Dry nice recollection. I am all in for the list as you’ve outlined it, but would add a VF-X TEST and possibly a Mechanical VF-1.
i do have one question though, what if the BLAZER SQUADRON?
I wholeheartedly agree with your statement.
And boy do I try finding these rare Valkyries and bootlegs alike. It’s hard dirty business nobody wants, but I don’t mind. 😜
These actually belong to a customizer named Ricky Mui out of Hong Kong. He’s very talented.
You can find him on the “1/55 VF-1 Valkyrie Museum and Archive” FB page.
I gotta admit they do stand in well. A little oversized but look good overall.
Anasazi’s gun is also a great alternative. I like sleeker no-scope look.
You might want to take it out and check the biceps. I opened this just to play with it and discovered both arms with damage at the double joint.
I was able to repair them but it was disappointing to discover this.
You might want to check.
