Couple of quick pics of my newly panel lined and decaled "Virgin Road" b4 she gets packed up in the box for a while....man, the red and blue color valks are a b*tch do do the panel lines on---also, really wished they would have included a "Just Married" Tail marking like I saw on a Hasagawa "Virgin Road". Would have added so much...... haha--and I totally forgot to detail the front gear....back to work...

110% of what he said! AWESOME!!!!

LOL... Yeah...that's what I figured...haven't had it out of the box in like a year, but it still bugs me. Thanks!

Slightly off topic, sorry, but I got a question....Has anybody tried to put the 1:48 GBP armor on a 1:48 VF-1S? I can't ever seem to get the top of the big chest piece to snap on all the way. Am i doing something wrong, or was it only intended to be on a VF-1J??? Any ideas? and I say looking at that pic the ver.2 wins from the waist down, but the 1:48 still wins from the waist UP!

Thanks for the pics Vi RS. I'm moving in 2 months and am on the hunt for glass curio cabinets to display ALL my toys in.....looking for something airtight and lockable if possible....IKEA stuff is nice and cheap, thought about going with Detolf's, but having second thoughts now....if you want glass on 3 or all 4 sides though...things get $$$ quick.... Anybody else got pics of cabinet ideas they wanna post???

True. They are accurate to the anime...just not my cup of Valkyrie.....

110% agree. The 1J M&M's look SO much better.

I'm really having trouble deciding if I want this or not...I've only got ONE 1:48 VF-1S and the GBP armor, but I also have the Strike armor for it. And I already have a 1:60 ver.2 VF-1J. So do I buy a 1:48 VF-1J?? or just bail on the 1:48's and get this??? Everything else I own is 1:60....... Lookin at those side by side comparison shots...still not hating the bulkiness of the 1:48.......

AGREED.

The 1D looks great! Love the overall "been put through hell" look you came out with!

Lookin KICK-ASS as usual Rabid!! Great Work... Gonna try to get around to my M&M's soon! p.s. Why did you paint the inside of the thrusters of the FP's red? Is that anime accurate or do you just like it???

niiiice....

PICS DUDE!!!!

I finally got YAMATOED...... :angry: My Virgin Road has the "cracked" look on the shiny coating on the canopy. The ONE CANOPY OF THEM ALL THAT NEEDS TO BE CLEAR!!! *SIGH* anyone around here actually received and successfully changed out a ver. 2 canopy???

Well, Merry Early Christmas to ME!! My 3 Valks came in the mail today from HLJ! WHOO-HOO...OHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhh wait. ! I finally got YAMATOED...... :angry: My Virgin Road has the "cracked" look on the shiny coating on the canopy. The ONE CANOPY OF THEM ALL THAT NEEDS TO BE CLEAR!!! *SIGH*........................oh well, it's off to the replacement part thread for me I guess. On the other hand, my M&M 1J's are sweeeeeet. (1st 1:60 ver. 2 fast packs for me, WAY BIG improvement over the 1:48's IMHO). p.s. anyone around here actually received and successfully changed out a ver. 2 canopy???

VE-1 All the way! Just awesome, followed closely by the VF-11B..... honorable mention has to kinda be thrown to the Beagle Bikes as well..(no not Macross I know) but the engineering and coolness factor is just plain jaw dropping! Ohh, and the Toynmai BETA FIGHTER....finally got a Beta after only like what...25 yrs???LOL. Still a great toy.

My three Valks shipped today from HLJ. M&M 1J's + Virgin Road. Total out the door with EMS shipping...$350.50. Just for fun....I checked on OD and it would have come out to $464 and change...so I saved $114 with the HLJ sale...not bad......I guess....

LMFAO!!!!!!

Add on's are fine. Ground crews and ground vehicles are great! Water slide decals-great! PLEASE don't get Yamato thinking we would RE-buy a ver2.56789 with all these little extras....for all the BITCHING that goes on around here about the price of Valkeries, some of you should realize adding ALL those features to newer releases would push the price close to or over $200 a pop. That being said....WHERE ARE THE ENEMY MECHA!!!!!!!!????????

Got my Q-Rau yesterday! Pretty cool! you can tell it's an "older" Yamato build, not as tight as the v.2's but having said that...DAMN it's nice to have an enemy mecha!

I will NEVER-EVER buy another VF-1 again after this!!! HAHAhahahahaa--THAT is the BEST line EVER! Should be the slogan for MWF!!!!......... :lol:
