Lonely Soldier Boy Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 Beoutiful! Hey. I've never seen that VF-1S before. Who and when released it? Does it transform? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joke-machine Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 That is soo cool! So did you just cut the legs so they are shorter, and basically used the rest of the kit stock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solscud007 Posted February 23, 2004 Author Share Posted February 23, 2004 Lonely Soldier boy: This is the Famous Joke Machine. Yes it is fully transformable. Its transformation sequence is identical to Bandai's 1/55 series. (Bandai made this toy back in the 80's) There are slight changes like the cockpit rotates to reveal the heat shield and the fast pack and armor plug in rather than clip on. Yep. mostly stock. I trimmed the radar a tad but other than that thats all you need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 OH please tell me there is a recast in the works fo this. It look awsome Solscud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jawjaw Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 That looks really good! I wouldn't mind having one of those myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowlightman Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 That looks really good Nick, looks like it's not too difficult a mod either. How long did it take you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoBe-Patt Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 O snap!! that's pretty cool there nick! I would love to have a recast of these if you are planning on making one. Are you planning on making the regular regult/battle pod? that'd be great to see all three versions done. Can't wait to see this painted.

Solscud007 Posted February 23, 2004 Author Share Posted February 23, 2004 I dont think a recast is possible since this is a model kit. Too thin to recast I would imagine. In terms of difficulty, as long as you have a mitre box and a razor saw its relatively easy. Zip kicker seemed to have a slightly negative effect. It seemd to start to eat the plastic. Also I woudl get cracks in the plastic. MAybe its the glue. Not sure. But I lost a knee joint to this and had to re build one out of ball socket joints. Only took like a night and the morning to slap this rough build together. Im sure in teh hands of much mroe skilled artisans like kidk or WM Cheng this would look much better. But I will paint it and wait and see what I do next. I have a gimmick for this little guy to make him cuter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
