You have to be careful when putting the toy on a surface and I usually leave it upside down with the antenna retracted to minimize the risk of breaking them. The tail winglets do not come off like the canards on the VF-19. The underside is simple, with only some holes to accommodate the attachment parts. As expected after looking at the previous Valkyries earlier. The lights on the wing roots have clear parts on them, and the wing tips have painted lights as well. Here’s a closer look at the details on the booms. It’s not made of soft plastic so one should be careful when handling it. The antenna can retract completely into the body. The mounting pegs for attaching the Booster to the Valkyrie are folded down flush with the surface but there are extra sliding hatches which seem a bit superfluous. The camera/sensor uses clear green and red parts, with silver painted details underneath the clear green dome. It’s a fairly detailed piece with painted and printed areas especially at the front of the booms/twin fuselages. There is no way to support the Sound Booster as it does not have any landing gear and I don’t have a compatible stand. You get the Sound Booster itself, a pair of attachment parts and a pilot figure. The packaging follows the same style as the other Valkyrie releases by Yamato, and there is a lot of empty space in it. The box is as large as the VF-19’s but slightly thinner. That alone should be a hint that this add-on isn’t exactly worth paying so much for. ![]() First things first: it’s a ridiculously overpriced add-on, retailing at 9800 yen.
