Cool, something I didn't know about the

Apparently, I'm a dumb ass and never tried to remove the AMM-1 missles for the rack but as it turns out each of the missles are removeable. This means you can pose the craft partially loaded to simulated in mission loadout. That's really cool cause I don't think any of the other Valkyries have this feature.

Just letting everyone know since I haven't seen this mentioned before.

hey did you know the box missles are actual storage boxes? I usually put the gunstrap in there if my valks are in fighter mode.

You can read Graham's rewview of the Hikaru VF-1A and find that the intake cover and a whole missile cluster (disassembled) will fit in one of the "boxes" of the UMM-7. I've independently tested this and can confirm. ;)

Some of my 1/60th AMM-1 missiles have the ability detach form the missile rack maybe partly due to QC inconsistencies. The HCM and MPC have this ability as well.

The MPC AMM-1 are NOT removeable. I managed to pop one off my "Ben" MPC" but the rest are glued tight. It is not a design feature. The same applies to the Yamato 1/60.

as for the MPC I was able to get the missiles off the Miria's veritech.

Then it's not a consistent design feature in the toy line. Maybe Toynami got cheap with glue. Maybe they finally thought hey that's a cool feature after seeig the 1/48. Who knows?
