Re: Macross Toy Reviews
Nice review on the 19Kai. I pretty much went the exact same route as you for this one. Have much the same thoughts on it as well. I have to admit that while I immediately liked the heft of it (after being a bit disappointed with how light the SV-51 felt compared to the VF-1s), oddly despite the loud red colour, the fighter mode seemed kind of plain to me
Maybe you're right and it's the lack of panel lining. Compared to the 19S it does lack for tampo details.
Having said all that, this really is a fighter that begs to be put in batdroid mode; particularly with the Sound Boosters. It means breaking my general rule of fighter mode only but this is one nice looking robot.
Now however, I'm also looking longingly at the 19S as my fighter versioin of the VF-19. All in all, the Fire Valk is a solid release and enough to get me stoked for more - what are your thoughts on the upcoming (but even more pricey) VF-17?
