Hi, I'm a newbie here, so i dont know wether a topic as such was discussed.
I'm a diehard macross fan (well, erm...yeah.... I guess.) Recently I took the first step in getting my Macross valks, and trying to make a collection out of it. I started with some 1/60s which was the VF-1As and VF-1S, and further in 1 of my 1/48 VF-1A hikaru and a strike/fast pack set.
Now I am in a dilemma, as to whether to complete my 1/60 then go for the 1/48, ot just jump into the 1/48 line.
The 1/60 is a excellent line, and i love my VT-1 and VE-1 the most, but soon after some transformation, the die cast part starts to chip off, leaving a rather irritating sign on the valks. (Only VF-1S Roy, because the other 1/60 is still MIB due to lack of displaying space).
Now, I'm planing to collect the 1/60 VF-1J Max and Miria, but the chipping issue place a halt in my plans.
I have 1 1/48 VF-1A, which IMO is really good and detailed, and the chipping issue doesnt seem to happen here. I'm pleased with the details and also the complete transformation, and the articulation is superb.
My question now; Should i discontinue the 1/60 collection and go for the 1/48 instead? due to the fact that 1/48 are kinda expensive and much harder to find than 1/60, I was thinking of getting the full line for 1/60, and only a few 1/48, just to make up a collection. Should I do that?? Or shoudl I just collect 1/48 instead?
I've already have my 1/72 macross plus collection, and my YF-19 is coming in soon. I got no issues with 1/72 so far
Sorry for the stupid dilemma question, but i really wanna hear what u guys think about this.
regards.
