I hope they push the release back one month and release it at about the same time as the YF-19/FB combo. I might get lucky and save on shipping.

I like it too. Looks like he fell into a bath of chemicals and tried to cover it up in a slighty sick way. In other words, realistic.

I meant the cover design, I could send you some dvd boxes from the Netherlands but I think they're available in the States also. I'll send you a PM so we can discuss the details.

Nice! Where do I sign up? *EDIT* So it's not going to include the other stuff Shawn mentioned? If you need dvd covers and such, I'd be willing to help out.

Nice work on posing it in the cobra manoeuvre.

at very low altitudes.

I usually don't transform my VF's all that much when I find a good pose to display them in, but I'm gonna have a hard time choosing a mode/pose to display the SV-51 in. It may take a lot of transformations to decide what mode to display it in, which kinda scares me because of the fragility this toy will almost certainly have. G-man, could you ask the Yamato gents what changes/improvements will be made to the YF-19 for the FB combo? Thanks!

That whole section connecting the wing to the die-cast piece seriously needs to be POM. The combined weight of the wing and the booster, missile/fuel pod, missiles is hanging from that single piece of plastic.

Beautiful! And the same goes for the A an B versions.

Agreed. Even though I think it's pretty cool of Yamato to add the stand in the package. Looks scary doesn't it?

Looks like the Battroid and Gerwalk SV-51 in Danny Choo's pics are made out of different material than the fighter SV-51. I think the Fighter version in the pics is still the resin prototype. Graham, any news on weather the canopy on the production toy will have the gold effect or not?

I guess this also means the end of the Force-FX sabers. I was thinking of getting one of those.

I stand corrected.

How so? I've never seen any boxart prior to the release of the toy. Although I must say I'm a relative nOOb when it comes to collecting compared to some of you.

The SV-51 battroid pic looks a bit weird to me. The chest is positioned very far in front of the point where the legs attach. Looks like a hunchback.

Found some more pics of the SV-51 in all three modes on Danny Choo's site.

OMG! How will I get trough the week without those scans?! Now I'll have to scrutinize those old pics all over again to see if I can find anything wrong with the design so I can b!tch over it in this thread! j/k Don't sweat it Hurin, someone else will probably post them in the coming days/weeks.

Sara: "Waddaya think? The swelling should go down in the next couple of days so don't pay any attention to that. The next operation is in two weeks and then they'll take away these two here."

Looks like HLJ already sold all of their first batch. They have them listed as backordered.

I do. I have the Shin/Ghost combo, the YF-19/ booster combo and the SV-51 on pre-order and I already know they will send the me in three seperate shipments even though their releases are only a month apart. Nonetheless, I'm going to be one happy boy after this summer. I just realized, I need to get another Detolf. Be sure to post pics!

He, nice find, didn't see this before now. Thanks.

Does this look infected?

I'd buy the regult version. The ship version is just a little too nerdy.

I hope there is no switch and that you just have to twist the back end of the booster. (Just like with a vibrator )
