Just wondering, how did they do the little rivets on to the valk? http://www.macrossworld.com/macross/magazi...hj-may-06-1.jpg Did they drill little holes all over it?

Hurin: lol. Happens to the best of us.

DAMN YOU YAMATO! >_<

May your will be done oh great Azrael.

If there was , i'd think we'd already hear it.

Tch.... as long as it doesn't look like the War Within Titanium Jetfire.

BAH! Go away Oihan!! >_< I resist your evil!

yay finally Eureka grows her hair! Kawaii! The 4th OP seems to have a remixed version of "Amazing Grace" in the background. Awesome. Football episode was filler to the max. It didn't feel like it had to be there considering the last episode was already filler. But episode 40 awesomeness...though i wonder why renton and eureka had to be pulling the Nirvash when they could well be in it like the rest of them.

I think he's trying to avoid just that. XD

The Gunbuster is a beauty. It may surpass Voltes V as toy of the year.

From those new pics, i'm quite curious how the nosecones go all the way to the side of the intakes though.

One thing that bothers me, which is not apparent in some other's review pics, but why the closed mouth head has red panelled lines making it seem as if it isn't closed?

Unfortunately the price wasn't cheap even when its 1st released. It sold for about the same price as a 1/60 then. >_< The LV wasn't really sought after either. I remembered it being in the shops for quite some months before i lost sight of it. Only reason i didn't get it was cause i was still studying then and had no cash. it only shot up after quite some time in the primary market.

Nah....its gonna be a mass release. If they'll release a limited version, they'll call it Low Viz YF-19 or something and ppl will snap it up. I'd say that LIMITED Editions are more like "sure sells" and would be a good thing for traders and Yamato, even if they don't make the sale from the 2ndary market.

Looking at the review pics, it seems the evas have the most revoltech joints in them.

LOLOLOL!!! FUNNIEST THING EVAR!! Wth...this doesn't do anything good for his credibility.

Gah?! In the flesh? What does that mean?! You're evil!

Ok....this is all assumptions based on the VF-1 and VF-0 sculpts. Improvements on the YF-19 1.) Legs will be connected to the torso with ball joints with more or less ample move space to allow dynamic posing in battroid. 2.) Knee joints will be improved and can swivel to allow better poses in both battroid and Gerwalk. 3.) this may be a long shot, but from the CAD i can see that the torso could very well be made to swivel. The air intakes may get in the way though. 4.) Head should be put on a ball joint. I never understood why the VF-1 and VF-0 's heads weren't put on ball joints as it improves the head's poseability but doesn't compromise in transformation. And as for "features": 1.) The "wings swept back" could be done if there was a cavity within the YF-19's legs that allows some clearance for the wings to fold back. This may compromise the toy's look though. But another way is to make the wings double jointed so you would have to pull out the wings 1s (still connected by the joints to allow perfect transformation), fold it, then snap it back into place. 2.) I agree totally on the shoulders looking too flat. In fact it doesn't look like it has improved over the Bandai VF-19Kai ( i don't have the 1/72 yammie so can't make the comparison) and the shoulders are more or less static. What could greatly improve the look is to put the shoulder itself on a ball joint or a 2dimensional joint, so the shoulders are more like shoulder pads instead of a whole piece by itself. This way, the shoulders can be angled upwards in battroid mode but can also be angled downwards in fighter mode for a sleek fighter. Another way is to make the shoulder joints able to rotate up by 10 to 20 degrees. This would add an extra ratchet joint to the top of the torso though and possibly would look a tad ugly if viewed from the top. OR they could make the top of the torso itself slightly angled so when whe shoulders move into place, it would naturally be angled upwards. And if they could make the shoulder swivel a little to the front as opposed to stopping right at the sides, to allow the hands to reach in front of its chest, that would be added cool to poseability. Here's my lousy photoshop of how the angled CAD would look like.

Ok graham. Sorry bout that. I thought the dust would've settled by now.

Ahh...thanks for that.

How come nobody makes as much noise when Katoki redesigns gundams and ver. Kas them?

You had to send in the coupons that came with the magazine to mail order the weapons. In other words they are exclusives and only can be gotten in Japan.

Just seen it. ZOMG...i want those songs! The episode was at the bordering of filler, but it develops Haruhi's character more. Wheee! Love it. BOMBAH!!!

Bigger always is better. Say graham the VF-2JA never made it to the anime did it?

A'ite MW'ers get yer hands up and repeat after me. VF-4. VF-4. VF-4. VF-4. 410505[/snapback] After sacrificing a goat to the cthulu plush toy, and my wish for a YF-19 remould was answered. Now i shall sacrifice my porn mags to the great cthulu for the VF-4. VF-4, VF-4, VF-4.
