hmmm... looks like a bootleg for me... no Big West logo. and i don't think they will use Macross Zero box design for this baby.

well, it could be a prototype box - considering it uses the VF-0A colors.
the red just "burns" too much, there seems to be a misprint on the "Battroid" and theres no "big west" logo.

You can't really "bootleg" something that's not released in the Market yet. ;D The 19 in the link I posted is most likely to be a gift. Toy companies usually give gifts to retailers which they can use to display in their store. In this case, the owner of that 19 must be someone close to Yamato. These gifts are usually received by the stores within a few weeks or days of the toy's official release. @v2assault: The "Battroid" print on the box is not a misprint. If the image had better lighting, the "Battroid" and "Gerwalk" print should be the same level. The "Fighter" print was only slightly moved to the bottom so as not to cover up the nose on the YF-19 fighter print. Edit In: Here's the same box with adjusted brightness.

Here's the review: www.macrossworld.com/macross/toys/YF-19_Review/YF-19_review.htmLooks good Sadly the diecast parts are just the hip bars and landing gears, and the gunpod seems to be off-center in jet mode and Isamu is missing his feet. But the rest of the toy seems to be a major improvement over the original 1:72. Gold

i'm a bit disappointed with the off-center gunpod. rest of the toy looks sweet though.
