Plastik Missle Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 So Hasegawa has Batteroid and fighter mode of the good ol' VF-1, but as far as I know no Gerwalks. Would it be possible to cutomise the other two modes into Gerwalk, and which would be easier to convert? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
007-vf1 Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 (edited) Yes, it is possible and may be your best shot to get as accurate as possible. You can use the fighter all together for the gerwalk; but if you dislike the skinny looking of the legs then use the Hasegawa battroid's legs. Keep in mind that It's going to take a bit of work though In the Hobby japan magazine of October 2002 you can see one done using both models there's a link to the magazines here Hobby Link Japan EDIT: You are correct the fighter doesn't have the hands but you can always use some optional hands from a gundam model or the like.

Plastik Missle Posted October 14, 2003 Author Share Posted October 14, 2003 Thanks alot 007! Am I right in assuming that the fighter kits also don't come with the hands? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfunk Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 Thanks alot 007!Am I right in assuming that the fighter kits also don't come with the hands? That would be a very safe assumption, I would look into gundam parts. I have a few kits, if you want, i can get the sprues and model numbers so you can order them, say through HLJ.

Gubaba Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 I'm really surprised Hasegawa hasn't come out with Gerwalks yet...after making the fighter and the battroid, I would imagine it would be relatively cheap for them to make one...

Alpha Omega Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 If you do plan on converting one of the Hasegawas, then you could also try the Metal Hands from Kotobukiya. They should be the right size. http://www.hlj.com/cgi-perl/hljpage.cgi?KBYMM01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
