Looks like I will be ordering a couple of these LOL, if it can hold that star destroyer then I wonder what the limit will be LOL.....

Just wondering when the next batch of these stands will be available again?? I know I only just missed the last offering, so happy to wait for the next batch.....

Woo Hoo, just put my pre-order in with HLJ as well, now this I am actually looking forward too for next year!!

I agree the pricing can be a bit steep, but where else will you get these valks from?

We just need the pre-orders to be up LOL..... I missed the Yamato version, but will definitely get this one.

LOL, I am kinda figuring they will charge a bit more than the 1S releases from earlier this year..... I figure that's fair since they are using the SAME old moulds after all....... time will tell......

Since I missed Yamato's version this will be an easy sell to me LOL....

Sorry I know its the wrong thread....but...........Do I spy the VF-1J chunky monkey there???????????

Well it seems its back in stock at HLJ along with Hikaru and Roys VF-1S's........ weird......

Hmm... Interesting, its back in stock at HLJ.........

Hey YF-29 Durandal its the "derp" song!

Well its Sunday here, and raining, so got bored and made this silly little vid using my new lightbox to hopefully show off the YF-19 a bit better... enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YW87VfFpRvA

Hikaru 1J OR Hikaru 1J w/super parts OR Hikaru 1J with GBP Armour OR Strike parts for the current 1S Roy and Hikaru valks....

Heres a link to a quick vid of my Arcadia YF-19 with Yamato Fold booster on its back with brand new batteries, folding away without a care..... yes the lights are trippy LOL. Enjoy! http://youtu.be/DZh7KMdGEeM Sorry, dont know how to embed the vid in the post so just the link for now....

Well this is my first post in over..... well....... a very, VERY long time.... I just received my YF19 from HLJ, the special "B" grade box version, the end of the flap is bent over in the corner on one side and that's it, so well worth the savings. Compared to my Yamato YF19 this thing is rock solid in fighter mode, the Yamato feels very light and very.... floppy? Not sure if that's the correct word I am looking for, anyways, I think you guys know what I mean. As for the gullet...... well...... the Yamato gullet, now that I look at it in comparison to the Arcadia 19 is like night and day, most definitely an improvement. I notice a lot of subtle little changes as well which I like, the paint also seems a bit sharper and better defined ie, better masked for clear lines. Now just so you guys know, I initially had 2 of these pre-ordered with HLJ when it was first announced, so I was happy back then to pay the hefty price, then the black Friday sale hit so I cancelled those original 2 and pre-ordered 2 form that HLJ Sale..... now in the meantime certain "circumstances" changed and had to cancel my HLJ black Friday pre-orders and having done that, and from all the talk of limited production run, I wrote off any chance of buying this bird at a low price from there on in. However......... after giving up hope, I was cruising the HLJ pages for whatever reason.... and saw the price drop on the "B" stock and decided to jump in, damned to hell my "circumstances" and all..... and I will say I am glad I did, but I could only afford 1 bird, which is fine by me.. My logic is this in regards to my Macross purchases, put yourself through the hurt, get one, if you don't like it you can sell it.... if you love it... hang onto it for dear life because after Yamato going bust last year, Harmony Golds continuing sue-me-sue-you rhetoric and Bandai's ho-hum interest you need to ask yourself this..... where else will you get these items from?????????? These last 10-15 years have been an absolute blessing to all of us and best to take advantage of it while it lasts! That's my take on it anyway. Now back to swooshing the 19 around the room...... LOL.

Hi guys, just out of curiosity, I was wondering what kind of glue you used for the various bits and pieces of the kit version? Thanks in advance!

Glad to see these got re issued!! I missed out on Millia the first time round, but my pre order is in at least!!

Thank you again for another great review Graham! My YF19 is on its way!!

The YF19 is looking very good indeed!

Hi Mods, Just a quick question regarding picture sizes etc you can use in your posts. Im pretty sure that I once saw section that detailed the exact picture sizes to be used when uploading them to show up in posts (ie to show off your collection etc) but i cant seem to find those guidlines anywhere. If one of you guys has some basic pixel sizes or image size requirements that I can use as a guide (so I dont take up too much bandwidth server space etc) that will be appreciated. I just kinda need to know how much to shrink down my 2 meg file so it can be psoted here without any probs. Cheers!

I would recommend the Iwata HP-CS Eclipse.. super easy to clean and amazingly fine paint flow!!

I know how you feel, I was broken into last October here in Melbourne.. I was taking a shower at the time as well... back door was open and my Mum was over and asleep in the chair in front of the tv.... they went straight for my room taking all the small loose stuff (wallet, phone, couple of PC games, loose change 3 Tennis raquets). The things that gets me is that all my lights/tv were on in the house and they still had the nerve to come in, but they ran when they heard me finish up...luckily they didnt see my Mum otherwise it may have been a very different situation.. Luckliy for me they didnt take my low vis of 1/48 1J that were sitting right next to my wallet and phone... weird... just wish I could find out who they are and make punish them quiet harshly!!

I only got one set of armour...
