To be honest, I probably would buy something like this if it could be broken down into 10 or more stages/sets to keep the overall cost manageable. Your stunning work has me sold on what could possibly be one of the hottest fan made/designed items I've seen in some time! I was really hoping Yamato would do a 'bells & whistles + everything but the kitchen sink' 1/24 VF-1 ultimate version collectible w/A,D,J & S head variations, and swappable dual-seater cockpit included, but I'm delusional like that . So yeah, I'd be totally down for something like this done in an affordable way. At the very least, I hope that you can do the other head variations in 1/24. Would make for one hell of an awesome display!

Dan, is this really going to be something that I can order, or is it just a one off for yourself?

Yeah, gotta agree w/Benson...the revised boot definitely looks much more aggressive & ready to stomp on Zentran heads!

My goodness!! Looking at your stunning work is like taking both the red AND blue pill from the Matrix simultaneously; wouldn't know what to expect, but the results would probably be apex experiences in both worlds! I sure hope you plan on giving this treatment to the other iconic sdfm tv/dyrl valk head units! Just superior work!! Please keep this going Mr. Bickell, best humpday surprise ever!

Naw man, seriously thank you! My VF-0A came out the box with 2 broken shoulders, but you've given me hope that he may display like brand new once you get the tweaks worked out. So thanks again for this Veef!

I like the design as much as the MCB's, but that price point + s&h kill it for me.

IS can you rotate/slant that vernier so that the center bar matches the original BP8? Otherwise, slammin' as usual!

Hey Spiff, are those ikea "detolf" display cabinets? Oh yeah, nice collection too!

Yuk Yuk!

Very, very interested...pm'd you.

Never begin any project uninspired. You'll only end up disappointed, or less than completely satisfied, in the final result. Save that sweet design for your best effort! As far as paint schemes go, I am feeling that new 1/60 Yamato Cavaliers pattern myself.

Another win! Just keep the 1/48 love coming bro!

God, I hope you're serious about doing some of your killer 1/48 mods & conversions as 'obtainable' upgrade kits...that would be awesome, and I would buy them!

But if you need that dough to make our dreams a reality, then we'll wait patiently.

Child, you ain't nuthin' but the truf! If this is the level of work that you plan on doing for the 1/48s, then you can count me in for ALL of your 1/48 macross products! That's just stellar work; and knowing it derived from a one shot mistake/in joke makes it all the more stunning! You like 'customers' for your 'customs' IScustoms?...then just keep up the 1/48 support and you'll have mine!

pm'ed you, and hope I was the first with my 'particular' request.

I like what I'm seeing so far; just keep doing what you're doing in the 1/48 scale and I'll be happy for some time. This would make for an interesting 1/48 custom. Will the kit include a translucent eyepiece if it sees production?

If I can afford this, I am so all over this that it's not even funny!! Two questions though... (1) will this be durable material?, and (2) are you planning on doing a VF-1T as well? I am glad to see & support any projects that further enhance the 1/48 Yammies! Still in awe of these figures even if Yamato never makes another version of them.

Now that's what I'm talking bout! That's just the sort of legacy that this legendary build deserves! This is killer news MT, and I wish you all the continued success and accolades that this project brings to your door! You have really & truly earned this sir. Might as well drop a line to all the other Japanese sci-fi oriented publications now. "GOOD NEWS EVERYONE!", indeed.

This sounds like it could be hot Valkyrie! I am definitely interested in a 1/1400 scale version of an ARMD.

Still liking what I see each and every time...I want this as well. Keep'em comin' T.Y.!

Your're welcome...just keep banging out those 1/48 goodies for us big scale guys, cause no one else is. Much appreciated.

I co-sign the above statement; would buy them in a NY minute!

I still like what I'm seeing T.;that is when I can see them (*cough*M-299*cough*) The 1/48ths never had it so good. Can't wait to see what else you have in store (figures someday maybe?) for us BIG scale valk lovers!
