  1. those are indeed brilliant but I am way to frightened to actually attempt fitting them to even my Arcadia example! so for me this won't ever happen..

    in that review it shows some clear plastic braces for the main cannons.. does that mean there might be a floppiness issue?

    just in time for me to get home from work, shower, change, make a coffee then sit and wait to pull the trigger!
  5. yeah will be interesting to see other variants and or modifications but a two seater I'd imagine would be a similar case to the VF-1D with only a slight lengthening of the cockpit to accommodate a second seat.. looking at the VF-4 design it doesn't really allow much room for a larger cockpit due to the transformation. Then again I could be wrong..
  6. im sure no one will admit to it but I'd say yeah its definitely happened!

    yeah he in Melbourne.. I think most of the sellers all do their own slightly different thing with postage charges.. some make more sense than others.
  8. it certainly looks good wielding a GU-11 (or two!) but it as in the picture posted wmkjr suggests, it definitely needs something specifically designed for it. Reeeaaalllyyy looking forward to seeing all the juicy pics in the master file! oh and sorry mate but as far as I can see the VF-4 can only hold one gun underslung..
  9. stunning photos as always Saburo! loving this Gerwalk shot! and yes those NY prices are rather cheekily high.. The 30 is a fine bit of kit but definitely not 45k material..

    it sure does have a sleek and sexy profile in fighter mode! indeed! still not sure how many im going to go for.. my son wants one but im not sure if I want only one or three myself!? one for each mode.. I guess it will depend on the 'per house' limit each store imposes..

    collecting is killing collecting! not just the shipping but everything is slowly becoming very expensive.. for many it will mean being a little more specific with what one chooses to collect. I guess im glad Macross is essentially my only collection hobby.

    NY charged me 6000yen for postage to Sydney Aus totalling 29080yen.. but i guess im not so fussed as i just want the bloody thing!

    comment removed.. Graham already pointed out what I had written..
  14. Awesome! its about time they got an upgrade! I was only wondering about their next choice of aircraft just the other week! They have been using their current 18's since the 1980's if im not mistaken yes?
  15. awesome! thanks man! I can't access it on the work computers so I'll check it out when I get home..

    as am I but sheesh it sure looks sh!te.. yuck! makes my skin crawl.. and im sure that slap together example in the photos IS just a pre-production/prototype what ever thing and the final product will be considerably more polished!
  17. I suppose so.. hey does anyone know of any good websites with good quality high resolution jet fighter photos, wallpapers etc etc? much appreciated!
  18. that's fantastic! great work Man! I haven't ever played this game other than watching my son play it but I never knew you could build such specific custom designs like that!

    I think I remember reading about it now.. my bump to my head has really knocked my memory around a bit.. sorry to bring up an old topic.. so yeah looks like I won't be displaying the VF-31 with its gear extended..

    sorry if this has been mentioned already but im not really liking the rear landing gear arrangement.. looks like they consolidated them with the knee cap covers which is fine if they were struggling for stowage space, "two birds with one stone" I get it, but when deployed they do look kinda crappy.. almost like an afterthought.. ahhh crap guys we forgot about the landing gear!
