Me as well. So the best thing is to contribute now. Nice chunky! BTW technically, shouldn't this thread be under the customizing/modding category?

Put some of that money in the bank son

Thanks. I only got to see the first 10 minutes, but it looked interesting. i need to invest in a DVR for my TV

These look great. I'm in for 2!

I bet it would look sick on the VF-X...

VF-1D, with strike parts.

Are you referring to the Stylus Pro WT7900? That thing retails for $8,495?! Or is there a cheaper model? I hope...

I just saw that Banpresto in Akiba last weekend. It was going for about 600 yen. It didn't look the greatest, but you cant really beat a 600 yen transformable valk with fastpacks Would love to see some pics of it out of the box. I've thought about picking one myself for some cheap custom fun.

Sign me up as well. I've always regretted missing out on the 1/48 version.

Minmay Guard Decals 1/60 and 1/48. Moon Act

I love everything about this, except the giant Minmay decal. I think the colors and design otherwise look great.

I hope you're right. Because right now it looks like a blue plastic turd

While I have absolutely no clue what the OP is talking about, nice looking valk!

Those are the only things to improve??I think you just named everything that a new 1/48 could be. Sounds ok to me.

Whats wrong with you people?!?! V2 1/48 valks would be nothing but asskicking awesomeness!

Wow, you guys are awesome. I love seeing what everyone is doing, and am feeling inspired. I'd never done a model (not counting an SD Gundam 15 years ago) but I saw this kotobukiya kit on sale for 200 yen at Yodobashi and couldn't pass it up. Now I'm hooked, and just got a cheap HG Zaku to practice up on before I butcher a Hasegawa Valk. I'm fighting the urge to buy box after box of models that I'll never put together, and just go one at a time (>_<)

It's not a snowboard jacket? I'd wear it on the slopes. I thought the clear plastic on the sleeves was for your pass.

I hadn't seen much discussion on this kit. I just ordered mine online from Family Mart, and was wondering if anyone had been able to pick one up early. It's a little pricy but will come with a ticket to the new movie. This is my first frontier model, and the pics I've seen look great. Especially the new head. That was the one area I didn't really care for on the VF-25, too bug like for me. The YF-25's head almost reminds me of the ship out of fantasy zone.

Minmay Guard in 1/48 size!!!! _(._. )_

Vendetta, I've gotta ask. Do you have a Ronald McDonald clock above your display??

Can I get weathered GBP armor to go with it?? If so, I'll get one.

$1000 is different for everybody. If I'm a broke ass student, I can probably find a better use for the money (cheap beer and whiskey). But if I've got a well paying job, why the hell not spend it on something I really want. Pardon the cliche, but we only live once.

Damn, that is one sexy bird. Love the colors. Oh how I wish Yamato would make one for me.

Are those personal collections?? If not, where are the photos from? And the Vf-1D, in a sweet looking box? Did someone make that? I'm drooling just thinking about a properly done 1D chunkie. Edit: Just read about the boxes on the previous page. It's a shame they aren't available anymore.
