Alright guys so I am going to be putting up the gallery for the VF-0A with Ghost Booster. First up is the box pixs which actually came out kind of blurry. At my new apartment I don;t have my lil photo shoot area anymore so I need to toy with a few settings and lights, anyways the box isnt too Important but I always try and include it. The other pictures are much better looking I promise. Anyways here is part one...more to fallow tomarrow.

speaking from experience, it IS damned cool. I haven`t gotten round to transforming that baby yet but in jetmode alone with all the armament it looks badass.

WHOA THAT LINK IS AWESOME! I wish this site used underlines, I'm partly colorblind with my UV protection glasses on and didn't see it.

Can you tell me anything about that toy? Do you have it? Mind you - this would be for Dad, not (most of) my children; my 10yo daughter might be allowed to use it but she's already careful and owns her own Optimus Prime and ordered her own Jazz (deluxe movie ed.) online.

Basically, the figure just has to be solid enough for regular play, which is: never banging into each other, ever, but getting transformed a lot and having it's limbs pointed directions, and being moved about while being held carefully.

Just got my 1/48 low visibility (camoflaged). I got him for $140 at BBTS thanks to a sale.

Now I am thinking about getting an armor set, so I can have a few variations on display. Does anybody have the Valk Armor and what do you think of it? I think it looks like a cool accessory, although, I don't think that I would want all my Battroids outfitted with it. It looks a bit clumsy and bulky, and obviously takes from the poseability.

I just got a 1/55th Bandai VF-1A!

Now it feels a lot like the old Jetfire, the G1 copy, looks a lot like it, but what the hell is up with the crappy head, and green square eye? Totally ruins an otherwise cool fig...

This is the Valk although I was looking for head shots of it and didn't find any...and I didn't take any yet.

What do you guys think of these if you have any? I'd get more, but the head on this one, kind of turns me off. Maybe I should just stick to the 'MUY EXPENSIVO' 1/48th only...

I'm sure it was, I was just trying to get Hicharu's plane...

Looks like this will be a good candidate for gerwalk mode.
