Hey all,

Thanks for your answers. I almost forgot that I even asked my question and then I was like "hmmmmmm I wonder if anyone has answered me". I will see what I can do here. I am by no mean good at customizing so I will have to see if I can even do anything. THANKS AGAIN

Do not drink and transform, you may hit a snag and spill your drink...

If you spill...That's alcohol abuse...

That's a TRU 1A. Too bad it's loose.$25.00 + Ship

What would you say a MIB one would go for?

Yes thats all of them. However, make sure the FAST pack armor parts you are getting have the arm armor from the reissue Super Valkyrie. The vintage arm armor does not fit the reissues.

Yes yes.....Thanks for your concern. I will be getting some recasted parts. It will be the BOMB!!!

So if that is all of them...Then I have finished my 1/55 army and now just need to get the SS Parts and Armor and I will be set. I think I may pick up a few more 1/55's to keep in the box. We'll see.

DyNo,

I would say that's impresive........but that would be an understatement.

VERY VERY VERY VERY Niiiiiiiiicccccccceeeeeeeee

I know, I can drink a pint of cognac and still walk home but 4 shots of Tequila is too much for transforming a valk? I need to take more lessons from Roy!

I know how you feel....that's why they call it "te-kill-ya"

I do feel for ya though....while drinkin makes everything seem like a good idea...it rarely is.

Lesson learned I'm sure.

Hey all,

Just curious...this is my checklist for the Bandai 1/55 reissues...

VF-1S Roy Focker

VF-1A Hikaru

VF-1J Hikaru

VF-1A CF

VF-1J Max

VF-1J Millia

VF-1S Super

Is that all the reissue 1/55's from Bandai??? Are there others??? Anyone who knows, please do let me know. I will not be getting the Super VF-1S for I will be eventually purchasing SS Parts from another member. I just want to make sure that those are the only ones on the checklist.

THANKS

my friend uses them in his camper van as night lights.

Night lights eh??? I know what I would be using them for in my camper van.....giggidy giggidy

Sqidd,

Well my friend...since I am in the US as well I will be trying out the light bars. Plus...I'm not too big of a fan of sticking things. But no worries there ruskiiVFaussie, I still think your display case looks awesome. Thanks for the info there Sqidd.

Dude, get the FP Hikaru set. That was a holy grail of mine for a DECADE. Well, I mean it is, but thats how long it took me to get one. Being a 10 year old kid, watching seeing the VF-1 SUPER valkyrie on TV, never being able to find a vintage one, then stumbling upon one at a local convention 10 years later and finally being able to buy it=PRICELESS CHOCK FULL OF WIN.

With the way money goes these days...it will be a while till I find a Hik Sup. VF-1S that I can afford.

But...oneday I will for sure.

Would one of the incoming two happen to be the Super VF-1S? Get super chunkied-out with some FAST Packs!

I would LOVE to say yes....BUT it's not...the 2 coming in soon are the M&M's. One day I will have the $ to get all the fast packs and armor that I need.

ruskiiVFaussie,

lookin good friend.

I just added 3 more chunkies to my army. Only 2 more coming.

Allow me to toss my hat (or Valk!) into the mix.

Three days ago I made my first Macross toy purchase: The Bandai 1/55 Hikaru 1A. It was a total impulse buy. I was walking past an anime store in Midtown Manhattan, and just dropped in to see if the establishment carried an Macross Zeo discs. As I combed the joint, thats when I saw the Bandai - immediate purchase after asking if it could transform into all three modes.

Oddly,, I didnt open the box until today, but what a treat! This Valk looks awesome in Fighter mode, pretty cool in Gerwalk, but a little "meh" in Battroid - buts thats no big deal. I love the toy, overall, a lot and its put a bug in me to get a few more I'm not sure which right now, but more are a -comin'!

O'm very happy that you chose and enjoy the 1/55. I CANNOT wait till I have all of the 1/55's and accesories for them that I need. Which will be a VERY long time from now. But patience is a virtue.

Sqidd,

I would LOVE to say that I feel sorry for you....But really I don't, unless you feel sorry for me. 3 packages were to arrive on mon. and I had to wait till today. And I still do not have them because my work sucks so bad that I am not even working in the office this week I am out in the field. So I will have to pick them up come tomorrow. =ME

Very nice pose Ghostkiller.

Yes.....VERY nice.

Hey all...I am sure there is already a thread for this started. So can someone please point me in the right direction. I would like to know how people apply those nifty paint jobs for their 1/55's. I myself am not anywhere near great at customizing and painting. So I pretty much need a paint customizing for dummies point of view on this.

Wow! Thanks for the pics. First time I see pics of the box. Mine's on the way (finally! I was waiting for Tam to get the YF-19 FB to ship them altogether). Poor Shogo was feeling really lonely without his sweethart.

Edit: As for the griping of the gun, maybe you should try a bit if nail poloish or superglue to tighten the fingers a bit. I know I should try it.

No Problem....I love taking pics of my new pieces. I will have to try out this superglue/nail polish tip. THANKS.

thanks for the help guys, i definitely see the groves for where the heat shield is supposed to slide up and down, and have looked at the spot where it's supposed to be at every possible angle but to no avail, its not there. From reading the boards, it sounds like there are more problems with yamato's quality control than there should be. Is that a common feeling in the communtity here? or just me?

Too alot of people there are QC problems BUT I have not really experianced any yet. Sorry to hear about the heatshield, ESPECIALLY on such a BAD A** Valk. I am sure that Yamato will help.....I mean they sent new parts for the Megazone 23 1/15 Garland to people for free. They should help you too.

you guys have great collections. Im in the process of moving to another apartment and all my stuff is boxed up right now, and as soon as its unpacked, ill take a few pics and throw them up here.

I'm in the same boat as you. I will be moving come next weekend hopefully and as soon as I get my ENTIRE collection set up I will be posting a gallery of pics.

I havent actually tried these guys yet, but i fully intend to next month.

Now everyone here should know that LAFtoys.com is the way to go. BUT...I just checked this site out that you mentioned V....and I am SUPER DUPER HAPPY. I just got a 1/60 Macross Armored Parts for VF-1 from them for like 20 bones. Their clearance iems are to die for. AWESOME. Thanks for referring them.

There is only ONE THING that I cannot stand. He doesn't hold his weapon worth sh**. Is there any suggestions from anyone? THANKS.
