Hmmm. The movie quality was poor...

You'd better watch this one.

That was much better, it felt as though I was talking a virtual walk through of the showroom. Thanks antibiotictab.

Thanks man, but I don't have a centralized album, I do have a few albums in my MW gallery, just recent stuff.

Here is a few more fighter mode pics:

Those are great shot Swoosh! I like how you added the grey to the 19.

Thanks, your Flickr album is amazing!!

Thanks Swoosh! I have been trying to take more photos, I still have to take pics of the rest of my Valks.

This is Animation Special

Great shot!

Great pic. Have you noticed that the hips, biceps and that piece under the uniboob are a bit mistransformed?

Shield and gunpod too.

I noticed mistransformation after I had taken the the pictures.

I was just glad to have gotten it to that point without breaking anything. I'll retake photos tomorrow.

Took my time transforming my YF-19 and snapped a few shots.

I have processed one so far, maybe I'll post a few more later. Enjoy!

(updated image, mistransformation fixed. )

Modeled a 2-axis joint, and sourced some "final" hardware:

This gets better and better every time you post. Mass manufacturing the arms and base adapter would be much easier and cost effective.

Already printing a piece. I have to sleep sometimes, it is thing I do.

Edit:

Those are great! I'd buy just the arms too. It must be like Christmas Day every day for you. Setup piece to print, wake up and there it is.

Hello from Tamashii Nations Akiba Showroom.

Thank you for the video.

*snip*

That's a great pic, man.

Thanks Mommar! I'll take more photos this weekend.

My YF-19 arrived from Hobby Search, everything appears to ok.

Sorry guys, I've been out. Amiami offered to pay back only the price of the item via Paypal dispute. Should I go for the full amount? I don't mind paying to ship back but I think they owe me it all.

Glad you got a better resolution from Ami Ami, than what was initially offered in the email.

I'll pick up one or maybe 2...

Just got notification that my YF-19 will be delivered today. I am hoping it arrives with out any issues.

I really like that idea. I just need to come up with that detail. Best case scenario would be one design that works for all of the different era's of valks.

Cool, looking forward to what you come up with.

There are many different colors of filament I could print it in, too.

Edit: I misread that. I thought you said black.

That is the problem. These won't be cheap if I print them on my machine and sell them. I am thinking about doing a limited run sale on the site. We'll see what the reaction is to the price. If enough people bite, maybe I can drop the price on subsequent runs. The issue is I do this stuff professonially. Charging what I invoice a client for a rapid prototype...well you might as well buy up some Yamato VF-4's while you are at it. Stay tuned. I will try and figure something out within a week.

What about something like generic/blank or launch deck elevator as the base of the stand? Its pretty basic and it will be should able to go through manufacturing with without any legal issues.

Like this but smaller for the base of the stand.

I've been going back and forth on that actually. I don't think I will be able to get these manufactured in any manner save a shady one. I may do limited runs and just sell them through here. We will see. I will have to figure out a fair price.

A blank stand would be great too. Your design takes up far less space and it's more versatile for posing compared to the Bandai stand.

It would not be difficult.

Edit:

Great Job on the design, you are awesome ChaoticYeti! Once you figure out manufacturing them, put me on the list for purchase.

I am working on it.

I can't help but stare... this is awesome! Consider it sold!

I am sorry to read what happened and hope you are able to get replacements. Seeing the pics from Mommar and Kicker773 are painful to look at... I am waiting for my mine to arrive. *crosses fingers*

davidwhangchoi, thanks for the photos and nice Dendrobium you have in the background.

Did the re-issue of the VF-25F go up on NY? I check their site an nothing listed, other than current stock.

I am interested in purchasing the Yamato/Arcadia version and if you decide to make a Bandai compatible version, I would be definitely be purchasing those. My Bandai Valks out number my Yamato/Arcadia Valks.

Looking forward to seeing updates on this awesome project.

I didn't have a plan too, but it would be easy enough.

I didn't think about at first and realized the stands are designed for Yamato/Arcadia Valks. I think the stands are awesome, would you consider a version for Bandai DX Chogokin Valks too?

Thank you.

These stands are great!! Would you also considered making an S.M.S version also?
