same +2...  basically why I passed on this one and stuck with my Arcadia. 

You are crazy. You would pass on the DX for that reason? Dude, sell your Arcadia and just buy the DX. The Arcadia was just too flimsy for me.

wow, not even a pound. Thank you so much though! How about the DX VF-31J? 

Still much better quality than the Arcadia. Writing on wings or not :pardon:

I'm not sure what's wrong with your Arcadia YF-19, but I love mine as is. I find that the DX one is more flimsy due to that gap in the legs in Fighter mode. Not to mention the over-engineered chest transformation. :rolleyes:

And having both I think is much better to go. Having both is like having the best of both worlds. Flimsy or not. :db:

I'm very happy with the DX but I only started collecting just about when the Delta figures were being released so I missed out on a lot of the Yamato/Arcadia releases.

The VF-31J is 421 grams.

The DX YF-19 has great heft also the Arcadia one, man YF 19 what a beautiful design it has, I have One Yamato YF-19, YF-19 Double Nuts, Arcadia YF -19, VF 19 Advance, and the DX YF-19, best design in my opinion. :D

421? Impressive! It weighs as much as the MP-10 Optimus. 

 

Actually you began collecting at the right time. There are a few Arcadias I can't live without. I've sold most of mine two years ago. The Delta valks are masterfully designed Valks (at least IMO). The YF-19 will remain as my favorite design. It just looks amazing in all modes!

Mine didn't feel like it was on par with the DX YF-19. Yes, the Arcadia version was beautiful but felt frail in comparison. Anime accuracy is a must of course!

Did Arcadia address the loose ankles for the YF-19? My Yamato Fire Valk ankles are loosey goosey but still stands in Battroid mode.

No. Arcadia's YF-19 ankles were arguably the worst ever since they were mostly loose out of the box. Mine faceplanted itself once (or rather uniboob planted) in battroid mode and slightly dented the nosecone. I have never trusted leaving it on battroid mode ever since.

Good Grief!!

If the DX YF-21 does get made, you bet that the "New Edwards" tampos will be plastered on the right wing like an eyesore. :bad: 

Edit: It's going to be on both wings actually like the YF-19.

C'mon now. I'm pretty sure you'll going to stay up late just to score a preorder of a DX YF-21. 8)

:lol:

Yep, that's definitely the weakness of the Yamatos... not enough tampos. I hate their decals, too, so my poor valkyries have to live with not enough markings.

It looks like overkill at first sight, however you do get used to it after giving it some time.

OR

If you don't like it, you can copy @tekering's idea and strip off the tampos.
