Macross Plus will never be complete without the eternal Rivalry of YF-19 with YF-21 thus lo and behold! YF-21 is getting their Chogokin treatment by Bandai that doesn't lack any oomph compared to YF-19 either! Scheduled for June 2024 release, Chogokin YF-21 will be sold for 38500 Yen Price tag.
Based after real life F-22 Raptor, YF-21 proves to be a worthy opponent for YF-19 with Top of the line Valkyrie Fighter tech along with advanced Neural Input control scheme. Despite the end result of the test for these two units, both YF-21 and YF-19 do still end up as the Elite Valkyrie Fighters for UN Spacy Top Tier Pilots. The Chogokin version of this particular guy apparently cost way more than YF-19 by roughly 150%. Probably this is because YF-21 transformation gimmick is rather complex as the Battroid had rather curvy form while the Fighter mode still able to maintain the sleekness of a Jet fighter. I would probably have gotten YF-21 If i had preordered DX Chogokin YF-19 back then but regardless I will still be eager for the VF Hi-Metal should Bandai ever released one.
