Kicker773 Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Have one of those so no need. JK A new version would be great I guess. Sucks for the ones who have the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Eh, I have the original, and my experience with it is exactly why I want a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErikElvis Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Well I just ordered a fire valk and sound booster. I never thought I would get one but after the last tme I watched 7 it has grown on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phalanix Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 (edited) Well I just ordered a fire valk and sound booster. I never thought I would get one but after the last tme I watched 7 it has grown on me. I was contemplating on one too, due to the HLJ sale, but came to the conclusion I still dislike the red colour and the clown-like face to spend the money. LOL funny enough, I have all the YF/VF 19 variants to date, except this. Just need this to complete the collection, but can't seem to bring myself to do it.

VF-18S Hornet Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 So I just got my 2nd 19F and while transforming the shoulders from the legs the whole shoulder cover popped off, not a big deal I just supered glued it back on but has anyone else had this problem? yeah I had that problem with the fire Valkyrie. It's made like the flaps on the1/48 VF-1, they pop off when you touch them wotng,but they pop back in. I try to avoid touching them during transformations.

I think he meant the entire shoulder pauldron. That also happened to me when I was transforming. I actually broke it but I managed to clip it back in with the broken part. And now it wouldn't come off even if I try to pull it out. It's like it glued itself back in magically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErikElvis Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 (edited) After thinking I would never get a Fire valk here it is in front of me. Have to say its alright. Just opened the 19F. Quite sweet as well. Now I just have to figure out the stand situation. Edited September 29, 2012 by ErikElvis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceCowboy Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Argh! Goddamnit so much Yamato sucks. Was transforming my YF-19 back into jet mode, and the arm breaks off at the shoulder. I wasn't even applying a lot of force or anything. I think it is all the twisting that is required of the arm to put it back into the right spot that did it. For all the complaints, the Bandai's feel much more stable. This type of stuff makes me want to sale off my whole Yamato collection. Even before this, since the legs aren't attached, they fell off all the time (but at least they were designed to), then in robot mode, his arms wouldn't even stay up. What a piece of crap. Such a waste of money. I can just see getting the VF-4, opening it, looking at it too hard, and an arm or a leg falling off. Gotta think if I want to save myself the pain of spending half a grand and watching it dissolve in my hands at the first touch. I've used tissues that are stronger than Yamato engineering.

jenius Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Are you talking about the old Macross Plus YF-19 or one of the newer VF-19 releases? If it's the older YF-19 toy there was a whole thread dedicated to limbs suddenly falling off on those toys. If it's on the newer releases then we may need to dust off our panic buttons.

Major Tom Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 To be fair that YF-19 is an old design. The new VF-19 kai and the later VF-19S & F are much more solid. There is rumour that Yamato will make the YF-19 ver3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firefox Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I took the advantage of the latest HLJ sale and got my VF-19S. After comparing both 19S and my YF-19, I'm convinced that Yamato should go for YF-19 version 2 run. May be called it VF-19A instead and make the scheme below, I'm sure there'll be lots of interest.

SpaceCowboy Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Sorry for posting in the wrong thread - it is easy to get confused between the minor revision numbers on all these toys (YF vs VF, etc - I didn't even realize there was a VF - they look very similiar to me). Yeah - it is the older YF-19 version. So the VF-19 is solid then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - it is the older YF-19 version. So the VF-19 is solid then? There have been no widepsread cases of breakage on the 19 that I'm aware of. The first release people didn't realize the upper thigh only clicked three times instead of four and people were forcing it (which is not the toys fault) and breaking it. Otherwise, except for the few of us Gerwalk fans who HATE the ankles inability to angle back as far as we like, my 19S has survived almost a year without any issues and my 19F seems just as solid. I tend to be Mr. Gentle though. Some of the transformation videos I see people make around here make me wince to watch. I also tend to think males don't realize that even when they think they're being gentle they're still being too rough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceCowboy Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 The problem I have with a lot of these transforming toys is some parts you need to be very gentle with, but other parts you must force or apply a fair amount of pressure to, or it won't move/go into place. I was transforming my VF-17 yesterday as well, back into fighter mode, and I was trying to lock the chest plate back in flush with the nose cone. After looking and moving parts around, I consulted the manual, and it didn't seem like there was anything to do other than push it in. :S I did it, but it scared the crap out of me. Luckily everything seems to be in place. It's also bad that Transformers tend to be really sturdy. I've only had one transformer in recent memory that broke unexpectedly. Anything else that broke was from childhood after lots and lots of play. So going from those to these "art pieces" is sort of a mental switch.

Archer Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Yeah, I know what you mean. I'm terrified when transforming Yamato valks. Make one little mistake, and you're little fortune goes to waste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mommar Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 (edited) I thought I was going to primarily leave this thing in Fighter because I like how the older model 19's look with the longer wings look but Battroid is looking damn good right now. Looking at those two Gerwalk photos it appears the Ankles are back a lot farther then is possible (without ruining them) on the 19S (possibly the F too?)
