Looks like a pretty good match from the looks of it.

Nice!!! Keep em coming!!! -=]

Nice work Anthony! Keep the pics coming. -=]

They both look nice.

Wow! If the productions are actually that color... I can see myself making the modding components for a VF-22S. XD

1/60 YF-19 Gerwalk Locking Chest Mod
PsYcHoDyNaMiX replied to Lonely Soldier Boy's topic in The Workshop!
Nice mod for the gerwalk mode. -=] -
I think misterryno meant to ask a more general question about the 1/60 and not to the ghost in particular (which should belong to a different thread). The answer to the question about the 1/60 scale figs is: The Macross Zero series is unlike the DYRL 1/60 series. The Macross Zero series 1/60 figs have a metal swing bar somewhat similar to the 1/48 line. Unlike the DRYL 1/60 figs where you literally have to pull out the legs and attach them to the fuselage for battroid mode. Hope that helps clarify any speculation.

That's pretty DAMN nice!!!

1/72 YF-21/VF-22 Hasegawa Battroid Conversion

Payment Information, etc under the "For Sale & Trade" section. -
They most likely were using the first version of the VF-0S. Yamato does that alot. Take the VF-0a Shin version for instance. They used a repaint of the VF-0a CF.

Nah... I'm pretty sure you're no idiot. I recall mine at first was pretty tough to extend out, but eventually I got it. I think one of them was partially glued too. It might've been over glued by their crazy factory workers. Well you can also try this... loosen the screw on the inner thigh which holds it together. ***EDIT*** Oh yea to note... the blurry hind knee pictured only had four notches out to the split from the upper thigh. I actually had one more notch to go and wasnt pictured. So It should extend to a total of five full notches out to the split (knee swivel) from the upper thigh.

Who stated that there was a different paint scheme? o.O

Yea the trick to that is you need to bend the knee joint as much as possible while using the knee pads (covers) to provide some resistance for the knee swivels to keep them from swinging into a split. ***EDIT*** I'll provide a pic when I get the chance:

XD YF-19 Poses from Macross the Movie (according to timeline order): Yes one of them is upside down... I don't have the clear flex display stand, so I ended up improvising. XD Another pic is a double, but couldnt decide which one was better. When I get a better background setup I'll retake the pics.

@ sqidd... I believe you might've missed a step for the legs in gerwalk mode. There is another ratchet feature that allows the gerwalk mode to get the "nose down" angle. Check back in the manual. The ratchet is in the lower part of the thigh above the knee swivel. Thats why you might've not seen it. ***EDIT*** reference pic...

1/72 YF-21/VF-22 Hasegawa Battroid Conversion
PsYcHoDyNaMiX replied to PsYcHoDyNaMiX's topic in Model kits
Unfortunately I was unable to get the extra time to develop the joints for this kit. I was hoping to get around to it, but seeing as casting for my first time took a bit I wasn't able to get around to converting the kit and making recasts of those parts (esp. when school was starting). If you guys beat me to it I'll be looking foward to the threads/posts here on the forums. -=] Max ***EDIT*** Aside from that seeing how the kit was made it's quite possible (easy) to convert it into a joint kit. Just get a couple of Kotobukiya joint sets and just carve or drill some extra grooves in the correct locations and it's converted. -
VF-0a Shin type or CF? ***EDIT*** Oh yea... BTW damn that really sucks. Feel for your loss. -=X

Here's another update... Alright... awaiting to complete a members list, send out confirmation PM's, shipping info, a couple of more cds (for instructions, reference pics), totals and payments. Payment Plans: I will be taking PayPal and Postal Money Orders; sorry no checks. I will take PayPal under the circumstances that the payment sender will cover the PayPal fee (I think it's 4% correct me if I'm wrong). It may not look like much, but here they are 20 kits in a box: -

Thanks guys for the PMs. I still have to confirms some more orders and get a shipping price for the kits. I'll send out the respectable PMs when I have more information. -

PsYcHoDyNaMiX replied to PsYcHoDyNaMiX's topic in Model kits
Ahhh... yea almost forgot a price for the kit. The original kit cost me $300 (w/o shipping). I recall a member here on the forums selling an original kit for $250 or so (after I got mine). When I checked the prices on Yahoo Japan around the time I got mine they were going for about $200. I figured if a service was used to obtain them from from Yahoo Japan it would range about an additional $35-50 depending the amount/value in play (that's w/o shipping fees) . I've put in numerous amount of time and expenses towards reproducing these kits. I'm not professional recaster, but being an avid collector of toys and models the casting quality of these kits are pretty damn good (especially for a beginner). Trust me I've put plenty of research into this. XD So after 15 molds (for about 55 pieces), about 3 hours of casting time (mold preping, pouring, etc) and sorting for each kit, about 40 hours (total) for mold making (rolling out the clay, setting pieces, modifying the molds, etc)... I was going to go for about $125 originally as an asking price, but that wouldn't even make it anywhere near half of the original WF event price. I'm going to be more fair. I'm asking for $100 a kit (w/o shipping fees or other fees). ***EDIT*** typos -

Hey guys, I'm glad you asked jipe. I actually have 14 bagged up and ready to go, but I still need to finish preparing six (6) more kits for bagging. I need to make 10 more cds which will hold the instructions and reference pictures. I have my midterms coming up this next week and I'm trying to get my school work done in a timely ordinance. I've been pretty much swamped, but hopefully I can start getting the list together of people who've wanted a kit (or two) by sometime next week and start shipping the processed orders by the end of next week. In any case here's some progress pictures: NOTE: Red bag contains the six (6) unsorted kits. -

I can imagine if he were going really fast and needed to short stop. XD -
As far as I'm aware the VF-0S doesnt suffer from the rear landing gear problem. The YF-19s that suffer from the landing gear issue are the ones that are not packaged with the fastpack & fold set. There's a simple fix for the landing gear problem on the YF-19. It can be found here: http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=21130

I was suppose to post these last night, but my net was down. Here's some more pics of the VF-0S in box. The two large Yamato boxes are of the VF-0S and the other is my Max and Miria. They all came in the other day. I'm not opening them yet because I just have no room at all. I'm afraid if I do I'll end up leaving them out. My room is no place for display space. -=X (I apologize for the bad lighting)
