The only official pics of the Elint you ever see are either Fighter or Battroid so that's what you usually see these toys in as well. I think all of the extra gear strapped to it in Gerwalk looks particularly striking.
Sorry for the late response, I don't usually take/keep photos of my Valks but I thought I'd help you out with the Gerwalk photos as that mode is not represented as well here. Static pose just from a bunch of different angles. I don't have any stands to do anything fancier with.
You're both wrong about Jack Archer. He was a Character they made up for the Robotech: Battlecry video game for the Gamecube, PS2 and XBox. Those were the default colors for the Veritech in the game and Toynami made a special toy for it.
I'm still waiting on QC issues from the 29 but it appears Bandai have finally convinced me to buy some Frontier Valks. Especially a Luca if only for the reason that I like the color and there haven't been green on Valk's since the original series/movie.
I'm surprised nobody has a hang up on the fact he keeps calling those of us who display our Valks on their landing gears "pussies." If he thinks there should be missile bays and not landing gears he can state why, but don't call me a pussy again.
Why would they be detailed? They're never really exposed in the show. The VF-25/29 have exposed, detailed ankles in the show so it would make sense for Bandai to match the lineart. The VF-19 has no such detail exposed.
The thing I just noticed about this thing is with the wings swept out it very much looks like a VF-19A, but a lot of people have been taking pictures with the wings folded in in fighter mode and it suddenly looks like a Blazer or one of the later VF-19 models.
So in the VF-17 thread Graham said they're shooting for end of 2011 but likely Q1 2012. Any rumblings on when some of the 19 variants will emerge Graham?
I find that sort of a weird take. My attitude has always been, "If it looks cool, I want one." I don't care who flew it, how much screen time it might have had or if it's at all unique.
The T isn't a radical departure from the other 17 variants so there might be a slight chance of seeing that. I'll bet the MAXL has a snowballs chance in hell. That one is a complete redesign.
