  1. Bandai did prototype the YF-21 in the Hi-Metal line so who knows? http://www.collectiondx.com/news_item/22410/hi_metal_yf21_macross_plus
  2. Thanks for the comments guys. I wish Bandai would make on of these and give it the Low Vis treatment. One can hope
  3. Yep. I made 2, selling the original to fund the 0D
  4. Thanks for the comments guys! The wings are fixed within the wing gloves. I thought bout the super parts and to make them fit would require modification to accommodate for the hard point. I used one hardpoint on the wing, using this model as my guide: http://www1.cablenet.ne.jp/shima-m/macros2.htm
  5. This started out as a broken VF-25A Renewal (the top fins broke in a fall).I tired making new ones, but the end tab where the original fins went was too badly cracked, so I wound up having to glue them into place. The Valk still transforms beatifully, but the fins no longer fold. I thought, what the hey. It is based on the idea the YF-24 went into production as the VF-24, but only made it as an "A" model and utilized by the original UN Spacy fleet. I used styrene to fabricate the new wings and used the shapeways hardpoints for the missile attachments. I switched the gunpod out for a YF-19 Version 1 pod, which holds into place very well by sliding it in between the arms in fighter (still working on making it fit the Bandai attachments). The color matching was a nightmare, but I think it works, a little more green than I would like. So, without further ado, here she is

    1/48 dead?

    Who knows, Bandai may come out with one in their DX line utilizing the design elements from the 1/72 kit.
  7. If anyone is looking to part with the missiles this baby comes with, I would be more than happy to purchase them
  8. I think they will make the wings "push up" into the backback similar to the 1/72 VF-1 Bandai kit. If you remember from one the first Arcadia photos with the 1/250 VF-0D in it, there was a Bandai kit in the background. Maybe they were looking at the kit to get ideas.
  9. I wouldn't be surprised if Bandai retools the 25 wings to include hardpoints and then releases them again, starting with Ozma
  10. Could mean the 0D. Technically he did not do it during the initial Zero release.
  11. I wouldn't mind having an extra set of those missiles for my other valks. Hopefully they release them as a set, maybe web exclusive.
  12. I purchased mine about two weeks ago and got them last Thursday (F'ING AWESOME by the way). I think their site may not accurately record sales.
  13. I will definately be in for 3 sets (2 for repair 1 for spare)
  14. I'm hoping for the VT-1 and VE-1, but since I want it, it won't happen
  15. This happened to me. I would e-mail them and make sure. When I got a reply, HLJ told me they were sold out (even though I placed my order before hand) and that I was on a waiting list. Luckily I got one elsewhere, but I would check to make sure.
  16. I've ordered from them several times with no complaints.
  17. Humans NEVER fire first.........ask George Lucas
  18. I still haven't gotten a payment request from AMIAMI
