Building Studio Halfeyes YF-19 and 21, and VF-11 need help identifying the wave B joints needed

[IronRaptor]

It says in the instructions that several sets of Wave's B joints are needed to complete the kits and that they were sold separately. Which B joint sets are we talking about? There are several options.

Possibly all, is there any type of description anywhere?

Sadly no. the instructions, after I translated them using google-translate, just say use Waves B joint. I think I may have found a reasonable replacement for it from a company called hobby base. They look very similar in size and style to what is depicted in the instructions of the models.

Hopefully they work out. The transformation on these may be specific to those joints from wave though. Maybe someone that’s built these could give some info

I took a look at instructions for the kits here:

After taking a look, I think most of the joints from Wave that the instructions call for are the ball joint ones. I also found these videos here of the YF-19 Studio Halfeye being built:

I also saw this video:

 

It mentioned @ 2:30 "1.7 B joints"; I don't know if that gives you any further info, but apparently it would use 1.7 (mm I assume) ball joints.

I hope these help you out, IronRaptor; meantime, I'll keep digging around to see what else I can find!
