Chronocidal Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Looks like they're mounted to a clamp that wraps around the upper half of the wing glove.. That's just.. weird. Only way you can really mount them in that orientation though, or the legs would get in the way. Quote
treatment Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 I don't know, guys.Those look really fugly in both Gerwalk and Battroid modes. Quote
SaitouSad Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 as interesting as that looks, I can't really imagine the boosters will work much when in Battroid mode (tearing the wings off perhaps? hahaha) Quote
treatment Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) Maybe they should add a green cloak/mantle accessory as well if they're trying to pull some bizarro Attack on Titan look on the Alpha-1... Edited July 2, 2014 by treatment Quote
MikeRoz Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 Whoa... I was thinking that the AoT people would sure love it if a YF-19 popped in that they could use against the Titans when it hit me - AoT is basically Macross without Valkyries or music as a plot element, and with a severe tech downgrade. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 @TREX Why you promote products that I can't practically have it?! Like most Bandai DX valks? Quote
charger69 Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) Like most Bandai DX valks? Sounds right! But this is even more scarce! :ph34r: Edited July 2, 2014 by charger69 Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 Wow this looks amazing. Just crazy on how the wing boosters work I'm batroid mode. Hopefully when Arcadia releases the YF-19 3.0 with voice command transformation it will come out with these Quote
YF-29 Durandal Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 I bet these will go for some crazy price like ¥22.990 Quote
Isamu Dyson Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 No SMS sticker decals to cover the kites? All this talk about Arcadia/Bandai licence, makes me really wonder if Bandai would take the challenge and do their own SMS YF-19. The hi metals weren't too shabby. I would be down for 3 of them even if it doesn't match up to Arcadia's version. Quote
jenius Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 I bet these will go for some crazy price like ¥22.990 From what I understand, you are pretty close! Quote
Mommar Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 I bet these will go for some crazy price like ¥22.990 That's about the same price you'd pay for Alto's Super Packs now too... Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) Fighter mode looks the best. You can do the transformation, I was scared transforming my YF-19 for the first time. I just took my time and everything went well. thanks Saburo, i think it's more of a fear of loosening the ankles (but also the blk paint being scraped by the canopy) i want to preserve my ankles to be stiff as possible so i won't even extend the feet one inch lol. 300+ is too high of a price to risk loosening it. From what I understand, you are pretty close! what is this understanding i think it's going to cost 300 to get to me regardless of what the amount is. which is why i may have to pass. (i'd rather get the 0D or an extra 19 with 300) Edited July 2, 2014 by davidwhangchoi Quote

Understandable, its a pricey figure to risk the chance of damaging it. I just bit the bullet and transformed my YF-19 for the first time (a few days after I got it), and then a second time to take pics of it. It remains in fighter mode now, but if I want to see it in other modes I just look at the photos I took. On a side note, I am considering making a coffee table photobook for myself.

skullmilitia Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 T-Rex posted on twitter that despite the huge amount of emails asking for a "Mail order" option. These are limited to a one day license pass at WF. That they didn't expect them to ever be released down the road. If you're hardcore, this is what you should try to get. They are resin, so better start saving! Quote
YF-29 Durandal Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 That's about the same price you'd pay for Alto's Super Packs now too... Thats crazy! And the YF-29 looks best without Super Parts unless you are a space whale hunter. Or did you mean the VF-25F? Quote

jenius Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 I'm hoping to get a set for review on anymoon but obviously it'sa long shot. Quote
Mommar Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 I'm hoping to get a set for review on anymoon but obviously it'sa long shot. If you can find a hook up could I piggy back on that? Quote
jvmacross Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 I'm hoping to get a set for review on anymoon but obviously it'sa long shot. If you no longer need it after your review...I'd be interested in buying it... Quote
jenius Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 If you can find a hook up could I piggy back on that? Sorry, I'll be very lucky if I can get a set of my own. Fingers crossed. Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 For those that really want a set, it's practically guaranteed that at least (1) will show up on Yahoo! Japan, just be prepared to take out a second mortgage or sell an organ that you may not have wanted to. @Benson, I'd like to know too but a few posts above I see 22,000 JPY being floated as a possibility. -b.

aaajin Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 $230 for those 4 pieces? sheesh... might need to spend a weekend to re-learn CAD from college and shapeway mine..to bad this time of the year is a busy time for me. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 22,000 Yen is a guestimate being said considering that's the usual going pricing for rare resin kits sold in WF. Given the size of the boosters, if you shapeway it, it wouldn't be so cheap either. Quote
The Old Man Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 Yeah, I'm happy to miss this too. The YF-19 is pretty enough as is, I don't even both with the silly Fast Pack bits that it comes with. Quote
no3Ljm Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 Not bad on the AoT YF-19 scheme. That green cloth looks great on him. Hahaha! I know I like to have a set, but if it's going to cost around $200-300, I rather save the money and buy a VF-25S or save more to buy a VF-4G. But that might take awhile to save. Hahaha! Quote

Mommar Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 Super Parts will be 13000yen That's not so bad, if only I could find somebody to stand in line for me. Quote
