ValkAddict Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Thanks @505thAirborne for the info! Sorry for missing the obvious. Looks like I can only order white colored sets from here (wish they had cream color), https://www.shapeways.com/product/DV3KRQCTN/kanzen-henkei-1-60-scale-fighter-variable-hinge?optionId=3675956 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I've used 4 sets of these shoulder replacements and they almost appear to be a bit stronger than the factory parts. Here's the backside of the set, using the site's 3D viewer: 3 hours ago, ValkAddict said: Thanks @505thAirborne for the info! Sorry for missing the obvious.

Saw them in the "how to" video, then went to the 3D viewer and flipped the parts over to make sure they were there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a used Yamato 1/60 VF-1D with broken shoulders and need replacement shoulder hinges. TIA for any help. EDIT: Also, the photo of the part does not seem to look exactly like the broken shoulder hinge. The 3D artist who did that is a long time member of this forum — @VF5SS.

Radioguy Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Has anyone designed a Yamato 1/48-compatible VF-1D head for printing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope it's out there.. I was able to score a resin cast one , along with the rest of the 1-D conversion kit. some years ago. I still need to get to that project..

Haven't seen one before but I'll do you one better by suggesting somebody design an all new VF-1D conversion kit for the Yamato 1/48's.

Radioguy Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 True, any VF-1A/J/S with a 1D head would be a mongrel without the right cockpit, but I'd grab one if a full kit weren't on offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
