The YF-19 was primed. Just two spots (in the intakes) that need fixing. Everything else looks great!

Absolutely loving this Mike - that thing is a beast!

As much as I'm not really into Manga, Gundam and Japanese Animation in general (well maybe asides from Akira and the original Transformers) I have to say I really do like the look of these Macross Fighters - you might even convince me to build one lol!

Thanks guys! Good luck finding them Stuart. They're not easy kits to get, especially here in the States.

Exactly! They go for stupid prices on Ebay. If I ever go to Japan, it's the Macross jets that would break my bank.

Gluing the first engine pod on. They needed to be attached now so that I don't mess up the paint work later. They take some work to get them attached correctly.
