From what's been discussed in the forums before, its licensing agreements between BW and bandai/arcadia/toy manufacturers that drives scale/releases. Quote

enphily Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 It's not full set pack, but for almost same price Quote

MKT Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 Well, I guess the accessories will likely be a separate web exclusive. I was already quite surprised they chose to include them in the initial YF-19 release anyway. Full pic set: Quote

Watch the tolerances be trash like the other previous MWW releases (DX Revival 25 and the newly re-release Haya Haya 31ax). Unless there are changes to the earlier YF-19 mold, I will not expect the tolerances to change. Quote
twich Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 I don’t know, I think it is a pretty sweet valk! I have the VF-19Advance from Bandai and love it, would love the YF-19, especially if it means they will release a YF-21! Twich Quote
borgified Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 (edited) Anyone want to remove the annoying tampographs this time round if your getting a second copy of this MWW DX YF-19? Edited June 29, 2023 by borgified Quote
Mobius Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 well I got mine second hand recently, and most likely I'll be getting a 2nd copy of this. This also makes me a bit hopeful of an actual yf21 dx release Quote
lechuck Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 Well at least it gives fans an option to avoid Arcadia YF-19 broken arms lottery. Quote
Chronocidal Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 Heh.. and here I was hoping they'd make the heels not fugly. Probably asking too much, they really really do not seem to understand how the feet need to be shaped to work in all modes. Looking forward to the accessory pack though, I'll be happy to buy a few extras to outfit all the completely bare Bandai valks I have laying around. Quote

The only accessories coming in this release are the effect parts/pilots/hands/supers. No indication of the full set accessories. Quote
MKT Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 No idea yet if it comes with 1 or 2 of the pin-point barrier punch effect. One picture shows it using 2, others show 1, and the description is not very helpful. Quote

They're not even including the fast packs this time, which is actually kind of insulting, considering how minor they are. It was stupid when Yamato didn't include them, and it feels even stupider for Bandai to backtrack on doing it right the first time. Maybe I'll try and pick up a 4th copy to repaint this time around... Edited June 29, 2023 by Chronocidal Quote
eXis10z Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 I’m not complaining they exclude the full set stuff. Keeps the value of my old one. But given their practice they’ll probably release it as a separate box set. Quote
MKT Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 Fast Packs and fold booster to be one TWE pack, missiles and arm cannons to be another. Quote

sh9000 Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 I already have a spare of the Full Pack Set but haven't opened it yet so I'll be skipping this release. Nice to see they've now come to completing at least 1 of each Valk release shown in their WWM logo. Quote

This reissue is going to be a general release in Japan, so the US exchange-rate cannot quite really be accounted for the msrp-shenanigans of this rather nerfed reissue-release (no missiles, no fold booster, no FPs/armor, no arm-cannon). at any rate, Bandai PR at Hobby-Dengeki: https://hobby.dengeki.com/news/1987642/ Quote
Rhubarbarian Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 Guess an extender clip for fighter mode so the gunpod doesn't have to bend in the middle was too much to hope for. Neither's a great option, but the bending gunpod on my VF-19A always particularly irked me. Lack of extras is a real downer, too. Delaying the YF-21 for a WMM release does make a lot of sense in hindsight, though, if that's their plan. M+ was more popular over here than it was in Japan IIRC. Quote
Froy Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 At less the fold booster should be in since it is one of the main features in the anime. I don't really mind about the payload since the YF-19 was never animated using that kind of weapons. Quote
Rhubarbarian Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 Yeah, keeping the fold booster/armor packs would have definitely lessened the sting. I would mutter about them removing the missiles/cannon, but I'd still buy it. Much less tempted with everything removed. I feel like they wanted to remove everything to make the extra "full set pack" tempting enough to buy, but then knowing Bandai they will then proceed to never sell that pack. Quote
lechuck Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 I could see Bandai using this to test the international market acceptance of buying add-on packs. Quote

PointBlankSniper Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 If they don't announce an accessory pack with everything they took out, I'm not sure I can pull the trigger on this, despite having looked forward to this re-release. Gonna be rough to wait and see while hoping it does stay in stock like other wwm releases. The dream is this could lead to the same treatmenet with the advance, so the parts could be mix and matched, even if colors and markings are wrong. But I'm aware that hoping for a separate missile and arm cannon set and then an even more hypothetical 19 advance and its pack as more separate sets, is like asking Bandai for a lot of schodinger's monkey's paw. Quote
sh9000 Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 (edited) I'll see if I can open my spare this weekend. Edited June 30, 2023 by sh9000 Quote
Chronocidal Posted June 30, 2023 Posted June 30, 2023 You know, I keep waiting for someone to remember that there was a sliding cover over the back seat once Yang ejected. Would be a really easy part to make, too. I might have to look into that. Interesting thing though.. the helmet-less Isamu there looks far more detailed than the original, and his hands actually reach the controls. Or maybe they just shoved that one into the seat properly? Quote
mog_kupo Posted June 30, 2023 Posted June 30, 2023 P-Bandai accesory pack for january/february with the YF-21 on march/april Quote
Corrinald Posted June 30, 2023 Posted June 30, 2023 So this one is a World Wide Macross release? That's cool but it's underwhelming they removed most of the accessories. Quote
borgified Posted June 30, 2023 Posted June 30, 2023 Yeah… It’s a MWW release with half the add ons from the Full Set release in 2018, but with the sunny side up punch effects. Quote
