The Hasegawa 65717 1/72 scale VF-1 Super/Strike Valkyrie provides a compact build that preserves the form and paneling of the original design. It is engineered to suit hobbyists who enjoy careful assembly and personal finishing work.
This kit uses well defined molding to keep parts true to shape and easy to fit. Colour separation on sprues reduces initial painting needs, but adding paint and washes will reveal more depth and detail. Fit is generally precise, which cuts down on trimming and filling.
The model offers selected articulation points that allow for visually convincing poses and hint at the Valkyrie transformations. While not as movable as action figures, the kit supports attractive display stances without complex mechanisms.
Modellers can pursue simple touch ups or full paint schemes, plus weathering for a more lived-in look. Decals included with the kit provide marking options straight out of the box, and extra aftermarket decals can expand squad markings.
As a compact and accurate kit, the Hasegawa 65717 VF-1 Super/Strike Valkyrie rewards careful finishing and is a practical choice for collectors who enjoy customising small scale mecha.
