Valk009 Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Hi guys, Here are some pics (well first finished piece) on a very rare 1/100 variable IHP made YF-19 kit my modelling friend has been working on. From what I know, nobody has seen a completed kit besides those taken at the Wonder Festival many years back! The kit has undergone some modifications to look more true to the original YF-19 lineart. Those who are familiar with the SHE YF-19 variable kit will immediate see that the nose piece transformation is done more detailed and sophisticated...more suprises will follow, so keep track on this thread! Enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignacio Ocamica Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Glad to see that kit being built. Thanks for sharing!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebastian Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Yeah... keep them comming, we wanna see this FOR SO LONG! cant whait to compare the Bat mode with the SHE Kit (proportions and so on. By theway, did your friend mentioned anything about the poseability and it he can stant in Robot mode without falling appart?? I am really interested in how strong this kit is. I also see screws... so It is like a SHE kit or you will need to Pin-glue him?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Less than Super Ostrich Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 would be very nice to see this one built. Good luck Valk009! I love your work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fly4victory Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Work looks great. Will you produce an english text guide for construction? I have the SHE version and it is still in the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valk009 Posted April 28, 2006 Author Share Posted April 28, 2006 (edited) Okay, the kit is finally put together and here are all the three modes! Fighter mode topd and bottom view Edited April 28, 2006 by Valk009 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valk009 Posted April 28, 2006 Author Share Posted April 28, 2006 ...Gerwalk mode... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valk009 Posted April 28, 2006 Author Share Posted April 28, 2006 ...and Battroid mode! The size of the kit in fighter mode is almost the same as a Hase VF-1 fighter, so not too bad and all mode come displayed pretty neatly, especially in fighter mode, which is far nicer than the SHE version imo.

Viceland Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Nice, very nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jardann Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 That is an incredibly well engineered little kit! The only issue I see is the gap right behind the intakes that kind of stands out in fighter mode. Even with that one little issue, I looks like this kit has great proportions throughout all three modes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight26 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Isn't the Yamato YF-19 suppossed to be based on this kit somewhat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

to177 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 (edited) Been lurking in this thread and it's nice to see someone actually building the IHP kit. Nice build up and definetly look better then the SHE kit. BTW, how big is the 19 in battroid mode? to177 Edited April 28, 2006 by to177 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VFX Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 I really have to give you credit. THe combination of soft resin and hard metal screws has alway frightened me off from such kits. Really good job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
specr0101 Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 The Battroid looks very nice! So the landing gear detach from the model when it's in Gerwalk and Battroid mode? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twoducks Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 WOW! I must say that Battroid mode looks great! It doesn't have the thunder thighs other YF-19 have (specially the Yamato one). Where can you get that model? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valk009 Posted May 1, 2006 Author Share Posted May 1, 2006 Yep, landing gears will have to be removed when transforming from fighter mode to any of the other two modes! As with what paint job, well, not too sure yet but most likely the original YF-19 colours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Goddamn... a kit just like that one just sold on Yahoo Japan Auctions for Y63,500 http://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/86149630 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neptunesurvey Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 Damn, Y63,500. I'll drop $300 on a rare kit, but never that much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valk009 Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 Should have maybe sold mine instead Btw, there is some guy loading off all his SHE kits, even the rare VF-19 Blazer and the VF-22 are on offer, ending in like 4 days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Can any one help? JOHN Ummm... What would you have us do? You know as much as the rest of us at this point. If you want to know more, PM Valk009 and ask him directly. If that doesn't work, just sit back and wait. Continuously bumping the thread obviously isn't helping any.
