HG VF-19 Custom Fire Valkyrie with Sound Booster “Macross 7” Bandai Hobby HG 1/100 Scale Kit

“Macross 7” celebrates its 30th anniversary in 2024, and now the VF-19 Fire Valkyrie with its large reinforced Sound Booster weapon gets a new HG-series model kit release from Bandai! Basara Nekki’s ride adopts a three-step replacement transformation (shortcut change) that simplifies the transformation sequence by using replacement parts; the ease of assembly, wide range of motion, and sophisticated form unique to the HG series are preserved, too. It can easily transform into all three forms — Battroid, Gerwalk and Fighter — and the elimination of complex structures helps achieve a new dimension of movable performance. You can reproduce the expanded state of the speaker on its shoulders with parts replacement, and telescoping movable gimmicks in various parts are used. Its large reinforced weapon, the Sound Booster, is included, and can be combined with the Fire Valkyrie; it can also be installed in fighter form as a gimmick original to this model! The opening and closing of the mask can be reproduced by replacing the face parts; the canopy, which uses polarized molding, can be opened and closed. The included “namer”stickers are extremely thin but have excellent concealment properties; the inside of the sound booster and the shoulders are made of plastic seals that have a three-dimensional feel thanks to a metallic layer sandwiched between them.
