ComicKaze Posted December 22, 2003 Share Posted December 22, 2003 I guess my 1/48 froze in transport and the glue was weakened or something because a different panel fell off my wing. I guess this helps Yamato mold the hardpoints. Just thought I'd post it because I haven't seen anybody show this piece before. Might help some customizers if they want to add internal detail to the wings or maybe mount lights or modify the hardpoints. It's a ready made panel that can be opened or displayed as a maintenance hatch or a new aileron/airbrake or just let you access the hardpoints.

UN Spacy Posted December 22, 2003 Share Posted December 22, 2003 I'll second the notion.....the same thing happened to my Hikaru 1/48 (first edition). A little superglue to the peg holes and it was fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander McBride Posted December 22, 2003 Share Posted December 22, 2003 Anyone know where I can get a new one? That piece disappeared some time ago from Max. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zentrandude Posted December 22, 2003 Share Posted December 22, 2003 (edited) it fell on the floor when i took the valk out of the box and moved it to my desk. had to search for it since the distance from the box and my desk is across my house.

Mr March Posted December 22, 2003 Share Posted December 22, 2003 That's cool. I always wondered if that odd section within the wing was actually a seperate piece or just an over done panel line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brainiac_08 Posted December 23, 2003 Share Posted December 23, 2003 happned to me on my Roy 1s and my low vis used some super glue and it looks as good as new nothing to be worried about -J.J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpaz Posted December 25, 2003 Share Posted December 25, 2003 The same happened to me the very first time I tried to install the missiles on -exactly- the same point (same wing, same piece pop-off). As sithlord stated, glue it again. No problem since then, and I use to play with my 1/48 as much as I can... (yep, since I don't have any macross enemy, starscream is always a victim in my dogfights... ). No mercy!!! Decep**** will be defeated!!! (yamato, please, release the q-rau! My mental health is under serius risk!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Randy Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 yeah i got that problem too i sometimes imagine i have a 1/48 glaug to shoot..mcpaz you may notbe the only one that may wind up in a padded cell. seriously that happened to the right wing of my vf1a i lightly applied 2 dots of pva paperglue so i could remove it again if i want to play a valk repair scenario.

kidkorrupt Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 (edited) hey cool!!!! i know some people are annoyed by having this piece pop off but i'm sure there are just as many others who will get there exactos to try and pop it off methinks some people are already thinking of adding cool stuff in there. at the very least maybe anazasi or someone can make some wing detail decals to throw in there Edited December 31, 2003 by kidkorrupt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
