Count me in!!!!

Put it this way... how many times would you transform your 1/48? Once, twice? I'm afraid to break mine!

Chunky Monkeys rule!!!! Add a few custom parts (new head, new paint job, etc.)... you're set for life!!!

I'd wish Bandai continued with the reissues.... *please God?*

I propose to re-instate Rosario Love back on the straight list.

I know the Super O issue is a long drawn one, but i believe he has made good on his promisses and has refunded the money he owed me. I'm not sure about the rest but he did for me. (and I'm in Singapore).

Hence, any one else second that we bumb him bcak onto the straight list?

Alvin

Hi guys,

Whats the best way to apply future on a model? My air brush keeps cloggin when I spray it on. Anyone can help?

Alvin

I felt like voting for the 1/60 for the heck of it, but seriously, the 1/48 rocks man!!! I only wanted the vf-1a Hikaru for the fun of it, now I've got all 6 valks released.... guess you can tell which one I'd choose.

From the "For what it's worth" department:

I got my 8th 1/48 Yamato right around Christmas from Kevin Lam of the Valkyrie Exchange. (As always, thanks Kevin...you rule! ) I took it out....put the armor on it....and admired it for hours. It's a Hikaru 1S Strike...nothing new...and yet it still stuns me with it's beauty. Truly a wonderful toy.

Jessee,

In Chinese custom, 8 is a prosperous number. Normally associated with wealth. 8 1/48s is a good thing.

Just my 2 cents worth...

Alvin

cool! thanx!!

Was looking at my 1/48 AAMs and was wondering what color to paint em.

Any one have any ideas? Any screen shots of missiles? Or should I follow USN missiles with the yellow and brown stripes on em?

Can anyone help?

Hey Devin, when are thay for sale?

Alvin

I believe devin just finished his 1/55 blue roses project.

devin count me in for 1/55 and 1/48 minmay guard and blue roses!!!!

are these very hard to build and paint?

Check out the FAQs or ask on the boards over at Starship Modeler , I hang around there quite a bit and everyone is more than happy to help.

I found this awesome set on Squadron.com for those of us that have yet to get a 1/48, I think I may pick this one up.

It's a hasegawa set,, BUT it's in 1/72!

may be it was a joons but he put it in the wash and it srank?

may be.....?? <_<

Building and painting are easy, follow the instructions, it's the weathering that you need practice on. You can prob find sites that teach you how to. Best is still trial and error, until you get something you like.

The Verlinden kits will be a little harder. They're mostly solid resin with photo etched parts. Cutting and sandind the resin gets tricky on small scales. Not forgetting you'd prob need some tools too. Not too easy if it's your first one.

I think the Hasegawa 1/48 ground crew is the only set of any use (includes 4 grenrators). Other ground crew sets all only have figures. However they're not accurate to the OVA. Any accurate stuff will have to be scratch built. I think there was a topic on the old boards for this.

The old Bandai line art of the 1/55 Strike valk however used the hasegawa 1/72 ground crew and equipment.

edit: too used to using spell checks....

Alvin

PAINT IT!!!

PAINT IT!!!

MY first valk was a 1/100 bootleg VF-1J. Got it for a birthday present in 86. Broke the arms off after a week.... will never forget that!

1/55, 1/48, 1/60, all the same to me. Still a valkyrie!!

Love em all!!!

But especially have a soft spot for the 1/55. Call it... memories......

I think most of us grew up with the 1/55.

cool... I don't have to make my own anymore.

I'd rather yamato stuck to giving us what we all want a 1/60 or 1/48 GBP first then.... and ONLY THEN should they make an F-14.
