I can't see why Yamato, Bandai, Hasegawa or any other takers (Minus Toynami of course) wouldn't take a swing at making a new version SDF-1 like the Original 1980's release!!?? There's definitely a profit to be made!! I have 2 of them and for the time when they were made and the technology available, they are still impressive, can you imagine how it would look now!!! I agree that the WAVE 1/5000 is compact and detailed. But it still lacks a major punch in Size, its the SDF-1 it should be big!! A 1/3000 or 1/2000 scale and reissued in both the TV series & DYRL versions!!!

We'll be waiting patiently!! Gonna be a dam good looking Valk when shes all done!!!

when you have the pilot all painted & finished can you share your pictures with us, would love to see how it turns out!! Looks amazing so far, Will you take a swing at making more of these??

I agree with Gubaba, Hasegawa has the skills & detail to make exquisite Aircraft models and the VF-0S Battroid is no less of perfection. So I agree, a set of gerwalk Valks is in order!! The VF-1's and Zeros would be a great start!! I'd say the Macross II VF-2SS in all 3 separate modes for max detail, but I'll bet that's another licensing battle with Bandai or others....

My baby, the Macross II VF-2SS!! Hopefully in 1/60 scale by Yamato....... Someday. I can wish & hope right??!! Which company is the maker of your VF-2SS, Bandai or a resin kit??

What does a Revy custom look like?? Sounds sexy!!

That's a good question as far as the VFX2 Licensing goes, But lets see what the new VF-11B will look like 1st, because, if it is as good as I think we are all hoping it looks, Than I can't see why the various Armor packs wouldn't follow suit. Also, not sure if I missed it in the other postings, any rumors if the New VF-11 even comes with the Std FP's Isamu has in the opening scene of the OVA, Sorry if this question has already been asked!!

That would suck!! After all the waiting I want to see the VF-1D with Minmay & Hikaru, Not std pilots, I have the Original VF-1D and never was happy with the pilots they chose!! Maybe Hasegawa should start making toys, they are anal for details!!!

I hope the hands & landing gear will be as detailed as the Hasegawa 1/72 Macross Zero types!! But either way I will definitely get one or two of these, perfect for some custom paint schemes!!!

I'm not really a big fan of the YF-19, but that paint scheme is awesome, This one might be worth getting!!! Thanks for the pics!!!

As for me I am probably one of the rarer Macross fans who loves the VF-1D, I actually like it better than the VT-1. But as far modernizing it for the sake of Yamato to speed up production or what not, that's kinda weak. If your going to make a certain Valkyrie, then make it the way it was originally designed. And speaking of better or other scans, when you can not find them, go to the source... your DVD's. The other pic is of Hasegawa's 1/72 model version of the VF-1D and that's what it should look like. Just a shame they'll never do a 1/48 and this is apparently what the new 1/60 v.2 is gonna look like. But then again, its just my opinion.....

That is a sick & sexy collection you have there my friend!!! Love the Valkyrie line-up!!

It would be amazing to have a 1/60 version, no doubt about it, But definitely size and what one would cost, It be either a down payment on a house or new car!!!

That's an awesome paint scheme!!! And you have your self some talent for painting!! Keep up the great work!!

Well after all the delays that have occurred with the VF-11B, I just hope it is a very accurate looking Valkyrie that is true to the anime and has every detailed matched up correctly. And even if the pilot sizes a slightly off between a VF-1 & a VF-11 pilot, well just keep those valk's on separate shelves!! And just think...... Accurate landing gear this time, Holy cow!!!!

Thank you for the compliments!! I am waiting for Hobby Link Japan to get resupplied on the Macross Zero VF-0B 1/72 kits, and get a few of the VF-0D kits too, I'm going to try a few different custom paint schemes on those kits. Hopefully down the road do some work on other Valkyries as well!! This is the other VF-19!! Peace!!!

Roy Fokker in a sports car, that is just genius!! Love the pics!!

Thanks ruskiiVFaussie!! Heres a few more pics of my VF-19. I still have work to do on it, but one day she'll be finished!! Custom landing gear is on the drawing board. As well as a few more pics of my new VF-0A, I love this Phoenix!! Take care friend!!

However they redesign the Heat shield, it couldn't be any worse than the original design. But seeing how its been done for the VF-1's & VF-0's, I think Yamato will have a good concept to work with!! If anyone has any preview pictures in the future, don't be shy to share them!!

Hi Miriya, the YF-21 is the older Yamato 1/72 version. The joke machine is made/stamped by Bandai. the VF-19's are the the knock-off Bandai versions... not much too look at as they are, but with the repaints, decals and new hands makes them look way more exciting!!! I hope to have the 1/60 YF-21 of these days!!! Take care friend!!

Hey Guys, just doing a little bit a rearranging as usual. As well as showing off my new baby, Its my 1st VF-0A with VF-1 Wolf Pack squadron markings added. Its awesome, its amazing, won't be the last one to my collection either!! And its transforms just perfectly!! Got the GHOST-B today from MW member "Brannon" excellent seller I must say!! I thought it was neat to compare the size difference between my Hasegawa 1/72 VF-0A, Max's VF-1A 1/60 & my new 1/60 VF-0A... its crazy how much the bigger the Phoenix is compared to a Valkyrie!! Take care Everyone!!!

I hope they never try to do a remake of Alien or Aliens. That would truly be a dark day in history!!!

The VF-1D was always one of my favorites, I have the original 1/60 version, but after seeing these pics, This is a definite purchase for my collection, Any possible ETA when it might release?? And for all us 2-seater fans, lets hope the VE-1 & VT-1 DYRL versions are in development too!!! Thanks for the Wonderfest photos!!!

Either way my Friend, it looks awesome!! The rust on the engine exhaust looks great!! I just ordered a VF-0D And a pre-ordered some VF-0B models for my collection. HLJ will be reselling them in August, you should check that out as your next kit, The 2 seater designs are usually the best!! Take care man!!!!

I have been waiting for years for there to be a good version of the Mospeada Ride-Armor to be made and this one looks like it!! By far better than the CMs version or Toynami's entries. If you look carefully at the pictures behind the engine there is even a coiled shock system in the back. Plus Stick/Scott Bernard looks like the Anime character this time, Not a toy gone wrong!! I agree the legs are a little on the narrow side, but look how the figure sits on the bike, perfectly!! The hands, Helmet, even his pulse rifle look detailed! Even my old school Gakken 1/8 Ride Armor (I have 4 of them) never sat properly, even the latest new versions do not look right!! So even if Beagle is a new company, just from what I have seen, I'll take my chances and for once own a perfect version Ride Armor, Glad i waited !!! Who knows, if these do well, maybe the Legioss & Tread will follow, they will look better than whats out now!!!!!
