Hmm, no clue, all the good Macross 7/Plus kits, ie the YF/VF-19, etc, are way
too expensive for me to ever consider. The 1/100 regular kits, the VF-11 and
VF-17 were okay, pretty basic. VF-11 doesnt even try to give you
transformation, the kit gives you a seperate fighter and battloid. OTOH, if
you
could manage to find the full armor conversion kit for it, then that would
rock, but
I digress...
Also, mind you, due to the differences in scale (Macross mecha are generally
smaller), a 1/100 scale Macross model is generally the same size as a 1/144
Gundam model (and still a little bit smaller). Therefore avoid the 1/144
Macross
models as they're pretty cheap and small. The 1/72s are the best, too bad they
never made an affordable Strike Valk in that scale...
