NWS anime crotch! Good thing this is on my phone

[anime52k8]

hehehe, I've got that porno figure in my November AmiAmi order.

[Valkyrie addict]

I always wonder if the hardcore "sexy figurine" community feel weird when they see a robot in between their figures. Like, "mmmm...boobs,boobs, crotch, panties.........WTF, robot?"

[AlphaOne]

Hahaha! Valkyrie Addict, that made me laugh

[anime52k8]

I like to mix up the porno figures and the giant robots.

And it only has one boob!!!!

[Guest davidwhangchoi]

arcadia tweeted that off angle pic to tease their other products... i guess it's working...

[NeoverseOmega]

Boobs and random robots? That sounds like my hard drive.

[Guest davidwhangchoi]

i changed the pic to a link so it's safe for work

[Guest davidwhangchoi]

they're begging Mr. K for a picture of the 19 from the factory. i'm going to bed soon... hopefully he complies and i wake up seeing something... here's hoping...

[Guest davidwhangchoi]

Nothing update: nice! Mr. K did post something. i must've checked too early.

Hit the Panic Button! The wings won't stay in place because of the High-Speed Mode feature.

Bow and arrow mode! Awesomesauce!

You guys really paying $300 for this?!

[Scyla]

Don't you like the tan and black color with the pink highlights?

[Guest davidwhangchoi]

don't like it? don't post and move along.

[Falcon18]

It's the perfect low vis scheme Double blade ftw.

Also I don't see anything different from the previous prototype. Maybe it'll be clearer with newer pictures.

[charger69]

With her "Wing Blade" Mode this YF-19 is really super roboty

[mechaninac]

What part of "test shot", what it entails and what it is meant to accomplish, don't you understand? As for it being worth the asking price...

[close313]

Don't you guys feel that the connection of the bar to the base of the wing looks fragile? Especially since the joint is at the corner and the outer part of the plastic surrounding the pin seems quite thin.

i won't paraphrase bc it leads to possible errors (hopeful another MW will come in and lend a hand)

Mr.K addresses:

• fold booster
• yf-21
• vf-14
• 19 canopy

I don't like it. Oooops.

[Guest davidwhangchoi]

yes we know, you're acting like a troll(child), but if you have nothing to add to the 19 discussion move along.

Regarding the test shot. Does the pink color indicate that this part is made out of metal? Or is it just that color for no specific reason?

I have a hard time to imagine that there is not metal in the elbow joints for example.

That was one of my main reasons for not wanting to include High-Speed mode, it creates a new point that can break (and it's an ugly mode that I won't use, ever, anyway.)

[skullmilitia]

That wing swing is definitely metal.

One hopes the plastic isn't going to crack around that

Swivel point over time.

I don't think translating is even necessary, he's already said info on all the above!

[Scyla]

If there is some way that prevents the wing from sliding out completely out of the glove (like shown in the picture) it should be fine. Hopefully they can achieve that. I'm thinking of a channel where the wing can move along in the wing root.

Another thing the test shot shows the wing swing exposed in Battroid-Mode (on the other wing). hopefully this is only a tolerance issue. I don't like how the wing touches the ground. That looks suspicious!

It wouldn't be the first Macross toy test shot that featured pink for no particular reason.

*cough* (my avatar)

[Falcon18]

Previous shots of the 19 in battroid didn't have the wings touching the ground. So it shouldn't be an issue.

[Scyla]

I know that avatar very well because you never change it. When I fist saw that image I thought it was the Sheryl Nome Special Edition of the Koenig Monster.

But I remember an image of the VF-19 from Yamato that had also the some pink parts where the rest was black. Don't know exactly what parts are black specifically that's why I ask. I find it weird that only the shoulders are pink.

i agree with most of it is usually a summary of past tweets but

there's possible new comments regarding the fold booster/ pin point barrier effect, hopefully someone can lend a hand, it's worth confirming as many have questions about the fold booster.

Probably not but if this isn't the time to look for reasons not to spend 300 bucks on that beauty by hitting the panic button like crazy then I don't know what to think about this community.
