It really is a gorgeous plane, one of the sleekest in the entire Macross Universe. I personally like the Battroid mode due to its very unique look. The juxtaposition between its sleek fighter mode and beefy Battroid mode is simply amazing.
Great Review! Very Helpful! You definitely covered most of the issues I faced when transforming them. I was able to figure out the issue with the knees when they are contained in the compartment during Fighter mode. It seems that the knee joints can be snapped further into the upper leg.
General Galaxy is a company founded by a Zentradi senior officer. The inertial vector control of the Quadelunn-Rau suits was adapted for use on the YF-21
You, my friend, have a rockin review. There are definitely the plusses and minusses (if those are such words) to these Yamato figures. 80% improvement over their very first die-cast crappers but still not entirely without their frustrations. :) Thanks for sharing!
Love the fighter mode and now seeing it on video, GERWALK & Battriod are actually much nice then the photos I'd seen before lead me to believe. The stand is a lot better then the SV-51's which as you know is solid black, give me clear one every time.
It is in HD. When HD videos are first uploaded, they show a lower res version first, and once the HD is encoded they show the option for that. the HD is now available by clicking the HD button above. Atom usually does Macross stuff, but I got dibs on anything from Macross Plus. ;-) Josh
The plane was meant to mimic the Northrop YF-23 Black Widow II stealth fighter prototype plane. The battroid mecha bot bits definitely have a distinctive curvy aesthetic to them that differentiates them from the original SDFM Valks. But I don't think it was because of alien ancestry. I think Kawamori-sempai just wanted to go with a new, swoopty style, because it's one that he has stuck with ever since (except for the VF-0 Phoenix).
@deadpool1102 I got one for $175 (shipping included) about a year ago on eBay. If you are patient, you can find one for the right price or just look out for sales from the import toy sites.
What music did you use for the opening... for some reason it sounded familiar, but for the life of me, I have no idea why or where I heard it before. Can you tell me what title it is and who sang it?
Damn, that's a sleek looking plane. I loved Macross Plus, and was obsessed with the yf-19 and 21.. but the original 1/72 yamato really was a let down, with the chubby look in fighter mode..but this version...WOW!
@nathanaelgreenaway True true. As of my last time posting. I have spent $2200 on a bunch of 1/48 models and accessories. I still need some stealth super and strike parts. I couldn't find a super stealth for a reasonable price and I've just been putting off hunting down those extra pieces.
@WarhawkLegend69 I would definitely get the VF-11B. It's been getting positive reviews. Easier to transform and pretty much no qc issues. The cheapest I've seen it is on eBay for $180 total from an overseas seller. I would buy it, but I have other commitments right now. Got legal problems with my ex and our newborn son, so I gotta hire a lawyer to fight for my rights. Wish me luck!
hey bro help me with making my choice you like this one orrr the vf-11b orrr the 19 double nuts version the best let meee know and put why if you dont mind
no way. cuz I have searched on ebay and only found a couple for at least $200. after all I'm not made out of money... but I would gladly buy this one for at most $170 like you said.

Actually the fast pack on the plane are the shields in battloid mode same as in the movie. When Goldman removed the limiters for safety reasons, you should watch the movie again and you'll see why.....MACROSS PLUS the movie.

One of the sexiest ever VF designs, so utterly wonderfully improbable

your video is the inly one i have found that shows how to attach the stand adapter to the body ! thanks :)

I hope these things are still around a couple years from now when i have a job were i cann afford to pay 300 dollars for a a toy.
How did it go man? Did you ever afford one? I just got into Macross Plus and I love Guld and the YF-21 lol
@ nope 😂

この仕組み考えた人天才だよ
that's a sick model.
I got the yamato VF from the movie macross zero.
great review man.
josh kinda surprised it wasn't atom that reviewed this. By the way guess you didn't use the HD camera?
thanks very much for the response bro, and good your with your situation as well
Is the design on this meant to mimic a hybrid of a Veritech/Zentradi Armor? Seeing Guld's half Zentradi ancestry....

I found mine for a $100 Canadian when the dollar was at par at a comic book store last one on the shelf.

Aaaahhh, Thank you for clearing that up!

hey i am wondering if there is an english version of this show
could you do a review of the 1/72 scale
there seems to be an (audio) hum on the background, sounds a bit creepy. though it stops around 22:47...
El problema era según lo que entendí los anclajes de la parte inferior, aunque yo tuve uno y encajan bien con el cuidado suficiente.
WHERE CAN I FIND A FAST PACK FOR MY YAMATO YF-21 1/60 SCALE?!?
This one is very hard to come by nowadays. Hope Arcadia does one or Bandai actually releases their own.

What song was that, at the start of the video?

Yeah, but that's the price we pay for finally getting decent transformable macross products that look sick in all three transforms!
