Gotta say that VF-0S in blue is pretty nice and unique, because the form is still very close to VF-1, so it is very fitting for Max. And it is also never been done before. I just don't feel like spending that much on a HMR valk, almost twice the price of the VF-1 I bought before... At least for other HMR line, you do get some decent metal or size. This one, you barely get any, from what I can tell.

Guys, I got HMR Orguss and it's excellent. The size is quite perfect for playing with and transforming. I wish it didn't require a part swap between modes (it's a piece that attaches to the back that locks the shoulders in different places depending on the mode) but aside from that it's a solid toy that you can play with w/o worrying about paint chips (unlike Megahouse Variable Action). The sculpt and proportions looks good. Comes with a flight stand that requires a diff attachment depending on mode, similar to other Macross HMR. PROS: - Good sculpt and proportions - Diecast joints and very good articulation - All the modes look great, transformation is not difficult after 1st time - Good size for desk toy and very sturdy figure CONS: - Not perfect transformation, requires 1 part swap for each mode: robot - gerwalk/tank - flyer - Mostly unpainted plastic...but doesn't look cheap, no paint chipping worries either - Crotch cockpit cover doesn't clip or lock in place in bot mode, so it will get displaced during handling often - Head antenna looks very fragile, extra replacement not included
I'm thinking of displaying the HMR in front of the Megahouse in a different mode, and eventually get a Moderoid to display in yet another mode, and I will be done with Orguss, unless I can get my hands on a Takatoku vintage in good condition.

Totsugeki Love heart!!! Though not sure I want to buy one. It is a very interesting entry and design in the Macross series, but also is one that look very out of place from the rest and look more like a super robot.  The only Fire Valkyrie I own is a cheapy model kit I never even finish building from 20-30 years ago. But I made sure I painted in that face and mouth on the sprues LOL, since it was so iconic. |

Yeah, the flaming red is sorta different and so is the face of the mech.
