Is a regular Roy battroid inspiration enough? Haven't gotten around to building my strike yet, and I'm doing it as Hikaru's from the final scene of the movie.

thanks for post.. its really an inspiration!

can you tell me how long where you able to finish this beauty? is it sloppy to hold when finished? sorry im new to hasegawa kits.. im always into bandai kits.

IIRC these kits are pretty much snap fit just like the Bandai Gundam kits. I've only built the Hasegawa VF-0S Battroid so far and the joints were not overly loose or floppy.

I wouldn't call it sloppy... when the strike stuff does add weight to the arms and thats a bit of an issue. The mounting stubs are a bit weak and I broke one easily. The reality is that Hasegawa kits aren't really designed in the same way as the Bandai ones; they aren't really meant to be handled and are more display pieces.

Nice job, I've yet to put together any of my Hasegawa Macross kits!. Did you use any of the decals for the black or yellow markings or did you paint those areas?

[Maiden Japan]

Awesome! Vf-1S looks evil with red goggle or more like TF Jetfire

I want to build the VF-1J (TV - MAX type), just where I can find decals?

Btw, very nice your build, and a fast one!!

black colors are painted, the yellow markings on the fins are painted, the chest are waterslide decals..i wish i painted it though.

sorry, is it a bad mistake? did you know i just use a permanent pentel pen red marker on that visor haha..i should have shaded it darker?

do i look like jetfire with "me grimlock sessium salami"?

[JET7]

what particular stands compatible with hasegawa?

can i use gundam stands? or is it to big for this?
