seti88 Posted September 24, 2018 Author Share Posted September 24, 2018 tekering, you probably need to mr laquer the inevitable 21 too, in order to match your "naked" yf-19? The 21 cant be louder than the 19 right? after guld is the "quiet" type compared to isamu... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rather have UNSPACY than NETFC. 7 minutes ago, tekering said: Well, I suppose the Yamato YF-21 could use a little more tampo... it looks rather plain and toyetic next to the DX YF-19 (even with the most egregious markings removed). True and I agree sir. But to some who's more into 'anime-accurate' ones, that YF-21 looks fine to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like there is a happy middle ground between those two, but people will differ on which specific tampo should be there. Even Arcadia's premium finish seem to go too far sometimes. That's why I personally like stickers as an option, but I know they aren't very popular (and seem to be falling out of favor). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shizuka the Cat Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 YAY! I am so excited, DHL revised the estimated delivery of my YF-19 from Wednesday to today. Given that it was shipped out on Saturday, if it arrives in just 2 days, I think DHL will be my go to for any future orders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a butterfly so much as glances in their direction, they fall off. But at least they go back on, so it's just really annoying more than anything else. Glad that you’re finally getting the hang of it. Like what I said before, feels like most negative reviews are from people who’ve never handled a toy like this before. You have to be very delicate with it, be familiar with the tolerances, and know exactly how to transform it. Regarding the tail fins, I don’t have that issue. I was actually wondering about what people were complaining until you mentioned it was them falling off. Strange, I don’t think that was ever an issue even on the Advance.

Negotiator Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 My ami+dhl was originally scheduled to arrive Wednesday but instead received it this morning in so cal. Almost missed it but dogs woke me up and had to flag the truck down on his way out of my block. Meanwhile. Hlj hasn't shipped yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s fair . The adv does have a different look and the fastpack are a military green which I think makes it look better than the blue. The blue just blends in too well that it just looks plain. also that’s it for the vf-19 adv , they aren’t gonna make more , so I don’t think you will find it for less than msrp .

ArchieNov Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Yes I know it is silly, but I kinda do like the look of the fold booster attached in battroid mode. Even cooler is that the figure has no problems holding it despite the weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mounting the Gunpod along the Arm Cannon in Battroid mode but make the 'gunpod hinge holder' folded lke how it mounts vertically in Fighter mode. Thanks! 15 hours ago, no3Ljm said: I think you can.

kajnrig Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Well, the YF-19's fold booster is only rated for a single fold jump, so that's not a concern. HMMMMmmmm.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CF18 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 So watching all the reviews, my only disappointment is that the unit only come with 8 missile mounting pieces, so you get all those missiles but not enough pieces to mount them on the VF-31s and VF-171s.

Trifalger Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Well this has privately been my plan for some time in the case I couldn't cope with the heels but it seems like it's an easy job to swap either the heel or the entire foot of the VF-19 over to the YF-19.

I'll make a Shapeways model, if @Xigfrid doesn't beat me to it. Might take a few weeks though, I've got a prior commitment to replicate shield missile adapters for @Sildani.

The adv heal is too long and no one likes clown feet. Also, got shipping notice today! Yay! Got it sent via DHL so that should mean I'll have it before the weekend!
