Although I'm sure you'll find one or two more Ozma 29's before it's all said and done.

Took a couple quick pics in the detolf. Man the 1/48's look good in Fighter mode. Excuse the bit of dust. When I sweep every week some flies around :D

That's an interesting obsession. I'd be partial to the Yamato Max VF-1S, Cannon Fodder VF-1J or TV Max 1A. And since I'm sure you have an extra of at least one of those you should fund your next Roy by selling me one. :ph34r:

**Nice pic Gakken

you know i don't have a max vf-1s or dyrl max vf-1a. i only max tv vf-1a and two yamato zentradi suits so i'm looking for another max. i do have two mass vf-1j's... pm what your budget for each of these are and i'll see if i can hunt one down for you if possible. i just saw a max for 17500yen before shipping and proxy but passed.

Angel bird is the best Yamato 1/60 paint job imo. So crisps and cleans with lots of overlapping colors.

i think it's very colorful and definately better than the 1/48 in terms of paint apps and color

Very cool of you to offer, I was just giving you grief back (29). You seriously don't have to do any research or legwork on my behalf - but I TRULY appreciate the offer.

I always loved this woodland scheme, I know the grey low viz was always the hot ticket but I personally preferred this one. I no longer own any 1/48s, but I'd definitely like to buy a new one just to own at least one, and it would probably be this scheme.

that's my thinking.

It'll be a long time before they make a 1/60 camo so I'll role with it.

I think the 1/48's are pretty impressive in fighter.

The 48's failed for me in Fighter mode when you go to attach the Fast Packs, which is my preference for the VF-1, no locking mechanism for the arms was a big fat fail for my playability "wants".

Don't say anything when I blow up your PM! LOL

I recently picked up a case-fresh Nosjadeul-Ger toy from the Matchbox Robotech line for just about $28 shipped. This is the latter Harmony Gold edition from the early 90s, prior to the Playmates reissue. I give a bit more credit to these toys, because they were originally designed & tooled-up in Japan. The work reminds me a great deal of Clover's last Aura Battler Dunbine toys (The "SF Fantasy Figure" line), and I suspect these share the same Japanese contractor. Anyways - It's chunky, sturdy, colorful & playtime fun like most of the early Takatoku Macross toys.

Usually don't have big hauls of stuff, but got all these for for less than $150.

Even the regular colored launch arm. Only paid about $60 for it.

^Very pretty. If you haven't already track down the GBP-1S armor for it. Or go all out and customize some Fast Packs and yes, I know there are no jungles in space, but they'd look cool and matchy ( :p).

I'm actually gonna get some stealth packs for it. I think the black will go well :D

The 1/48 armor is just too bulky for me. Not worth it since I won't have him in bat mode. That's the plan anyway haha

It's still awesome that you pulled the trigger! I'd end up leaving it in the box until I could commission one of our talented builder/customizers to assemble.

Congrats on the purchase and good luck!
