Valk009 Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 Hi guys, My Winter Wonder Festival 2005 UN Balance YF-19 Fast Packs finally arrived in the mail today, thanks to my source who went there and picked it up for me So, it seems like afterall that they were for sale and not like previously claimed by some members that UN Balance could not get a license in time for it Anyways, the upgrade parts are very well made and I will try and get some comparisson going with the Fast Packs by Club-M for their YF-19 very shortly Enjoy
ChristopherB Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 Andy, Wow! Thanks for posting the pictures. Sincerely, Christopher
Bariaburu Faita Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 Wow, neither Me, Noel, or Seichi could get any of those. Your source has some impressive red tape cutting skills.
Myersjessee Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 Very cool....thanks for sharing! Can I use the pics for the models section?
007-vf1 Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 I can only say and suggest one thing about this...in a subtle way: REC*ST !!!!!
ChristopherB Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 (edited) They are still making kits actively (fold booster/armor kit), so the last thing we want to do is discourage them by cutting into their sales. In hindsight, now that I know Liquid Stone actually released a new Macross kit at the recent WF, it makes me ponder a previous recast I arranged. Who's to say that they will release another, but the possibility remains... Here is the UN-Balance Website: UN-Balance Edited March 14, 2005 by ChristopherB
Grayson72 Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 Your acquisition of these fast packs only adds to the already impressive nature of Macrossworld. Noel How did you miss these Noel?
Myersjessee Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 Your acquisition of these fast packs only adds to the already impressive nature of Macrossworld. Noel How did you miss these Noel? Or rather....... I missed them so as to acquire something else .... more precious to you & ChrisB Noel All this cloak and dagger...come on now...spill the beans Chris and Chad...what did you get???
Less than Super Ostrich Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 is this for the Hasegawa YF-19? Looks larger than the one that comes with the Club-M version. your opinions?
Myersjessee Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 Yeah...its larger in the nose...it looks broader there...I like the Club M one better anyways..its got the clear detail pieces ...but as for accuracy...I can't tell...I think the ClubM looks right..but I'm biased...
Valkyrie Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 The Club-M fold booster is a great sculpt and all... but the clear parts suck. They're really foggy, and they fit like crap. I was going to recast it at one point, and adapt it for various models and toys. But I never finished repairing and/or re-sculpting the clear parts.
Grayson72 Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 Totally agree Valkyrie, my booster would never come out looking like the one above.
Myersjessee Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 Totally agree Valkyrie, my booster would never come out looking like the one above. Mine will come out better!
Valk009 Posted March 15, 2005 Author Posted March 15, 2005 Yeah, I have those UN Balance Fold Booster's too and must admit that the ones from the Club-M kit are better even though those clear parts are useless and make the whole thing look tacky! As with the Fast Packs, well I will give them a compare with the ones from Club-M. At first the UN Balance version looks a little bland with not much detail but then again I do not believe the Fast Packs ever had much detail to start with. Andy

Graham Posted March 15, 2005 Posted March 15, 2005 Andy, There's some parts in the package that I'm not sure what they are. Can you elaborate? I can recognize the 2 leg FAST packs and the 2 shoulder FAST packs, but what are the other bits? Graham
