It might be tough to get the legs to collapse for tank mode. That’s probably why it looks so chunky. The gun is way undersized as well. In robot mode the legs look a bit clunky and thick. They could add a few millimeters in length to make them look slimmer and have then telescope to tuck in better during tank mode. For being the first rendition in decades they aren’t too bad of a job here, but not too well either. -
So after sitting the DX into the 1/6 cockpit I thought it would be fitting to place the 1/6 pilot through the DX Battroid ingress. He almost fit...:)

Looks good... from a distance.

Well when you think about it, if Bandai states the DX as the successor of the 1/55 then there is no comparison it passing of the torach scenario. The 1/55 is made with older technology and to compare it the new DX and the CAD and 3D rendering available nowadays is a bit of a stretch and quite ridiculous. It’s like comparing an older Cadillac to a newer version of it. While the styling is great for its time and the people who lived through it, it would be the new Cadillac that will appeal to the newer generation and create a whole new sensation of nostalgia. The DX is good no doubt about it, but so is the 1/55 in it’s own right. Personally, the 1/55 still holds strong monetary and emotional value for me. The new DX will only be validated with time if it will stand as the true new VF-1 king.

I do feel for you guys. As I am affected as well.

Honestly, this picture has been regurgitated so many times that it irritates me how Bandai has been so extremely slow to finish the primary 5 Siegfrieds from Delta. C’mon Bandai just sell it already and end my OCD to complete everything. ;P
-
You’re a good man (collector). I have the same feeling about Max and Miria. They should always be a pair.

Yep. You can also look into the Bandai SD Eraser. Only two sets were ever released. Here they are with and SD Makurosu. Or you can always customize the JM series. They are easy to disassemble and create the version you like.
-
Me too. That will surely be a nice addition. I previously purchased the M&M set for cheap. They are totally worth the price.
-
It’s totally cool! I truly like what you did with it.
-
Those SD are like jenius has done, giveaways. Seek the JMs they are much nicer and more cute.

He can’t figure out where the “on” switch is... or does he?

Hikaru choosing his favorite mode.

I was messing with my 1J earlier today and wondered if the gunpod can be stowed in reverse into the forearms. Well it can’t. I truly hope Bandai will make an improvement on this to allow the DYRL valkyries the capability to do so. I always remember back when Max in his 1A fires into the face of the Zentradi he rips out of his N-Ger. It sure would make an awesome way to display him if he should ever be released.

Ahem...there is clear base underneath. ped·es·tal /ˈpedəstl/ noun 1. the base or support on which a statue, obelisk, or column is mounted.

Those look great Spanner.

You can try taping off the areas but unfortunately the developer does deep underneath it. I have read that you can add oxyclean powder to create a paste to brush it on. The oxyclean won’t make it better it just to make it a paste. Just place it in a plastic tub and use food seal plastic wrap to cover the top and allow exposure to sunlight or UV lighting.

YF-19 Bandai Macross Plus Advance Variable Fighter Review
nightmareB4macross replied to mustang1's topic in Macross Reviews
That was a great review. My only critic would be the background. While I myself do like Supergirl it was a bit distracting. -
Just heed the warning of using it on the colored plastics. I bought some developer of the same concentration and tried to restore and old Takatoku GBP armour. It worked but unfortunately it turned the armour periwinkle. So I had to paint it to correct the color issue. Good luck. I really hope it works out for you.

Hey no3Ljm, The chest would lock better if the small grey detents toward the rear of the fuselage would protrude out just a little more. These detents actually lock the chest down without the armpit cavity fillers being needed. The rails used for the heat/chest shield are what locks around these parts. Hopefully Bandai revisits this and corrects the issue.
-
Nice pic dapro! Is your Miria yellowing or is that just the picture? *I just realized it is based on your thread to use developer as a possible solution. Good luck and post pictures. I really hope it works out.

Those OS Robot Hero figures are really nice. I picked up all three original seekers for my son. The quality and price are very good and match perfectly. I never realized they scaled so well.

I apologize if I offended you but I never intended to put this in as someone specifically being in my crosshairs to any particular customizers preference and/or application. I just stated a preference. I enjoy seeing everyone's desicion to stylize their valkyries as they see fit. All I was stating was a fact. My sincerest apologies if you took it personally, I never meant it to be as such.
