I don't disagree, but what you're saying is also an oversimplification from a narrative point of view. It's a spectrum that we, as the consuming audience, come to some some sort of rough consensus about.

I’m with Screaming Man on this. The “I thought it was for the best” justification doesn’t exactly rule out a lot evil, except perhaps cartoonish supervillainy. It’s a bit of pedantry.

Nice, that’s a lot more detail on this topic than I was aware of. Thanks. -

So - valkyries have a lot of very thin and pointy bits, e.g. things that are probably control surfaces in flight mode. When they're in battroid mode, assuming they get into some sort of hand to hand combat, wouldn't those surfaces get subjected to tremendous torsion or other stresses if, say, a battroid falls down? Are those surfaces designed to bend to absorb stress (other than the weird wing material we see with YF-21)? Do they just snap? -
Nice, thank you!

Do you know if it still requires the little clip in the legs to hold together in armored fighter mode? I couldn’t see in the video.

But for how long...?

I agree. It just ruins -19 toys IMO for not a lot of benefit.

Your skin is weak! I’ve trained so that mine is like steel. Also, I can no longer move.

I dunno man, my Max YF-29 is vastly better off with the chest lock and hip ratchets than my two previous YF-29’s.
-
The revivals have hip ratchets and battroid chest locks that the renewals do not, so it's possible.
-
For me it depend on two things: 1) fix the hip collapsing in battroid without spacer, and 2) fix the tolerance of the integrated back brace so the back of the gerwalk doesn’t droop. That would be a sale.

Are these fold boosters single-use? Even if not they seem to get ejected before combat. How are these fighters supposed to return from the decapitation strike missions that some of them (YF-19 etc) are designed for?
