The transformation uses the Shortcut Change system with selected interchangeable parts. Product images may show a painted sample. Actual finish may require panel lining, painting, stickers, decals, or top coat to achieve the same look. Small parts, hand parts, figure parts, landing gear parts, and stickers are included. Please handle carefully during assembly. Basic hobby tools such as nipper, sanding tools, tweezers, and panel liner are recommended. This is a 1/100 Macross model kit, not a completed toy or DX Chogokin figure. Release date and arrival timing may change depending on supplier schedule. DeToyz Note This HG 1/100 VF-31F Siegfried is a nice release for Macross Delta fans, especially if you prefer model kits over completed toys. The Shortcut Change system keeps the transformation concept manageable while still giving you the three key Macross display forms: Fighter, Gerwalk, and Battroid. Messer’s VF-31F also has a very clean aircraft profile, so it should look good even as a Fighter Mode display. For builders who enjoy extra finishing work, panel lining and careful sticker or decal work will help bring out the aircraft-style details and markings.
