OK. Here are the pictures.

Very nice. To answer your question. If you can get your hands on a Imai 1/72 GBP, it would almost fit. I have a picture at home of one. I'll post it later tonight.

So why don't you tell us what brand it is? Please. Thanks. Don't be greedy.

Not sure if you found your last piece, but I know a place that still has some for sale. My friends shop here still has them. You can place an order with him from his website. Here is the link. Click here.

I also built 2 1/12 scale motorcycles. Here is my R-1. I'm building another one just like it for a freind of mine.

By the way....don't you hate that the wings sag. My fighter has that same problem on one of it's wings.

Very nice. I like the weathering and detailing on those small little buggers. I wish I had the tallent and supplies to detail/weather like that. Here is my 1/144 YS VF-X.

My other models are 1/24 scale cars. Mostly imports.

Man, you even make the toys look ultra detailed.

Wow, it can hold up a 1/48. I was wondering if it would handle the weight. I guess I'll buy at least 1.

Can't wait to get some of these. Thanks for the updated pics Graham.

Mines would have to be a Takatoku super valk I bought from Noel. Around $900. This was back when they were very hard to find.

Thanks Noel. I figured that it was supposed to be upside down. I don't wanna take a chance and mount it upside down, and have it come loose and smash the valk. I don't think I'll be getting the rest though, I am only fond of the VF-1 series valks. Probably the only way is if they are selling for cheap.

No problem guys. I wasn't sure if anyone had posted pictures of the box. I can't wait to get my pair. Still gotta wait till my local supplier gets his shippment in. About another 2 weeks.

Ostrich front.

Well, I did find some pictures on Ebay. Here are pics of the boxes.

That is what I think. They are holding back for that. Well, I hope they are.

Attached to the base. Another angle. I did a rush job on the missles. I wanted to see what they look like on the fighter. Here is a pic. What do you think?

Another small update. I painted the thrusters inside the feet red. I also started assembling some of the parts. I still can't get over the detail resin kits have over regular plastic ones. It is coming along quite well. OK. I started to assemble some of the parts. I also applied the decals to the leg armor and the booster pack. I remember someone saying that they had to scrape off the paint for the pieces to adhere, so I made sure I scraped off a little section of paint where the crazy glue would be. Another angle. Here it is with the pieces put together. I still have to finish the stripes along the side if the nose. Since this kit I bought didn't have any decals, I have to paint the stripes on the wings and the nose. Then I have to apply the UN symbols, and the 001's. After all that is done I can finally glue the rest of the fighter together. Another angle. Well here is another small update. I still have to either paint or put decals for the U.N. Spacy symbols, and finish the pilot and the cockpit. I put the launch arm together though. Here is what it looks like with the valk attached. Picture 2. Side view. I finally got around to finishing the fighter. The only thing left are the missles. Don't know when I am gonna get time to finish those though. I had a real hard time with the kite symbols. The decals that came with the kit are not the right size. I even tried to use the Imai 1/144 ones, but they are too small. So I had to color them in by hand. Anyway here are some pics.
