  1. But it's not on the lineart you posted. Nor is it on the lineart of each of the three modes posted a few pages back.
  2. Somebody is going to have to circle this spot for me because I still don't know what everyone is talking about.

    Blast from the Past!

    I specifically have a beat up V.2 1J and 1S I keep around in case my nephew ever wants to play with any of my Valks. The rest are "don't touch" but he's usually pretty happy with just the 1J and 1S. My ex-girlfriend's son too, though he REALLY wanted to play with my 17's.
  4. I find it interesting that so many web shops are limiting sales to just one. I thought this was going to be made-to-order. Unless they're really worried about someone ordering ten then cancelling all of them it's a little odd (then limit to three or something.)
  5. Doesn't have to be Ravens...
  6. Except for the 1J all of Arcadia's new releases are Web Exclusive only. I think they've figured out what everybody was doing here and shut that right down. Now everything that isn't sold is going to be rare and $500+ unless it's reissued.
  7. I wonder if that means there won't be any other versions of the YF-19 too? Also, Olive Drab Gun pod looks sick!
  8. The close ups of those intakes are interesting. They definitely hold together/transform different. Hopefully they hold together well. Love the missiles attached. I wish we could see some pics of the 19 right side up with the missiles but I imagine they're a bit heavy for the resin prototype (or maybe they'll trickle more out over the next few days.) Seeing some on in Gerwalk (maybe Battroid?) would be interesting too.
  9. You're wrong. I've had a 19F sitting on my shelf in fighter with the gun pod attached since release and it's holding fine with no sagging. I'm not sure what the issue is with the gunpod. Really, the best complaint you could make is that it doesn't point straight ahead on the fighter, but hanging low in fighter won't affect it in any way.
  10. Good price, but they don't ship Fed Ex.
  11. I think you're off base. In most of the pics it's obvious the wings aren't swept all the way, likely due to being a loose resin model and not the finished product. You can see the gap. The VF-19P and Kai had the wings swept properly, why wouldn't this be the same?
  12. Oh crap, just in time for a furlough too.
  13. Guys, we go through this every time. Except for the shape of the leg/intake that entire section is exactly the same as the VF-19. There's no gap on the VF-19. The YF-19 in that photo is a resin prototype and doesn't hold together well. The thickness of that intake edge won't change, though once it's all sewn up it may look better. The gap in the knees is much improved over the VF-19, at least there's a sliding door there to cover it a bit. The VF-19 series doesn't have that at all. Unless you're looking at it from right below it'snot easy to notice anyway. I'm not sure there would be any way to fully cover that gap but I'm glad they've given it a shot. Between the VF and YF 19 they've specifically tried to improve the mold as much as they can (except for the ankles...)
  14. I thought Roberto Benini did a wonderful job in Son of Pink Panther...
  15. They have never mentioned anything about a fold booster.
  16. The mechanism that allows the legs to be rotated outward in Battroid won't allow that portion to be any smaller. Unless you want a stiff-legged version like the V.1.
  17. That thick intake is necessary for the mechanism that allows the legs to swivel in Battroid though.
  18. Wow, they were right that High Speed mode transformation is far more simple then expected. I'm still worried it makes the wings more brittle though. Kind of amazing how it can look so different in some respects and still obviously borrow a good chunk of components from the VF-19's. Too bad the Gun Pod still doesn't sit straight though. Based on how much they've reused and how those feet look it's safe to say I'm not going to be happy with Gerwalk, however.
  19. Hmm, the packs really just slide onto the pegs where the gunpod usually goes. There's nothing more to it than that. It's possible you have arm armor with a defect. That's the only thing I can think of. Can you take a picture?
  20. Hit that 80's sound hard! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tm-2UQYH4Ig
  21. Wow, he wasn't very old either.
  22. A thought I had, since it's made to fit the VF-19. In order to match with the rest of the Valk it's not going to be enough to paint it but make it shiny as well. It's cheaper to just buy a left and right at the same time.
  23. They weren't only a Chronicle Exclusive. I bought mine from LocusHK for $116 back in 2011.
  24. The previews for the first part got me excited, this new trailer did nothing though.
  25. You've gone too far.
