I'll enjoy other people's pics and all the awesome custom work people like @sh9000 are doing.

And @sh9000's armored CF 1A is incredible. Agreed that Bandai should eventually do this one.

SH9000, great CF Armor. I alway wondered if they were all blue in 1982's SDF Macross.

Thanks @Slave IV, @ScrambledValkyrie, and @vlenhoff.  I’m thinking of working on a Blue Spartan or VF-1A Cavaliers next.

Not sure why anyone would consider pics of HMR collections in the HMR thread spam...but as you say, everyone is entitled to not checking out one of the best HMR collections around when in the HMR thread.

Pretty sweet looking! I admire your dedication! My lazy ass needs bandai to just release these from the factory because I don't have the patience to do it myself anymore. 

Thanks Slave IV!  Hoping to work on more custom HMR spam.  Lol.

Really?  Why?

I decided that I didn’t need them and I could use that money for other stuff.  I already have a Yamato pair in my detolf and another pair unopened so the Arcadia pair would have taken up space.

HMR Armored CF VF-1A.

And @sh9000 -- I'll just say that your collection is an inspiration to me, I'm impressed at the deals you find, and I really like where you're going with that custom CF armor. Looking forward to seeing it complete.

Thanks ScrambledValkyrie.  Much appreciated.

The CF Armor is getting there.

To the poor soul who keeps downvoting when I mention my HMR collection:  Merry Christmas.  May your collection grow.  One day your dreams will come true.

Successfully cancelled my PF VF-1J Max and Milia preorders at NY.

Almost $200 shipped.  I think I paid less shipped for each of my 5 Monsters.

Started painting the CF Armor but the baby woke up from a nap.  Will work on it some more later.

Great custom VF-1A Max, VF-1A Kakizaki, and Zentradi suit.  I’ve seen the guy’s videos and website and he does cool work.  The only thing that sticks out with the suit is the huge zipper.

Opened another VF-2SS and transformed it to Fighter mode going by what I remember of transforming the old model kit.  Not bad.

I just like the look of this updated fan poster.  I also think this TD 5491 Phenix Custom is funny.

Amazing work Xigfrid.  You have great talent and skill.

Wow for those prices of the Star Trek ships they’d better be in scale to one another.

Let's play photo hunt.... what are the differences?

Lovely pics.  Great lineups.

All beautiful!

VF-2SS and then the Dougram. But based on that timeline, you're missing the Xabungle and probably the Roundface and depending on how recent, the Timp. 

The VF-1S Messer would be missing as well.

Looks good!

Thanks Slave IV.

I like the look of it with Strike Parts.

Opened my VF-1S and painted the purple areas on the chest black.  I’ll see how mine looks with Strike Parts later.

I think so - here's the full picture for a proper look:

And being usurped by the VF2...

Yep, nice pics @Acteon!

I didn't even register that it was the Super Pack that was making it look extra badass until it was mentioned. 

Looks cool.

Seeing all of these Eaglemoss Star Trek ships made me check out different sites about them as I’m still a Star Trek fan.  The ships are cool and it’s impressive that so many from different series have been released.  It would be even cooler if the majority were in scale to one another.

I think I might just skip paying for my preorders of PF Max and Milia.

Nice! I was very happy when I finally got mine  

Yep, one of my favorites too. The Armor is incredibly good. 

Yeah I imagine an HMR Armored VF-25S, Armored VF-11B, and VF-0S with Reactive Armor to also be good.

Good luck finding one, sir! sh9000 already bought all of them.

 

Nah not all of them.    There was one on Mandarake recently that was going for an ok price.

Got a few items.

Merry Christmas to me! I finally got my hands on some VF-1 armored goodness. (And my CF is wondering how he can get his hands on some too. )

Congrats ScrambledValkyrie.  That’s one of my favorites.  I think you’ll find the armor to be quite nice.

I hope their 6” figure line becomes successful or Bandai steps in and makes their own.  I just want as many characters from SDFM and DYRL in 6” scale.

I finally opened my HMR VF-1S Messer...really nice all around. tight but not scary joints, paint is a bit sloppy on on part of the left leg. Good piece and will make a nice desk Valk to mess around with more often than my others.

I haven’t opened my spare but it does have an extra blue speck at the head that can be scraped off.  I still plan on painting over parts of the chest black.

Agreed, I really like the Messer deco. Granted not everyone seems to like it, but I think it brings a modern sensibility to the design.

Makes for nice pics too (though I was still finding my way with these shots!)

Nice pics.  It looks kind of cool with Fast Packs.
