The YF-19 is one of two series of fighters the transforms with the cockpit upwards instead of the classic downwards(The other is the VF-19). For any VF exept the VA-3 and VB-6, you have to be trained to quick swings and quick tranformation.
as much as ive always wanted one, that thing looks AND sounds like its destined to break during transformation. you look like youre sweating bullets the whole time.
i want one too. i bot my roy fokker 1st gen valkyrie about 23 years ago and while it has similar mechanics, it is not even remotely close to being this difficult.
my 3rd gen alpha fighers are also complex but smooth. the one that i did break was the mospeada cycle - if i had followed the directions!!!!! but no!!!!!! oh well.
and yes - not for kids. my son wants them because of tranformers but nope - mine!!! get away!!!
+_+ I dont trust my self separating the front and rear fuselage looks painfull might break the tab off during the process... Ill just leave it in fighter mode @_@
wow as a kid this would have probably make me pass out ^^, we only had the basic transformers, i dont like the designs of these as much but the mechanics are brilliant
Holy Shit that must have took alot of stress for the first time to figure that out. When I get the Blue version, I will thank you for helping me with that.
Dude. Thank you for posting this. I bought the VF 19 over the weekend and had ZERO idea how to convert it....and after watching this I see that there was zero chance I would have figured it out. You're a life saver!
Whered you get the shirt?

The VF-14 also hinges it's cockpit upwards. It mounts to the back of the fighter in Battroid mode.

So does the VF-25 and VF-27.

That's true about the VF-25 and VF-27. I haven't paid as much attention to these newest VF's until just recently.

Cool toy, I'd love to have it, but part of the transformation is inaccurate to the animes, just thought I'd point it out.

Excellent video. I don't have one, but it helps me to realize that complex that it is the YF-19 trasformation.
And it is supposed that all that must to happen in less than one second! XD

Your three YF-19 videos were very informative, thank you for posting them.
I've recently purchased a YF-19 myself, still waiting for it to arrive at the time of this writing, though.
It would be interesting if you could perhaps review the toy, as well?
