Is that an adapter to use Tamashii stages for Air Fighter Collection models?

No.  The black adapters are the ones that come with the AFC.  I flipped the Tamashii stand arm upside down so that the thicker peg connects to the adapter and the thinner peg connects to the base.

Clever trick! Thanks for sharing.

I’ve been eyeing the hayate armor parts for a long time. Finally scored one a few months back and had the chance to put it together today. Looks intimidating and I love it! Wish the legs are sturdier to hold up all that weight but it will have to do.

Went back to tweak couple of old pics, both of non-transformable VF-1s.

Do you use a camera or your phone to take these pics?

Oops.  Just noticed that the framing around the VF-0S was incorrect.  Adjusted and new pic posted.

How articulated are these little buggers?

All pics taken using phone. :) Post-processing mostly done with Google Snapseed.

The VFC VF-1 battroid have next to no articulation. Only the shoulders can swing back & forth, and that's about it.

The GNU-Dou VF-1 is pretty ok. No double joint at knees or elbows like most modern figures, but what it has not found on other VF-1 figures is the chest can rock side to side. Perhaps the Revoltechs can do it too, but I haven't played with them yet.

The DX VF-25F Armored is just about the only thing missing from collection, so the VF100 continues to fill the gap. Will Bandai do a Revival version? But I'm not enthusiastic of another full fat bundle release - just standalone armor would be great.

One of the best ideas to come out of Frontier:  taking the idea of the GBP set-up, but allowing it to be used in all three modes.

Always loved the concept, and shows how the Macross universe is progressing with Valk designs.

The pre-renewal frontier toys were pretty awful, but you actually made it look good there. :good:

Yummy yummy yum


Is that a new can of spam or kept from years ago? lol

Bit of regret didn't get the PF YF-19..

Posted

The YF-29B is my second ever DX Chogokin purchase years ago. Certainly a very busy-looking valk, perhaps until the 31 came along.

Forward to today, I find it weird no super parts ever made for it. But it could be canon to the game as I never played it...

I was planning to wait for 3Z to release one of these but not sure if /when that would ever happen and this was cheaper anyways so I finally got a 1/60 Max 1A to add to the collection:

And one of the main reasons I wanted one was because I had this suit waiting for it for years:

The suit looks really great, almost indistinguishable to the original. :good:

Original show or original Yamato release?

Either way, I'm really happy to finally have the set together. I've had the suit for a few years and no proper Valk to wear it.
