Finished fixing up my TV 1S. After many years, I finally have the TV Super Valkyrie I always wanted. :yahoo:

Now to put her together...

Looks amazing @Lolicon , Love the Fast Packs & all the detail work! 

Curious if you repainted the FP's or is that the color of the TV Armor right out of the box?

That's the color out of the box. They're more green than the DYRL super parts.

What did that start life as? A Yamacadia 1/60?

It started life as a Yamato Roy Focker VF-1S and separate TV super part set.

Some quick pics before I attach all the supers.

And yes I do have two separate TV VF-1S's for Hikaru and Roy. Hikaru's I will keep permanently in super valkyrie configuration.

Awesome pic!

I'll see your strike valkyrie and raise you a TV super. ;)

What are the differences in a TV Roy and  DYRL Roy?

-The packs obviously. No strike cannon on TV.

-The roundels on the packs are Kites on YV?

-Are the packs a different color?

-Anything else?

-Wouldn't TV Roy have cartoon hands?

 

Did Roy ever have Supers on his Valk in the TV show? I only remember Hikaru getting them after Roy died.

 

I'm not nit picking. I'm genuinely curious. I need to raise my nerd game a bit here. :good:

@sqidd You are correct.  Roy was dead before the supers were on his ride.  Hikaru was fitted with them later in the series.  
 

Another difference are the arrows on the head of the 1S are black on the TV version and yellow on DYRL. Kites were on the supers, no strikes, and super parts were a different color. I’m pretty sure the Yamato TV version came with fixed posed cartoon hands.

DYRL - bluish; SDFM - greenish

DYRL valk - greyish; SDFM - white

Arrows on the head are either yellow or black but I can't remember which one is DYRL or SDFM

Where did you find the extra decals for the super parts and the Valk? They look awesome!

Looks like the others have answered all your questions. Yes the Yamato does come with fixed pose clown hands, but I hate part swapping so I keep the perfect transformation hands on. Parts swapping is what kills the HMR VF-1 for me, among other things.

You can go on ebay and search for "Macross decal" and there will be tons of third party decals for sale at various scales.

I also use various generic marking decals that are out there, like these:

Dear Arcadia, planning on another VF-1 reissue from the Glory days of Yamato?? Hint Hint... make this one please!

Thanks! Would be great if Arcadia reissued more TV valks.

Last couple before she goes back on the Yeti stand.

Thanks!
