Any 1/48 yamato weathered fans out there?!?
 

So after being a fan of Macross since the 80's I finally purchased my first yamato VF-1S rick hunter "weathered" Valkryie, and have been looking for the "super and strike" parts (weathered) everywhere!! no sign of them. Does anyone know if Yamato will release these parts anytime soon???? i read that they had a while back but only as a sweepstakes/raffle thing. I love my 1/48 but hate to sell it to start with the 1/60 weathered collection w/ SSP. Need advice! OH, and does anyone here know where is the fastest way or place I can purchase replacement parts for the 1/48 weathered yamatos??

Those are impossible to find. I think they were an online exclusive if I'm not mistaken. I'm selling my regular super strike parts for the 1/48 on eBay. Make me an offer if your interested.

Were any parts broken? Getting replacement parts might be hard, but it depends on whom you purchased it from. If you ordered from HLJ and/or Overdrive, they may be able to help.

If your interested. My wife and I started a custom/production company. From the images it looks fairly easy to weather the parts. If you use the buy it now option I'll weather them for you.
