Macross PLUS 1/60 Perfect Transformation YF-19 25th Anniversary Model (Completed)
By jykwan | August 23, 2008
The Macross YF-19, supposedly an experimental fighter in the Macross PLUS series before it became mass produced in Macross 7 and renamed the VF-19. The YF-19 is the earliest VF(Variable Fighter) that seemed to look properly good compared to it’s predecessors at it’s time. Although at first glance it seems rather bare with not much armaments except for its Gatling Gun Pod which most VFs have, it is actually quite heavily equipped based on specifications (mahq.net specs on YF-19). What i got here is the 25th Anniversary version, which the only difference is the sleek black colour instead of the white or beige colour from the original release.

The box set allows people to open up and have a glance at what the model looks like
I have 2 set of pictures here, 1 is from me and the other is from HobbySearch. I got these pictures because the pictures i took are not that nice i must admit, and boy taking pictures with a hold and shoot type of camera is not easy.
These are the pictures i took
front view of Fighter mode
rear view of fighter mode
Front view of Gerwalk mode
Rear view Gerwalk mode
Battleroid front view

Perhaps i should say that although it may feel nice to get this model, i realize one thing which i find it problem for me. The transformation manual book is in japanese and i don’t know how to read japanese, so it took me quite a long time to figure out how to get the fighter mode into gerwalk and battleroid and vice versa. The model is not all that solid too so be careful if you try to unlock things from their positions.
