Novareign Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Is the vf-19p worth getting. I have been debating on this for a week or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaoticYeti Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I was on the fence for awhile and recently picked one up. If you are a fan of the 19, and on the fence, pick it up. No QC issues on mine, and the ankles were out of the box tighter than on my 19s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaoticYeti Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I patiently waited on jungle and mandarake for awhile, but the prices that showed up there were higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Driver Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I want 19P wings for the 19F I just bought, I dislike the F/S wings. they're just too big... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 The whole wing root are different between F/S to P. I'll have to agree I much prefer the P wings over the others.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWN013 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 The 19P was a holy grail of mine for a long time until i found one in AKB a few months ago, and I love the thing to death. In my opinion the P (without the sound fins) is the ultimate 19 variant. Just leave Waldo in the box and put someone else in there, i have Docker in mine, but Yeti's Isamu looks even better.

Mommar Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Get the P, and get it with tracking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 (edited) These are definitely worth the purchase, and get even better when you consider repaint options. I'm a terrible sucker for the VF-19 line, so I think I have three of these... One is definitely getting a custom set of wings/wingroots and a new paintjob though, I've been dying for a white with black stripes VF-19F since the Master File renders appeared. Going to take a little CAD work, and a disassembled 19F, but it'll be totally worth the effort. Edited March 11, 2015 by Chronocidal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xrentonx Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 P is worth getting! I didn't think I'd like it that much at first but it's great. Better colors than Kai too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Novareign Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 Thx guys, the imput you gave was priceless and I appreciate it. I got the vf-19p with the shipping and can't wait to get it, now I need a few more cabinets lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I think it's my favorite 19. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chyll2 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 it is the toy I am waiting for HK to include in their sale, so far, it is only the 19S. Fair question, why most of the 19P I saw does not have the shoulder accessories attached? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scream Man Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 It's my favorite VF-19 design for sure. i'd have bought non-canon repaints of it if they had done some. i sorta regret trading my recolored one away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plaslid Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 IMHO 19P has got the most handsome headsculpt among other VF-19 variants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really want one now, but since I got the 19 advance, I need to wait and wait and tell myself to wait and wait and wait. I really like white since they are easy to paint up.

jvmacross Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Vf-19P's are one of my favs......the toy is nice too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Driver Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I'll be content with my Foxtrot, though the Papa looks great. I hadn't noticed the difference in the wing roots. I also hadn't noticed that the wings on the Foxtrot are more anime accurate than they are on my VF-HImetal Sierra. I'm looking foreward to having the foxtrot, it should be in tomorrow.

eriku Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 The VF-19P is, without a second thought, my favorite Yamato toy. Between the colors and the head sculpt it's just a beautiful, beautiful toy. And then there is the fact that it's a Yamato VF-19 which means it's one of the most rugged and playable Macross toys ever made. One of my favorite parts of the P is the sculpted face inside the visor. You really can't see it without shining a bright light on it which is part of the reason it's so cool. I love those little "we totally didn't have to do that but we totally did." details. Anyway, be sure to let us know what you think when you get yours, Novareign!

no3Ljm Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Those are nice. Not sure if this is true just by observing. From the looks of it, I think Arcadia is using a different kind of plastic than Yamato's. Can anyone confirm that? Or Arcadia is just more matte finish than Yamato? Thanks in advance.
