Xigfrid Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Weird decision from bandai. But why not! Quote
Falcon18 Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Aw damnnn. Need to see fighter mode. Damn it Bandai. If this is awesome, you're gonna be making me regret getting Arcadia's 19.. Quote
Black Valkyrie Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Most impressive. This will be my first VF purchase in ages. Quote
charger69 Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 I bet we will see VF-19 MTR variations from Bandai!! Quote
Mommar Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Odd, the gray bits on the shoulders just split in two. It's a bit odd they're advertising it in Battroid given that it was NEVER SEEN in Battroid. I'm a bit skeptical of what Fighter mode will look like. Quote
Dimis Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) I bet we will see VF-19 MTR variations from Bandai!! NOOOOoooooo!!!! I don't have any more space! Is the SVF-569 possible? That would be a perfect Ozma companion! Edited October 30, 2014 by Dimis Quote
3D-Brainx Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 At this point I can only say F*#k you Bandai! Realy? now? after spending $400 on the Arcadia one? I'm pissed, because it looks awesome. Quote
close313 Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Odd, the gray bits on the shoulders just split in two. Good catch, seems like bandai never intended it to be anything else other than useless bits of FAST pack armor. Quote
Mommar Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) Good catch, seems like bandai never intended it to be anything else other than useless bits of FAST pack armor. Which makes no damn sense considering they practically look like the missile boxes on the 25. What's with the odd kibble on the back of the shield? The ankles already look far superior to the terrible Yamcadia version. Are the calf panels collapseable or something? What's with the weird split/cut at the top near the knee? It looks like the fast packs attach like my original idea, both at the wing root and the hard point closest to the fuselage. You probably can't fold the wings in in battroid because of that. This must be what Jenius was alluding to when he said Bandai wasn't happy Arcadia beat them to something. Edited October 30, 2014 by Mommar Quote
Kelsain Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) Wonder if the intakes are removable, and whether they'll include the should missile boxes. Poseability seems nice and looks like the crotch transformation is more accurate to M+. That means the gun pod will probably sit better in fighter. EDIT:Just realized what Mommar was referring to. Huh... Edited October 30, 2014 by Kelsain Quote
KH355hamdi Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Looks good. Now I have two Macross to order. Quote
Sevket_Erhat Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 I have never bought but always wanted a YH-19. Now might be the time Quote
IXTL Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Wonder if the intakes are removable, and whether they'll include the should missile boxes. There's a groove at the edge of the intake so it looks like the cover will be removable. Quote
Mommar Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Interesting that the lower support piece beneath the nose cone protrudes farther than the upper chest piece does. Quote

What's with the odd kibble on the back of the shield? The ankles already look far superior to the terrible Yamcadia version. Actually the portion of the shoulders that those parts are covering look like intakes that are linked to the legs. I am thinking they're like those fuel pods that covers the intakes of the rotating engines of the tornado packs. I'm waiting for a standing forward shot as this looks more leggy and slender than Arcadia's. I don't think it'll still have the stubby silhouette like what Arcadia tried to achieve but probably won't be as bad/long as Yamato's 1/60 YF-19. Quote
chyll2 Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 what mommar noticed cant be unseen. I also expected it to be similar to MF missile box. Price price price bandai, and PO madness again Quote

I don't think it'll still have the stubby silhouette like what Arcadia tried to achieve but probably won't be as bad/long as Yamato's 1/60 YF-19. Why would you have your fuel pods split into two pieces during a transformation? What do you mean by long? In Fighter? I'm wondering what the curves might be like in fighter mode. They don't have that bit of extra bump on the chest piece like Arcadia do, nor is there any flexion in the lower support piece, however that was in service to keeping the fuselage shaped a certain way in Fighter. The more rounded look is something Bandai did on their Hi-Metal series and it looked.... bad, IMO. Quote
close313 Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Oh I meant the legs. They're much more slender than Arcadia's Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Yep. Definitely a frontier-ized YF-19. Not as stocky as the m+ YF-19. I am ok with that. Especially if price is $140-$175 USD. Quote
sreichma Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 The sign to the left says there's going to be a "Super Dimension Chogokin Exhibition" on Nov 22-23. More info and perhaps more products may be unveiled there. i will buy every single vf-1 dx that is released. I believe skull militia predicted this. Quote
anubis20 Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 I just realized something, wasn't the front part of the super part set that goes on the shoulder supposed to be a missile pod? Quote
skullmilitia Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Hmm, looks like the rumor was true after all, now to see if the second rumor shows up at the same time. This is so bought. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 This going to be the first head to head comparison with the same valk in the same scale arcadia vs. bandai. i want to see who the winner is Quote
close313 Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 I just realized something, wasn't the front part of the super part set that goes on the shoulder supposed to be a missile pod? Mommar pointed that out earlier. Quote
3D-Brainx Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Yep. Definitely a frontier-ized YF-19. Not as stocky as the m+ YF-19. I am ok with that. Especially if price is $140-$175 USD. If it comes bundled with the super parts I expect it to be arround the price of the vf-27 "renewall" Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 So is the bandai yf-19 in the photos plastic surface shiny or matte. it looks matte Quote
Mommar Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Yep. Definitely a frontier-ized YF-19. Not as stocky as the m+ YF-19. I am ok with that. Especially if price is $140-$175 USD. $20 says it will be $200+ Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 $20 says it will be $200+ i'm with you. Quote
CF18 Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) Yeah just look at the 20000 yen YF-30. This one is all new mold so it's not gona be cheap. Hmm, looks like the rumor was true after all, now to see if the second rumor shows up at the same time. What's the second rumor? Edited October 30, 2014 by CF18 Quote
SuperSenpai Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 As far as pricing, there's really no need for them to make it as cheap as possible. All they really have to do is undercut Arcadia's YF-19 price by a good chunk for it to seem like a bargain in comparison -- especially considering that it looks like it will include Fast Packs, which some may argue is a more desirable add-on feature than the tons of missiles that came with the Arcadia YF-19. Count me in as pegging it for at least $200. Quote
