Ah, I see how it transforms now... The crotch piece is hidden away inside the cockpit in Fighter mode. You can see the cockpit as the VF-25's 'rear'.

I apologise, but what does this actually mean?

Is there a difference between 'Perfect Transformation' and 'Transformation Perfectly'? The words 'transform' and 'perfect' are both there. (^.^

Actually, I personally doubt that the cockpit and nose cone will be able to fit in the body of the Battoid mode either... I do recall seeing a similar SD VF-25F that had to be completely disassembled, but I do believe that one was a resin-kit thing. Hopefully, aside from the head, there will be little or no part swapping.

Here's the full ad, wonder what it says. (^.^) Actually, on the subject of the SD figures, I would really love to see a whole line of SD figures including more Macross Valks (Plus Valks Please) and perhaps other mecha like the Evangelion units. (Super Robot Wars designs perhaps?)

Ah, the Ranka sticker only comes with the regular version...

But the thing is: Is it Anime accurate? Even if it looks like crap, I wouldn't care if it were accurate to the show.

Oh my gosh, does this feature perfect transformation? (^.^ Looks so awesome, reminds me of the old jokemachines that I never did get a chance to own...

I don't see why you wouldn't get the SP version as it is 100 yen cheaper than the regular version's MSRP over at AmiAmi with its discounts. Of course, that means that the regular version will be even cheaper still...

AmiAmi has an SP Version (Sheryl Tempo Print) of the Monster up for pre-order.

Me three! I'm also most looking forward to the YF-21, one of my all time favorite Valks, now in a convenient, playable form! (^.^)

Evidently, a joint part to attach the gunpod is included as well.

Absolutely brilliant. Aside from the Macross stuff, I personally am exceedingly excited over the Code Geass and FMP! mecha in the game. Both these series have yet to receive a decent game of their own. Hopefully the Guren SEITEN will be a playable Mecha. (^.^)

From GA Graphic via Ngee Khiong - Double joint for the elbow for wider articulation of the arm. - Pull-out mechanism implemented for the pelvis joint, allowing the legs to spread wider for more stable standing. - Improved design for the ankle, allowing it to be able to touch the surface better. - Both the pelvis and ankle joint design make difficult poses like kneeling possible. - Knee joint can be turned horizontally to create beautiful poses for the legs in Gerwalk mode. - Hands can be retracted during transformation. - Landing gears are attached to the Fighter Mode via part-swapping.

Wait, I just noticed two holes, on the legs, just at the bottom of the sculpted landing gear doors on the VF-19 that might look like something could possibly peg into them. If Bandai were smart enough, they could possibly use that to attach the landing gear to. It actually does look like it from the pictures. (Hope you don't mind me using your picture) The front landing gear wouldn't be a problem as it could possibly clip into the cod piece hinge.

The only thing I worry about when it comes to the landing gear is that the plane will just rest on them (with the landing gear fixed to the stand), as they doesn't seem to be a way for them to attach to to the plane.

Interesting that in all the above pictures, the back leg holes are left un-filled. (^.^)

I highly doubt that Bandai will, but is the sculpt of the VF-25F improved in anyway?

Oh yeah. Source from the ever reliable Ngee Khiong. (^.^)

Indeed, with the VF-19 Kai already exceeding my expectations of a 1/100 VF-19, the VF-19S looks to be a get for me as well. One can only hope that landing gear is included (doesn't look like it) and the gunpod is attachable. Really nice touch with the leg missiles. Now I can't wait for more production pictures of the H-M YF-21! (^o^)

Not sure if you guys would agree, but one of the features that I would like to see is a rewind and possibly frame skip mode when viewing the replays. Trying to get the perfect positions to take a snapshot is really hard because if you miss the moment, you'll have to restart the whole replay again.

Apologies for the question, but in the final panel in the instruction manual of the VF-27, transformation to Battroid, there seems to be a mechanism that allows the crotch piece to angle out. Is this an actual mechanism or just the positioning of the legs? Which parts are supposed to detach?

It seems that various 1/60 Yamato Valks are getting re-released with new packaging! Included are: 1/60 YF-21 1/60 YF-19 1/48 VF-1S Hikaru 1/48 VF-1S Roy Not only that, it seems that the YF-21 will be an updated mold, sans the stand and fast packs. Engrish description: '- Had achieved a complete transformation of the threat deformation gimmick YF-21 sorties re-design a single package! - VF series so far has been adopted by different deformation mechanism YF-21 features the largest storage of arms and legs. - Boiled down to the limit deformation gimmick balance and proportion, as much as possible the thickness of the aircraft fuselage less As we pursue the reality. - The optional [Makurosusutando] and for the attachment, Forudobusuta even mounting legs for connection, Of course it comes with, like it is aligned to correspond to each item in the display form. - Was included with the initial production version [stand] and [Fasutopakku] omit the lower prices that In addition, a new design according to the reproduction of this package! ' Has this been reported before?

New promo pics. Pre-orders also up. June release. 5,775 Yen. Cheaper than the VF-19
