Mechamaniac Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 Graham gave me these to post so here they are.... Enjoy! Here are the images of the FP & Booster Set that will be available separately... As always, these are also available in the Yamato Toys section. As Graham likes to say, Macross World is more than just forums after all... Quote
baronv Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 Nice, I do wish the booster was some other color than green. Quote
kensei Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 If they design the VF-17 and the VF19's, they can use this design again. They were thoroughly used and abused in Macross 7. Quote
Mechamaniac Posted February 11, 2007 Author Posted February 11, 2007 so, why is this worth 50 bucks? Apparently, the price of LED's took a steep climb in HK resulting in the price hike. Quote
Arthurius Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 I think the yf-19 looks really nice in robot mode with the fp, and the booster is nice too, eventhough it could have been another color. Now, does this light up??? Quote
Guest sh002 Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 (edited) The cost of the fp and booster looks to be almost double when bundled with the YF-19. I just noticed some of the comparison pics of the YF-19 with the Bandai Macross 7 Valkyries on the review page. It looks badass with the VF-17. Yamato please make one. It looks as if Bandai's Fire Valkyrie head was a little larger, it wouldn't look as bad in battroid mode. Nice pics. Edited February 11, 2007 by sh002 Quote
David Hingtgen Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 He gave them to you and not me to post? Though with me currently stuck on dial-up, maybe that was for the best. Quote
Mechamaniac Posted February 11, 2007 Author Posted February 11, 2007 Well, I meant post to the main site, but I figured I might as well do them all and get it out of the way. If you're on dial up, shouldn't this page STILL be loading for you? Quote
1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 Haha dial up. The days when people's porn would load the image one line chunk by one line chunk at a time. Quote
Scream Man Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 i like the pcaks n all, and i want a second 19 to csutomise.....but its not worth what they're asking... i must ponder this seriously... Quote
Briareos Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 Does the fast pack stand alone come with Yang? It seems that only the YF-19 fastpack combo comes with him. Quote
Mechamaniac Posted February 11, 2007 Author Posted February 11, 2007 Does the fast pack stand alone come with Yang? It seems that only the YF-19 fastpack combo comes with him. Yang is shown in both flyers, so I would imagine so. Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 I like what I see. I'm getting them but will pay HK prices Quote
Twoducks Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 Same cost as the strike/fast packs... which have a lot more parts and even internal detail... Cool, that means the dildo must have a perpetual motion engine to power it and the leg armour mass shifting to hide big ass missiles!!! Yamato should create a new logo/mascot for this kind of releases. A little cow being milked comes to mind. “The new Yamato 1/60 YF-19 Fast Packs & Fold Booster, milking cow approved†Quote
odr78 Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 (edited) Hmmmm... the legs in fighter mode are like the VF-1 with the FP... The legs are ( a little ) folded to get the armor parts.... then, the shoulders aren't locked with the legs...... Edited February 11, 2007 by odr78 Quote
eugimon Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 Hmmmm... the legs in fighter mode are like the VF-1 with the FP... The legs are ( a little ) folded to accomodate the wing root going across the middle of the legs in fighter mode. The leg FP would look right wonky in battroid mode if they didn't do the beng thing. Blame kawamori's magical line art for this. Quote
big F Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 Foldo Boosto Only another 120 bits or so until we get a whole VF-17 Quote
yf19vsyf21 Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Bummer. I thought they weren't going to sell fastpack in a combo with the 19. I'm stuck now. Quote
1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 (edited) It was pretty obvious they would do it eventually though don't you think? How hard would it have been to put FP on the toy? This is why I wish yamato wasn't secretive because if you know ahead of time, people can plan better what they want to buy without being stuck with a huge hole in the wallet buying the one they might not have bought had they just known what was around the corner.. But I do kinda like the idea that for people who don't like the fast packs they at least have the option to not buy it. (save money?) For the majority of fans.. it just seems "more complete" when you have everything and every combination of things to go with it. I hope they make it clear that for future releases they let us know if you can get everything in a set before release of the standalone. Eg: "VF-11 will come in both FP and non-FP editions". Thank you. *goes to save money for the FP edition and knows not to buy the standalone edition* This is kinda funny: I remember how people were saying how much of a rip off the Toynami 1/100 toys were because of the lack of included fast packs with the toys. I'm surprise not many Toynami fans have made any smart ass comments about the price of the FP set for yf-19. As far as i'm concerned quality or not, both fans get ass-reamed on the prices.

drifand Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 (edited) What, we're complaining already? At least wait for the user reports! P.S. word filters are too cute... Edited February 12, 2007 by drifand Quote
Skullsixx Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 I'm not complaining. I think it looks pretty damn cool! Quote
megatroptimus Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 I don't like those accessories. YF-19 is great as is. Quote
Mog Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Love the Fast Pack armor, but I could care less about the green foldildo. Yang's alright, but I doubt I'd include him all that much when I'm posing the 19 in fighter mode. So if the whole FP set is gonna be $50 (before shipping), I'm probably gonna pass. Too bad they aren't offerring a release with just the four armor parts (and at a significantly lower price). Quote
do not disturb Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 haha nobody gives 2 shights about the booster, someone should just recast the leg and arm armors and sell them for cheap. seriously, the fold booster is totally teh ghey! Quote
penachoy Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Looking at the 1st picture posted there's a section of the YF-19s head..what is that about? Are we getting new set of darker green shades?.....if so...OH MAN IM DEFINITELY GETTING IT.....NOT! LOL. Quote
jenius Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Yeah, I asked about the head shot but nobody answered Quote
Lonewolf Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Love the Fast Pack armor, but I could care less about the green foldildo. Yang's alright, but I doubt I'd include him all that much when I'm posing the 19 in fighter mode. ...snip... Too bad they aren't offerring a release with just the four armor parts (and at a significantly lower price). Agreed. Quote
recon Posted February 13, 2007 Posted February 13, 2007 (edited) Fully agree, i couldnt care less for the fold booster and yang figure as im only interested in the Fps. anyone interested to take the fold booster off mine? Edited February 13, 2007 by recon Quote
mister_e Posted February 13, 2007 Posted February 13, 2007 I cannot justify $60 for this. Actually, it's kind of insulting that the FP's weren't included with the YF-19 in the first place considering its intended MSRP Quote
hikaru Posted February 13, 2007 Posted February 13, 2007 Hmmmm... the legs in fighter mode are like the VF-1 with the FP... The legs are ( a little ) folded to get the armor parts.... then, the shoulders aren't locked with the legs...... It's seems this will fix the shoulder that is not locking into place in fighter mode But I guess there will be a new problem the shoulder on my YF-19 is so loose that it will not be able to hold the fastpack Quote
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted February 13, 2007 Posted February 13, 2007 Damn. Expensive and it doesn't look that cool since you have to fold the leg and all... I was waiting for a giftset to be released, but now I don't feel too happy about it. Oh, well. I'm not waiting for second stand alone Isamu YF-19 release with fixes to come out, so I guess I'll pick one up. I feel kinda ripped already. Quote
Jin_Kune_Do Posted February 13, 2007 Posted February 13, 2007 Dudes....stop complaining, just be happy we are getting new macross toys. Think back to the old days when the only toys where those from the early 80s. - Jin Quote
Scream Man Posted February 13, 2007 Posted February 13, 2007 im very happy there are new toys. i just dont like paying more than they're worth. Quote
