Alain

I love my bones

Yup, those are Mav's photos...seen these setup personaly when I went to his house

If this was not overdone, might consider it. but between this and a clean valk, Il choose the normal one any time of the day

just playin'...

...somethin' extra.

EDIT - oh, it's my 888th post... hope i get some Feng Shui luck...

Cool Ferrari!

Just found out last night that my 1A also has a broken shoulder ( right ) its really not a big issue with me as long as it doesnt completely shear off. just hope that the latest releases will be problem free.

My thoughts exactly...I should wait for the new design replacement arms if ever I decide to purchase the parts. as for the moment Im still ok with it as long as it doesnt shear off completely...

Wow! taking it to the extremes Mon! now I know, this is what you had in mind all this time

got bored waiting for my 1D to arrive... thought i'd post a li'l better pic of Skull-1J and an old crappy pic of his big brother...

Nice pics Mon! Never thought that the skull insignia would look good on the 1J! I should try this sometime

btw is that a 1/48 gunpod sling you using?

just got confirmation that my 2 1Ds have been purchased... just need to wait for it to be hand delivered from HK...

2 VF-1Ds? thats great Mon! looking forward to your pics of your poses of these

If only I know somebody who frequent there, big savings for the shipping

Since it is " Somewhat " associated with Hikaru, would it still be accurate to put the " 101 " Modex number? just to give the valkyrie some identity....

Mod should actually erase some pictures here

this is a toy forum...

some pictures are going behond the limits here

If you are refering to the jets and it bothers you, then go ahead, let them erase the pics...as you said its a toy forum after all

Alain, are all those real world fighters model kits or Die Cast?

Vostok 7

They are diecast models 1:72 scale, the F-14 Tomcats are from Century Wings, the Su27s are from witty and Gaincorp. the F-18s and F-16s are from Dragon Wings and also Witty.

@ Vegas, now you know why Im always broke hehehe

@ Eugimon, Thanks!

@Alain... man, i think your 21 is mis-transformed... fuselage/nose part.

Hehehe ows? didnt noticed it pre...since I got this toy last june, after transforming it to battroide, it just stands there in the shelf, as all of my toys. rarely will I play with them. will need to take a look at it again, thanks for the info.

anyway here are the shots of the whole display cabinet. fortunately my friend is in the furniture business there in manila, will order the type of case he used for his models. pretty slick cabinet, for approx 200 usd.

still have some models/toys that are still in their boxes for obvious reason

nice to finally see some of your collections, man.

(kawawa YF21, na-piki sa pagsik-sik sa kanto... )

more...

Hehehehe...the lower shelves are more crampd than this one pre...esp the valks and toys shelves, my display is turning like a fruit salad here, a little bit of everything..will try to upload tomorow the whole setup. badly need another display case.

Was posting at the hangar for my UH-60 Black Hawk Helicopters...with the valks on the background coz I no longer have enough space for all them to display. I thought I should also post it here.... sorry for the messy display, need another shelf to separate the models from the toys....

Nice pics pre. been a long time. since I saw your pics hehehehe....

That is true, but so far it has never happened to me, only only pay Php 35.00 in customs duties. I suppose its probably just luck, and who is manning the customs office near your area.

Same here in Ozamis City. been ordering overseas for a couple of years now, and regarding the size of the package. customs only charge me for 35 php

so that is why some of my friends in Manila, have their items shipped here at my place, they rather pay the shipping than pay for about 2-3k depending on the size of the item.

Well, for me, so far all my valks are ok, but even with the reported breakage, still doesnt bother me, as I usualy just display them in the shelf.

nice pic! the VF-1J is indeed slick without those FPs:)

With the way things are going with the new bandai macF valkyries. made me more appreciative with my yamato valkyries here:)

Glad to have the 101 tampoed on the fins. Thanks for the pic, Kyp

Hmmm, For those of you who already have this toy, does the VF-1J have the 101 tampoed on the fins?

V2 for me. like maverick, I just like looking at them from my shelf along with my other collectors. and " SCALE " is important to me, love to see a uniform display. and yes the overall aesthetics of the V2 is much better IMHO....

Welcome to MW. I will go for the NORA

You should ask TakaraTomy or ask a Japanese-speaking friend to do it for you (especially as Tomy released Argent Meister recently). From what I heard TakTom are good at replacing parts, even for foreigners. At least I hope so, because.....

I got Henkei Thundercracker today and it has a widespread QC issue - the missile launchers cannot fit into his arms. The holes are too big. There have also been reports from Japan, general asia and from western fans of both Thundercrackers and Skywarps with two left or two right thighs, so one ends up backwards. Generally joints are looser.

Ah ok thanks for the info. but do you know takaratomy's website? ( English, as I dont have a Japanese Speaking Friend unfortunately )

sorry to hear re the qc of your thundercracker....
