sh9000 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 The Fan Liner and Fan Racer are lovely. @ScrambledValkyrie that’s a good idea to put the Fext Hobby seats around a table for the pilots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say I’m always amazed by the perfect symmetry in the poses of your valks and how the camera is positioned exactly head on for shots like this one.

Shizuka the Cat Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Soooo..... @jenius When are we getting an HMR VT-1 review? *grin* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Probably not soon... the toy releases have been coming too fast for me and there's a holiday coming up and an MW convention. Let's see, things to do in no particular order: A) FEXT Hobby Owl One B) Bandai DX VF-31S Arad C) Toynami Robotech action figures D) Bandai HMR VT-1 E) Arcadia M&M and M&M PF (plus I gotta redo those transformation videos) IF I could do one a week (which honestly, I can't) that would already put us in October and there's going to be at Bandai DX YF-19 dropping in September and possibly a ThreeZero Melkia Scopedog.... soooo, I've got a bit of a backlog! A little self-plug here, I do have a Facebook page now where I regularly ask what I should review next. There's like nobody on it since it's new so it's pretty easy to manipulate the order to your liking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is quite a bit a prep on the figure and camera alignment before I take the shots and also there is some slight angle adjustments during post-processing.

amptor Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I get one of mine in the mail today. A bit disappointed in hearing that the fastpacks and armor don't match but hopefully it is great in person like the VE-1. I really like what some of you guys have done with your VT-1s. Keep up the good work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amptor Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I just got one in the mail and the color variation isn't really too bad. I can see it. I transformed it into gerwalk mode and it looks really cool, using anime style hands. Will probably check it out in fighter mode later on. Now hoping they come out with the VF-1D and I'm considering buying another VF-1A super. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The HMR VF-1s are a bit bigger than 1/100 scale, I think they were closer to 1/85th or something? I know Jenius did the math for his reviews. I imagine 1/100 decals would work fine, if you can find them, but depending on the sizes of the individual markings, 1/72 military aircraft decals may work as well.

tekering Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Heads up, guys. R2KF's re-pop of Moscato Models' "Kamujin" resin figure scales perfectly with HMR. At least, as depicted in the anime... ...as unrealistic as that may be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beatsing Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Hi, just got my ostrich. The right foot heel doesn’t rotate as much as the left foot towards the rear. See the photos. So it has diffulty standing in the batroid amd a hard time in gerwalk. Do you guys know how to fix the right foot heel? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardlyNever Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Is it full extended? It looks like it isn't extended there. It might be pretty stiff out of the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatsing Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Hi, yes both are fully extended. the heel can rotate to close up for flight mode and can open but doesn't rotate as far back as the other. it rotates forward ok though.
