physioguy Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 My only complaint before I saw the latest pics was the glossy finish, which... from the new pics, seems to be more of a semi-gloss, satin-like finsh, which is way better IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beware of Blast Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 This pic here looks great, i'm happy enough with Battroid mode. I had been waiting for a side on pic... http://ga.sbcr.jp/mgangu/010020/27.html Can't see much with that only pic of the battroid side. I hope his nose cone & head hood can lock securely. Because on my 1/72 YF21, I swear everytime I try to pick him up, it can't decide if it wants to stay a battroid or change into a jet & flyaway! And when I put him down to relax, he simply collapses and pass out everytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Saw the 21 on display in Akiba yesterday. Sorry, no pics. It looked to me to have a matte finish. It was only in fighter mode. The stand looks nice in clear plastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante74 Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 REALLY!?! Can you snap a pic of here next to a 1/48 VF-1 for me in Battroid and Fighter modes and post them in the Macross Pose thread? I would love that! Here's a comparison pic for ya. the SV-51 is even bigger than the YF-21. Back to the YF-21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mog Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 (edited) Such a beautiful bird!! Please tell me that head turns. It'd be awesome if the whole head and cowl can turn. But I'd be cool with just the head moving just a bit. Two YF-21's for this kupo-spouting moogle! .......All 1/60 scales, right Dante74?

Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Everyone wants Macross 7 paint jobs, I think a low viz grey 2 tone scheme would be perfect for the YF-21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruskiiVFaussie Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 (edited) this is the best looking plane ever, no questions on that. The robot mode though, i want more pictures, with the feets being straigth (not bent knees) and facing straight, with the fps on, as well as the air intake part on chest being open. Hope people who are getting this shortly will take those pictures for us. If this turns out to be great, then i can certainly understand why some people are buying two, cause the is just no way one would keep it in robot mode when the plane mode is the best looking plane ever, and thus to have it in robot mode, a second one is needed . lol.. actually i'm getting it for Fighter Mode with FP's and straight wings and the all cool el-diablo De-Limiter mode!!! Of course i will change the De-Limiter mode into battroid every now and then, this thing is too damn good to only have one in your cabinet. AND COZ IT'S MY FAVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV!!!!!!!!!!!!! KICK ASS YAMATO! Edited May 26, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaveRick Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 i am torn between buying either a SV-51 Nora to compliment with my VF-0A shin with ghost and this one with my YF-19.. seeing the latest pictures, makes it more difficult to decide!!! arggh!

1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 (edited) Can't wait for the reviews. Sure looks great in fighter mode. About the only complaint is the feet, but since it destroys the 1/72 and that is its only competition out there, that can be forgiven. Repaints: Gamlin. The VF-22 from one of the ovas that he appeared in. Thanks. It would fit in nicely with the 25th aniversary stuff I would imagine. I don't have any money to buy this right now though. I blame all the hasbro transformer stuff I bought. (I should have not bought leader class brawl movie. It ate a chunk of the yf-21 money But good thing yamato delays releases. Not for those who want it early of course. Just saying it's a busy period right now for transforming robots) Edit: oh yeah almost forgot I just bought a mz23 garland too... Whatever the repaint is, I hope there is a looooooooong time (wallet healing period) before it comes out after the canon yf-21 colour release.

ruskiiVFaussie Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 I was always going to get the early bird YF-21 release, just that i downgraded from 5 to 2. Yes blame that on other purchases. (Mospeada most of all u greedy b^tch!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Arms Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 That's my big concern as well. Will the feet be ablt to support it weight, and will the backpack lock into place in battroid mode? But otherwise the 21 looks gorgeous and I can't wait to get it. Bring on the repaints!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thankheaven Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 WOW! Still wish they had gone with the glossy finish but thats just nitpicking, this looks great! Maybe they could release a glossy YF-21 and 19 later I wonder how secure the limbs are and how the system to detach them works for limbless mode.

I will be picking one of those up...after I get a YF-21...which I guess I'll have to drool over everyone elses until I can afford one.

Mog Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Paint scheme? VF-22? I want that kit. Just a paint scheme. The only major modding I've done on the mecha side of things is straightening out a gunpod's placement and fixing up some landing gears. <Glares at the YF-19> Most of my customizing and modding seems to be in the 3 3/4" scale.
