So, a few months ago, I ordered a 1/100 scale Macross Factory. It shipped free from Japan, included a couple repair bays, a couple mecha, support vehicles, and crewmen. A great deal. Here's my blog post on it. link
More at the blog link above. Best,

That looks so cool. I'm watching the Macross Saga as I type this, so it's timely. :) |

Thanks for that. I've always been interested in that kit, ever since I saw parts of it used a decade or so in a custom terrain piece on "Necromundicon". |

The Japanese figures look quite malnourished next to the 15's. |

Correct. But, different casting methods, different sculpts, different styles. Also, combat body armor vs. flightline coveralls would explain it. They should still get along fine on the tabletop. Best,

I may have to buy that for my gundams to live in. The gundam bays are pretty weedy in comparison. |

LOL, as a kid I had the Revell branded version of this kit, but after a day screwing around with it abandoned it in favor of my Zoids. Still have the Tomohawk but everything else from it is long gone. Thanks for the great post mate. |

Stop tempting me! ;-) It's a nice, nice kit! |

its a great kit well worth it weather you want it for 15mm or just to build. I have a couple of the originals and once of the new releases. the box art is fantastic.
Have fun John |

Lion in the Stars, it's just a standard Toynami 1/100 transformable Valkyrie I picked up a few years ago at San Diego Comic Con. They are very decent, for toys. I have a pair of VF-1As still in the box. I really wish I had picked up some of the 1/100 Battle Pods, especially the missile artillery pods. Best,
