1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 (edited) Un spacy seem to have run out of fast packs so they modded the ghost booster for vf-1 out of desperation. Edited June 7, 2007 by 1/1 LowViz Lurker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DARKWIND Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 (edited) Actually, the Ghost is dark grey, darker than the early promo pics. It looks great IMO. Graham Yeah, but you gotta admit it looks even more lethal in black. . . Hell, you could mod it with recessed gunports and rename it "Ghost Raven" Think about it, how cool would it be to fly into a dogfight use it (attached) to down a few bogeys. . . Then activate the "Raven" A.I., auto-maping enemy radar sigs to it. Pull a cobra manuver, gettison the drone, sicking it on enemy fighters or have it hang tight on your wing and watch it do what it do. . . AWESOME!!!!!

ruskiiVFaussie Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Yes please, a review would be great Graham! Like not a huge review, just tell us about the Ghost and upgrades to the VF-0A Shin. If any, but does the arms feel more sturdy someway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dante74 Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 The Ghost might be a darker grey than on the pre-production sample, but it's still a little too light IMO. a review would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante74 Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 (edited) Did anyone else notice that Yamato didn't include the air intakes on the top of the Ghost as shown in the Hasegawa box art below? I checked Kawamori's design book and he included them in his sketches, I just don't have a scanner handy to prove it though.

dodgethis Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 (edited) Finished panel lining my Ghost with Tamiya enamel flat black. Some stains are still visible. Removing wth compound later. Damn, those panel lines are bloody thick. Next target, canopy mold line removal and drill out the air brake.

Dante74 Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 Is the UN Spacy kite tampoed on the air intake on Shin's Ghost? The stand alone Ghost doesn't have this, it needs a damn sticker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fly4victory Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 The ghost shin combo is great. Thanks for folding the vertical fins on the VF-0. First one that did not have broken tail spikes. You also get the normal missles and the super wing stores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoveringCheesecake Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Hrmph. I'm contemplating canceling my Max 1/48 pre-order in favor of this. I *could* buy both, but $400 on toys is an awful lot for someone with my finances. GRARGH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooboyj Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Hi, I'm currently in Malaysia on work, and decided to buy this combo. I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've always gone VF-1's, but this combo has changed my mind on the VF-0's. I think Yamato really needs to sell more value for money toys like this. I'm very impessed with it. And the shoulders and arms seem fine, and the whole thing feels reasonabely tight. My work colleague gave me funny looks when I started flying it around the motel... Cheers from the sunny and humid Cyberjaya! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante74 Posted June 11, 2007 Author Share Posted June 11, 2007 Just got my VF-0A/Ghost combo. It's looks beautiful! The Ghost is a bit darker than what the various pics show, but it's still just a little too light formy taste. I'll panel line it next weekend and post pics when it's all done.

nightmareB4macross Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Hopefully, I'll be getting my set before month's end. I really like the fact that this is release as a combo set.
