  1. Thanks for the comments. Yes, I know the seams are tough to get through. I tried handling these carefully since when I tried to push in some of the parts to close up the gaps, I ended up breaking some of the pieces, so I ended up just leaving the gaps in since I truly do bad at gluing pieces together already. As for the gold Q-Rau, I just wanted to see it made since I haven't seen a custom of it based on the MAc 7 episode.

  2. Well, since this post is about custom Valks. Here's three VF-19s I customized from the bootleg Bandai VF-19 Kai. Metallic gray VF-19, Copper VF-19 and faux-Mac Plus VF-19. I've painted each valk differently, acrylic paints, spray paints, etc. since I was testing out which technique woked for me best. Some came out fine (gray version) while some were iffy (white valk). But for less than $20, these knock-offs are good for customs.

  3. Well here's my posting of the first models I've ever put together, so forgive some of the shoddiness that comes with experimenting.

    I picked up the 1/144 Queadluun-Raus and tried painting them in the different colors I've seen them in: Macross TV, DYRL and Mac 7; though I had to take liberties with the paint schemes used.

    Here's the model of the Chlore gold Q-Rau from Mac 7, "Fleet of the strongest women" episode, Milia red Q-rau from DYRL, and the green Q-Rau from the t.v. series.

    Here's the illustrated versions.

  4. After checking out robotechmuseum.com, I noticed that during Anime Expo in Anaheim from July 1-4, 2005, they're having a Robotech Convention separately the same time around July 1-4, 2005.

    Here's the info. Robocon

  5. I don't really give a hub-bub if the VF-0 needed parts swapping instead of perfect transformation. Perfect transformation is fine if you actually PLAYED with the toys, but I just take the TOY out of the box and display it on a shelf or case. And through seeing the great collections of the MW members displayed in glass cases, it's not like the majority of the late 20ish or early 30ish people play with them either on a routine basis.
