Ridden001 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Canned air is what I use. I also use it on parts, just before painting to remove dust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

borgified Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Here's another thought to get your Macross collection cleaned. If you have either a canine/feline in the house, strategically put a small dab on their favorite treat on top of the valk and they will lick it clean, however you might get either pet fur or slobber on it though!

I know it's simply playing on a different color scheme but I am waiting for this, just because; Any chance for August release this year? What would Bandai possibly add to entice customers for this version like the decal sheet included with kakizaki.. and I would like to see an upgrade to the existing peg system for the arms and legs, more stability in fighter mode. About damn time Bandai. Edited January 28, 2021 by Angesdad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavinrac Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 I'm waiting for this too. It's also got a different head than the TV VF-1A (and i like the movie version better) Regarding that photo. I was just thinking the other day one really cool thing they Have not done in any VF-1 toy yet is to make the nosecone rock forward so you'd have the dynamic 'crotch thrust' hahah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronocidal Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Didn't the Bandai 1/72 transforming kit have a waist joint that could pull out and swivel around like that somewhat? Not that it was stable or anything, but I think it at least tried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
