Actually there is no details of it at the moment except for the CAD drawings. But by looking at the 1/48s and 1/60 VF-0S, and if yamato follow that path, diecast could be very minimal.

mmmmmmmm. looks "clean"... but the gerwalk mode still looks odd.

[matttracker]

Very nice! Can't wait to save up and buy him. Any idea on the SRP, estimated? Thanks!

[mojacko]

Here are the colored proto-types from Otaru Ikari of Robot-Japan:

Huwaw!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What would the SRP (in Petot flease?) He is very, very nice!!!!

[V2]

fighter and battroid look pretty well "represented".

gerwalk still looks awkward... seems like they still need to improve how to hide the battroid's chest while the arms are out.

still, its the best representation compared to the old one.

nice looking YF-19. i'm a fan of this valkyrie since Macross Plus. want to have one. ;D

have some questions though. can you guys tell me what's the dimension of this "1/60" YF-19 in inches/cm? and what's the difference from the normal "1/60" VF-1series valkyries? i heard that YF-19 is the biggest valkyrie. is there a big difference? and any news for the 1/60 YF-21?

TIA.

Look at the GERWALK line art bro.... the 19 does have the chest slightly lifted to make way for the shoulders.

@no3ljm :

The YF-19 is a relatively larger Fighter than the VF-1. About 4meters bigger.

At 1/60 Scale, the YF-19 is going to be about the same size as the 1/48 VF-1.

i heard that YF-19 is the biggest valkyrie. is there a big difference? and any news for the 1/60 YF-21?

Here are the most common Valkyries in the Macross Continuity, and their length in fighter mode. The YF-21 Sturmvogel is the biggest.

VF-1x = 14.23m
VF-0x = 18.69 m
VF-11x = 16.02 m
VF-17x = 16.13m
YF-19 = 18.62 m
YF-21/VF-22 = 19.62m
VF-19A = 18.62m
VF-19F/S = 18.47

As far as a 1/60 YF-21, I'm betting Yamato wants to see how successful the YF-19 will be first.

I hope this helps. ;D
