#Vf-1a

Was very excited to try the kitzconcept vf-1 series. Read whatever reviews I could find and the negatives I found I was either ok with or didn't think the comparisons being made were fair.

Saw several folk compare it to a something that costs triple, well yeah I'd expect that one to be better.

Some compared it to a transformer which aside from the 1982 toys, they've never been made by any company as a toy but as a "collectible"

Which has been the problem in my opinion with macross toys in general. The companies and Fandom seem to have this absolute obsession with everything being as close to the line art as possible to the detriment of something I can fly around my living room.

Personally I just want something I can transform reasonably quickly, that doesn't require any parts removal or swapping to transform. (and doesn't cost hundreds of dollars for a single unit)

With all of that in mind and the price of kitzconcept on sale I thought this would be a good avenue, and it would have been... If the leg didn't snap off when turning it into fighter mode for the first time. Looks like a very thin plastic peg is all that holds it on and that snapped.

I have some hi metal r, but I think for what I paid there's too many compromises, as again I hate parts swapping.

Someone please just give me a reasonably accurate macross jet that's built like a transformer.

Bandai please bring back or just slightly update the old 1/55 scale toys.

For the first edition Battledroids game, TCI packed in two mini-model kits, typically Nitto’s Dougram kits. Box art for the game featured artwork of the Tomahawk Destroid from Macross, repurposed to become the “Warhammer” battle mech. Several other Macross and Dougram designs were adapted to become the core battlemech designs for the game. As a result, the hero Dougram became the “Shadow Hawk” and the Soltech Round Facer became the “Griffon.” The Bigfoot, Blockhead, and Hasty became the “Battlemaster”, “Wolverine” and “Thunderbolt” mechs. Of the Macross designs, the VF-1S Super Valkyrie became the “Phoenix Hawk” and the standard VF-1S became the “Wasp.” The VF-1A became the “Stinger” and the Armored VF-1A/J became the “Crusader.” The Reguld became the “Ostoc,” or “Ostscout.” The Glaug became the “MAD-3R Marauder”. The Defender anti-aircraft Destroid became the “Rifleman,” the Destroid Spartan became the “Archer” and the Destroid Phalanx became known as the “Longbow.”. A Shoji Kawamori design from Crusher Joe, the Ostall hunter drone, grew in size to become the “Locust” light combat mech (the name being a play on the words “low cost”). The game was an immediate hit, but FASA ran into a snag as Lucasfilm claimed a trademark on the term “droid” due to its use in Star Wars. To avoid litigation, FASA changed the game’s name from Battledroids to Battletech when they published a second edition of the core rules in 1985. The second edition boxes did not include the two kits per box that the Battledroids set had featured. In place of this, TCI offered at least seven scenario expansion modules for the game, with each module containing two models (primarily 1/144 Dougram kits from Nitto or Nichimo 1/200 Macross kits) and a set of rules for a scenario that used the included kits. In addition to these modules, TCI shrink-wrapped printouts of Battletech mech stats onto the boxes of the original 1/144 Nitto Dougram kits for the designs that were incorporated into the game.

I’m not sure if it’s TCI or another enterprising distributor, but as a youth I picked up a Crusher Joe Minerva relabeled as a Leopard Dropship, packed with I think a Dougram and a Destroid kit at a convention

No collection of alien artifacts would be complete without some Japanese toys. The best are puzzling, gorgeous and demand to be played with. Anyone who can resist my Blood- Sucking Tool or Deathpion has to be terminally serious. Anyone who can transform my VF-1A Valkyrie from Battroid to Fighter without instructions has been practicing at home !

Look at it this way

HYPOTHESIS: CHRIST IS KING.

Since 1910 when the Edgar Brothers made their discovery, so for 114 years, educated Christians were aware of the 'Christ Angle' in the Great Pyramid of Giza but this ANGLE remained unknown to most Christians (see Chapter 2 for discussion of Christ Angle click on link in my profile). Hence our oldest-known monument, impossible to date, pointed to our most well-known messenger's birthplace: Jesus Christ.

As proof of divinity, I guess this proof was not startling enough to move vast masses of humanity to Christianity, and people felt confident in dismissing this 'coincidence' as a coincidence. Much harder after the 27th of July 2024 as I have added to the evidence with my proof in Chapter 1, that the Moon's diameter is linked to the distance Giza-Church of his birth. So not only does the Pyramid point to his birthplace but the distance to that birthplace is written in the Cosmos/SPACE (ie. in the diameter of the Moon). Add to that the very bizarre characteristics of our Moon and the many quotes relating the Moon to prophesy in the Old Testament and I believe what you are left with is: AN UNDENIABLE PROOF.

CHRIST IS KING. Messenger Status PROVEN.

Sincerely,

Chris

VF-1A Super Valkyrie

[nhaneh]

Recalling I had this entire aside in mind for my macross/mech OC Jenny Brink where due to the UN Navy/Airforce and nascent UN Spacy using an overtechnology-enhanced F-14D+ Tomcat variant as their fighter of choice, Jen's flight training included a brief period of practicing ways to recover from sudden jet engine compressor stalls, an issue that notoriously afflicted the original engines of the initial F-14A variant, even though this issue wouldn't have been present on any of the F-14s she herself flew.

(worth noting: Kara Hultgreen, the first US military pilot to die in a crash, did so due to her F-14A suffering a compressor stall during final approach)

also while I never quite decided where exactly Jen is from outside of "somewhere in europe", I do like the idea of her initial pilot training before being put in an F-14 might have been in either a Saab 39 Gripen/Griffin or a Eurofighter Typhoon - both being about the same size as the VF-1A Valkyrie she'd eventually fly on board the SDF-1 Macross, and thus significantly smaller than the comparably sizeable F-14
