I am not a Delta fan and wish it was a DYRL or M+ valk I would probably jump on it. Hmmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kajnrig Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 I still don't understand why they couldn't have used... like, actual Delta characters. This would be way more interesting with Freyja or Mirage or literally anyone from Walkure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seti88 Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 shouldn't the soul of the valk be a fig of kawamori-san then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridgebacks Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 So... is this pre-painted like the tomytec kit? Or you need to do everything yourself? I'm kinda tempting to get 1 for the only reason of having a smaller scaled 31J to put near my PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm kinda tempting to get 1 for the only reason of having a smaller scaled 31J to put near my PC. It’s highly doubtful that it’s pre-painted for the price that it’s going for. HLJ’s item description states it’s molded in color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much more reasonable prices than retail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanity is Optional Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 I'm interested by how much parts-forming this will involve. I guess removing the wing-folding mechanisms (apart from the inner-most pivot) simplifies that area at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaferMouse Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Ah, so much for my interpretation of the translation that these would look OK-ish unpainted. Thanks for the pics, no3l! All the better for making a 31C version, I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaferMouse Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 I bit the bullet and ordered two, one to keep stock and level-up my painting skills on, and one to try and turn into Mirage to pose with my armoured Klan Klang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanity is Optional Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 (edited) I am 100% going to repaint mine. For one thing she's getting some pants (at least shorts), for another going low-vis on the Valk. I have 0 idea why all the mecha-girls have to be wearing swimsuits or leotards with thigh-highs.

Not my thing, but I would be interested in seeing some classic SDF repaints. Maybe have her as one of the bridge bunnies. That would be cool!!!

I'll settle for having it look more like a cool robot/vehicle thing and less like a fanservicey fetish thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Focslain Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 (edited) Going to get two of these, one to build as is the other to mod, not sure how yet though. On that note does anyone know what scale the valk is? I want to see about supping it up. Edited January 11, 2018 by Focslain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As per HobbySearch info: - Scale: Non-Scale - Size: Overall length of the aircraft: approx. 205 mm Frame height: approximately 155 mm The Frame height is the figure since most shop says the figure stands at 15.5cm.

So that places it around.. *does mathing* 1/91 scale. Well since I'll have the 1/72 kit prior I can check to see how it looks, worst case I'll look at a 1/100 weapon pack.

kajnrig Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Has anyone on here bought/built one of these? Doesn't seem like reaction was all that hot to it. (For me it's the Girl that killed the kit.

CDJ only just shipped mine, so given the timing I doubt anyone's done a build yet. Mine are going to take some time since I suck at painting and I plan to paint them in JKai and C colour schemes. I think I'll be keeping the girls unpainted until I feel ready to make them Freya and Mirage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
