Key features
  • Super Parts: The most distinctive feature of the Super Messiah is its Super Parts, which include a large backpack with additional thrusters, wings with missile pods, and a massive head unit with a beam cannon. These parts give the Valkyrie a significant boost in firepower and speed, making it the ultimate weapon in Macross Frontier.
  • Full transformability: Like all Valkyries, the Super Messiah can transform between three modes: fighter, gerwalk, and battroid. This versatility allows it to adapt to any combat situation, whether it's dogfighting in space, taking cover behind buildings, or laying down heavy firepower on the ground.
  • Alto Saotome custom markings: The Super Messiah is Alto Saotome's personalized Valkyrie, and it features his signature red and white color scheme. The kit also includes decals and stickers for adding even more detail to the markings.

    Assembly Guide

    Skill Level.2 Basic modeling skills are required. Parental supervision may be required for younger children. These kits are generally suitable for beginner builders. A basic set of modeling tools are required including nippers, hobby knife, sanding sticks/paper, file, and tweezers. No glue is needed for the general assembly. Parts will need to be removed by using a pair of nippers and cutting the part away from the runner. Parts may require clean-up where they were removed from the runner.

    Gunpla (plastic model kits) are a snap together assembly and do not need plastic cement to complete. We always recommend having some plastic cement handy as a part of your modeler's tool kit. If you prefer to fix your model in a particular pose then plastic cement will work. Plastic cement is also perfect to use if a joint is loose. Apply plastic cement in a single thin layer and allow it to dry completely before test fitting. Re-apply more cement if necessary.

    Gunpla (plastic model kits) are designed to be built and displayed without the need for painting. Kits are molded in different colours replicating the colours of the actual mecha from the Gundam series. A technique called colour separation, where multiple parts of the model are molded in different colours on the same sprue is also used. Gundam kits often include stickers or water-slide decals that can be applied to the model to enhance its appearance. Some Gunpla kits come with pre-painted parts or parts with pre-applied details, such as metallic or translucent finishes.

    Many modelers still choose to paint their kits to customize and add further detail. Painting allows for more creativity and personalization, enabling modelers to achieve unique effects, weathering, and colour schemes that may not be available out of the box. However, the kits are designed to be enjoyable and visually appealing even without painting, making them accessible to a wide range of hobbyists.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What makes this version "Super" compared to the regular Messiah?

    The "Super" aspect refers to the inclusion of additional parts that transform the VF-25F into its Super Messiah configuration, known for its increased speed and firepower. This kit comes with: Super Parts: These attach to the fighter mode, forming aerodynamic wings and powerful boosters for enhanced flight capabilities. Large Beam Rifles: Two powerful beam rifles replace the standard Super Sylphid, packing an extra punch in combat. Missile Pods: Additional missile pods enhance firepower and recreate iconic Super Messiah scenes.

    Does it still transform between all three modes?

    Absolutely! You can enjoy the Super Messiah in all three classic VF-25 modes: fighter, Gerwalk, and Battroid. The Super Parts seamlessly integrate into each mode, offering a variety of display options and posing possibilities.

    Is this a good kit for beginners?

    While Bandai HG kits are generally beginner-friendly, the small 1/72 scale and the additional complexity of the Super Parts might be challenging for absolute newcomers. If you're new to model kits, a larger scale VF-25 might be a better starting point.

    Are there any unique Alto Custom details on this kit?

    Yes! Just like the regular Messiah, the Super Messiah version features Alto's personal touches: Custom Head Design: The head has a slightly different crest and antenna compared to the standard VF-25F. Shoulder Armor: The shoulder armor has additional markings and a slightly different shape. Color Scheme: The kit comes molded in Alto's signature blue and white color scheme with red accents.

    What tools and materials do I need to build it?

    You'll need basic hobby tools like nippers, tweezers, and sanding sticks. For painting, you'll need paints, brushes, and potentially masking tape. Remember, painting is optional, but it adds a personal touch and enhances the overall look of the model.
