Definitely do like this in battriod mode inside the hanger @Saburo. 

Hopefully that I'll get at least two of the Fext Hobby Sci-Fi 03 sets when this world wide situation is completely over (still haven't even ordered it when the announcement was made). 

Thank you @borgified!  Its pretty crazy times for all of us, I am sure that there will be a remedy and things will get back to normal.  My hope is that shipping will slowly ramp back up. 

I look forward to seeing your photos with the Sci-Fi 03 setup.

Beautiful @Saburo!  I almost forgot what it looked like in any other mode other than the aircraft which is what I have mine displayed in.  I do like the Gerwalk mode very much in this design.

Thank you @wm cheng, I had forgotten what fighter mode looks like.  I have had mine displayed as Battroid since I did the photo set when the Lill Draken were release so many years ago.  I usually display in fighter but this is the one I didn't feel like transforming back because its a pain to do.   I am sure I will watch @jenius video when I eventually put it back to fighter. 

The Sv-262 gerwalk mode is awesome its so compact looking compared to the other valks.

The navy blue with gold accents brings out the Regal design of the Sv-262Hs.

I guess this pic goes with yours.  Just picked up Hikaru, actually.

Nice that goes well!

On a side note: it always bothered me that Roy's shoulder pads were drooping.

I hope Bandai take a cue from Yamato and makes Max's VF-1S, so we can have this trio of VF-1Ss.

Which is your favorite VF-1S?

Here's one that @wmkjr posted on March 1.

 

Which brings up this question: @Saburo - I remember that you had a pic with the DX Max's 1a with the DX SSP set. I take it that's it been removed as I can't seem to find it anymore.

 

 

@borgified, sorry that wasn't me.  I had it on my list to take pics of the Max VF-1A with SSP but never got that chance to take pics.  Now that I have lots of time on my hands, I'll see about getting to it.

what are those orange mechs?

The loaders/utility mechs are made by Mech Fan Toys and Rihio that are designed to go work with the Diaclone line but fit nicely with 1/60 scale Valks.

Great work @EastwindS2k!

Of the many 1/60's I didn't get back in the Yamato days was the Angel Bird, a definite regret. Oh well, I'll have to live vicariously through @Lolicon pics! 

@Saburo Great shots, every time I tell myself I'm not a big fan of the YF-29's I see your pics... must resist buying a Roy version! 

 

Thank you @505thAirborne!  Well one day, if you decide to add a YF-29 to your collection, the Roy version is one of the more reasonably priced.

One day I'd like to get close to your level of photo taking. 

I am sure you will surpass me, your shots are great.  Keep it up!

LOL! Yeah, camera phones are getting better and better too. I still prefer the old tripod and Mirrorless DSLR though.

I agree camera phones are definitely getting better.  I'll stick to DSLR, can't beat the the large image sensor.

I received an EMS package last week that was shipped on April 2 and arrived April 16.  But I also have another EMS package that shipped April 4 and is still in Japan.

Thank you @sumyumgoy for the info, I figured there would be a delay. I have a package that shipped on the 17th and it still in Japan.
