    it did actually! When I first saw it before release I thought.. what the hell is that!? but now I have grown quite attached to it! Im glad its part of my collection and I display it proudly! And if I didn't already have one I'd certainly buy one now!

    Nice display!

    Still sure that the 27 is my favorite Frontier Valk! No drawn blood for me though.. then again I don't ever handle most of my Valks which automatically reduces the possibility of injury! Nice angle Gakken! Makes good use of the more vertical space in a Detolf eh! Looks awesome!

    yikes! a bit of damage done there.. so you actually bent the landing gear bit too! I presume that's why the gear door won't shut now? Its also disappointing that those pegs on the legs get all scratched up too..

    Perfect!!! Now to somehow get this over to Saburo for pics!

    Hmmm.. I wonder which Valk would go well with Yurisha!?

    Ah ok cool, to be honest i cant really remember the weight of my old v1 lot as its been years since i off loaded them but i wouldn't have thought there was that much in it. But yeah i can see how a little weight can make something feel a bit more substantiaL. (Just not in my women!) Id say then the older v1 felt more like a Bandai valk. Yes the v2 are a little light but i rather like how they feel! They are a lot smaller than other Valks afterall.. but still quite solid and a pleasure to handle!

    Cool little figures JV!

    Minty fresh! But seriously has it ever been out of the box!? J's are the best eh! Hikaru's 1/60 TV VF-1J is currently my all time fav but i think that'll be challenged when Max & Milia's J's turn up!

    It looks friggin sweet all kitted up with SS parts eh! I did a quick test fit to see what it was like before I settled with fitting them to my Cavaliers! I ordered two of the GBP-1J sets so I can dress up the TV brownie in GBP parts! Tiz gonna look the bollocks!! =D

    Indeed yes the darker ones look better! Ranka's "cute as a button" factor is simply staggering!!

    @anubis20 well done on finding yourself a 19P! they are the cream of the crop as far as the 19 bunch go in my opinion!
  19. spanner
    that's one fantastic looking Megatron!!

    Yeah that lower section is a pain to keep aligned properly and I reckon the gun looks better with it closed anyways! @Valkyrie Driver.. I found using the clear nail polish a relatively limited solution.. it doesn't seem to be quite hard enough and wears out too quickly. Automotive 2K clear with a proper hardener is much better but not as accessible to many as others. Dries rock hard but u gotta be careful using it.

    ok so while we are showing off some cool Alto poses I thought I'd join in! This is the best I can do with Alto. I don't particularly find him very interesting to pose funny enough..
  22. spanner
    That's a good idea! I have done this myself and I think it helps things looks a better organized. Although the only ones which kinda look out of place are my M-Zero stuff which are currently mixed in with my M7 stuff.. But now I will have to get a few more cabinets for each separate lot to allow for expansion and reduce congestion! The Frontier Valks do look a lot more toned or athletic don't you think!?

    but don't over do it! those ball joints only get a certain amount of useful mileage before they go kaput!

    She has a few sharp tips yes! I had my first blood drawing incident over the weekend when messing about with the one in fighter mode.. punctured my left thumb with the right hand side vertical stabilizer tip and slightly bent the tip too.. I was able to straighten it 99% back but the plastic slightly stressed and I don't want to push my luck with it. Some joints are pretty crazy tight! The upper leg (Gerwalk) joint in particular.. makes shifting modes a little scary when you have to use more force than you are comfortable with. Having one in each mode means I will never attempt another transformation with them... EVER! Articulation is good but also hampered in some modes.. Especially Battroid. The bigger wings get in the way restricting leg movement further back and I don't like how the ankle joints don't seem to move as far forward as the do backwards. I thought that maybe the ankle joints were still over tight being so new but I think im wrong about that.. Definitely enjoying having them too! And glad I can display one in each mode making excessive transformations to different modes completely unnecessary!

    great pose! looks like he's using the gunpod as a police baton!
