Knight26 Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 yeah that is my issue, she agreed to let me get the YF-19 next year, but that blue is just awesome, ugh, why do I have to be a responsible dad?!...
grymg Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Even if the VF-19 was marked down to $100 I wouldn't get it, my sights (and money) are all locked on the YF-19 much like everyone else.
mechaninac Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 If they had the F model for near the same discount, I'd jump on it; I already have the S, and couldn't care any less for the Fire Valk.
Scream Man Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Id go for it if they had the P. I regret not grabbing that.
technoblue Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Id go for it if they had the P. I regret not grabbing that. The P scheme is nice. I wish it also came with a Zolan gummy pilot as an alternate to the not-quite-Basara gummy.
Scream Man Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 yeah i'd agree with that. I was going to repaint mine into a VF-1S skull scheme.
ChaoticYeti Posted September 14, 2013 Posted September 14, 2013 (edited) 19s finally arrived. Other than a slightly loose codpiece, everything is perfect. glad I grabbed him up. Edited September 14, 2013 by ChaoticYeti
Loop Posted September 14, 2013 Posted September 14, 2013 I have a loose cod piece on one of my VF-19F's, I never really looked into how to tighten it up yet. It was the only one that had that problem out of 8 19's that I own.
ChaoticYeti Posted September 14, 2013 Posted September 14, 2013 It's not that bad. I put a small dab of pure silicone grease in the hinge. Stays up without issue now.
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted September 14, 2013 Posted September 14, 2013 I have a loose cod piece on one of my VF-19F's, I never really looked into how to tighten it up yet. It was the only one that had that problem out of 8 19's that I own. Loop, you have 8? that's insane.. i hope you're getting doubles of the yf-19, i definitely am!
Loop Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 Yeah I have 2x 19P's 2x 19Kai's, 3x 19-F's, 2x 19S's - That actually ='s 9
Chronocidal Posted September 16, 2013 Posted September 16, 2013 Yeah, I felt the need to double dip on them all too, but I wish I'd gotten a spare F in hindsight, just to have one to customize into a Max 19S.
barurutor Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 It's not that bad. I put a small dab of pure silicone grease in the hinge. Stays up without issue now. I tried doing this on my VF-19S but the codpiece still folds down after some time, any suggestions?
Reïvaj Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 I tried doing this on my VF-19S but the codpiece still folds down after some time, any suggestions? After reading this the blue pill comes to mind
YF-29 Durandal Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 I got my VF-19S from HK Collectibles for about $138 iirc but the price on the VF-19F is/was ridiculously high.
Scream Man Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Back in September I said if i got the 19P I'd do a Skull 2 scheme. Well, I got it, so:
xrentonx Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Oh my...huuuuuurggh! So jealous! It's amazing
Reïvaj Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Wow, painting that must have been tough! What do you mean, Mommar?
Gakken85 Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) woops Edited January 10, 2014 by Gakken85
Mommar Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 What do you mean, Mommar? Aren't the glossy valks harder to keep paint adherence?
PsYcHoDyNaMiX Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) Excellent! Aren't the glossy valks harder to keep paint adherence? Could always rough up the surface with some light grit sand paper. Edited January 10, 2014 by PsYcHoDyNaMiX
Scream Man Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 nah I just painted it. Sticks fine, though it rubs in a few places.
lancalot Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 very nice scream man .... looks heaps better then the orig! ..just love it
Renato Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Wow! That looks incredible. Now I want another P to do up in that scheme!
Kelsain Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 YOWZA. I envision a run on the remaining P's in the near future...
Falcon Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Looks amazing... so tempted to try a custom of my own- except I'm always worried I'll stuff it up. Can't afford to make mistakes when you only have one.
MacrossJunkie Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Awesome custom paint job, Scream Man. I love it!
