ArchieNov Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 I guess I'm the only one that thinks the P version has nothing over the S version in battroid mode. I like the colors, head unit and the look of the folded wings better on the S than any of the other versions in battroid. The P version's head actually looks worse to me now because I can see the Kai's eyes (and maybe mouth) underneath that green face mask. I used to think it was just some robotic looking detail underneath it which I would have preferred. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3D-Brainx Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 So I guess that's it. I comes with a Basara figure, missiles and a regular gunpod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benbot Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 I had considered cancelling my preorder for the VF-19P, but that's not happening now! It's nearly perfect. I think I might like this even more than my VF-25 renewals! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reïvaj Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Just to clarify -- the missiles are internal. The VF-19P should have 2 x internal high maneuverability micro-missile launchers and not 2 x internal weapons bays with 12 x medium-range high maneuverability missiles, am I wrong?

You're right. The figure has the correct missile launch openings on the leg covers but Yamato probably left the "Little Rock" missiles inside since they were already present in the earlier releases. I wouldn't be surprised if the shoulder's opened to reveal the Kai's internal speakers too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renato Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Oh, that’s definitely the painted prototype. I know, my point was that it is unclear if the hinge is only on there because it is a prototype, or if the final product will keep it. I'm thinking that feature might remain on there just because the missile hatch is still there, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Technically speaking, masking out the eyes and then spraying this thing in red would be an easy and completely accurate custom. Hmmmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renato Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Technically speaking, masking out the eyes and then spraying this thing in red would be an easy and completely accurate custom. Well, I'm not very well versed in customization, but I have heard that the glossy finish of the VF-19 mold plus its tight tension points (e.g. the chest block locking onto the nosecone) leaves it prone to scratches and paint peeling. It might even be better to simply paint a couple of areas white on the body of the VF-19Kai, and do a couple of part swaps if you want a full red 19P.

Alex Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Yeah, but if it were really sprayed with...stuuuff....then it would have scratches in the real world too. Win! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenius Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 So they've molded in aspect's of the Kai's face into the clear panel eh? It looks great, if these weren't insanely expensive I'd buy one. I would have bought a 19F at that discounted price too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandman Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 What i don't understand is why they didn't just make the the front of the head removable and have the Kai's face underneath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VF5SS Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 The VF-19P doesn't have the Kai's face underneath its visor. It's some kind of collection of camera. http://macross2.net/m3/macross7/vf-19p/vf-19p-battroid.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xrentonx Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 The collection of cameras is much cooler. I love the mold on the 19P so far. I'll likely end up getting one and repainting it into something less offensive to my eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
