For the heatshield, which is curved, you can apply heat with a hairdryer and and it will mold to the surface without leaving any bubbles. I got the vinyl at a local graphic shop. Some auto boutiques may sell it. Edited February 12, 2024 by takatoys

sh9000 Posted February 13, 2024 Posted February 13, 2024 The HG 1/100 line has some pretty good articulation for poses. I hope the YF-19 and YF-21 get released as HMR.

I've been looking out for the VF-11B's Super Packs forever; of the Mac+ GNU-Dou trio, the 11B's Super Pack seem the hardest to come by. But I finally scored one recently, and sometimes it's the little stuff that's brings the big smile A couple of quick pics..
Mog Posted March 10, 2024 Posted March 10, 2024 The VF-1 and its inspiration: Should have got some better tools before going full-bore on building the Tomcat. But live and learn.
m0n5t3r Posted March 15, 2024 Posted March 15, 2024 (edited) I know I'm years late to the party but I can't stop staring and admiring (and sometimes swooshing) this thing. Easily top 5 Macross toy overall for me, but now I actually have it on display, it's starting to supplant the YF-19 as my favorite in fighter mode. Edited March 15, 2024 by m0n5t3r

Adding to that is that the design has 3 different engines & booster types incorporated into the whole thing that makes it more amazing.

Even with its ultra sleek design, I was surprised by its heft. It feels heavier that it ought to be.

Much better than the HMR version!
MKT Posted March 18, 2024 Posted March 18, 2024 It has butt flaps, but somehow they accentuate the YF-19 having no butt for them And personally think this has the best YF-21 proportions..

m0n5t3r Posted March 24, 2024 Posted March 24, 2024 I never display any of my valks this way but this thing is gorgeous even from its backside.
MKT Posted April 3, 2024 Posted April 3, 2024 I just like rainbow canopies, its like a nice cherry on the icing..
