Scyla Posted January 6, 2014 Posted January 6, 2014 VF-19P is probably based on the VF-19F and not on the VF-19A. VF-19 Kai (Fire Valkyrie) however is probably based on a VF-19A but heavily customized and it's one of a kind. I've chosen the P because it is the only M7 variant of the VF-19 that has the ventral fins, the canards and the same wing design as the VF-19A (the VF-19K is missing the ventral fins). Even the shoulders could be the same if they where drawn in the same universe since the P doesn't have the speaker modification. The speakers we've saw in the OVA could've been attached to any other variant of the VF-19. However according to the M3 the P is a bit shorter then the A.

Mommar Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Holy crap, a lap full!!! I wonder how they're going to change the color more? Also... it's getting close to finally being here!!!! There does appear to be a bit of gloss on that thing though.
Chronocidal Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Definitely a gloss on the prototype, but it's a lot more muted on the tampoed copies. Looking great so far.
David Hingtgen Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Overall color looks worse IMHO, almost looks "greenish" to me. Should have left it as it was a few months ago. Smaller things----canopy lighter but still ridiculously dark. Grey parts----a touch lighter than before? But still too blue. Despite the "19" being printed on the shoulders, upper intake striping still missing.
close313 Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 If i only had money to get 3 just like that *dreams*
AlphaOne Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 I'm hoping to see more pics of this soon…looking good so far. I would like to see some comparison pics between the sample color and an anime frame's example.
Reïvaj Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 I kind of prefer the prototype colour but never mind, I still love what I see.
aaajin Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Looks good. Gonna grab one for the fighter mode leg missiles scene & leave the 1st edition in battroid.
Chronocidal Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 I don't think the color is greenish so much as they're picking up the green from the guy's pants, but who knows.
aaajin Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 I kinda... Like.... The.... Gloss.... yeah, reminds me of the gloss that we see on YF-19's body when it went trough the fold/worm hole from planet Eden to Earth.
PsYcHoDyNaMiX Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 I'm one of the few who have been saying this whole time... that gloss ftw! Even in the scene where Guld realizes he was wrong and thinks he just killed off Isamu. The bottom of the YF-19 glimmers/reflects/flashes light twice. Sorry, but I'm too lazy to look up the screen shots, lol.
YF-29 Durandal Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Judging from this image the YF-19 should really be glossy-glossy.
MacrossJunkie Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Overall color looks worse IMHO, almost looks "greenish" to me. Should have left it as it was a few months ago. Smaller things----canopy lighter but still ridiculously dark. Grey parts----a touch lighter than before? But still too blue. Despite the "19" being printed on the shoulders, upper intake striping still missing. 100% agree. I'm hoping the colour-balance on the photo is just off or that the monitor I'm using at work just has crappy colour accuracy. That just looks way too whitish and the feet are practically purple. Not sure what they're thinking about the canopy either...
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Just to clarify, the yf-19 in middle of the photo is the T-2 prototype T-3 is the one in Mr. K's hands as well as the one in his lap closest to you.
ChaoticYeti Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 (edited) Some of you guys are impossible. It looks great. I can't imagine them sitting back and dicking with the color to make it inaccurate after they purposefully went back to change colors after online complaints. Looks like a cellphone shot in an office lit situation. Hard to judge color accuracy. It does look pretty. I'b be up for some semigloss. Isamu does see his own reflection in it when he puts his hand on it for the first time. The one he is holding seems to be the newest iteration. It is lighter than the one on his knees.

Ignacio Ocamica Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Looks great to me!! Hope the final color pleases the majority
AlphaOne Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Of the three, I'm digging the one on the bottom the most.
close313 Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 (edited) The middle one looks like it just woke up after a night of partying hard. Edited January 7, 2014 by close313
aaajin Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Which one is the latest? The top one? Chris Both except the middle one
YF-29 Durandal Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Feet should be dark gray and canopy should be light blue. The rest should be the color of custard.
derex3592 Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Looks great to me!! Hope the final color pleases the majority It won't .....LOL ...not around here..
Ignacio Ocamica Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 It won't .....LOL ...not around here.. Well if not the majority, at least a significant number of people
aaajin Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 It won't .....LOL ...not around here.. LoL, remembered the days when Graham would feed us with pre-production photos from Yamato and everyone would be growling on how the colors don't match the anime, landing gear make the plane droopy, plane too fat, battroid too skinny etc2... crowd here is hard to please. but hey its actually a good thing!
derex3592 Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 ahhh the good old days..."OMG PANIC BUTTON NOOOOOW!!!..the gunpods crooked"!!!"
aaajin Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 ahhh the good old days..."OMG PANIC BUTTON NOOOOOW!!!..the gunpods crooked"!!!" haha, been away from the boards for almost 7 years. Its nice to see that the layout was changed, but I guess certain things never change : Our love for Macross & the mass hysteria when a pre-production sample pics are out!
CoreyD Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 I have to say, I do find the "freak-out" to "I love it" prototype to purchase cycle highly amusing Also, I'm very much looking forward to this valk arriving on my doorstep.
Reïvaj Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Does this look good enough for you, you bunch of whiners?
