[Checkmate!]

nobody has a YF-19 yet there? i'd love to see a review done by a GT member. I ordered mine from BBTS and they'll be shipping iton the 11th pa. hay.

Checkmate!
bro, i'll just wait for your reviews then. 2 more days to go for your YF-19 to get shipped.

and i can't afford a P9000+ toy. that's why i still don't have this YF-19. all i have is the Hasegawa 1/72 Valkyrie YF-19 Model Kit. hehehe. ;D

looking forward to your review, bro.

nice, hikaru! how is it?

im curious on the feet - they look somewhat loose and too thin for me.

[hikaru]

The feet dont bother me that much I think Yamato really did a good job on making this YF-19 proportioned in all mode. Specially that YF-19 has a lot of anime magic in it's transformation. I really liked the toy you can do a lot of crazy position with it. Just don't try to turn it upside down because the chest does not lock into position in gerwalk and batroid mode.

Here's the issues that I found.
1. One of the joint in the right shoulder is a bit loose.
2. The struts of the landing gear on the feet are not straight when deployed.
3. The gunpod is not straight when attached in fighter mode.

I think the gunpod problem is fixable the problem is that the handle is to thin. I dont plan on fixing the landing gear, because that would require me to drill the metal part in the landing gear.

All in all it's really worth the price even with problems that I found. But If you're planning on getting one, I suggest you wait for the second release. I have heard that all those issues will be fixed on the second release.
