About product

1:72 YF-19 Battroid Macross Plus - humanoid mode in plastic

The kit captures the YF-19 machine in the so-called battroid mode, that is in a stance reminiscent of an infantryman. It is not a convertible model of the aircraft - the mold is developed directly for this form, so the figure has the right proportions and does not have to hide mechanisms for transformation inside it. The Japanese company Hasegawa has worked it in 1:72 scale, molds the parts in several colors and deals with the joints by means of polyethylene bushings, thanks to which the model can be set in poses.

The real subject

The YF-19 is a prototype variable fighter from the animated series Macross Plus, released in 1994. The story follows the contest of two competing prototypes and a test pilot who flies one of them on the edge. The design of the machine with its forward-swept wings and prominent head is among the best known in the whole brand, and in battroid mode it looks unmistakable: a slender waist, massive shoulders and a shield on the forearm.

Building and painting tips

The multicolored plastic allows a handsome result to be reached even without an airbrush. Check the joints right after snapping them together - if a bushing lets a little play through, a drop of thin superglue on the mating surface will help. The white surfaces will gain depth from dark emphasis of the engraved lines, while the visor and the energy elements will come to life from a gloss coat. The position of the figure is fine-tuned at the end, ideally on a base.

Who the kit is for

  • Fans of the Macross Plus series and its variable fighters
  • Modelers who collect mecha in 1:72 scale
  • Builders who are comfortable with movable joints and a build without glue
  • Collectors who want the machine in humanoid rather than aircraft mode

The model is sold as a set of parts; you have to build it, and paint it if you wish, yourself.

No. The mold is intended for humanoid mode; the aircraft form cannot be assembled from it.

The assembly is handled by snapping together; use glue at most for stiffening the joints.

Yes, the joints are movable thanks to polyethylene bushings.
