  1. Looks like you need to slide the nosecone out alittle bit. remember when you transform it to battroid, You have to push up the nosecone, for the heatshield to sit right. You have to reverse the process....

    The metal where the nosecone slides on, should have a small gap in fighter, and no gap (like how you have it pictured), for battroid mode.

  2. With this thread, there should be no regrets on purchasing a Valk with broken shoulders. I'm jealous you were able to land that 1J. It's one of the Valks I'm missing :(

    Exactly! I would gladly buy the older version 2's. Broken shoulders and all.
  3. I got it off mandarake. It does have the rainbow canopy.

    Oh.... new or used?

    I bought the optional parts separately. BTW, they are hiking up the price on the vf-1j right now. It was selling on ebay for 138$ shipped and now its listed at 179$ shipped. I wonder is it because it is getting sold out everywhere.

    Luckily I got mine when I did. It was for the $138 shipped.

    where did you get them? yea I had it in my ebay cart and was about to buy it (from estertool) when the message popped up saying it was no longer available at that price. I was pretty annoyed

    Bummer. That is the seller I got mine from. And they were the cheapest at the time.

  4. Finally picked up the vf-1j. Overall, it is in decent shape but noticed it has a crack shoulder hinge. Taking the back landing gears out were a major pain. Sorry for the crappy pictures with droid phone.

    Where did you buy it from? Looks like it has the rainbow canopy? I got mine from a seller on Ebay, and it has the newer clear canopy. If I didn't just buy a used one with the rainbow canopy off Ebay, I would have traded you with your cracked hinge and all.

  5. Yeah a question was asked I gave my opinion. No harm in that right?

    I had a feeling about the price. And I was just asking.... curious as to see what they are going for now a days. And yes what you said is true, if you want it, you pay it. May seem high to some, but not to others.

    I am not sure if I would call my buying a frenzy cause of the new ownership and name change. More of an expensive catch up for the years I missed out on. From 2010 till about the middle of 2012, I was not visiting MW often, not collecting anything toy related.... I was into my other hobby. Now that I am back.... its hurting my wallet. I am selling off some of my other hobby stuff to fund this addiction. ;)

  6. Those are customs and were made way before the Chronicle Specials...C'mon vt your suppose to be an OG. You should know these things..tsk tsk

    He's referring to these Benson....

    The Roy shield was just there to test out...

    Yeah I know huh? I should have known that. I did leave in 09, and started coming back only last year. I missed out on a lot. :(

    Very nice customs though....very nice.
