jenius Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 (edited) OOh sorry, you didn't get the memo, you're not allowed to cover Max's VF-1J with anything... it's to rare and not meant too be concealed further.

spanner Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 That looks mega! So is that an actual painted custom job or just some photoshop trickery!? The image is a little too grainy to properly tell.. looks bloody good though! But on the other hand Jenius is right.. these things are too rare to have covered up!

derex3592 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Very nice! Maybe if freakin Arcadia would give the people what they want and sell just the armor, we'd see a LOT more custom jobs. *siiiiggggghhhh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ver CO Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Finally got mine! This feels so light compared to the old versions. Glad I bought it, even if it almost broke the bank. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I agree with Spanner. That's how we want it. Fresh, nice, and tight. So after you inspect it, put it back in the box to keep it fresh and mint. Hehehe. Anyways, enjoy you 1J/GBP.

troyness Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Thanks guys! @troyness now I've fulfilled my part of the bargain! ...that u did sir!!Sorry for the very late reply, moving city/apartment/new job etc... Will do GBP next wk. Here are some pics I did 2 wks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Driver Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I have to say these look beautiful. Does the armor fit on a V2 Yamato? I can't imagine that it wouldn't. I have a v2 Yamato Roy Focker with Super parts, and I'm tempted to get a MtF VF-1J head from Kurisama and do my own VF-1J Focker Custom, If only I had the GBP armor...

wmkjr Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 (edited) Yes it should fit unless the pic from sh9000 a couple pics above is the Yamato version. Edited July 31, 2015 by wmkjr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tking22 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I got the Arcadia 1J GBP set, I've been meaning to put the armor up on the for sale thread, I just haven't gotten around to it. I'm just not sure what to charge, I'm obviously keeping the main box, but the armor itself is still sealed and brand new, did Yamato ever sell GBP as a stand alone set? Not that I would try to charge their prices for it, I'm just not sure what to even ask for it, it's cool and all, I am just not into armor at all, of any kind.

Loop Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 @Tking22, Yamato did at one time sell the armor alone. I can't remember the retail pricing for it as I ended up getting the version that had the missile launch effect parts. If you were to sell it, would you cut out the stickers that go with it also? I have never opened mine so I am not sure if the valk sticker sheet is totally separate from the armor sticker sheet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never opened mine so I am not sure if the valk sticker sheet is totally separate from the armor sticker sheet. I never really thought about the stickers, I didn't even consider that the armor had stickers for it too. Honestly, I never apply stickers to my valks, so I'd probably end up giving whoever buys the armor the whole sticker sheet, I don't really want or need it for anything.

Tking22 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I cracked my box back open, sure enough, Arcadia separated the sticker sheets. Easy enough, whoever winds up with my armor will get the armor sticker sheet. I gotta sort through messages though, 4 or 5 different members tried to jump on it.

claude grant Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 So Tking22, you gonna offer this in the For Sale or Trade section publicly, or is it looking like a private sale at this point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tking22 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 So Tking22, you gonna offer this in the For Sale or Trade section publicly, or is it looking like a private sale at this point? Private, I've gotten so many PMs now I'd feel kind of wrong dropping it into a new for sale thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tking22 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 So I'm having hell PMing people images of the armor, I distinctly remember hating MWs personal messenger for exactly this reason. I guess I have to post the pics here first before they're in my library or media list or something, then I can actually send them to people in PM. So here they are, a waste of time since the PM is terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

locidm Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Does anyone know if the CF 1J donned in armor ever appeared in SDF? I vaguely recall seeing it somewhere but can't be sure. If it did, which episode would it appear in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it did, which episode would it appear in? I think I've seen CF 1J in SDFM, but I'm not sure they were wearing any armor. I think in was on Earth after the big battle doing kind of police duty with the Zentraedis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I don't think a GBP 1J CF happened. Might be thinking of a model kit or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
