the circle on the backpack is blue as well. I would have to double check. Edited April 12, 2017 by sh9000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no3Ljm Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 From Jenius' Anymoon pictures: As for the round thing on the backpack, it's blue based on the video I found on YouTube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loop Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 (edited) I know right, this is one of the times where I feel like the unit number Tampo is a bad thing. I have a bunch of multiples in this series but want them all to have different modex/unit identifiers. I can't complain though as it's a great thing to have, especially if you are in to buying singles. Edited April 13, 2017 by Loop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If other collectors are also holding out on those AmiAmi Monster's....then I think we should see some further discounts on them sometime before EOY....so keep a watchful eye... They are at 15,800 now.... http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?scode=FIGURE-017242 ....or you can get one mint inside a not-so-pristine box right now? 13,600 JPY 49% off! http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?scode=FIGURE-017242-D001 The only issue with AmiAmi is the shipping cost for the Monster....think it is 60+ USD...

If the Monster is above 2kg, I think AmiAmi doesn't ship it using SAL option. So it's going to be EMS below Y5900. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep.....the price would not affect the shipping cost...same cost between the minty one and the not-so-minty one....if you go for it, let us know what the total was.....that would probably be the max limit of what I would want to pay for any additional Monsters.....I am good with three for now, but that means one says MISB.....would really like three for a good diorama display....

Chronocidal Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 I'm debating ordering a bunch of Hikaru 1Js (assuming I even can), just to supply myself with more of the triple missile clusters. The CFs have them too, but they're molded in tan...or maybe it's time to shapeways some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh9000 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 (edited) For the Monster and CF VF-1A, EMS is 7020 JPY and SAL is 5920 JPY. I went ahead and ordered another Monster so I'll see how much shipping will be. Edited April 14, 2017 by sh9000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sh9000 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 (edited) Both Monsters came out to about $150 each, the CF VF-1A was $60, and EMS shipping was $70. Edited April 15, 2017 by sh9000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already have my Max outfitted this way, and plan to do the same with Milia, once she finally arrives (currently stuck in SAL shipping). It looks like you went the extra step of painting the lower part of the leg armor. I would have preferred it if Bandai had released them like this. But at least we can mix the parts around.

Yeah I also painted the goggles darker. Luckily I have extras so that I can still have the versions that Bandai released. It's good that parts can be swapped. I still would buy TV arm armor if Bandai or anybody were to make some. I will still try if I can transplant some from old super poseable Valkyries.
