  1. Did more testing of the stands. This time I used the VF-0 with ghost to see if it'll hold. Both bases are not fused to the base but hold the valks fine but in the 3rd pic the Valk on the right had the base attachment jutting up just a little but should be okay when I actually fuse it. It holds the VF-11 fine. Like it says in the instructions, use common sense and adjust for the center of gravity. I'm just experimenting to see how far I can go with these.
  2. They have other flavors there. I usually get the Green Tea flavored.
  3. Is that the Valk you was waiting for? Congrats! Man, you got a real good friend right there. My friends would just bring me back some kit kats and snacks.
  4. Did the OP find a solution for this? From his description I was assuming it was for a VF-0S since he mentioned ghost. Are the VF-1 and VF-0 shoulder parts compatible?
  5. Awesome product! Will definitely buy more in the future. Thank you for putting in all that time and effort into creating this. Well thought out parts list and instructions/warnings. Acrylic base attachments are loose but will just bond it together in the future. Holds valks just fine right now. Printed bases fit like a glove. Just got to test it with my SV-51 and VF-0S. Here's a couple of pics. Will post better pics when I learn how to use the camera.
  6. I'm not too sure but I think in forum rules it prohibits recasts without the property owners consent. As for the conversions, I have seen some around.
  7. You can try the what's it worth? thread in the collectors section. I would also try to look at the for sale section and see if there are current item listings that are similar to gauge a good asking price for here. I think on Ebay you can research the sold prices too. Good luck to you and your friend.
  8. B-b-but the leg in the twitpic matches the color of the lerx, even with the other blue pieces next to it. J/K! just bringing my assumptions and imagining things! Can't wait for the next photos.
  9. Haha! If not for that last thing at the end I thought you was serious. I like the blue on the leg in the pic.
  10. Welcome back to Macross collecting, where the love of valks do the talking and the wallets do the crying.
  11. I thought the live action movie was good for $24 million budget. Let's see what Hollywood can do with a $200 million budget. edit: I know what they can do with a $200 million budget. They made another battleship movie.
  12. On a rock in the middle of nowhere.

  13. I think this adapter needs to be a bit bigger for this one. What do you think?
  14. Same thing here. Payment got rejected. But I didn't bother calling credit card company to see if I had to authorize payment to Hi-pay. Just went with Paypal 'cuz I'm to impatient to save a couple bucks. Sucks though as the Hi-pay rate was better than the Paypal rate.
  15. Maybe it's supposed to look like a jousting knight where it armored on the defensive side. Didn't read the novels but maybe it's used for the capture the flag portion.
  16. I'm guessing these are gonna mainly be used as non riding (display pieces) by the majority here? I would love to get one for riding but no vents and no flip up shield would make it hard to ride for me as I know it would fog up like crazy and be miserably hot where I live. It was mentioned that you could drill vent holes but would that compromise the safety of the outer shell?
  17. Back when I was a kid I remember looking at the 1/55 elintseekers and super ostrich for $50 and thinking , who would buy those ugly looking things that don't even have weapons.(while looking at my just purchased strike valkyrie).
  18. Darn it! All these YF-30 pictures from everyone is making me drool!
  19. Whatever color it is come release day I'm getting it (maybe 2). In the meantime, I'll just keep looking at Mr. K's twitter feed for any updates about anything for this Valk. This will get tweaks down the line, just like the VF-1's and YF-19. Some might be good, some might be bad, but it will happen.
  20. I dunno why but for some reason whenever I look at the Armored Messiahs I think of this and the Death Blossom: Can the "Death Blossom" be considered in the realm of Itano Circus? Back on topic. Back when I first started collecting a year ago I found it was almost impossible to find Alto's and Ozma's Super and Armor sets for a not too crazy price. I was lucky to find a kind fellow member here and luck on ebay to find the sets . I say just keep looking and you might get lucky. The only way I see armored parts coming out is for maybe a bundle set like some have mentioned or for totally unexpected versions (General or Prophecy versions?). As far as Supers, if you're handy with painting I say just buy the cheapest sets available and repaint. I dunno 'bout the decals though.
  21. Couple it with the Iron Beam.
  22. Did Hiroyuki Motoki of (T-REX) help with this or did he just help with the original VF-0? How about a special rainbow color edition VF-0 in the future? j/k old pic of the Yamato's VF-0.
  23. I'll take any color visor. I want any type to add to my collection. I wish they release more info on the preorder date.
  24. Cool pics valhary. You need a couple more valks to make the Macross Love Triangle dining table complete. Maybe get the SDF-1 to stop lurking in the back and make a guest appearance.
