  1. I will be interested in a set (left and right shoulder) too. Do you ship to Canada?
  2. Custom 1/48 with Extentable leading and trailing flap. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?...c=19980&hl= Build up of SHE vf-4g. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?...c=19974&hl= Thanks
  3. Hi guys, here are the pictures as requested: 1.) pics of gerwalk mode 2.) pics of battriod mode to show how poseable it is 3.) pics of the box and instructions for reference in the model section Enjoy!
  4. The kit was not hard to put together, just time consuming, if you wanted to make it "playable". Painting is time consuming for me too, trying to paint on a resin kit and hope that it won't scratch during transformation is nearly impossible. For me, I have to put alot of spacers between the parts to sperate them to avoid scratching. Posibility of the kit is not bad, considering that there is so much limitations in movement due to the design of the battriod mode. I would say that it is better then that of the old yamato Yf-19, and about the same as that of the Vf-11b. I will try to post some pics of the battriod in kneeing position later when I have time.
  5. They came with a model kit that I have for a tomcat. (F-14A Bounty Hunters by Fujimi) Totally agree with you, they are very useful in setting dioramas!
  6. SHE claims it to be 1/100, but I think it is more like 1/72, because the size of the pilot is almost the same as that of the Yamato 1/72 vf-11b. In fighter mode, the kit is 21 cm long. Here is a comparison shot.
  7. Thanks for the complements guys! Yes, I have the gold plate custom made, and the base is made from mdf board, primed, painted black and polished to piano finish.
  8. Thanks for the complement guys! Yes, the kit was very loose in the beginning. Basically, the kit was held together in each mode by tension of the screws. This is where the problem lies with resin cast pieces; because they are solid, so they are too heavy for little screws to hold on tight. Also the screws tend to loose its threads after a few transformation. This is why you need to put in locks and washers. But the thing I like about resin is that it is more solid than a model, so it actually feels more like a toy than a model after the modification. All in all, I think it is worth it, because this is something that I wanted for a long time. Valk 009: As requested, I have put up another thread of my 1/48 Vf-1S (with extendable leading and trailing edge) in the toy forum. Please check it out. Ha Ha Enjoy! Vf_1s
  9. Hi guys: This is something that I did a few years ago, but never got around to take pictures of it. This was done before the there was a 1/48 hikaru Vf-1s, so this one is constructed from the body of a hikaru 1A and wings, head, and tail of a fokker 1S. enjoy! You can also check out my other thread on the build up of SHE VF-4G in the model forum. Vf_1s
  10. First of all, I would like to thank Valk009 for finding me the Studio Half Eye VF-4. The following pictures (1-30) are steps which I took in building the kit. Numbers and descriptions were inserted in the pictures. Please keep in mind that this is the first time that I have ever build a resin kit, so please excuse my skills... Ha Ha Ha The kit was very time consuming to build, but in the end, it is all worth it when it is completed. I can now play with it like a toy, and can transform it faster than the 1/72 yamato toys. I am very satisfy with the kit. Enjoy! Vf_1S
  11. Thanks for the update! I was in contact with Tam lastnight and he said that the Garlands wont show up from Yamato till sometime next week and to just be patient, when he gets his stuff he'll get them and it'll be all worth it 406919[/snapback]
