This is the macross version of the blue or gold dress debate ...

haha and not lol.

hehe...is there some way to ask mr kawamori for a final definitive answer? Does the buck stop with him?

My tot on it the word 'better' in the poll is open-ended. There are many aspects such as articulation, design, robustness, color, desirability, symbolism, price, rarity that make a toy better or more appealing to a collector. Some may place importance on one over the other. I would take charm as a merit on its own (although it may not be so important to anyone else), i do get your point a toy should be judged on its own merits and try not to involve non-factors. My point as sometimes those non factors influence one's preference over the other and as such are a factor, although not apparently paid most attention to. Nothing is exactly similar and sometimes little things such as preferring a kite over an SMS sticker can tilt it. Perhaps am thinking too much over my purchases

From a display/collection perspective it would make some sense. There is always the pull factor or charm of the toy itself. Sure, visually some may like the extra tampo/boosters but over time that excitement may fade, whilst you may pick out the YF out of your display again just to try drawing that dragon in the sky. Plus if arcadia releases an updated YF-21, i think the YF-19 would definately hold the edge over the advanced. Displaying the advanced against a YF-21 doesnt quite have the same kick. Am not saying design and engineering arent important, however there is that certain appeal of a toy that may play a role as well. Deep thinking aside, i didnt like how the boosters looked attached to the legs in battaroid mode/or how fidgety it was to transform, so i would choose the arcadia for its hassle free play.

i thk there is another angle in comparison...the fact that yf-19 is a proper lead mech in a beloved ova, whilst the other is a 5-sec? appearance that came out of nowhere....just felt it was in there just for bandai to sell a 19 version.... should you not have the 19 variant yet....i would go with the yf-19 just because of the spirit of Mplus.

the red reflectors on the nose are too thin! and should be dark red not vermillion! noooo.......
-
I thk even the old yamato vf-0a wasnt anime accurate in colors (the black stripes on wings/arms)...guess its a toss up which one you wanna get or upgrade...
-
can i ask the guru's... it looks like white stripes across the arms are anime accurate? (ending scenes where shin meets sara via naked valk) this is opposed to roy's which has black stripes...

@saburo awesome!! MMA - mixed mecha arts showdown hehe.. really brings out the differences in head sculpt doesnt it...precival looking more brutish with the shoulders whilst the 30 looks more nimble... Love those leg comparisons the intakes on the percival and the muscular 30 looking like he is gonna start kicking soon... thumbs up!! -
saburo that double stance is simply badass!! double thumbs up!! the percival/30 combo rocks..i like the how they compliment each other... i wonder if one face's off each other but focused on the heads only like a boxing poster... apologies in advance as its not a request but only a tot...

roy's antenna is looking kinda....longish?

I like the v0a shin color scheme so far ..it would be something different amongst the valks ... A valk with light grey/blue naval fighter colours with only a dash of dark blue area...i dont think there is another valk close to it in that color scheme if am not mistaken....
-
Does anyone think that they will include the fuel tanks and missle pod or *gasp* back booster ala "angel" version? the angel version picture was used introducing the 0a/0s mold.... http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=42180&page=1 wishful thinking over advertising....
-
hopefully ur right, i just dont want those arms to loosen too much from the packs... Some pis from hasegawa's RA kit off HLJs website..just to wet the appetite more... cant wait to open those missle pods and the back has a nice design...

I dont know if i can even afford 1 reactive armor let alone 2...
-
I do like the reactive armour design but from a toys perspective, i wonder how much weight those skinny bicep/triceps can take... the pads on both forearms are long and big...

The price is something not looking forward to

The sub title says for 0s/0a ....it might indicate a seperate pack to satisfy the buyers of bith valks?
