I want something 1/100 or 1/60 or 1/48. Those would be good scales with your Macross toys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen any already built models in 1/60 or 1/48 so I can hop that some of mine from childhood are. FOr 1/100, there is that AFC stuff you are getting but again, I don't want to go down that rabbit hole so if I get any, I need to be very picky about it.

The shoulder replacements - https://www.shapeways.com/product/DV3KRQCTN/kanzen-henkei-1-60-scale-fighter-variable-hinge?optionId=3675956 As for the cracked rainbow cover tint, you can leave it on or remove it. If you want to remove it - Mr. Clear thinner and Q-tip (not supersaturated and making a mess on the valk, therefore making it worse than before).

Keq Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 I'm tempted on pre-ordering the Arcadia flight stand does anyone know if it will hold a Yammie? Also cleaned up the broken rainbow flakes looks much nicer now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, then yes, it will hold any Yamato Valkyries since it's using the same mold and adapters for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphahorizon Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 (edited) It's been 2 months since I added anything. Really want to get a 3D printer and work on making panels for the detolfs to line with appropriate themes for these. If anyone has any recommendations on not to expensive 3D printer(s) and possible some scenes that come to mind. I'll have to get the measurements for the wall panels from the Ikea site. Maybe it sounds ambitious but I enjoy modeling. I also want to give a big thank you to the Macross World community for allowing me to enjoy these Valkyries, by selling them.

DYRL VF-1S Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 The Focker and Ichijo TV VF-1S as well as DYRL VF-1A are new to me (2002/2008 reissues). But thought I’d get a Chunky group photo with some OG Macross (as well as sneaking in their long lost TF brother). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thx @rdrunner, I'm missing a couple HMRs. But now have the Delta line completed until the VF-31E release. I didn't think I would get into the Frontier Valks....But the RVF-25 started that line. What a great addiction!. Cant wsit to dress the HMRs in the OWL armor. Loved that look since I first saw the image posted over a decade ago here on MW from a fan made model.

Alphahorizon Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Also, Cant recall who, but I was given Madrake as place to shop if I'm okay with a few dings on the boxes. Which I am. Admittedly, they will get thousands from me I feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t know that they released one and now I want to get it to go with the rest of the Bat vehicles in that series. I think most are 1/50 scale. Hope they make a BTAS Batboat, Batcycle, and Jokermobile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went back to Ross to get the Star Wars 3 pack to see how the figure looks on Professor X as an alternate look. I may or may not return the set.
