This set of adapters will allow you to display Takatoku and Bandai 1/55 VF-1 Valkyries on Archi Pro Macross Stands in all three modes: Fighter, Gerwalk, and Battroid. There are six adapters in total: Fighter, Armored Fighter, Super Ostrich Fighter, Elintseeker Fighter, Gerwalk, and Battroid.

Please note that these adapters are cradles. They DO NOT clip onto the toy. Instead they rely on gravity and the weight distribution of the toy in the various modes to hold everything in place. This prevents potential damage to the paint on the toy. It is possible to do relatively extreme banking poses with these adapters, but remember that the toy is just resting in the adapter. It can fall out if you turn the stand upside down or angle it too far in any direction.

The Armored Fighter, Ostrich Fighter, and Elint Fighter adapters feature tabs that support the legs at their ratcheted angles, so no more floppy legs when trying to display them in flight. The Elint adapter is designed so that it supports the forward-facing antenna at just the right distance behind and below the head. Recast resin Elint parts are pictured here because I had them handy.

I reused the very top part of the Meptoys 1/55 Fighter adapter for all four of my Fighter adapters. It is a clever way to hook over the metal swing bar; there was no reason to reinvent that.
