Dimis Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 If you want to see pictures of the actual product, not the ones published by Yamato, then I can't help cause I didn't get them. I can show you pics of Focker´s weathered VF-1S (has the same weathering aproach) Hikaru's VF-1S has shading but no pannel lines. Thank you for offering. I have managed to find random pictures of the VF-1S 1/60 but not the VF-1As obviously because they are less popular. The thing is i'm not crazy about the off white of the DYRL scheme so the weathering makes it more appealing to me. If i get one i'll post photos.
KiriK Posted July 25, 2012 Author Posted July 25, 2012 See, this thread is perfect for winning this contest: BigBadToyStore Photo Contest I see a few people on here that definitely might have a chance at winning... ahem... kicker.... I might just enter your photos for you and when you win 1st place, be sure to buy me something from BBTS. =]
ron5864 Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 The first thing I setup in my new home after moving in is the TV and the Macross displays in the living room. Nothing fancy yet. I just unpacked a few of the 1/48 VF-1s, 1/72 Zentraedi mecha and a 1/60 VF-25F. Very clean and simple display for now. I will probably put other Macross stuff on display in the office room. But that is later. The three Macross dioramas are packed and stored in one of the the guest rooms. I will hopefully be able to bring those at the next MacrossCon on October.
MichaelS Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 Guys where are you getting these stands and shelfs?
Benson13 Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) Guys where are you getting these stands and shelfs? Ikea, the display case is called the Detolf. And Ron, so far so good on the display. Real clean looking. Will you have a large diorama area set aside as well? Edited July 26, 2012 by Benson13
MichaelS Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 Ok now how about the model stands? And thank you for that info.
Benson13 Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 Ok now how about the model stands? And thank you for that info. The clear acrylic ones with 3 prongs are from Flightpose.com. I just got a few and they are good to hook.
MichaelS Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 Just for good measure are there any other companies I need to look at for display and pose case and stands?

I really like how you put the books behind their corresponding VF.
ron5864 Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 I really like how you put the books behind their corresponding VF. Thanks Stark. A blank background looked a little dull, so I put the Master File books to good use. As for the display stand MichaelS, they are flightpose display stand by lost and found toys. Here is link to those stands at HLJ. http://www.hlj.com/product/LFTFP-400 I got those display stands from HLJ and eBay.
brenttoyou Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 http://flightpose.com/ here is their website. They are US-based so I imagine it would be much cheaper to buy directly from them.
MichaelS Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 Does Yamato still sell the arm stands? I like the flightpose alot but wouldn't mind some of the arms as well.
Benson13 Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 Does Yamato still sell the arm stands? I like the flightpose alot but wouldn't mind some of the arms as well. Good luck on the Launch Arms. If you can get one for under $60 snatch it up. They aren't really hard to come by so much as finding one with a good price.

I love the weathering job you did on the 25, 1J, and 11. Did you use an airbrush for that?
