1:1 scale Macross Valkyrie Fighter

We need more full size replicas like this:

Full Scale Macross Fighter Is More Amazing Than You Can Imagine

I'm in love.

Me too. Me too.

Damn, that thing so needs to be hung up in some large atrium somewhere where it's better lit and can be seen from all angles. YUM.

Only way this would be cooler would be if they'd given it the lower torso too.

Awesome! Nice Minmay statue, too.

Apparently that's being worked. According to a couple of the commentors this Valk will be displayed in GERWALK mode some time in October.

Actually, the only way it would be cooler is if they had done a yellow trimmed VF-1S.

I want this!

I recall reading that only one location will have the full valkyrie outdoors. I thought it was going to be a VF-1 and not the VF-25. But both are cool even though I prefer the VF-1S in Hikaru colors.

I think Martyn just messed himself :P

Thats Awesome! But that guys Mom is gonna be ticked off when she sees what he has done to her basement.

and Roy Fokker's Skull leader. Macross is still great after all these years.

WOW! Now for the big screen to make it a Macross flight simulator!!!

WANT!!

If someone would do this with Mazinger-Z - I'd be all over it!!

this is an official thing being built in japan, not just some guy building it, and there are several 1:1 scale things being built or already built in japan, theres a full sized rx78-2 thats been touring around japan, theres a 1:1 scale evangelion head that was built for a theme park, theres another 1:1 scale rx78-2 thats lying down in the bandai museum, and theres a 1:1 scale strike freedom gundam being built right now.

This is unacceptable! Japan has snuck up on us in the 1:1 Scale and created a "Full Size" gap! I predict dire, yes DIRE, consequences if we do not reply in-kind to this threat.
GO! NOW!
Deploy your Table saws! Charge your cordless Drills! Lock your workbenches in Attack Position!

BUILD!

Awesome but a replica like this definitely deserves better than being shoe-horned into a space that small.

Holy heck, these Japanese hobbyists are building a 12-foot-tall pilotable mech

Holy Crap! I want to fly around in it!

I...WANT... ONE.....quick.. where can I sell my soul for one....

Where is the 1:1 SDF-1 to complement?

That would be even more impressive if it were actaully standing rather then laying down... but I do love the scale... mmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmm... sweet!
