  1. I've never seen a Strike without the notched head lasers and I've been at this hobby a long time. I think it's likely that at some point one or more of the lasers on yours was broken or stress-marked and they were replaced with a set from a Bandai Jetfire. Bandai's 2002 VF-1S reissues have the notched lasers again if you wanted to pick one up and swap them out.

  3. Amazing work! How good are you at illustrating an armored VF-2SS and VF-19S? I've been considering having you do a piece with those two Valks and a Strike VF-1S back to back. Also, I loved your work with Antarctic Press on the Robotech books. I still have those issues as well as a page of original artwork from Covert Ops. Have you considered getting back into comics? Do you know if DC/Wildstorm still holds the comic license for Robotech?

    Thanks for the compliments! I am considering returning to a series as I get more "free" time. I'm not sure what the license arrangement is between Robotech and Wildstorm as far as if they have exclusive rights or if it is some other type of pact. Tommy Yune left WS to go to Harmony Gold to run Robotech just as I was starting work on a WS project, so it may be a working relationship type thing among past colleagues. I'm not sure.

    As far as the VF-2ss and Vf-19s - not a problem. pm me whenever you are ready.

    Some notes on your 1/55 list:

    - 02. 1J Hikaru TV - the Hikaru 1J Takatoku had 4 box variants regarding the shape of the front window area

    takatokuarticle.jpg

    - The French Hergoss Walkyrie HS-1S is missing from the list. This is a very high quality boot and was actually manufactured in Macau

    HERGOSS_vf-1S_FR1.jpg

    - On the Space Gandam, there are at least 3 box variants and I believe they are all Korean in make, not Matsushiro. If there is indeed a Matushiro Space Gandam, then there are 4 variants.

    - Space Gandam Version 1 has the Korean anime characters on the box

    STP61411.jpg

    - Space Gandam Version 2 has no characters

    space_gandam_variant1.jpg

    - Space Gandam Version 3 has no characters and "Manufactured for Clover Toys Inc. U.S.A." printed on the box front

    STP61412.jpg

    - 02. 1S Super Hikaru (Super Valkyrie) - White VF with true Blue Armor. Spain or Mexico - this one is a genuine Bandai release in "euro" market box, hence the Spanish and French

    STP61415.jpg

    - 05. 1S (Galaxy Defender) - Completely retooled, molded in blue and grey. Taiwan or Hong Kong - The Galaxy Defender is manufactured by Happy Well of hong Kong and in addition to the orange box shown earlier in this thread, there is this blue "Soldier Bear" box that was sold on US military bases around the world:

    STP61413.jpg

    - Need to add the 2007/2008 Bandai reissues of 1J Hikaru (now with heatshield), 1S Roy, Super 1A Hikaru and Super 1A Max
